Guests staying at Hideaway Beach Maldives will be now able to enjoy deliciously pure and simple water in refillable chic glass bottles and the process is carried out on the island, making it even more environmentally friendly.

"We all know how important it is to stay hydrated whilst holidaying somewhere so gloriously hot and sunny as the Maldives. We also know about the harm that single-use plastics are doing to the worlds oceans and plastic water bottles play a big part in this global problem facing marine creatures such as turtles that are prolific on the reefs of this tropical island nation," Reads a statement by Hideaway.

"At Hideaway Beach Resort & Spa this was a dilemma that had to be faced and the result is a water bottling plant supplying all the islands needs without a plastic bottle in sight!"

The water processing plant is kept scrupulously clean with strict hygiene practices adhered to. The bottles themselves are sterilised in a special machine between each use and, for peace of mind, samples are sent away to Male each month for testing. Water is available in 500 ml or 1 litre bottles with a choice of still or sparkling.

Each day, an average of 600 bottles are refilled for consumption which according to the resort is a lot of plastic bottles not ending up in the ocean. Hideaway is one of the few resorts in the Maldives leading the way in the fight against single-use plastic water bottles, only a few other resorts are able to offer this environmentally sustainable solution to staying hydrated.

Hideaway Beach Resort & Spa is located on the crescent-shaped Dhonakulhi Island in the north of the Maldives belonging to the Haa Alifu Atoll; 290 km from the capital Malé. Following a $50million investment in the redevelopment of the whole-island and an extensive renovation of the property, previously known as Island Hideaway, the five-star resort offers guests the luxury of space and privacy across 297,000 square metres. 

The 103 luxury villas fall into eight categories ranging from beachfront to over-water. Each villa has been carefully positioned to offer peace, comfort and privacy to guests. Home to the first fully functional marina in the Maldives, due to its unique reef system, Hideaway Beach Resort & Spa boasts an enviable dive spot close by. 

The resort offers an extensive programme of wellness and sporting experiences, vast culinary offering, and one of the largest spas in the Maldives. Characterised by its intimate ambience and remote location, the island resort stays true to its name and offers guests a true hideaway.
