<![CDATA[<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/1425/Diva_0454.jpg" class="imgborder">Still rolling out some of its luxury services and amenities after soft opening in May this year, the <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/The+Diva+Hotel%2C+Maldives/local/1309">Diva Hotel</a> in the Maldives has already picked up a reputation for being one of the few places to party on the otherwise totally relaxed islands. A UK Times report actually got pretty excited about the nightlife possibilities at Diva: <blockquote> The Diva hotel is about to launch the archipelago's first seriously hip-swivelling disco. Get into the zone at the Iru Bar, where the concept is "shoeless", before shimmying your way into the Musik nightclub, where it will probably tend towards legless.</blockquote>Iru Bar with its barefoot attitude is understandably right next to the beach with views across the sea,

Sourth Ari Atoll: Cubicle Dreamin': The Lust for Conrad Maldives is Never-Ending

<![CDATA[ Cubicle Dreamin' is a feature in which we ask the hotel mavens to take some time out of their busy work day, surf the Internet, and tell us what hotel they wish they could beam themselves to right that very second--all on the slave driving companies dime, of course. Oh, like these people aren't surfing aimlessly anyway--at least now their purposeless clicking will be cobbled together into useful hotel stories--we hope.

Maldives: Snapshot :: The W Boat at the W Maldives

juliana — 2008-05-22T17:05:49-05:00

A friend of ours was fortunate enough to be able to make the trip to the W Maldives a few months ago and of course the green-eyed monster came out when looking at her vacation pics.

The W seems to be everything it promises on the website, in the magazines, in the ads and more. We will go there someday. Oh yes, we will go there someday.

In the meantime, check out this sweet W boat that ferries guests around where they need to go--like the airport. Do you think they would sell that in the W online store?

<![CDATA[<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/3873/Four_Seasons_Maldives_Water_Villa_Pool.jpg" class="imgborder"> A relatively recent opening in the Maldives, the <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Four+Seasons+Landaa+Giraavaru/ian/237009">Four Seasons Landaa Giraavaru</a> has quickly become a very popular destination over its first couple of years. In a UK Independent report last week it got an extremely positive write-up:<blockquote> Food and cabins - there are some 50 "beach pavilions" and 38 "water bungalows" - are, needless to say, so faultless you'll want to cry when it's time to leave.</blockquote>When we see this photo of the pool out the back of a water villa, we can understand never wanting to say goodbye. And each room and villa come with such a long list of life's daily needs that we could probably stay and work from there anyhow: they

Rangali Island: Try 130 Cheeses at the Hilton Maldives

amandak — 2007-07-10T10:57:40-05:00

When we think of the Maldives, snorkelling, scuba diving and relaxing at the pool are the kinds of activities which spring to mind. But those heading to the Hilton Maldives Resort and Spa (to become the Conrad Maldives Rangali Island in December) should add another activity to the list: cheese-tasting.
