After more than a year of renovations, the five-star Hideaway Beach Resort & Spa at Dhonakulhi in the Maldives has reopened with a brand new wellness facility called the Hideaway Spa & Beauty Palace.

The property, located on the crescent-shaped island called Dhonakulhi in the Haa Alifu Atoll in the Indian Ocean, was expanded to include 50 more villas – taking the total number to 103 villas. The former Island Hideaway Spa Resort & Marina was also renamed after the upgrades were complete.

The Hideaway Spa & Beauty Palace is a 12-treatment room spa featuring a steamroom, mani-pedi stations, relaxation rooms and a hairdressing salon. The design of the spa incorporates water paths, sand floors, silk fabrics, plus teak and coconut timber furnishings. Products at the spa are supplied by Natura Bissé.

The resort, which features its own harbour, includes four restaurants and bars, a nightclub, the largest rum and whiskey map of the Maldives and a diving school.
