OZEN RESERVE BOLIFUSHI

The waterslides off the overwater villas deliver guests straight into the Indian Ocean, which sets the tone for this private-island, all-inclusive resort in the South Malé Atoll. Five dining venues, overwater spa pavilions, and a dive center keep you from noticing there's nowhere else to go. A Michelin Key resort, and a homegrown Maldivian one at that, holding its own against the global names that have long colonized this stretch of the Indian Ocean.
