Italian Grace in the Indian Ocean
Surrounded by shimmering turquoise waters and velvet white sands on the pristine private island of Maagau in the South Nilandhe (Dhaalu) Atoll, Baglioni Resort Maldives seamlessly blends authentic Italian grace with untouched tropical paradise. Designed with sustainable materials and delicate Italian artisanal finishes, the resort offers 85 bespoke villas nestled along the palm-fringed shoreline or poised on stilts directly over the crystalline Indian Ocean lagoon.
Guests indulge in masterfully curated Italian gastronomy at Gusto overseen by Executive Chef Gaspare Greco, live teppanyaki and fresh sushi over the waves at Umami, and oceanfront international spreads at Taste, accompanied by signature 19:02 Ferrari Trento sparkling wine aperitivo hours at the Pool Bar. Rejuvenation awaits at the open-air Baglioni Spa surrounded by lush jungle foliage, while the 5-star PADI dive center provides access to pristine coral reefs teeming with manta rays and sea turtles.
