Water Villas in the Maldives - Dusit Thani Maldives

🩵Due to concerns about noise from the seaplane, I emailed the hotel in advance to request a water villa with a room number starting with 5. However, I was assigned room 602, which starts with 6. ✨During the May Day holiday, the hotel was fully booked, so room assignments seemed quite random. From the balcony of the room, I saw seaplanes passing by two to three times a day, but the noise was within an acceptable range. 🥰The water villa has a staircase that allows direct access to the water for snorkeling 🤿. After swimming just over ten meters, you reach the reef, where the water quality is much better than that of the beach villas. The room is surrounded by coral reefs 🪸, and the closer you get to room 601, the more fish 🐟 you can see underwater. On the day of our departure, I heard from the neighbors in room 601 that there were three baby sharks 🦈 lingering at the entrance to their room at 7 AM for over twenty minutes, but unfortunately, I woke up too late to see them. 🌈For snorkeling enthusiasts, the water quality in the morning is better than in the afternoon, but I did see a turtle while snorkeling in the afternoon and got to swim with it! # Dusit Thani Maldives# Maldives#Funadhoo#trip diary#travel guide#Maldives guide#Maldives trip#travel story#trip life
