If you are lucky enough to experience a vacation to the Maldives, there is one hotel you may want to add to your bucket list. One Maldives luxury resort is recognized as being the 'Hotel Instagram of the year' for a very good reason.

If you don't already follow the Waldorf Astoria Maldives Ithaafushi Instagram page, you may want to start. This luxury resort is oozing with tropical vibes, gorgeous sunsets, and luxurious amenities. The official account of the Waldorf Astoria Maldives Ithaafushi is filled with breathtakingly beautiful pictures that basically transport you to the wondrous island, and you don't even have to buy a plane ticket.

According to Forbes, the annual Star Awards is when Forbes Travel Guides editorial department nominates five nominees based on the highest-performing luxury hotel posts. This is not only determined by looks alone, but a few aspects are taken into effect. The team seeks out feeds that are not only aesthetically pleasing but that engage their audience and "spur wanderlust," as stated by Forbes. After the team selects those five feeds, followers were encouraged to vote on their favorite in an online poll.

Waldorf Astoria Maldives Ithaafushi isn't just a pretty face; this luxury resort offers enough for adventure seekers and laid-back travelers. Whether you choose to rest in a beachside hammock, dine in a bamboo pod with fine cuisine and panoramic views, or paddle away to the Stella Maris Ocean Villa duplexes for a secluded getaway, the Waldorf Astoria Maldives Ithaafushi appears to be a dream destination.

The island itself is set upon the most gorgeous turquoise waters and picturesque sunsets so it's easy to see why Instagram followers fell in love with the Maldives Ithaafushi resort. Known as the most sizable resort in the Maldives, Ithaafushi resort made its debut in 2019 and is sprawled across three islands. Some of the resort's most favorite features include the country’s largest spa, eleven impressive restaurants, villa bathtubs, and glass-bottomed floors in the spa’s treatment pavilions. If that isn't enough, the resort is also home to a separate private island that could be rented out in its entirety, as reported in Forbes Travel Guide.

The other highest-performing luxury hotel posts that were nominated by Forbes Travel Guide include Airelles Gordes, La Bastide in the French Riviera; Condado Vanderbilt Hotel in Puerto Rico; Four Seasons Resort Orlando at Walt Disney World Resort; and Grand Hotel Tremezzo in Lake Como.
