Fairmont Maldives, Sirru Fen Fushi SHAVIYANI ATOLL, MALDIVES
Fairmont Maldives, Sirru Fen Fushi, which translates to ‘secret water island’ in the local Dhivehi language, truly lives up to its name. Located on the Shaviyani Atoll and home to one of the country’s largest resort lagoons and longest infinity pool, each of the 120 luxury villas features its own private pool for guests to make a splash. Stretching from one side of the island to
the other, the infinity pool leads guests to the Coralarium, the Maldives’ first and only coral regeneration project in the form of an underwater art installation by Jason deCaires Taylor. Inspired by the natural beauty of branching corals, the abstract sculptures act as an artificial reef, encouraging local marine life to thrive here. Back on dry land, head for the resort’s new
Sustainability Lab, where waste is turned into wonder. The first of its kind in the Maldives, the lab acts as a hub of eco-education, where guests can create bespoke souvenirs and unique items from plastic washed ashore and collected from the surrounding ocean. The resort has also partnered with seven local schools in the Shaviyani Aroll
for the Fairmont Award Scheme, whereby the sustainability team will visit the schools to teach classes on recycling, marine biodiversity, climate change and ocean conservation. Guests are also invited to sail away to a nearby
deserted island for a romantic picnic for two, join a sunset dolphin cruise aboard a private yacht or experience an array of exhilarating watersports. The resort’s immersive kids’ club allows parents and grandparents to relax in the knowledge the children are being looked after. The Fairmont Spa is set in the heart of the
island and provides an array of wellness offerings. From the tranquil waters of the Indian Ocean to the fragrant herbs grown in Maldivian gardens, the menu is a selection of treatments that are authentically connected to local island culture. From traditional ayurveda experiences to a full body exfoliation and massage with coconut oil, there’s a treatment to cater to all. Those looking to reconnect the body and mind can opt for a range of yoga classes, be it sun rise sessions on the expansive pavilion or aerial yoga in the studio.
