Nova Maldives Review: An intimate island offering a restorative escape, breathtaking scenery, and unmatched calm

If you're looking to hit pause and reset, then a Nova Maldives all-inclusive resort is the place to do it. Having been told that I'll need a "serious number of books", or risk feeling restless, I was apprehensive about the enforced downtime. As someone who finds it hard to switch off, I usually opt for city breaks or at least trips with plenty of sightseeing readily available. But Nova's refreshing approach to relaxation has completely changed my mind, offering just enough to keep me engaged whilst gently encouraging me to slow down and recharge.

From the moment we landed, the bright blue sea and luscious overgrown greenery were enough to make me want to stay forever, and to be honest, I'm surprised they got me back on that seaplane. But, putting aside the resplendent beauty of the resort's private island, the whole Nova experience truly blew us away. From the impeccable and personable service to the spacious and thoughtfully laid-out rooms, Nova is designed to make you feel taken care of and to encourage you to feel fully restored.
