Meyyafushi Maldives is a five-star Premium All-Inclusive resort located on a natural island in Lhaviyani Atoll. The resort is accessible by a 35-minute seaplane journey from Velana International Airport and offers 95 villas and suites with private pools.
Its facilities include Bubble Underwater Restaurant, an overwater padel tennis court, mini-bowling lanes, water suites with slides and a rooftop bar featuring a glass-bottom infinity pool and sunken seating. Its food and beverage portfolio also includes Mediterranean and Asian restaurants, teppanyaki, all-day dining, a 24-hour café and in-villa dining.
