    OK so here's the ones we can definitely rule out so far as they have no gym or fitness centre

    jumeirah dhevanafushi
    w retreat & spa
    kanuhura
    soneva fushi

    we can also rule out the following as it is the one in the picture for clue 2

    Kurumba

    we can rule out the following as it is 4 star

    Kuredu

  • Based on the clues and findings on here so far, we can rule these out:
    Kuredu – not 5* deluxe
    Kurumba – not 5* deluxe
    Dusit Thani – not 5* deluxe
    Soneva Fushi – no gym
    Velassuru not 5* deluxe
    Kanuhura – not 5* deluxe
    Lux – not 5* deluxe
    Anantara Veli – not 5* deluxe
    Anantara Dhigu – not 5* deluxe
    W – no gym
    Jumeirah Dhevanafushi – no gym

    This leaves:
    Soneva Gili
    Niyama
    Viceroy
    *Park Hyatt
    Waldorf Astoria
    Conrad
    Taj
    *Huvafen
    One & Only
    Jumeirah Vittaveli

    The ones with stars are the ones that definitely have a spa, over water villas and private beach. The others probably need looking at again as there was some confusion but my head hurts so I'm going to look fresh tomorrow.
  • See when I entered before the clues began I thought 'One and only' mainly because it looked the prettiest :)
    New year, new comper here!
    Wins for January- 2 free chapsticks, Celebrations.

    Soneva Gili has over water villas - see it in their pics - then I looked at accommodation/rooms.
    '29 water villas with king-size bed and some with two single beds.'

    cheers, I hadn't seen the bit about being a 5 star deluxe otherwise I'd have added those to my rejects list too :T

    We weren't going to give this as an explicit clue, but we wanted to clarify in case of any confusion. So, clue 3 is that the prize winning hotel is NOT this one, nor is it any of the hotels that are NOT listed as 5* DELUXE on our website. That's right - the prize we are giving away IS listed on our website as 5* DELUXE - we do state this on our competition entry page. Of course, the good news for everyone is that this the prize is indeed something truly special! http://www.destinology.co.uk/indian-ocean/maldives-hotels/403635_335702846450729_164662060221476_1162074_1367794847_n.jpgDestinology Maldives Competition - CLUES




    cant find the pic in any of the remaining hotels so looks like we've eliminated this one already, unless anyone knows different

    The picture is of Kuredu Island Resort


    see www.kuredu.com
    I woke up last night to find the ghost of Gloria Gaynor standing at the foot of my bed.
    At first I was afraid.......then I was petrified.…

    Liz I may be reading it wrong but under facilities for jumeirah dhevanafushi it says it has a Health Club Over Water :)
