Raffles Maldives Meradhoo Resort
Island overview
This uniquely idyllic resort brings the legendary service of Raffles, host to the well-travelled since 1887, to Gaafu Alifu, one of the world’s largest and most remote natural atolls. The result is a resort like no other. On this tranquil haven, unparalleled Raffles luxury whispers like a breeze across lush greenery and white sands, creating a space in which to realign and feel in harmony with your surroundings. At the southern end of the Maldives, in the crystal waters of the Indian Ocean, lies a rare oasis: Raffles Maldives Meradhoo. On the natural island are the resort’s beach villas, just steps away from white sands and the wide Indian Ocean. Rooms are furnished in tones of soft sky blue and duck egg that reflect the natural beauty of their surroundings, with furnishings including the famous Raffles’ writer’s desk. Outside on the deck, a private pool and outdoor shower are perfect for temperate starry nights.The magnificent Raffles Royal Residence is also sited on the natural island. Alongside the villas sit the stunning Overwater Residence and Sunset Overwater Residence.
