There’s only one thing that’s more luxurious than a beach escape on a stunning private island, and that’s a beach escape on a stunning private island with your own private yacht to play with.
Oh, and did we mention the island was literally heart-shaped?
It’s all why the beautiful W Maldives is the latest resort to catch our eye for romantic escapes and the most luxurious of honeymoons.
At the W Maldives, you can stay on your own secluded island and charter a private yacht.
Gaathafushi Desert Island is the W Maldives’ very own private island, a quick speedboat ride away from the 5-star resort and a fully fledged tropical paradise where couples can enjoy the privacy of having an entire island, completely to themselves. It’s as intimate as a trip can get. Plus, fittingly for lovers, the island is heart-shaped.
The heart-shaped Gaathafushi island is a stone’s throw away from W Maldives
Views don’t get more breathtaking than 360-degree panoramic views of sea and sand that only an island can bring.
There, newlyweds can enjoy the romantic, unparalleled privacy of pristine white sand beaches, vibrant palm trees and dip in a turquoise lagoon, all to themselves, for a truly unforgettable getaway together.
You can stay on your own secluded island at Gaathafushi, the W Maldives’ very own private island.
Once you’re done exploring the island’s tropical playground of lagoons and beaches, you’ll retire to a luxurious signature W Bed under a romantic thatched roof where you’ll spend the night – but not before your private chef sets up your own exclusive candle-lit barbecue, of course.
You can charter the W Maldives’ yacht for a romantic dinner, a day of adventure or an overnight stay
To elevate your honeymoon or romantic trip even more, you can even book a trip on the W Maldives’ private yacht, ESCAPE. This exclusive 80-foot private motorsailer vessel was just added in June this year and features two luxury cabins complete with kingsize beds, a spacious sundeck, two outdoor seating areas and beautiful refurbished masts for you to set sail in style.
Explore the resort’s reef and meet the local marine life on a private yacht charter.
It’s available to charter, totally privately, for full or half day of adventures. So, whether you’d love to dive in and go snorkelling to discover the W Maldives’ spectacular house reef and marine life in the Indian Ocean, enjoy an overnight getaway unlike any other, or want to enjoy a romantic, private dinner under the stars with your own personal W chef, this is the way to do it in luxury.
Oh, and if you’re on the hunt for the dream luxury proposal location? A sunset champagne toast here in the Indian Ocean on your own private yacht might just be the world’s most perfect way to pop the question and make memories to last a lifetime.
Paradise awaits…
