The Residence Maldives

The Residence Maldives is situated on Falhumaafushi, a pristine island in the Gaafu Alifu Atoll, and offers an oasis of sun-kissed beaches and crystal clear waters.  The resort is reached via a scenic 55 minute flight and then a short speedboat transfer.

Accommodation & Facilities
The 94 villas draw their inspiration from the beautiful surroundings and feature thatched roofs, natural materials and lush fabrics.  Classic yet modern in style, with high ceilings and French windows, each airy, light filled room has stunning 360-degree views.  Bespoke furnishings, accented with local artefacts and wall art, sit comfortably alongside the modern creature comforts that are standard in all villas.  Guests can choose from beach-front or over-water villas.  Three restaurants offer everything from fine dining and gastronomic delights to light bites in a variety of settings. For a real Robinson Crusoe experience it’s possible to arrange a castaway picnic on a private island.

Activities
The spa sits at the end of a private jetty overlooking the lagoon and offers an array of holistic treatments and pampering massages.  The vibrant reefs and lagoons on the atoll are home to many untouched dive sites, suitable for all levels of divers.   Snorkelling, sailing, windsurfing, kayaking and paddle boarding are all available along with motorised watersports such as water skiing, jet skiing, dolphin cruises and visits to isolated islands and local villages.  The kids’ club caters for children aged three to 12 and is a great place for younger guests to make friends and be entertained with daily games, crafts and activities.
