Club Med – the original all-inclusive resort company – proudly announces the opening of Finolhu Villas, an exclusive resort on a private island paradise in the Maldives. This will be the newest addition to Club Med’s Villas & Chalets category, the most upscale accommodation selection within the brand’s portfolio, and as this resort has been designed with serenity in mind, it will be reserved for adult guests only.

Scheduled to debut on Jan. 31, 2015, just in time for a romantic Valentine’s Day getaway, Club Med Finolhu Villas will offer 52 exquisitely designed villas positioned overwater or on the beach for perfect views of the sunrise or sunset each day.

As the Maldives are repeatedly voted the world’s top destination for honeymooners, Club Med answers the demand for a new level of luxury with this new tranquil retreat. The superbly appointed villas will boast direct sea access, private pools and terraces and personal butlers to tend to every whim.

To ensure an indulgent escape guests will enjoy breakfast and afternoon tea served on their terraces, cinema movies under the stars and iPads to stay connected should the need arise. While keeping five-star accommodation at the forefront, the spacious villas have also been thoughtfully designed to elegantly blend in with their beautiful natural surroundings utilizing the highest standards of sustainability.

Spanning along 3,000 feet of private and pristine soft white beach, the Club Med Finolhu Villas resort will feature a sumptuous fine dining restaurant, Motu, as well as a pampering Club Med Spa by ILA offering organic treatments by the luxury British brand. Should couples wish to spend the day beyond their idyllic villas, the private island will feature a bar and main pool with live music, as well as a fitness center and retail boutique.

Watersports such as snorkeling and kayaking are included, and for an additional cost couples may enjoy activities such as scuba diving, jet skiing and parasailing or discover the Maldives by plane, boat or underwater through exclusive excursions such as sunset dining cruises and private tours with lobster lunch. Guests will also have complimentary access to Club Med’s Kani resort and all its facilities, which is only a five minute boat ride away.
