A sunshine guarantee in the Maldives

Luxury tour operator Bailey Robinson has an amazing offer of cash-back at the exclusive resort of Naladhu if it rains. So confident of sunshine, US$600 per villa will be credited should it rain for more than three hours between sunrise and sunset every day that this might happen. The credit is to be spent at the resort, so even if it rains clients will be able to spend their credit on massages, romantic dinners, scuba diving or enjoying a desert island picnic once the rain clears.

Located on the Maldivian sandbar of Velighandu Huraa, Naladhu offers sublime comfort and elegance. Meaning “beautiful island”, Naladhu boasts 11 Ocean Houses and eight Beach Houses with private pools, each named after a Maldivian plant. All houses have their own stretch of beach or private beach cabanas with swaying palms and endless turquoise water for the ultimate island escape.

The private houses are beautifully appointed with white-washed timber wall panels, colourful local fabrics and antique furnishing creating a romantic sense of nostalgia but with all the modern facilities you would expect. Guests can do as much or as little as they want and have a 24-hour ‘House Master’ to cater to your every whim.

Deep-sea fishing and scuba diving is on offer while further hours can be spent sailing, snorkelling or exploring the neighbouring islands. Lie back and indulge in an Ayurvedic message on the beach, partake in sunrise yoga on the beach, hone your cooking skills on a culinary course or sit back and let someone else do the cooking at Naladhu’s Living Room restaurant.

Seven-nights in a Beach House at Naladhu on a bed & breakfast basis, costs from £3,395 per person and includes international flights with Sri Lankan Airlines and speedboat transfers.

The promotion is valid until December 19, 2008. Restrictions apply and cannot be combined with any other promotional offer.
