This gem of a hotel lies on the private island of Dunikolhu in Baa Atoll, whose idyllic and uninterrupted ‘do-not-disturb’ theme of tranquillity will immediately cocoon you within a world of beaches of fine white, sun-warmed sand-lapped by crystal lagoon waters rich in amazing marine life. Informal in mood yet stylish in those important small details, Coco Palm is a medium-sized Maldives retreat where the man-made and Nature both unite in a beguiling combination of a Robinson Crusoe lifestyle with air-conditioned comfort and pampered care. The magic of the setting certainly requires no second invitation to unwind - and within a day or two you’ll find the tide more important than the time, and the present mattering far more than the past or future. . . There’s a choice of 84 Beach and Deluxe Villas (all beachfront), 12 Lagoon Villas and two luxurious Lagoon Palace Suites. Beach and Deluxe Villas boast private garden bathrooms with shower (and sunken bath in Deluxe Villas). Lagoon Villas and Suites are built above the water and have luxury bathrooms with a complete ‘outdoor’ atmosphere and total privacy, deluxe spa bath and shower. All accommodation features king-size bed (four-poster, except in Beach Villas), air-conditioning, overhead fan, private terrace (with plunge pool in Deluxe and Lagoon Villas), sitting-area (sitting-room in Suites), minibar, tea/coffee-maker, safe and hairdryer. Lagoon Villas also have CD player, as do Palace Suites, which additionally offer television and video.
