Talking about water villas, one of the best water villas you can choose out of all the resorts in Maldives is Jacuzzi Water Villa at Meeru Island Resort & Spa. Traditional huts on stilts with private decks and romantic whirlpools under the stars, your heart will skip a beat.  

Meeru Island Resort & Spa is a four-star resort with 286 rooms split into separate zones for families and adults. You can reach this 1,200-metre-long island conveniently within 55-minute speedboat ride from Male’ International Airport. Out of 286 rooms, the Garden rooms are the most basic and budget accommodation situated away from the beach with indoor bathroom and a small sundeck. The Beach Villas are wooden bungalows with colourful décor with open area bathrooms along with wooden sundeck out in the back with sun loungers.

Jacuzzi Water Villas are for adults-only. These villas are designed for honeymooners and for couples to enjoy their vacation period to the fullest.        

Meeru Island Resort’s jacuzzi water villas will guarantee you a luxurious and romantic atmosphere during your stay in this paradise like island. A large partly roofed wooden deck with a staircase leading down to the ocean gives you a private slice of utopia. The turquoise lagoon is a perfect sanctuary for honeymoon or for a romantic getaway with your partner. The Jacuzzi water villas are located over the water and detached from other parts of the resort. A short walk from the reception area, these villas consist their own private wooden jetty which leads to this secluded hideaway which features a larger bedroom, wooden floor, espresso machine, a spacious bathroom, a private walled-in outdoor area featuring a Jacuzzi for two, a wooden sundeck with chaise lounges.

Jacuzzi Water Villas are located at the centre of the north edge of the island. The villas are outstretched towards the blue ocean like tiny little turtles walking to the sea. When you check the photos before your arrival, you might think that the water villas are in its right size with small room space, but once you actually stand in front of the villa you will realise how large it actually is. One might think that “water villa” is just a fancy name for a hotel room, but just like its name the villas are fancier and far larger than a typical room at a city hotel. The villa size is almost 1,000 square feet, where you will feel that the villa is a holiday home rather that a room. But the villa is not so fancy or posh yet simple. Jacuzzi Water Villa is clean with its contemporary décor, wooden floor (through its tiny gaps turquoise water is visible) where you can hear the water splashing sound beneath your feet, which gives you the feeling that you are living in a bubble within the sea. The king-size bed with its white bedding and the dark red runners makes you to snuggle and tuck-in with your partner, a framed painted fish on a canvas and vaulted wood ceiling invites you to enjoy the tranquillity within the villa. Everything is in its perfect condition.

In front of each Jacuzzi Water Villa there is a water filled clay pot with a wooden spoon. This helps you to wash away sands from your feet before you enter to the villa. As you spend half of your time enjoying swimming and sunbathing, you will have wet, sandy feet most of the time; so why do you need any plush carpets, a pot of water will do the job. These villas are fairly simple and easy to keep dry and clean.  

The bedroom, living room, kitchenette and wardrobe areas are airconditioned. The bedroom and the living room share the same space where you can view the vast blue ocean and the wooden deck area where the staircase leads to the blue lagoon. Kitchenette and wardrobe area are separated from the bedroom & living room with the help of a wooden wall. Next to the kitchenette there is a door which leads you to the huge bathroom and shower area. There is also a large outdoor deck in the back that has walls made out of wood all around without a roof. This is where the two person Jacuzzi is located, as well as extra sun lounges.

Jacuzzi which is placed on a wooden deck is the most luxurious experience a couple can get, just relaxing in the jacuzzi at night with a glass of champagne and star gazing the dark night skies, it is the best life time experience you can get. The open-air bathroom and the jacuzzi area are walled for privacy where you are not overlooked by the other villas.  

Since all the guests at Meeru Island Resort & Spa are on full-board or all-inclusive meal plans, the kitchenette area in the Jacuzzi Water Villa only consists just a minibar and a sink. There will be an espresso machine just for you in the kitchenette area with capsules to make your own coffee. Tea bags are also available with a little electric kettle. If you are on all-inclusive plan, then you can enjoy the beers and little booze bottles in the minibar each day as you wish. But the bar area at Meeru Island Resort & Spa is just at the end of your pier, where you do not need to go far to get a proper beer, a wine or a cocktail.    

The partially open-air modernly designed bathroom consists with rain shower, double sinks, hair dryer, bath accessories and a large mirror. You can find two bathrobes inside the wardrobe.

The room has a cable TV, even though nobody comes to Maldives to watch TV. There are a handful of English channels and local channels, plus there is an in-house channel which gives you a tour of the island. There is another helpful channel that shows the departure details of each room.

Jacuzzi Water Villa has its own WIFI connection as well. There is one WIFI router for each villa, rather than having one WIFI router for each group of villas. The WIFI connection is bit slow, but it is fast enough to send or read your mails and some web browsing. Still if you need a faster connection, then you can always dial the front office. The faster internet connection is not free and it is not cheap either. Though the free WIFI connection is slow, it is a miracle to get any kind of internet connection at all on this remote island, as per say in a room that is 200 meters offshore. In that sense it is a great benefit.

Jacuzzi Watr Villas are created as sunrise water villas and sunset water villas, catering to both early birds and sundowner enthusiasts. Half of the Jacuzzi Water Villas which are at the Northern end of Meeru Island Resort & Spa are facing the Western horizon that provide guests with a dramatic chiffon-pink sunset that unfold each evening. You can experience the exceptional sight with a glass of wine at the specious wooden front deck while resting on a comfortable sun lounger.

The other half of Jacuzzi Water Villas are facing towards Eastern sea, where you can wake up to the amazingly gorgeous sunrise whilst listening to the rhythm of the lapping waves. When the first ray of sun knocks on the glass partition on your bedroom in the front deck touching your feet, it will urge you to step out of the bed and run toward the deck area to get a perfect click of the sun rise which is emerging from the blue ocean.

The private front sun deck consists with sun loungers and an umbrella where you can rest your eyes on the sparkling sea while sipping on a glass of champagne and take delight in having a balmy lagoon on your doorstep. The view is stunning from the sun deck and you can view lots of sea life. The stairs on the deck that leads directly to the blue lagoon which is not that deep is perfect for snorkelling. Beneath the Jacuzzi Water Villa is beautiful where plenty of fish to keep you company while snorkelling. You will get overwhelmed by all the fish life and colourful corals. If you snorkel bit further towards the sea, you will get lucky to witness stingrays, different types of sharks, turtles and many other fish. As the Jacuzzi Water Villas are situated bit further and detached from rest of the island, you need to walk back and forth to explore the rest of the island, to have your meal and to enjoy other activities in the island. Likewise, every time when you walk back and forth from your room, you get to see more sea life. Also, you can sit on the sun deck at night time and tune down to the relax mode by looking in to the water watching all the fish. Underneath of the villa has flood lights which illuminate the water at night, by providing your own aquarium right under your feet.    

The Jacuzzi Water Villas are also consisting with IDD telephone facility, personal safe to keep your belongings safer, a cushioned sofa with a coffee table to sit and enjoy reading a book or to watch TV and a ceiling fan.

Jacuzzi Beach Villas is also equal to Jacuzzi Water Villa, except for the location. These villas are spread in a random pattern all over the beach area in the island. Beach Villas are also similar to Jacuzzi Beach Villa without a jacuzzi on its private deck. Both Jacuzzi Beach Villa and Beach Villa look like a little beach house, where you will get to enjoy a small private beach out front as each villa is separated nicely.

Garden Villas will make you feel as you are in a normal city hotel room as the rooms are attached on both sides in a U-shaped pattern near the south shore of the island. Even though compare to the other accommodation options, Garden Villa room rate is cheaper where anyone can afford to stay in.
