Luxury Indian Ocean Holidays

The epitome of paradise and luxury. The Indian Ocean offers some of the most idyllic islands in the world and rich diversity. You will find it difficult to choose between land and sea, with its powdery white beaches and crystal-clear waters that are fringed by swaying palm trees. Enjoy the year-round sunny climate, glorious landscapes and stunning and unique resorts.

Snorkel or dive in the unspoiled coral reefs and experience the teeming marine life including manta rays, sharks and turtles. Fantasies come to life on luxury holidays to the Maldives through staying in stunning overwater villas, dining in fine restaurants, socialising in upscale beach bars, relaxing in underwater spas and enjoying open-air cinemas and sunken wine cellars.
