Getting there:

Male International Airport (MLE) is the main international airport in the Maldives. Upon arrival, you’ll be escorted by your resort-appointed GEM  (Guest Experience Maker) to the domestic terminal lounge to take a short, scenic 35-minute flight to Laamu’s Kadhdhoo Airport with a fascinating bird’s-eye view of the beautiful Maldives Archipelago. From there it’s a 15-minute speedboat trip to the resort.


Curated Experience

There’s only one reason to leave the resort, a private picnic on a deserted island. Just a 40-minute speedboat ride away, the resort’s chefs will prepare a romantic picnic lunch complete with champagne and dessert that you can enjoy under the shade of the coconut trees. Afterward, snorkel the stunning lagoon surrounding the island or relax by the stunning beach on a sun lounger.
