The Bar/Lounge at W Maldives

"There are decent dining options -- a seafood spot under-the-stars, a barbecue joint by the water, a bistro -- but unlike other resorts, there's also a game attempt at creating a club scene: a colorful underground grotto of neon and lounge booths, pulsing to DJ-spun trance and house"

"And nearby SIP lounge offers an après-dîner destination for the social set, while 15BELOW gets the party started by spinning the hottest tunes and pouring over 95 varieties of vodka"

"Its 75 large and trendy rooms -- many of which sit over the ocean -- come along with a picture-worthy lagoon and beach, small-but-lively pool, casual gourmet restaurants, chic bars, and the Maldives' only underground club (with a resident DJ, no less)"

"Add to this three excellent restaurants, three glamorous bars, a vast swimming pool and even a private desert island for guests to use, and it’s easy to see why this is the choice of the discerning, wealthy and cool"

"There are W Welcome Ambassadors to greet them and direct them to the W Van that takes them to the W Lounge, where they are offered food, drinks, and, if they choose, a shower"
