When searching for your next vacation destination, there are several things to consider. Once you've decided to visit the tropics and more specifically the Maldives, it's then time to decide whether you'll want to stay at an overwater resort or one that specializes in land based rooms. If an overwater room is what you desire, you'll find lots of great 4 and 5-star resorts to choose from.
If you're looking to take things up a notch and book a room with a private jacuzzi, you'll still find some great selections. Below, we've complied a list of the best of the best, each featuring private jacuzzis along with several other luxury room amenities. In addition, the resorts below also offer great dining, activity choices and resort amenities that aim to impress.
Hi Roger, my fiance and I are looking to book an water villa for our honeymoon in August. There is such a huge choice. We are tossing up between Baros and Huvafen Fushi. We would like something ultra romantic and luxurious as we will be only going for 5 nights. Can you give your recommendation on the two above or suggest another resort that we might enjoy honeymooning at? Thanks in advance.
R&R,
Unfortunately I’ve yet to make it to either of those resorts (there are about 90 Maldives resorts with water villas), but I do know from studying the market for all of these years that those are two of the best in general, and the best for honeymoons. Baros is one of the original water villa resorts and it’s a bit closer to the airport than Huvafen Fushi, but both have been updated fairly recently. I’m sure either one would be amazing, and I’m sorry I couldn’t be of more help. -Roger
hello
could you advise about a luxurious 5* resort that offers overwater or beach villas with pools villas with pools that are completely private/secluded (not seen by anyone from outside). if all inclusive would be better thanks!
Lama,
I’m not aware of any Maldives resorts with 100% private pools, but I do know of some in Malaysia including this one:

As a Travel Agent, I recommend Baros Maldives Resort water pool villa.
Hi, I can’t see the name of W Resort & Spa. How do you rate this hotel as this property shows overwater villas with private pool
Ankit,
They refer to it as W Retreat and Spa, and it’s linked on our homepage along all the others. It’s definitely a 5-star resort with huge water villas and excellent service. -Roger
Hi Roger
Could you please suggest an over water villa resort in the month of November with open bathrooms, private jaccuzzi for the perfect honeymoon and which is not very expensive.
Hi Roger
Could you please suggest an over water villa resort/ hotel in the month of April (last week) with standard size rooms, open bathrooms, private jaccuzzi etc which leads to a super romantic getaway and which is not very expensive.
Neha,
Sorry I saw this late. These were the best Maldives deals for April, including a couple of really nice ones at appealing rates. Hopefully you can still get in on one of those. -Roger
halo. i am doing research for my annual holiday. May i know if there is a list of water-villa resorts with private pools which offer all-inclusive package? (inclusive of 3 meals and alcoholic drinks all day). I understand that lily beach resort offer that, may i know which are the ones offering too?
Dan,
I am not sure of the specific resorts with private pools that also do all inclusive, but I’m sure there are quite a few. You might check out the main article on Maldives all inclusive resorts and find ones you like. I’m sure at least a few of them have private pool villas as well. Good luck. -Roger
