Water Villas in the Maldives:
Though the concept of overwater bungalows or water villas, as they are referred to in The Maldives, didn't actually come from there, it is now the country most associated with them.
Resort owners in The Maldives were quick to realize that the waters surrounding their multi-island paradise were extremely well suited to the construction of water villas and so, construct they did - so much so that today the majority of the world's overwater bungalows/water villas are in the Maldives.
Most visitors to the islands, especially those on honeymoon or romantic getaways, now end up staying in one.
You also have a greater choice of water villas here therefore than anywhere else on earth, and competition between the resorts has led to very high standards.
Below you will find our choices for the best resorts with water villas in the Maldives but be aware that this list could have been much longer!
None of the resorts here will be cheap of course but all of the resorts we have listed will offer what we see as the best value, especially in terms of all-inclusive packages.
The majority of Maldives' island resorts can accommodate families & children though naturally, with it being synonymous with romantic escapism, most of the clientele will be adults.
The Best Overwater Bungalows with Private Pool in Maldives in 2023.
A classic feature of overwater bungalows is the private pool, most usually an infinity pool, on the terrace overlooking the ocean.
Some may consider this an unnecessary feature - a pointless extravagance - seeing as you probably have some of the world's most inviting waters just feet below you already.
The pool isn't trying to compete with the ocean though. The first thing a private pool has, which the ocean doesn't, is a raised view of the ocean. A lovely aesthetic that looks particularly good in photos.
The second is that no matter how private the section of the sea surrounding your bungalow may be it can never be fully secluded.
The private pool though is tucked away on the terrace, thereby hidden from the view of your fellow guests.
Here then are our choices for the best overwater bungalows & water villas with private pool in Maldives in 2023.
