Travel destinations: Cíes Islands and Maldives luxury resorts
The Cíes Islands in Galicia, Spain, offer a natural escape within a National Park characterized by white sand and turquoise waters. Key attractions include Rodas Beach, which has been recognized by The Guardian as a top beach, and the hike to Alto do Príncipe for panoramic views of the Atlantic cliffs. Due to its protected status, access to the archipelago is restricted and requires prior reservation. The islands lack luxury hotels and Wi-Fi, focusing instead on nature and hiking.
In the Maldives, luxury tourism is highlighted through diverse resort experiences. OBLU SELECT Sangeli in the North Malé Atoll focuses on marine life, offering overwater villas with direct access to the Indian Ocean. Alternatively, RAAYA by Atmosphere provides an experience centered on lush island vegetation and land-based activities. These destinations offer contrasting ways to experience tropical environments, from underwater views to inland exploration.
