It’s got everything you expect it to, plus it’s set in a UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve, to which you’ll arrive by private seaplane;
“At this scale, it doesn't feel as crowded as other resorts, and the bungalows -- most ensconced in gated enclosures, are more private than elsewhere.”
“The expansive resort sets itself apart with modern, sustainable design inspired by Moroccan, Malaysian, Mediterranean and Maldivian influences.”
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Set in the protected Baa Atoll Biosphere Reserve, the island offers direct access to vibrant coral reefs and the manta rays of Hanifaru Bay.
The rooms
Beach villas sit secluded within walled garden compounds, while overwater bungalows feature private plunge pools, hammocks, and glass viewing floor panels.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The 50-meter Olympic-sized infinity pool borders the beach, lined with thatched cabanas and timber loungers.
The spa
Ayurvedic treatments unfold in overwater pavilions fitted with glass floor panels for watching reef life below.
The gym
Full-length garden windows border the fitness center, which houses rows of cardio machines and strength equipment.
Restaurant
Al Barakat
Lit by lanterns and flaming torches, the overwater rooftop serves Lebanese and Moroccan dishes above the lagoon.
Resting on the pristine shores of Baa Atoll, a UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve, Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Landaa Giraavaru showcases wellness, conservation and luxury island living.
Blu Beach Club & Restaurant
Southern Italian dishes are served barefoot on sand floors looking out toward the island's western sandbank.
