Designed for guests to immerse in nature, the architecture of the water villas is inspired by the local environment itself, specifically by the Heron Birds local to the Maldives. Designed as a homage to these luck- bringing birds, the thatched roof has a tip that resembles the beak of the bird, and the composition is slightly slanted, to portray the heron bird dipping their head to catch fish in the water. The water villas are constructed in the traditional local thatched style, immersing guests in a truly Maldivian paradise. Each of the 60 villas offer guests total privacy, for time alone or with loved ones, in addition to their being natural hideaways in the most spectacular setting.
Each includes a private pool and wooden sunbathing decks while the Duplex Overwater Pool Villas and single- story overwater pool villas are set on stilts overlooking the clear turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean, with a choice of sunrise or sunset views.
Guests in the Beach Pool Villas and Duplex Beach Villa can step out directly onto the white sands of the beach, with exclusive access bringing nature right to the door. For more information, visit the website at jwmarriottmaldives.com or book your stay here.
