Meyyafushi Maldives Opens Its Doors, Redefining the Luxury All-Inclusive Experience
Meyyafushi Maldives is pleased to announce that it has opened its doors to guests, marking the beginning of a new era in luxury all-inclusive experiences in the Maldives. The five-star resort, situated on a beautiful natural island in Lhaviyani Atoll and close to world-famous dive sites, opened its doors to the first guests on 1st November 2025. Conceptualized as an eco-sensitive retreat, Meyyafushi combines luxurious sophistication with a deep sense of connection—to nature, wellness, and unforgettable experiences.
Accessible in just a 35-minute seaplane ride from Velana International Airport, the resort boasts 94 luxurious villas and suites with private pools. Meyyafushi Maldives achieves a perfect harmony between peaceful seclusion and thrilling adventure, offering experiences that are simply unmatched in the Maldives. These include the interactive underwater restaurant Bubble, the overwater padel tennis court, the mini bowling alley, and the adults-only Sky Bar & Sunken Lounge topped with a breathtaking glass-bottom infinity pool.
Wellness is at the heart of the island experience. The overwater Veyoge Spa is a deeply rejuvenating retreat featuring aerial yoga, holistic body treatments, and therapies rooted in ancient Maldivian healing traditions. Guests can also indulge in a 24-hour. Eating at Meyyafushi is meant to be a culinary journey around the world and through different environments. Breakfasts start at Fili, the all-day dining restaurant, which offers a huge breakfast spread with international twists. Thaana offers sophisticated Mediterranean cuisine, while Alif takes guests on a culinary journey through modern Asian cuisine. Hatharu Dhan, which translates to “24 hours” in Dhivehi, is a casual eatery offering specialty coffee, iced lattes, and snacks in a laid-back jungle environment that operates 24/7.
For guests who enjoy dramatic dining experiences, Sukun offers interactive Teppanyaki dining, while Bubble offers gourmet dining with the added thrill of dining in an underwater setting. Wine connoisseurs can retreat to Raa, a cozy wine cellar offering carefully selected wine options. As the sun goes down, the island comes alive at Baa, the resort’s lively main bar, Raagu for sunset cocktails, and the Sky Bar & Sunken Lounge, an exclusive adults-only bar that offers a luxurious rooftop experience with breathtaking views. In-villa dining is also available for guests who wish to enjoy world-class cuisine in the privacy of their own villas.
Design is a key element of the resort’s identity. The resort’s sculptural architecture, dramatic dining concepts, and custom-designed interior.
The villas themselves range from 185 to 610 square metres and are designed with understated elegance in mind. High ceilings, warm natural textures, soft golden accents, and carefully curated interiors create an atmosphere that feels both luxurious and inviting. Seamless indoor-outdoor living and generous layouts offer privacy without isolation, while personalised butler service ensures discreet, intuitive care throughout each stay. Meyyafushi was created to deliver experiences guests simply won’t find anywhere else in the Maldives,” said Ahmed Siaar, Cluster General Manager. “From the architecture to the facilities, every detail has been designed to feel distinctive and visually memorable, while maintaining the warmth and exceptional service our guests expect.”
Meyyafushi is the sister resort to the award-winning Fushifaru Maldives, building upon the same operational expertise and guest-focused philosophy that has earned international recognition. While introducing a bold, design-forward identity of its own, Meyyafushi continues a legacy of Maldivian hospitality rooted in quality, innovation, and meaningful guest experiences. Beyond its luxury offering, the resort remains guided by its BeKind values—embracing eco-conscious practices, community engagement, and thoughtful hospitality. These principles are seamlessly woven into daily operations, ensuring that indulgence and responsibility exist in harmony.
