Nestled on the secluded Emboodhu Finolhu Island, the Taj Exotica Resort & Spa, Maldives, offers a luxurious retreat surrounded by the pristine beauty of nature. The resort, enveloped by turquoise waters, white sandy beaches, and lush tropical landscapes, provides a tranquil haven for relaxation. With spacious overwater villas boasting stunning ocean views and a plethora of activities to immerse oneself in the island’s natural wonders, Taj Exotica is the ultimate destination for those seeking peace, beauty, and serenity in the Maldives.
Recently, Taj Exotica Resort & Spa has been honored with the Most Sustainable Resort title at the TTM Awards & Gala 2024. This recognition highlights the resort’s groundbreaking efforts in sustainable luxury, including the installation of the Maldives’ first floating solar park and various eco-conscious initiatives. The resort continues to set new benchmarks in sustainable luxury, demonstrating a steadfast commitment to environmental stewardship.
Partnership with Swimsol, the world leader in offshore marine photovoltaics, has enabled Taj Exotica to launch a 1,080 kWp solar park, the largest functioning Solar Sea system in the Maldives. This innovative system, coupled with a battery, allows the resort to operate entirely on renewable energy throughout the day. The SolarSea system saves approximately 475,000 litres of diesel annually and reduces the resort’s carbon footprint by 1,200 tons each year.
Taj Exotica Resort & Spa operates with one of the lowest carbon footprints in the Maldives, emphasizing its dedication to sustainable indulgence. The resort’s initiatives focus on energy conservation, minimizing ecological damage, and preserving the natural beauty of the Maldives. These efforts underscore its commitment to environmental responsibility and sustainable luxury.
Building on its sustainable practices, the resort invites guests to participate in the Adopt a Coral Line program. This initiative involves planting coral fragments at the Coral Line Nursery, contributing to the restoration of local reefs. Launched in 2004, the program is part of the resort’s ongoing efforts to support critical research into the Maldivian ecosystem, facilitated by specialists at the PADI 5-Star Diving and Water Sports Centre.
Among the select few resorts in the Maldives, Taj Exotica Resort & Spa stands out as one of only two resorts to have earned the EarthCheck Platinum certification, highlighting its unwavering commitment to environmental stewardship.
