    5 Ways Patina Maldives, Fari Island Sets a New Standard

    “World travel is making a comeback, with over 100 countries now welcoming U.S. travelers. If you’ve been dreaming of an exotic escape, destinations like The Maldives are open to international guests who are COVID-free and don’t require quarantine. Since August 1, guest houses and hotels on inhabited islands have reopened.

    The Maldives is made up of more than a thousand islands, so choosing where to visit can be tough. However, the newest private island resort, Patina Maldives, Fari Islands, stands out. Located in the North Malé Atoll and just a 45-minute ride from Velana International Airport, it’s the perfect spot to unwind.

    Patina Maldives is the debut property of the new lifestyle brand Patina Hotels & Resorts by Capella Hotel Group. The resort features 90 modern beach and water villas, ranging from one to three bedrooms, plus 20 studios, all designed to offer a blend of relaxation and excitement.

    Guests can enjoy private relaxation, indulge in a serene spa, or dive into island activities like snorkeling. For a lively social scene, the Fari Marina Village and Fari Beach Club offer restaurants, bars, shops, and interactive music programs. There’s even a private marina for those arriving by yacht.

    For ultimate privacy, The Beach Collection at Patina offers the resort’s largest villa with nine bedrooms, plus six nearby villas. This setup includes seven pools and a private beach, letting you enjoy a Kardashian-level retreat without the drama.

    The resort showcases biophilic design by renowned Brazilian architect Marcio Kogan. It features a permanent art gallery and a collection curated by Talenia Phua Gajardo. Notably, artist James Turrell has created a unique installation called Amarta in the James Turrell Skyspace Pavilion, where guests can experience art in a light-filled space.

    Patina Maldives is also committed to sustainability. The resort employs zero-waste practices, recycles marine plastic, and offers free dive lessons for children to foster environmental respect.”
