Cocoa Island, Maldives

Sister hotel of the world-renowned Parrot Cay in the Turks & Caicos Islands, Cocoa Island Resort Maldives is a new private island located in the South Male Atoll. The 23 contemporary timber over-water suites and villas echo the traditional Maldivian boats used by the local fishermen and sit directly over the waters of the lagoon, all with their own private sun-decks, magnificent views and steps into the gin-clear waters. Experience life as close to the water as you can get in simple but elegantly styled rooms furnished in a contemporary style with a hint of South India from the fabrics and colours. Cuisine is a blend of Indian and Sri Lankan specialising in locally caught fish and seafood, served in the Ufaa restaurant.
