Commis 1 Waldorf Astoria Maldives Ithaafushi

Job description

Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts is Hilton’s luxury brand of iconic hotels committed to personal service and culinary excellence in landmark locations around the world.

Each property delivers unforgettable experiences and offers a strong sense of arrival with impressive public spaces worthy of hosting history.

Guests can expect True Waldorf Service from the moment they reserve their stay to the moment they leave the property doorstep.

Waldorf Astoria Maldives Ithaafushi made a wow debut in 2019 and is already recognized as one of the finest resorts in the world.

Sprawled across three islands, the resort is one of the most sizable in the Maldives.

It boasts the country’s largest spa, extensive recreation facilities and it’s the Maldives resort with the most culinary choices (an impressive 11 specialty cuisine dining options).

Besides its 118 luxurious villas, the resort is also home to an exclusive offering: a private island, the largest in the country which is to be rented out in its entirety.

Once you get a glimpse of this one of its kind resort, you know you arrived to a sun-soaked paradise.

Luxurious villas act as vast private indoor-outdoor playgrounds, each featuring its own private pool.

Everywhere you look, from the standalone villa bathtub to the glass-bottomed floors in the spa’s treatment pavilions, the azure water steals the show.
