About this resort
The pioneer of barefoot luxury in the Maldives, set on a lush jungle island in the Baa Atoll UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Soneva Fushi's sand-floored villas, many with private pools, slides and water-villa configurations, sit beneath canopies of mature palms. Cinema Paradiso (open-air over-water cinema), Out of the Blue (six-restaurant complex), an observatory and a chocolate room are just the beginning. Hanifaru Bay manta encounters are minutes away in season.
