The best hotels in the Maldives — for every budget

This rather unusual hotel is like the Barbican of the Maldives, with less height and considerably more luxury. It’s main buildings comprise layered concrete, creating a stylish dichotomy between brutalism and the natural beauty of the rainforest. Internally, the rooms and restaurants are all about crisp fabrics and sharp lines, with windows instead of walls, as well as East Asian-inspired wooden partitions and low seating. Dotted across the island, there’s a lobby, cocktail bar, dive centre, café and two restaurants, as well as a showstopper restaurant called Seasalt, whose infinity pool is absolutely Instagram-worthy.
