Soneva Gili Resort & Six Senses Spa in the Maldives Re-opens

Travel News Asia 17 June 2005

Soneva Gili Resort & Spa in the Maldives has re-opened. The resort had been closed since the 26 December 2004 tsunami, during which time it has undergone restoration and refurbishment, plus the addition of several exciting and unique features.

Opened in 2001 the Soneva Gili consists of 44 over-sized villas plus a new Private Reserve covering 1400 square metres.

The villas are crafted from natural materials, yet offer every creature comfort including a personal entertainment centre. For the ultimate privacy, seven Crusoe Villas and the Private Reserve are only accessible by motor boat. Mr and Ms Fridays add a personal level of anticipative service to the guest experience.

The resort also features an over-water Six Senses Spa, which offers everything expected, and some things unexpected; glass floor-panels beneath massage tables heighten the sensual experience, whilst a Maldivian sand massage is included in the vast menu of holistic wellness and rejuvenating treatments on offer.

Among the several dining alternatives, there is an over-water restaurant and lounge or guests may choose to enjoy a romantic moonlight dinner delivered right to the villa. Much of the produce is grown in the resort’s own vegetable garden.

Soneva Gili Resort & Spa is a fifteen-minute speed-boat ride from the Maldivian capital, Maléi, passing en route a string of islands, each surrounded by a turquoise lagoon. During this short journey, guests are invited to remove their shoes as they prepare to enjoy the Soneva lifestyle of 'No News – No Shoes'.

The Maldives is a paradise for underwater activities and the resort has its own fully equipped PADI diving school plus a variety of water sports.
