O2 Beach Club & Spa by Ocean Hotels
Contemporary cool meets authentic culture at this luxury all-inclusive
A luxury boutique hotel on Barbados’s south coast with a trendy rooftop bar overlooking Oistins Bay.
The fresh and contemporary O2 Beach Club & Spa is fronted by a sweeping, palm-lined beach with talcum soft sands. The name gives a clue to the vibe here: it’s a cool and contemporary beach club with glistening pools and casual eateries only a few steps away from your memory-foam sunbed. The resort’s spa offers a wide range of muscle-melting treatments, and you can gain a few new skills when you’re on holiday thanks to the range of hands-on ‘how to’ experiences that range from steel pan playing and rum punch making to Hobie Cat sailing.

We've done the exploring, asked the locals, made the mistakes, and found the gems... so you don't have to start from scratch! These are the bits we think you'll love the most. Think of it as travel advice from a friend who just got back and can't wait to tell you everything.

If you love French cuisine, look no further than La Belle Vie

An incredible way to kick off your Maldives holiday
“There's something pretty special about travelling by seaplane. The view from the sky is extraordinary - tiny specs of island and shades of blue that barely look real.”


The iconic, mile-long sandbank
Perfect for isolated sunbathing, dramatic photoshoots, and watching breathtaking Maldivian sunsets.

Snorkelling and diving isn't the only way to catch sight of the underwater world
“If snorkelling and diving isn't for you, it's possible to catch a glimpse of the reef from a glass-bottomed boat instead.”


Kids club at Niva Kuramathi Maldives
Supervised activities through the day, so younger guests get their own adventure while you get a quiet hour by the water.
A match made in paradise
This hotel is perfect on its own, but add a second destination and it becomes something even better. Discover our multi-centre holidays and make paradise last longer.
Food & drink
Four restaurants and a cool coffee shop offer plenty of choice on the culinary front here, with menus spanning Asian to Caribbean-fusion. Come on a Saturday for Bajan specialities and live entertainment.
The resort's restaurants include Elements, where a Mimosa breakfast is served as well as lunch and dinner, and Oro, a unforgettable fine-dining experience serving European dishes with a Caribbean twist. For casual beachside bits, there's the open-air-venue Bluefin where you can order pizzas, fresh fish and grilled dishes. Tapas-style dishes come with a view at the nautiucal themed Brisa while teas, coffees and sweet treats are available from the poolside Oasis. For a special occasion, you can treat yourself and up to 11 other people to a Chef's Table dinner or Bespoke Beach Dining experience.
It’s hard to beat the Brisa Roof Terrace – a stylish bistro where you can snack on small plates while taking in views over the famous Oistins Bay.
Elements — Start the day with a Mimosa breakfast here, and tuck into buffet lunches and dinners, from Caribbean to Asian to Italian; think teriyaki glazed salmon and pineapple coconut rum cake, with a mesmerising ocean view for a backdrop. Oro — Set on the ninth floor, this fine-dining rooftop restaurant offers breathtaking views over the South Coast, and serves innovative European-meets-Caribbean cuisine in opulent surroundings; think smoked duck salad, grilled lobster tail and filet mignon, finished off with Bailey’s coffee crème brûlée. Bluefin — Enjoy casual beachside fare at this laid-back open-air-venue, serving burgers, salads, pizzas and seafood a stone’s throw from the beach. Brisa — Tapas-style dishes come with a view at this nautical-themed rooftop lounge; feel the breeze as you tuck into the likes of seafood paella, stuffed aubergine and crab croquettes on a stylish wooden deck under the stars. Oasis — Teas, coffees, sweet treats and cocktails are the name of the game at this poolside café, offering beautiful ocean views.

Questions? Sorted.
Do I need a visa to visit the Maldives?
British passport holders are issued a free 30-day visitor visa on arrival. You'll need a passport valid for the duration of your stay, a confirmed onward ticket and proof of your accommodation booking.
When is the best time to visit the Maldives?
November to April is the dry season, with the most reliable sunshine and calmest seas. May to October brings shorter rain showers, lower prices and better surf.
What currency is used in the Maldives, and do I need cash?
The local currency is the Maldivian rufiyaa, but resorts price and bill in US dollars and take major cards. Most guests never need cash — a small amount is handy for tipping.
Is the Maldives good for honeymoons outside peak season?
Yes. Off-peak brings noticeably lower rates and quieter islands, and rain tends to come in short bursts rather than all day. Many resorts add honeymoon extras during these months.
What activities are there for older kids and teens in the Maldives?
Most resorts run watersports centres with windsurfing, kayaking and paddleboarding, plus PADI dive courses from around age ten. Snorkelling safaris, sandbank trips and night fishing all suit older children.
