Le Meridien Maldives Resort & Spa LHAVIYANI ATOLL, MALDIVES
Nestled in the pristine Lhaviyani Atoll, Le Meridien Maldives Resort & Spa is a sanctuary of luxury and natural splendour. As a distinguished member of the Marriott International portfolio, this five-star resort has gained acclaim as a top destination in the Maldives, captivating those who crave both elegance and the serenity of a tropical paradise. Set on Thilamaafushi Island, Le Meridien
Maldives is a mere 35-minute seaplane flight from Velana International Airport. The island’s crystalline waters and vibrant marine life make it a dream for nature-lovers. The abundant marine turtles gracefully navigate these warm waters and promise snorkellers and divers an unforgettable experience. With some of the clearest skies in the Maldives, the resort is also perfect for stargazing, offering guests a celestial spectacle as night falls. Spanning 22 acres, the 134 villas — comprising
both overwater and beach options — boast mid- century design and a commitment to environmental harmony. The architecture celebrates traditional Maldivian styles while incorporating sustainable practices to minimise ecological impact.
Culinary delights are central to the resort’s
appeal. Guests can savour a range of dining experiences, from fresh produce grown in the resort’s hydroponic greenhouse to locally sourced seafood and global cuisine with Maldivian influences. The dining venues offer a tantalising mix of Mediterranean tapas, modern Japanese teppanyaki, premium steaks and locally sourced fish. For an exclusive experience, opt for private dining on the resort’s private island, Bodu Finlohu, or on the beach under the stars. The resort’s array of facilities ensures a perfect
blend of relaxation and adventure. The Explore Spa by Le Meridien, an overwater haven, offers an extensive selection of ayurvedic treatments with spectacular views through glass-panelled floors. For thrill-seekers, the dive centre provides access to some of the world’s most remarkable underwater environments, including vibrant coral reefs and diverse marine life. Water sports enthusiasts can choose from snorkelling, kayaking, paddleboarding and jet skiing, while a fitness centre and yoga pavilion cater to those wishing to stay active.
