Under the slogan “Where Castaway Meets Runway” the private island is all about bold colors and a daring sense of style for its decoration, but also even in the loungy, sexy music heard throughout the resort.
The main pool of the property in an assured patchwork of colors perfectly summarizes the spirit of SO/ Maldives, while offering the ideal backdrop for social media triumphs. Only 15 minutes away by speedboat from Malé, the island features 80 beachfront and over-water villas. Floating above aquamarine seas, the latter is generous in space, offering big circular bathtubs in the main room, spacious walk-in closets, and multiple elements of color such as bright headboards in yellow, pink, and white.
