Best Hotel In The World By TripAdvisor: Best Hotel On The Maldives Has Individual Over-Water Villas [Video]


The best hotel in the world, according to TripAdvisor, has been unveiled, and it’s at a place where there are private over-water villas above dreamy blue ocean waters. According to Metro, the best hotel topping the 2015 list is Gili Lankanfushi in the Maldives.

The 45 private over-water villas sit above a lagoon on the small island of Lankanfushi in the Malé Atoll. Each unit has a sundeck with roof terraces and daybeds. Bathrooms are beautiful, and villas also have outdoor private showers that overlook the lagoon.

Guests can visit the over-water spa, or the outdoor cinema room. Movies can be viewed indoors or outdoors. The hotel offers a cinematic feature twice a week.

Other activities everyone can enjoy as well, including deep-sea fishing and scuba diving. Tennis courts are on-site for those wanting to get out and play some tennis.

The Daily Mail shares in its report on TripAdvisor’s top hotel in the world that Gili Lankanfushi has a “no news, no shoes” policy. Private butler service is at everyone’s disposal.

There are hammocks above clear, shallow waters a short distance from the lagoons if one wants to relax, read, or sunbathe.

February to August is said to be the hottest times of the year in the Maldives, and the best hotel in the world according to TripAdvisor is operating at full capacity then. Although the weather is still warm from May to November, the skies are a little cloudier with humidity being higher; storms are more likely to develop at that time, too. Prices are lower during the slower times of year, however.

The Maldives is famous for snorkeling and diving.
