Condé Nast Traveler has announced the winners of its 2019 Hot List with LUX* North Male Atoll recognised as one of the world’s best new hotels.
The Condé Nast Traveler Hot List recognises the best hotels and cruises around the world that have opened in the past year and uncovers the top trends inspiring modern travellers. The list includes “definitive picks of the boundary-pushing properties” that “define why we travel now and where we are going next,” according to Melinda Stevens, Global Editor-in-Chief of Condé Nast Traveler.
LUX* North Male Atoll achieves this prestigious recognition in just two months since it opened its doors to guests.
“We are honoured to receive such a prestigious and important award. I am incredibly grateful to our team for the hard and dedicated work in consistently ensuring an extraordinary guest experience as well as continually raising the bar of innovation and our concept of a lighter and brighter holiday,” John Rogers, General Manager at LUX* North Male Atoll, was quoted in a statement, as saying.
A short transfer from the main Velana International Airport by speedboat, LUX* North Male Atoll is an intimate resort offering a visual feast of nautical forms and tones. It is a next-level resort that sweeps away the thatched-roofed Maldivian footprint of old with a dazzling paradise of penthouse villas and spectacularly designed spaces to play, relax and retreat. Harnessing the fresh vision of Singapore design house Miaja, each of the 67 double storey residences and rooftop features a private pool blending superyacht panache with a vibrant South Beach pulse with four elegant eateries and two bars.
For the first time in the Maldives, each residence is crowned with a magnificent private rooftop relaxing area. There’s a wealth of ways to relax or raise your game, and the invitations to adventure are endless. Guests will find two swimming pools, a translucent overwater LUX* ME Spa, world-renowned diving, high adrenaline water sports, private yacht voyages, tennis and beach volleyball courts. A uniquely exclusive paradise retreat — where breezy island living meets jet-set chic — LUX* North Male Atoll is luxury beyond boundaries.
