Located in the stunning Lhaviyani Atoll, just a 35-minute seaplane from the Velana International Airport, Fushifaru is nestled between a Marine Protected Area and three of the Maldives‘ most iconic dive sites. This makes the chic, boutique resort perfect for guests looking to dive into the azure waters of the Indian Ocean, or, as Fushifaru puts it: “discover life above and under the water line.” Guests can enjoy a true, authentic Maldivian experience, with outstanding hospitality, unforgettable dining experiences, luxury accommodation and breathtaking scenery. Are you searching for a private, serene hideaway on a paradise island? Then look no further.
Accommodation at Fushifaru comprises 63 beach and water villas, dotted around the island in scenic spots along the white sand beach and over the lagoon.

The beach villas are ideally located with stunning views of the sunset and sunrise. Water villas, perched over the crystal clear water, come with either a private pool or Jacuzzi. Duplex villas meanwhile offer two bedroom accommodation ideally suited to families.
Fushifaru boasts three restaurants allowing guests to enjoy an excellent range cuisine on the island. Korakali serves a breakfast buffet as well as international dishes for lunch and dinner, while Raakani offers an elegant surf and turf experience. Guests looking for food and entertainment in one will love Teppanyaki, boasting live music, show cooking and outstanding beef, seafood and Japanese dishes. The Fanihandhi and Thundi bars meanwhile are the perfect spot to relax with a cocktail or glass of wine and soak up the Maldivian sun.

Guests may even opt to sleep under the stars following a romantic dinner on the sandbank.
Guests can walk around Fushifaru island in around 15 minutes, but despite its size, the island boasts an excellent range of facilities. The Heylhi Spa is the perfect place to relax and rejuvenate with a range of holistic therapies and massages, using locally sourced natural ingredients. There is a multipurpose court set up for tennis and football, along with a fitness centre and yoga classes for those looking to keep active.

The biggest draw at Fushifaru is the Indian Ocean itself!

The island’s dive program offers 21 diverse dive sites, with one of the best being just five minutes from the island. Water sports, including parasailing, kite surfing, kayaking and jet skis are available.
