Taj Exotica Resort & Spa, Maldives

Remote island hideaway.

Set on Emboodhu Finolhu island in the Maldives, Taj Exotica Resort & Spa Maldives is surrounded by white-sand beaches and the turquoise waters of one of the region’s largest lagoons. The private island setting creates a relaxed escape shaped by overwater accommodations, open sea views, and a slower pace of island life.

Insider Tip

A night snorkeling trip to the Coral Garden is something you should not miss, you may just get lucky to see the glowing plankton and many other wonders of the underwater world.
