The detail and effort that has gone into the natural design of Soneva Fushi is so impressive. Stopping to relax at one of the deserted beaches, you'll find a chair carved from a giant tree trunk. Even artwork located around the resort has been created from recycled materials such as wine bottles. It truly is amazing both visually and environmentally.

Soneva Fushi's philosophy 'No news, No Shoes' is also fundamental to the experience they want to deliver. You’re encouraged to unwind and feel the sand between your toes. Soneva wants you to disconnect from the stresses of daily life and reconnect with the earth.

The service at Soneva Fushi is something that they are extremely proud of. Nothing is too difficult for the Soneva Fushi expert hosts and this really does set Soneva Fushi apart from other resorts.

For an island as spacious as Soneva Fushi, having only 63 beach villas and 8 water retreats means that the majority of the island is yours to explore. The villas are designed to feel like your very own ultimate luxury Robinson Crusoe escape and will surpass even your wildest of dreams.

Soneva Fushi has multiple dining options each with a unique setting. One night you might dine at Fresh in the Garden, set in the canopy of the trees and the next day have lunch at Out of the Blue, set over their turquoise lagoon with access to the house reef via a waterslide!

This resort is full of activities, even riding your bike to breakfast is an adventure. Soneva Fushi has an amazing house reef for snorkelling, an outdoor cinema Cinema Paradiso screening movies after sundown and even the Maldives' only Observatory to gaze at planets and stars after dinner.


VILLAS

Water Villa Jetty

Water Villa Jetty

The luxurious Water Retreats are simply breathtaking. Welcome to your home over water! A two-storey Robinson Crusoe private oasis, complete with water-slide. From the retracting roof over the master bed for star gazing to the dining table set over a glass bottom floor, these retreats are nothing other than spectacular.

What is so very special about Soneva Fushi is that their villas are all unique and there are so many combinations of room types to suit every type of holiday.

Each Beach Villa is extremely private, surrounded by lush palm jungle, with its own stretch of beautiful beach to enjoy. For the avid snorkelers, we will book you a villa on the sunset side, and for those wanting absolute privacy, we will book you on the sunrise side of the island.

Soneva Fushi believes that bathrooms are a place that should be luxurious which is why every villas’s bathroom is over-sized with indulgent features such a lounge, waterfall feature, open-air rain shower and soaker tub under the stars.


DINING

Soneva Fushi offers incredible dining experiences, all keeping with that castaway island feeling. The food is exceptional and they are extremely proud of their extensive organic garden which supports all of their restaurants. Soneva Fushi is a resort with a true conscience.

Out of the Blue is not just a restaurant but a place to retreat. Set over-water in Soneva Fushi’s stunning turquoise lagoon, Out of the Blue is a stunning place you can spend the day. It has a two-storey water slide which is the perfect way to enter their spectacular house reef. Choose to dine in one of many different locations in this beautiful over-water haven. The sunsets here are heaven on earth.

Fresh in the Garden has to be one of the most amazing restaurants you’ll ever experience. Built in the canopy of tropical banana trees and accessed by a swinging bridge, you will dine under the stars or surrounding the chefs at their cooking station watching them prepare these gourmet meals.

Fresh in the Garden is set in the tree canopy and accessed via a swinging bridge. After dinner stroll through the treetop walkway to the Observatory. On a clear night you can see Saturn.

If you prefer to escape to an uninhabited island, Sobah's Restaurant is a traditional Maldivian restaurant only 15 minutes by speedboat . This exclusive beach restaurant seats only 18 for dinner and includes an introduction to the beautiful star filled night sky from Soneva’s resident astronomer. Definitely an experience of a lifetime.

The main restaurant, Mihiree Mithaa (meaning ‘here it is’) has a glorious jungle feel with a natural sand based floor, white stucco walls and a gorgeous alfresco setting on the beach for breakfast. Mihiree Mithaa is exactly that, a beautiful restaurant set right on the beach. Down to Earth is a fantastic dining destination all about celebrating the sense of togetherness with loved ones by creating dishes designed for sharing.

Destination dining experiences here are delivered in true Soneva style. Families should try a gourmet sandbank picnic. Couples, a sandbank dinner where they can set up a luxury ‘tent’ complete with pillow topped bed to sleep on your deserted island.

ACTIVITIES

Soneva Fushi is one of the largest resort islands in the Maldives and with soft white sandy beaches and an iridescent aqua lagoon it’s yours to explore. In a very deserted island way, there are two huge beaches at different ends of the island with no villas around. Soneva Fushi is full of activities that you are encouraged to enjoy including a fantastic house reef for snorkelling.

Soneva Fushi’s Out of the Blue over-water area, provides a day-time haven to escape to. With a two-storey water-slide into the lagoon, it has the perfect access for an amazing house-reef snorkel. If you prefer a more relaxing day, enjoy the stunning view from the many different relaxation spots over the water, in the sun relaxing on a net, under an umbrella or dining Japanese style.

One of our favourite things to do is to take the water slide from Out of the Blue Restaurant to enter the house reef and go for a beautiful snorkel! At night, Cinema Paradiso and The Observatory are experiences that will leave you star struck!

Soneva Fushi’s outdoor cinema with cushioned lounges, Cinema Paradiso screens movies after sundown. After dinner one night make sure you visit the Maldives only Observatory with a high powered telescope to gaze at stars and planets. 

Soneva Fushi is a wonderful island for families with so many activities on offer including an amazing children’s club ‘The Den’. The Den is a child’s pure heaven. With an outdoor pirate ship, two swimming pools, one with water-slide, a Lego Room and a Dress-up Room, kids’ don’t want to leave! There’s also a kids’ only cinema, a library, learning area and musical instrument room (yes with drums they can use).

The Den has an extensive programme with each day themed full of different and amazingly planned events that you children will love. And on some evenings The Den even hosts fun activities like a movie under the stars, story time, a stargazing workshop and a beach party. 

Soneva Fushi is famous for the private excursions they offer. We can help you design the perfect Itinerary just for you!

Soneva Fushi Spa

The Soneva Fushi Six Senses Spa is set in a quiet and tranquil area. With jungle surrounding and water features to relax you, it offers a very calming experience. It’s the style of treatments and the natural products used here that make this unique to the Six Senses Spa. We recommend you book in for the steam and shower experience just prior to your treatment to enhance the benefits.

Indulge in one of the Slow Life Treatments that are unique to Soneva Fushi. We loved the Kurumbaa Kaashi Coconut Rub, with the coconut skin used as a natural scrub followed by an amazing organic honey and papaya wrap.
