The lagoon
Mask, snorkel, and the turtles are waiting a few strokes away.
Maldives
A 6- to 12-month internship in a resort set on its own atoll, housed, fed, with an allowance. The lagoon begins where your shift ends.
Why the Maldives
A whole island becomes your home and your school.
Made to measure, as standard
Every villa has its butler, every guest a first name. You learn the most attentive service in the trade.
The lagoon as your horizon
Turquoise at every break, white sand beneath the walkway. A backdrop nobody ever tires of.
Life on the island
You live on site with the brigade. A swim before your shift, a sunset after it.
English every day
A close-knit team from all over the world. English settles in before you even notice.
Not to be missed
Your days off have plans of their own.
The sandbanks
A tongue of white sand adrift in the blue, and nothing else.
After dark
Plankton lights up along the shore, the Milky Way does the rest.
The best window
November to April
The weather
Endless blue skies over the lagoon, a glassy sea.
The crowds
Each resort has its own atoll, privacy is the rule.
