While most resorts in the Maldives welcome children, You and Me by Cocoon is adults-only, making it one of the country’s most peaceful destinations for couples. This rustic-chic private island resort delivers romance in spades, with two-person bathtubs, couples photoshoots, a Veuve Cliquot champagne bar, and infinity pools perched on the decks of secluded overwater villas. But one of the most romantic features by far may be a proposal arranged at the underwater restaurant H20, complete with divers holding “Will You Marry Me?” signs behind the glass alongside your table.

Dining under the sea may just be the Maldives’ most unique romantic experience. Hurawalhi Island Resort is home to the exclusive 5.8 Undersea Restaurant, an all-glass structure that sits 5.8 meters (approximately 19 feet) under the surface, and is the world’s largest underwater restaurant. Modern cuisine such as truffle mushroom chicken risotto and seared wagyu tenderloin (plus an entirely separate vegan menu for lunch and dinner) are served with a side of spectacular scenery. Diners beware, you may find yourself vying for your partner’s attention with creatures including reef sharks, octopi, and moray eels.
