Located in the Maldives, the PER AQUUM Huvafen Fushi resort sits on a coral reef island. It takes only about 10 minutes to walk around the entire island. The resort’s swimming pool looks, from afar, as if it merges with the coastline, offering an unrestricted sense of freedom. At night, you can also see a sky full of stars from the pool, earning this place the nickname “Island of Dreams.”
