Grand Park Kodhipparu is the Park Hotel Group's resort in North Malé Atoll, about 20 minutes by speedboat from the airport. It's a calm, modern island of beach villas with pools and long jetties of overwater villas, and its house reef has won awards.
On the beach, pool villas sit among the greenery. Over the water, Lagoon Water Villas have glass floor panels and hammocks, Ocean Water Villas face the sunrise with nets over the waves, Pool Water Villas add an infinity pool, and Reef Pool Water Villas give the easiest access to the reef. A two-bedroom Grand Residence sits at the end of the pier.
The Edge serves international buffets with Asian highlights and live stations, FireDoor is the award-winning restaurant with a glass floor over the reef, and Breeze does poolside dining and drinks. There's a spa, a kids' club, a resident yoga master and a marine biologist for reef walks.
