Unveil the ultimate tropical escape at Coco Bodu Hithi Resort

Among other things, it’s a great place to meet hawksbill turtles and nurse sharks and swim near manta rays – as well as having its own house reef, it’s just 15 minutes from the much-loved Turtle Point reef with its 40-metre wall housing pygmy seahorses and whip coral shrimps. In addition to the fantastic diving opportunities run from its PADI dive centre and its Bubblemaker and Junior programme for children eight years old and over, Coco Bodu Hithi allows unlimited snorkelling as part of your all-inclusive package.

The 100 beach and overwater villas are spacious, stylish, and ultra-luxurious, with dramatic bathing areas with large central tubs and sunken living areas with a personal bar. Most sleep up to four people and have a private pool, while Island villas have beachfront terraces, private gardens, and outdoor showers. The overwater villas are just a few steps from the lagoon and some also have a four-poster day bed.

This is a great resort for foodies, with everything from degustation menus to top-notch sushi served in its restaurants and bars, all of which have blissful views. There are regular visits by Michelin-starred chefs too, creating one-off experiences and special-occasion dining, from champagne breakfasts on the beach to barbecues on the beach or at your villa.

Stars is part restaurant and part bar, with views over the lagoon. Here, you can enjoy à la carte breakfast favourites, lunch menus inspired by Mediterranean and Asia flavours, and imaginative tasting menus at dinner. Then there’s Tsuki for authentic Japanese cuisine, with terrace and sushi-bar seating and sunset views, Air for fusion food beside the infinity pool, and Aqua, an award-winning overwater fine-dining seafood restaurant where you can savour dishes prepared with an innovative use of spices.

Just married? Embark on the beginning of your forever at Coco Bodu Hithi with their Enhanced Honeymoon package, designed to envelop you in romance and luxury. Picture yourselves stepping into a world where your love is celebrated with the utmost attention to detail—from complimentary upgrades to the next villa category, to the intimate moments shared over a floating champagne breakfast in your villa.

Be greeted with welcome coconut water, a fruit platter, and a bottle of champagne, setting the stage for unforgettable memories. The romance blooms further with a honeymoon floral bed and a 90-minute Coco Fusion Massage for two. Capture the essence of your love with a professional photography session, and if you stay for six nights or more, a romantic dinner under the stars awaits.
