Overview

The W Maldives is a luxury private island playground, fringed by turquoise lagoons and breathtaking coral reefs. This island resort is known for its fun atmosphere, exceptional hospitality, stunning beaches and luxurious villas with private plunge pools. There’s a great choice of restaurants and bars featuring Southeast Asian-inspired ‘ocean to table’ cuisine, a first-rate overwater spa, an oceanfront infinity pool and a state-of-the-art diving centre on the island. Countless activities are on offer, too, including water sports, sunset yoga classes and snorkelling trips.

The resort is tucked away on the tropical Fesdu Island, in the middle of the Maldives’ North Ari Atoll. This area of the Indian Ocean is renowned for its incredible dive sites, which attracts manta rays, whale sharks, sea turtles and thousands of colourful fish. The resort also houses one of the best house reefs, which is ideal for swimming and snorkelling. Male International Airport is westwards, around a 25-minute seaplane journey away.

The spacious beach and overwater villas are decorated in an eclectic, rustic style with thatched roofs, tiled floors and marine-themed accents. They each boast a private sundeck with a plunge pool and direct access to the beach or lagoon. The Fabulous Overwater villas are spacious and open onto a fabulous overwater deck with a plunge pool and a ladder that leads into the ocean. You can upgrade to Wonderful Beach Oasis accommodation, which comprises a large bedroom and living area, a partially open-air bathroom and a dual-level deck with lower and upper-level spaces, located on the beachfront.
