🌴 W Maldives: luxury holiday in the heart of the Indian Ocean
The house reef of Fesdhoo Island is recognized as one of the best in the Maldives. The combination of active underwater inhabitants, the unique bottom topography and the beauty of the landscape makes this place especially attractive.
The entire island is occupied by the W Maldives resort, which provides ideal conditions for exploring the ocean. True connoisseurs of water sports and entertainment will definitely not be bored here.
Location
Fesdhu Island is located in North Ari Atoll. You can get to it from Velana International Airport in Male by seaplane. The cost depends on the age of the passenger: children under 2 years old – free, under 12 years old – $298, adults – $595.
Housing
Those wishing to relax on Fesdhu Island can choose one of 77 villas of six types – beach villas, located on the white sand along the lagoon, or water villas, installed on stilts above the ocean. The first ones are ideal for those who like to walk on soft sand to the sound of the waves. The second ones were created for those who are ready to plunge into the water right from the doorstep.
A comfortable terrace and swimming pool are a pleasant addition to your villa stay. Stylish, comfortable rooms combine innovative design ideas with traditional tropical island elements.
Another interesting option is to stay on the separate wild island of Gaatafushi, which belongs to W Maldives. Feel like a real Robinson Crusoe and spend a few days in a tropical paradise, exploring the picturesque lagoon. Book the island for a romantic night in a villa under the stars or fun parties with friends.
Entertainment
Don't miss the opportunity to explore the W Maldives house reef, ideal for snorkeling.
A cruise on the private yacht W Maldives Escape will give you a special experience. This luxury ship, 24 meters long and 6 meters wide, will take you to the most picturesque corners of the ocean. Grab your snorkeling or diving gear from Wave Water Sports Center and experience this tropical paradise.
Swim to your heart's content during the day or dive at night to see the underwater world come to life as the sun goes down. It’s easy to spot stingrays, turtles and even whale sharks near the island. And the abundance of underwater caves will turn an ordinary swim into an exciting spectacle. If you don't want to dive, join one of the many dolphin or whale watching cruises.
A sunset cruise is the perfect trip for lovers of romantic evenings. While sailing, your personal chef will prepare your favorite dishes and serve them with a chilled glass of wine. Or go wind surfing and enjoy the breeze over the turquoise ocean. Explore the waters surrounding the resort or take a jet ski excursion to the nearby uninhabited islands.
