Located in the Indian Ocean, the Maldives is considered part of South Asia. Known as the Republic of Maldives, the country is directly south of India and southwest of Sri Lanka. The Maldives is an archipelago that rests between the Arabian Sea and the Indian Ocean. Comprised of an estimated 1,200 islands, the Maldives is not completely occupied. Some areas are uninhabited, due to lack of resources or uncertainty regarding safety.A slender coral cay in the Raa Atoll, Dhigali Island is pure Maldivian bliss.
There are plenty of other stunning tropical locations around the globe - and some even much closer to home - so why the Maldives? "The most unique aspect of the Maldives is certainly the one island, one hotel concept," explains Richard. "Each resort is located on its very own private island, creating an exclusive and peaceful environment. The Maldives is also known for its lush natural surroundings and wildlife, with resorts being built in harmony with nature." To this point, many of the properties are very eco-friendly, with an emphasis in particular on preserving natural wildlife.
