马尔代夫COMO可可亚岛  浮潜最佳的静谧小岛


在马尔代夫1192座珊瑚岛中,约202座岛屿为居民岛,海岛酒店达100多家。游客最终登上哪座岛,都算百里挑一的缘分了。选择COMO可可亚岛的多是慕名而来。COMO在国内尚无酒店开业,最出名的一次曝光是梁朝伟在不丹COMO的乌玛帕罗酒店迎娶了刘嘉玲。其实国际上这个低调小众的奢华品牌已经拥有广泛的拥簇,由主张个性风格隐逸的COMO来诠释海岛酒店再合适不过。


沿着主岛南侧浅滩上蜿蜒的木栈桥,酒店仅有的33间水屋深入海上,最基本的房型是面积达75平米的多尼船套房。这个全马尔代夫唯一以当地渔船为灵感的水屋,船身由新西兰松木建造,覆盖拱形的茅草屋顶,船首进门,船尾露天甲板有直接通向大海的扶梯,供客人随心所欲地下海浮潜。


值得注意的是,COMO可可亚岛于2002年开业,轻描淡写的极简风格沿用至今,看起来依旧恰到好处。因为大海和天空已经足够多彩,尤其在天亮和入夜时分,设计上简洁清爽,给大自然留出了足够的空间。


COMO可可亚岛的主岛是个狭长的袖珍小岛,茂盛生长着棕榈树木槿缅栀海葡萄等热带植物,四周白沙环绕。从西向东依次为酒吧和餐厅区员工区运动中心前台健身中心和水疗区等。清晰的排列给人一种特别的愉悦之感。


餐厅名字叫Ufaa,在当地语言中是快乐的意思,采用富含生物酶维他命和海洋矿物的有机食材,通过生食蒸熟烤制的手法制作南印度风味的佳肴。印度泥炉烧烤出的肉类和鱼鲜脂肪低却有碳烤香味。紧邻餐厅的Faru酒吧适合小酌一杯,二者环绕海边的无边际泳池,宽敞的木质亭阁结构掩映在树荫之间。


在运动中心可以免费租借浮潜的全套装备,免费使用皮划艇等非电动设备。其中一款皮划艇的底座是透明的,划船时低头就看见海中的鱼影。深潜海钓寻找海豚的落日巡航等项目应有尽有,厨房还会烹调客人前一天钓到的鲜鱼。


去可可亚岛的拖尾沙滩看日出和浮潜是不容错过的体验。天亮前起身,背上装着浮潜装备的背包出门。此时天刚蒙蒙亮,海水在慢慢涨潮。沿着木栈道向东,再沿着沙滩来到主岛的最东侧,只见一条洁白的拖尾沙滩蜿蜒向前,正迎着日出的方向。


浮潜尽兴后回房,正好是去Ufaa餐厅享用丰盛早餐的时间。崭新的一天假期才刚刚开始,刚刚在海边体验到的一切已经成为了难忘的回忆。


COMO Cocoa Island, Maldives The World‘s Best Diving Island


Among the 1192 coral islands in Maldives, around 202 are inhabited, including 100 given over to tourism. Your destiny shall draw you to your destined island. Currently there is no COMO hotels opened in China, and its most highprofile exposure is when the movie star Tony Leung married Carina Lau in COMO UMA PARO, Bhutan. In fact, this lowkey niche brand has gained a formidable international fanbase and is the most appropriate candidate for bringing  a new interpretation to an island hotel.


Along the south side of the main island, the 33 waterhouses of COMO Cocoa Island are deep into the water. The most basic room type is the 75 sqm ‘dhoni’room, based on the designs used by Maldivian fishermen, which is no where to be found in Maldives. The room structures combine New Zealand pine with Kajan thatched roofs. After entering from the boat front, the space opens up to a substantial deck by the boat end for slipping in and out of the water through a handrails.


The inside and outside space merges on the horizonside, with floortoceiling glass windows. The interior is set in white tone, matched with teak flooring, original wood furniture; the slight bluetoned handrails blend in with the white sand and the blue sea. The room is ventilated by natural air, aircon and fan on the ceiling beams, blocking the heat outside. Open the curtain anytime when you want the view of the sea.


Since its opening in 2002, the style of COMO Cocoa Island is deliberately restrained, using a simple yet sophisticated mix of the contemporary and indigenous. Since the ocean and the sky is colorful enough, especially at the dawn and by the evening, the simple yet brisk design has given enough space for the mother nature to shine.


The COMO Cocoa Island is long and thin, lush with palm trees, hibiscus, Burma gardenia, sea grapes and other tropical planets, surrounded by white sands. The facilities are, from the west to the east, respectively bar area, dining area, staff area, sports center, front desk, gym and spa. The clear arrangement provides a special delightfulness.


At COMO Cocoa Island, the restaurant is called Ufaa, meaning ‘happy’ in Maldivian. The menu is made of organic foods rich in living enzymes, vitamins and sea minerals. The Tandoor is employed to allow for fatfree grilling of meats and fish. After the dinner, one can have a drink by the Faru bar next to the restaurant, both flanking the resort’s infinityedged pool, in natural wood and Kajan thatch.


The guests can borrow for free the full scuba diving equipment in sports center, and use nonelectrical equipment for free such as the rubber boat. One of the rubber boat is transparent at the base, so you can see the fish in the sea when you look down. Here you can go scuba diving, fishing and dolphins searching, and the kitchen will even cook the catch for you for the next day lunch.


One cannot miss the experience of watching sunrise on the sandbank and going scuba diving. Wake up before the sunrises, and leave with the diving equipment on your back. The day is just lighting, and the tide is just rising. Walk towards the east along the sandbank to the Eastern tip of the main island, you will see a white sandbank ahead of you, facing the sunrise.


After the scuba diving, it‘s high time to enjoy a rich breakfast in Ufaa restaurant. A brandnew holiday is just beginning, and everything you just experienced by the sea has become an unforgettable part of your memory.
