"This Yuji Yamazaki–designed property in the Maldives’s Lhaviyani Atoll is a next-generation, ultra-luxury experience like no other, underscored by a mind-blowing “Anything, Anytime, Anywhere” fixed price policy, where nothing is off-limits—nor costs extra—from floating breakfasts to top-shelf Champagne to private fitness training. The island’s 15 ryokan-inspired overwater residences epitomize contemporary Japanese ocean elegance, offering ample room to relax and play against the backdrop of the Maldives’ lazuline beauty (units start at 3,300 square feet.). At Kudadoo’s core lies The Retreat, an impressive open-air minimalist overwater pagoda crowned by 984 solar panels (that power the resort in its entirety) and housing the island’s bar, restaurant, spa, fitness facilities, and lounge areas. Thanks to the Anything, Anytime, Anywhere policy, your residence, The Retreat, and the surrounding nature become your muses for fulfilling the utmost island fantasies. Request to be marooned on nearby Dream Island for a luxury-draped Robinson Crusoe experience or ask for a private toes-in-the-sand beach lunch on Kudadoo itself. Snorkel with giant mantas alongside a marine biologist or try your hand at jet skiing, parasailing, or fishing. Pencil in plenty of time for spa treatments—they are unlimited after all—before or after you figure out how to manage an entire staff of butlers, cooks, personal trainers, yoga masters at your beck and call. Suffice to say, Kudadoo is the ultimate castaway narrative come to life—and the script is yours to write." - Paul Rubio
