FIRST LOOK: Hilton Maldives Amingiri Resort & Spa

The world renowned Hilton Hotels and Resorts debuts its family-friendly, five-star private retreat, Hilton Maldives Amingiri Resort & Spa, on a lush tropical island in North Malé Atoll! Located just 20 minutes away from Velana International Airport (VIA), the all-pool villa resort highlights a mindful approach to gastronomy, holistic wellness, and exclusive amenities for travellers of all ages.

The resort boasts 109 beach and overwater villas, each complete with a private pool for a dip at any time of the day. Any lodging you choose at this resort comes with its own set of perks. The overwater pool villas located close to the reef offer tranquil calmness, endless ocean panoramas and spectacular views, while the beach pool villas nestled in beautiful landscaped hideaways offer enhanced privacy, and direct access to the resort’s pristine beaches.

The Amingiri Residence, an exclusive retreat on the island with its own private arrival pier, stands as the centrepiece of the island’s lounging options. This six-bedroom residence is built on a landscaped cove with uninterrupted views of the ocean and the exuberant Maldivian sunrise. With an abundance of well-designed spaces like a private gym and spa room, it is a luxurious haven for celebration travel, family milestones, and once-in-a-lifetime occasions.

Visit one of the three signature dining options at the resort based on your preference. Habitat offers all-day dining, where guests can savour Western, Italian and Asian flavours through the live-kitchens. Origin presents a mindful approach to dining by way of sustainable sourcing, aging and reduced waste. Beach Shack promises an elevated feet-in-the-sand experience, serving pizza fresh from the oven by the day and wonderful flame-grilled meat and seafood dishes for dinner under the stars.

Grab a drink at Eden, a bespoke champagne and gin bar where guests can discover curated and highly personalised rituals, or swing by the Aura Pool Bar, with the first of its kind Cocktail Lab dedicated to mixology in the Maldives. For a less (literally, but definitely not figuratively) intoxicating experience, visit the Sip Tea Lounge that celebrates global tea cultures with a modern-day twist, or enjoy a selection of freshly made, healthy beverages on the serene overwater deck of Skye.

Krakengiri, one of the largest kids’ clubs in the Maldives, offer creative daily activities for little guests, including beach games, pool time, and crafts. Teenage travellers can hang out at Re:Fuel, a rooftop lounge exclusively for them, where they can enjoy smoothies, shakes, and snacks in a laid-back atmosphere.

If you wish to restore your mind, body and soul, head over to Amangiri Spa for rejuvenating spa treatments and hammam rituals. The island also features a yoga pavilion, a 24-hour fitness centre, a salon and a grooming lounge, so guests can fulfil their every need. Resort wear and holiday essentials are available at the Giri Boutique, while a sparkling collection awaits at Loupe, the resort’s jewellery shop. Holiday moments can be captured at the photo studio, and if you’re feeling creative, you can express it with workshops led by the artist-in-residence at the art centre.

In addition to the amazing life onshore, guests are invited to make their discoveries offshore as well. The resort offers to take ocean lovers and adventurous souls to over 30 dive sites in North Male’ Atoll, including wrecks, where divers can swim alongside the biodiverse marine life the island nation is famous for. Snorkelling, paddle-boarding and a wide range of water-sports are also available, and guests can also embark on sunset cruises with the resort’s resident marine biologist.

Hilton Maldives Amingiri Resort & Spa is the fourth addition to the Hilton-family properties in the Maldives, after Waldorf Astoria Maldives Ithaafushi, Conrad Maldives Rangali Island, and Curio Collection by Hilton.

This family-friendly escape is designed to create everlasting memories, assuring unforgettable experiences for everyone.
