Welcome to the fabulous Soneva Gili Resort & Spa – set on a tiny coral island in a sparkling lagoon, with jetties threading across the water out to the spacious over- water villas.
The forty-four stilted accommodations continue the Soneva philosophy of “Intelligent Luxury” with a small resort concept that caters to guests’ individual desires. Villas are crafted in a traditional style from natural recycled materials. Villas feature rooftop and over-water sundecks, open-air bathrooms, sumptuous daybeds, and a personal entertainment centre. For ultimate privacy, seven Crusoe Residences are surrounded by water and only accessible by personal boat. Come ashore for some indulgent dining and equally great wines or a romantic moonlit dinner delivered right to your villa. Be sure to leave your villa often enough to check out the vibrant activities that are available to you on island and indulge in some personal time at the spa to reward yourself for all your “hard work”. It is all possible at Soneva Gili.
