Shangri La Maldives
Public Areas – 142 Villas
Embraced by idyllic white beaches, lush foliage and crystalline azure waters, Shangri-La’s Villingili Resort and Spa is a unique all-villa retreat with 142 spacious accommodations ranging from exclusive Water villas and Beach villas to dramatically perched Treehouse hideaways. The stunning Treehouse villas — a first for the Maldives — offer a three-metre high panoramic perspective over the island.
Interiors take inspiration from, and are an extension of, the island’s picturesque surroundings. The soft colour palette draws generally from the sea, land and sky to imbue spaces with soothing warmth and restorative comfort. To contrast the disciplined symmetries that govern the interior architecture, multiple layered textures were used liberally, accentuating the villas as deluxe timber cocoons filled with treasures from around the region.
