00:04Welcome to NH Collection Maldives Reethi Resort. Following a short seaplane flight you'll arrive
00:11at this stunning private island. Reethi is in the Bar Atoll, part of the UNESCO World Biosphere
00:17Reserve. It's hard to take your eyes away from the ocean as we arrive. The water is absolutely
00:23as turquoise as you see in all the Instagram posts. There's a variety of accommodation options,
00:28from stunning overwater villas to ones right on the beachfront with a private pool.
00:34The villas are sumptuous and spacious, with high-pitched ceilings, a huge bed and a glamorous
00:40bathroom with a rain shower that beckons you to look up through the open roof to the swaying palm
00:46trees above. This is a shoes-are-optional kind of resort, where white sandy pathways lead you to
00:52the turquoise ocean, places to eat and drink and a huge infinity pool where you can laze away your
00:59afternoons with a cocktail. Speaking of cocktails, a favourite among resort guests uses dark rum produced
01:07right here. Reethi is the world's first resort to produce a certified underwater aged rum. Glass
01:15bottles of rum are placed in metal cages and lowered at 10 metres below the ocean's surface,
01:19where they'll stay for the next 12 months to mature. Food options range from relaxed buffet
01:26breakfasts to stunning overwater dining options, where you can eat freshly caught seafood as you
01:31watch boats bobbing on the ocean. Don't miss going to Caravella Restaurant for exclusive fine dining and a
01:38six-course degustation menu that honours trips made by great explorers of days gone by. Of course,
01:45a trip to the Maldives wouldn't be complete without going snorkelling or diving. You'll be able to see
01:51dolphins, turtles, colourful fish and corals in the waters right around Reethi.
