Review of Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Kuda Huraa, by John Weich

For many, the sunken infinity pool bar at the Four Seasons Kuda Huraa resort in the Maldives is the epicentre of cool, the equatorial equivalent to a central sitting at The Ivy. Between the months of December and April anyone who can finagle a beach bungalow at this luxury resort is privy to the spectacle of champagne sipping celebrities and taut glamour gals sheathed (nonchalantly of course) in Gucci Reptiles and who, admittedly, have a cute way of sashaying in their Burberry bikinis to the submerged octagonal bar chairs at the bar without compromising their composure. It's all recherché and carefree, but it's a scene we have witnessed before in Barbados and Bali. That palpable air of affluence that goes hand in hand with exotic, up-scale resorts.
