How They Dazzle Us

Quite simply, heaven on earth. There are tree villas, water villas and beach villas with private pools. The water is turquoise and the beaches sandy white. The service is incredible, and each villa comes with its own concierge service or host. You are waited on hand-and- foot although, such is the quality of the service, you never feel imposed upon or intruded on. It is a magnificent experience.

Why We Love Them

The team here have covered every angle. Luxury gets a tick. Community improvement gets a tick. It is family friendly. Environmentally conscious. It is hard not to be enamoured on multiple levels. A few of the stand-out features include being able to cycle anywhere on the island. Coral planting with the family and the spotting of endemic wildlife – including flying foxes and white terns. If you fancy lunch on the Equator, they will make that happen for you as well. A visit to Shangri-La's Villingili Resort & Spa, Maldives is not just relaxing, it is inspiring.

Their Sustainable Superpower

There is so much going on here in the realm of sustainability that it is hard to know where to start. From desalination to solar power. Coral planting and turtle protection. Employment equity that focusses on hiring and upskilling staff from local communities. There is a complete avoidance of single-use plastics. The team at this incredible Landing have, as a result of limited access to resources and an acute awareness of issues like global warming and a desire to make a difference, gone all out to be as sustainable as possible. The Landing is an inspiration, and an example of what can be achieved when genuine effort is applied.
