Nestled on the private island of Gasfinolhu in the heart of the Indian Ocean, the resort produces over one megawatt of electricity each day and powered by renewable energy and 100% off the grid. The couple will spend their time in the tranquil waters and white sandy beaches. The resort offers spa, fitness and water spot like scuba diving, kayak and stand up paddle.

Waking up to paradise... somehow every time I dream of this place, the turquoise water isn’t as blue, the beaches aren’t as white and the palm trees aren’t as soothing as it is in real life! This is just one magical place... #pinchme @adriaanbergh . . . #maldives #maldivesfinolhu #islandvibes #island #turquoisewater #clubmedsa #paradise #tropical @clubmed @maldivesmania @islandvibess @clubmedfinolhu #love #happiness
