The Beach Villa with Swirl Pool sits on the lagoon side of Kandima, right on the main beach. At 97 sqm, it is one of the roomiest options for a small family, with a king bed, a sofa bed and a front deck with sunbeds where you can sit and watch the lagoon. The swirl pool on the deck is yours alone, for a quick dip between the beach and the pool bar.

The semi-outdoor bathroom is the highlight, with a bathtub, a rainfall shower and a day-bed. Inside, you get a coffee machine, a minibar, a safe, a hair dryer and a 40-inch LED TV with an in-room entertainment system, plus free Wi-Fi. There are 18 of these villas on the island, and each sleeps 2 adults and 2 children, which makes it a popular pick for families heading to the Kandiland kids club.

Kandima Maldives is in Dhaalu Atoll, reached by a 40-minute seaplane from Velana International Airport or a 30-minute domestic flight followed by a 20-minute boat ride. Makani can book the whole trip from Dubai, Abu Dhabi or anywhere in the UAE, including flights, transfers and meal plans.
