The property
Dhoni suites and serious wellness
Cocoa Island is deliberately small — a slender sandbank with a single line of overwater suites, the earliest of them built in the form of dhoni fishing boats. COMO Shambhala runs the wellness: yoga, Ayurvedic-influenced therapies and the group's famous healthy kitchen. The house reef is superb and the sandbank itself shifts with the seasons. No show, no crowds; it is the quiet connoisseur's choice in South Malé.

Overwater suites and villas, the originals dhoni-shaped. Which one is right depends on the month and who is travelling — that is the first thing we will ask.

What makes it itself
Why people choose it
- 01
A private beach
The sand in front of the resort is its own, so the walk from your room to the water crosses nobody else.
- 02
Overwater villas
Rooms built out over the lagoon, with the water directly beneath the deck — the reason most people come to these islands.
- 03
A full spa
Treatments on the property — massage, steam room, sauna, so a bad-weather afternoon has somewhere to go.
- 04
Diving and snorkelling
Run from the resort, which matters here: the boat leaves from your own jetty rather than an hour up the coast.
- 05
A children's club
Supervised hours for the children, which is the difference between a holiday and a fortnight of childcare with a view.
