Hideaway Beach Resort & Spa, Maldives has once again affirmed its position as a beacon of luxury in the hospitality industry by winning the prestigious Haute Grandeur Award for 2023 for:

– Best Hideaway Resort (Global),
– Best Family Resort (Indian Ocean),
– Best Pool Villa Resort (Indian Ocean)
– and Best Family Villa (Indian Ocean) – Sultan Beach Residence with Sunset Pool.

These esteemed accolades recognise the unparalleled excellence and commitment to delivering exceptional guest experiences that the resort consistently demonstrates.

This year, one of the most special titles awarded to Hideaway is the ‘Best Hideaway Resort – Global’ title. The unique positioning of the island, in the Haa Alifu Atoll (north of Maldives), leaves the island untouched, undisturbed, and disconnected from the rest of the world in the best possible ways. The privacy, the quiet serenity, and the remarkably untouched waters and beaches add a certain attraction, in addition to the lush, thick vegetation of the island. The flora and fauna of the island are worth noting for any guest who visits.

Hideaway is famously known as a top-notch family resort. As one of the largest, most spacious resorts in the Maldives, with a relatively small number of villas, guests often feel as if they are on a private island experience whilst in their villa. As such, couples can stay as private and uninterrupted as they wish, and families can enjoy their boisterous, exciting family getaway – there is ample space for everyone. It is the ideal destination for families, offering an exceptional kids’ club and a wide array of family-friendly activities for children of all ages. Hideaway has always been at the forefront of delivering innovative, unique experiences for its guests, making it an exciting playground of fun all day round.

As a winner of the Best Pool Villa category, Hideaway shines as a resort that offers private pools and a common pool to all guests. Out of 12 beautiful categories of villas and residences, only the entry-level category does not have a private pool – but even for this, guests can use the family pool at Meeru Bar, and couples can enjoy the Infinity Pool at Sunset Pool Café.

The Signature Collection at Hideaway is a set of nine exclusive, super-luxury and spacious villas that debuted a few years ago, and have since been paving the way for innovative, luxurious, and comfortable stays in the Maldives. The accommodations within the Signature Collection are a true embodiment of luxury and sophistication. Each villa is meticulously designed to harmonise with the stunning natural surroundings of the Maldives while offering the highest level of comfort and indulgence. From private infinity pools to breathtaking ocean views, every detail is thoughtfully crafted to create an unforgettable retreat.

Unsurprisingly, the Sultan Beach Residence of the Signature Collection won Best Pool Villa Resort in the Indian Ocean. Designed with nods to traditional Maldivian royalty, it features unique personalised services including personal butler services available 24/7, an Anytime-Anything-Anywhere service, a senior private guide (Mr. Moodhu) for water excursions, and luxury amenities throughout. Every guest staying at any of these residences is made to feel like a Sultan or Sultana.

Complementing the opulent accommodations, the restaurants at the Signature Collection elevate dining to an art form. Culinary delights inspired by both local flavours and international cuisine take guests on a gastronomic journey. With world-class chefs curating exceptional menus, dining becomes an immersive experience, harmonising delectable flavours with the captivating ambiance of the Maldives.

With multicultural buffet restaurants, à la carte options, and exquisite bars, the options are limitless.

Speaking about these awards, Christophe Adam, the General Manager of Hideaway Beach Resort & Spa, said: “We are immensely proud and honoured to receive these prestigious Haute Grandeur Awards. They not only validate our commitment to excellence in luxury hospitality but also reflect the unique experiences we offer at Hideaway Beach Resort & Spa.

These awards are a tribute to our team’s relentless pursuit of perfection and our commitment to ensuring that every moment at Hideaway is an unforgettable experience.”
