Finolhu Maldives
The word ‘Finolhu’ translates into ‘Sandbank’, and the resort is home to the longest sandbank in the Maldives, which gives it the real WOW-factor connecting the main island to 3 smaller islands.
Located in the UNESCO biosphere of Baa Atoll, the stunning waters area a natural marine habitat for about 1200 reef species.
For those wanting to indulge in blissful relaxation, the Fehi spa offers a range of spa treatments, and couples can even book a romantic night to sleep under the stars in the beach bubble tent.
The beach bar is where all of the action happens, with laid back sounds playing throughout the day while you enjoy a cool cocktail. In the evening, the resort comes alive. Guests can enjoy live entertainment and fashionable DJ’s while feeling like they could be in Ibiza or Mykonos. There are also lots of activities on offer at the resort. Explore the waters with diving, snorkelling, dolphin cruises, motorised, and non-motorised water sports. On land, they can enjoy a beach cinema, yoga or tennis.
There are four beachside restaurants that offer a huge choice in delicious cuisine, which use the freshest of ingredients to create carefully crafted dishes. Guests can decide between a mix of international dishes, fine dining with an Asian focus, or a laid back Arabian grill serving meze style food. During the day, they can stroll from the mainland over the sandbank to enjoy dome shrimp and a cold glass of wine at the crab shack.
The resort is renowned for its high level of service and has something to cater for everyone.
