NH Collection Maldives Havodda — Where Freedom Feels Like Barefoot Luxury

Back for the third time.
And still in love with NH Collection Maldives Havodda (ex-Amari) in Gaafu Dhaalu Atoll— not because it’s flashy, but because it’s *free*.

No heels. No dresses. No pretense.
Just you, barefoot on soft sand, walking to dinner under stars — and no one cares what you wear.
(Though I did laugh at a woman in stilettos and Gucci bag… honey, this is not Milan. This is paradise.)

✨ **Why We Keep Coming Back:**

📍 **Overwater villa 101** — home away from home. Perfectly located, private, peaceful.
🌊 Direct lagoon access — jump in anytime. Reef fish glide under the floor.

🌤️ **Weather magic:**
→ Feb: endless sun, calm seas,
→ Apr–May: sunny days, rain only at night — nature’s lullaby,
→ Oct: first half golden, second moody — dramatic skies, powerful rain, but never ruined the trip.

🍽️ **Food & Vibe:**
→ Buffet + à la carte — fresh seafood, local curries, global dishes,
→ No dress code. Just joy.
→ Staff? Warm, smiling, always ready with cold towels and a joke.

🤿 **Snorkeling:**
The house reef is alive! Turtles, rays, blacktips — all close.
We bring our own mask & fins — but rentals are free if you don’t.

🧴 **Eco-heart:**
We skip sunscreen. It kills coral.
Instead: UV-protective swimwear. I swim in long-sleeve rash guard + leggings — zero burns, full freedom.
Let’s protect this beauty together.

⚠️ Big news:** Rebranded from Amari to NH Collection**.
We hope prices stay fair — this place should remain within reach of those who truly love it.

This isn’t just a resort.
It’s a **state of mind**: simple, deep, real.

See you here in August.
Barefoot. Unplugged. Alive.
