Condé Nast Traveler this week announced the results of its annual Readers’ Choice Awards with Coco Collection’s two properties Coco Bodu Hithi and Coco Palm Dhuni Kolhu recognised as #18 and #19 Best Resort in the World – Indian Ocean, respectively.

More than 240,000 Condé Nast Traveler readers submitted responses rating their travel experiences across the globe to provide a full snapshot of the top places they enjoyed this year and can’t wait to return to next. The Readers’ Choice Awards are the longest-running and most prestigious recognition of excellence in the travel industry and the full list of winners can be found here.

“We are so honoured to have been voted amongst the best resorts in the Indian Ocean by the readers, our guests! This wonderful achievement is made even more special as this week we celebrate the 50th tourism anniversary in the Maldives, and our own almost 40 years in the industry”, said Coco Collection’s Group General Manager, Mr Siraj Waseem.

Coco Collection was founded by four Maldivian brothers who were united by a shared ethos to convey authentic, locally inspired hospitality to the rest of the world. Coco Bodu Hithi and Coco Palm Dhuni Kolhu were each created with environmental sustainability and social responsibility at their core, interwoven with a commitment to preserving the local traditions and sharing the unique heritage of the Maldives through superb hospitality.

The 2022 Readers’ Choice Awards are published on Condé Nast Traveler’s website at cntraveler.com/rca and celebrated in the November issue.

Coco Collection specialises in creating true boutique luxury on some of the most beautiful islands in the Maldives. Since its launch in 2005, Coco Collection has crafted five-star destinations of different character and won awards for doing so with passionate flair. Each of their resorts is a haven for lovers of travel and style. Each celebrates traditional Maldivian architecture and ambiance. But each offers a distinct and extraordinary reality.

Look out for Coco Collection resorts packages & offers - we hope they get you here sooner and allow you to stay with us longer.

Coco Collection

Coco Bodu Hithi

Coco Collection runs two islands — Coco Bodu Hithi and Coco Palm Dhuni Kolhu that make up the Coco Collection brand.

Luxurious and contemporary, with superb private pool villas and an idyllic overwater spa - Coco Bodu Hithi, the flagship property in Coco Collection’s portfolio, is a chic retreat where you reconnect with yourself, your loved ones and the wonder of the natural world. Translating island life into contemporary sophistication, the resort, which is accessible by a 40-minute speedboat ride from the main Velana International Airport, offers 100 villas that are surrounded by the calm view of the lagoon and the soothing sound of the waves. There are seven chic restaurants, two open air cocktail bars, extensive thatched overwater Coco Spa and a fitness center (with ocean views!). An uncrowded infinity swimming pool and a large selection of activities, including scuba diving and snorkeling in the lagoon. Despite all these facilities, guests - especially at night - tend to seek privacy in a private getaway, possibly with a bottle from Wine Loft.

Coco Palm Dhuni Kolhu is a quiet place in the Maldives where you will find luxury, beauty and privacy at reasonable prices. The resort very well takes care of its environment and creates guests all for a 5-star beach experience in tropical paradise. Dhuni Kolhu is ahead of other hotels in its category by quality, design and amenities. This is a top class, but a simple, laid-back package of key Maldives elements - diving, snorkeling, beach, island and accommodation. Half a mile from tip to tip, a private island of medium size is populated with 98 villas. Snorkeling and scuba diving is awesome amd the guests can freely walk between two restaurants, SPA and sports grounds, using shady paths entwining the lush jungle. The removal of the island takes 30 minutes by seaplane from Male airport. Snorkeling and scuba diving is awesome and the resort offers a number of fun tours, but there is no pool on the island.
