Our plane gradually begins to dip and two small
islands start to come into view. This already
feels like paradise and we haven’t even touched
ground. Neat rows of over-water villas line the
shore, the palm trees seem to sway in perfect
synchronization and the beaches have the whitest sand I’ve ever seen. Our plane gently glides
to the long walkway, where a group of team
members from the Conrad are waiting for us.
Welcomed with cold towels and friendly smiles,
it all sinks in. We really will be living inside a
screensaver for the next week.
Standing out as an iconic hotel, in a destination
surrounded by over the top properties, all promising that same tropical getaway, is no easy feat.
Yet somehow the Conrad Maldives seems to do
just that. So don’t worry, we tested the waters for
you, we tried the villas and we swam with the
turtles all so you could get an inside look.
