Set to open at the end of the 2018 year, the Hilton Curio Collection resort is currently under development in the beautiful Emboodhoo Lagoon in the Maldives. This resort will join the large collection of hotels and resorts already owned by the famed Hilton brand and is said to be very large itself, with a total of 198 guest rooms, beach villas, and overwater villas being built. In addition, you'll want to note that this property will be a part of a much larger property which is being titled the CROSSROADS project. This means that both the land based and overwater rooms will be just one part of a larger integrated resort, the first of its kind. This integrated resort is currently being detailed as a leisure and entertainment resort destination and will combine both relaxation with exciting everyday tropical island activities that will span a total of 9 small islands.

Though an exact opening date is not yet known, we will update with booking information once we are informed.

Hilton overwater villas

At the moment, there isn’t much information regarding both the land based rooms and the overwater villas outside of a few design pictures. From a picture however, we can tell that the overwater villas will have some sort of outside private deck and that they will be evenly spaced from one another. It also appears that to reach the very first villa along the line, you’ll have to venture down a wooden boardwalk, which is typical of overwater resorts. Each and every overwater villa looks to have an uninterrupted lagoon view.

 

If you look at the picture at the very top of this news release, you’ll see what the overwater villas are stated to look like. It appears that there may be a few different overwater villa size options.


Resort features and amenities

As the resort is detailed to be on the large size, it can be easily expected to host a sizeable amount of features, amenities, and activity choices. As of now, we know the resort will grant guests access to a few different restaurants and bars, a beach club, various watersports, a cultural centre, a dive centre, a fitness centre, a few duty free shops, and an outdoor swimming pool. It also looks like the resort will be a family friendly resort with a kids club among the features list. Currently it is not known if any of the overwater villas will allow children to stay within. Adding to the long list of amenities is the inclusion of a 50 boat marina.

 

Conveniently, the resort will be just a 15 minute speedboat ride away from the Male International Airport. This is ideal for those who want to treat themselves to an Maldives tropical escape, but would rather skip the long transfers to and from the resort.

  1. We reviewed the choices here and didn’t see anything that looked affordable (cheap). We are looking for an over water room with all inclusive amenities so we can eat to much, drink to much and relax enough for 4 nights and 5 days. The issue has been finding a place in our “cheap” budget of 2300.00 for the accommodations plus about 400.00 for transportation to and from Male to the resort. Can you help?

    1. Michael,

      My top recommendation for an all-inclusive water villa in the Maldives is Meeru Island. They are one of the larger resorts and that allows them to offer very good rates and still keep a very high quality of service. The rates are different depending on the week or month you want to visit, so I’m not sure whether they fit your budget or not. If Meeru doesn’t fit your budget then you’ll probably have to settle for a resort that isn’t all-inclusive. Best of luck! -Roger
