The property

The world's first underwater spa

Huvafen Fushi was the original Maldives lifestyle resort, and its firsts still define it: the underwater spa — two treatment rooms below the lagoon surface with the reef through the glass — and Vinum, a cellar dug beneath the island holding thousands of bottles. The infinity pool is lit with fibre optics after dark. It is small, adult in register and polished rather than barefoot.

What makes it itself

Why people choose it

  1. 01

    A full spa

    Treatments on the property — massage, steam room, sauna, so a bad-weather afternoon has somewhere to go.

  2. 02

    Diving and snorkelling

    Run from the resort, which matters here: the boat leaves from your own jetty rather than an hour up the coast.

  3. 03

    A small island

    44 rooms in total, so the beach never feels shared and the staff learn your name in a day or two.
