Location

The paradise island of Kanifushi is located in the Lhaviyani Atoll, north of the main island of Malé. It is shaped like a golf club and is approximately three kilometers long and about 90 meters wide. The inner side of the atoll offers a palm-fringed, white dream beach directly on the turquoise lagoon, while the outer side has a rocky coral beach. The seaplane transfer from the international airport takes approximately 35 minutes.

Facilities

Modern hotel bar area with tall chandelier and wooden furniture under warm lighting.
Modern hotel bar with illuminated counter and seating at sunset overlooking the sea.
The luxurious 5* resort combines traditional Maldivian elements with natural materials from the tropical surroundings. The overall concept offers state-of-the-art comfort for discerning guests. The complex consists of 162 freestanding, stylishly designed villas and suites, mostly facing the sunset and with beach access on the inner side of the atoll. These are separated from each other by the tropical garden, thus offering unique privacy. At the "head" of the island on the inner side, you will find the main area of the island with a jetty, reception, and dive center. From there, you can reach the centrally located clubhouse as well as the kids' club. On the southern outer atoll side are "The Liquid" bar and the main restaurant "The Spice," which offers a wide selection of delicacies, as well as the large pool area, up to 50 meters long, with a bar. The inviting spa complex is just a stone's throw away. At the other end of the island, there is another pool (adults only) with a sunset bar and restaurant. Opposite, directly on the reef, are the specialty restaurants: "Just Veg" with vegetarian dishes and "Ceylon Bliss" with Sri Lankan cuisine and street-food style snacks served from a food truck.

**************************************
In the Maldives, washbasins or bathtubs/whirlpools may be openly integrated into the general living area of the hotel room without spatial separation.
****************************************
In the Maldives, most rooms are equipped with one or two queen/king-size beds. For a booking of 2 adults + 1 or 2 children, there may only be a total of 1 or 2 large beds available. Consequently, it may occur that with 2 adults + 1 or 2 children in one room, a child has to sleep in the parents' bed.
*************************************
Please note that rooms with direct pool/sea access can only be booked for travelers with children aged 7 and above for safety reasons.
