First luxury 'Glamping' experience in the Maldives

Escape to a brand new island sanctuary. Located in one of the largest lagoons in the Maldives, Fairmont Maldives Sirru Fen Fushi is a luxury all-villa resort bordered by natural mangrove forests and soft white-sand beaches overlooking an endless turquoise sea. 

Relax and unwind in the natural elegance and rustic chic of the resort’s spacious beach and water villas, all featuring an outdoor bathroom, a private pool, butler service and a choice of either a stunning sunrise or sunset view. Or, for a unique tropical escape, be one of the first to try the Maldives’ first glamping experience in a luxury tented jungle villa. Sample the delectable cuisine in the resort's three incredible restuarants from fresh seafood at AZURE to Japanese tapas at KATA - complete with rooftop bar for artisan cocktails as the sun sets.

Discover a range of unrivaled experiences and activities to suit every kind of traveller. Couples will love sailing away on a champagne sunset dolphin cruise aboard the resort’s own private yacht, or having a dedicated chef prepare a private BBQ under a canopy of stars. Families can spend time together diving or snorkeling in the pristine 9km long house reef that surrounds the resort or kids and teenagers can spend time in the fantastically deisgned Kids Club / Teen Hangout while parents indulge in a traditional Ayurveda treatment in the Willow Steam Spa or simply relax by the a 200-metre long swimming pool which traverses the length of the island.    

  • All 128 spacious Beach & Water Villas feature private pools
  • Luxury Jungle Tented Villas - the Maldives first 'Glamping' experience
  • Dive in the 9km house reef surrounding the island
  • Indulge in a traditional Ayurveda treatment in the Willow Steam Spa
  • Dine around the resort's three restaurants on half board basis
  • Impeccable 'your-wish-is-our-command' service

Out of this world.

Plovdiv, Bulgaria

This probably the best resort we've stayed in so far. The villas are nothing short of amazing. The service is excellent. The food is so good that's it's hard to believe. The pool is breathtaking. The only non-perfect area is the sea, which doesn't offer a lot of snorkeling, as the sea life is scarce, but we still saw couple of turtles and a huge stingray. If you're not so much into snorkeling, you can't go wrong with this Fairmont. We were pampered from the minute we arrived to the minute we left. We spent most of our time at the pool, as it was better than swimming in the sea. Staff was also amazing - talkative when they see you're in the mood, discreet when they sense you just want to chill out. Special thanks to Barry, the food and beverage manager - I don't know where he gets this food from, but I've never seen such high quality buffet. We already recommended this resort to all our friends and we hope we will be back some day.

Hong Kong, China

This is the best place I have been to so far. We enjoyed every moment here. The sea is so incredibly beautiful that you couldn’t stop staring at it. The overwater villa is amazing especially the outdoor area, we spent a lot of time sunbathing outside. The staff here are all very warm and nice, most of them recognise us during our stay, made us felt like home. Especially our villa host Arai, she always greets us with warm smile every time she came pick us up. We also had great conversation. Thank you! We visited the spa 3 times, highly recommend. We also joined scuba diving session, the instructor took care of us very well, also recommended. Lastly, all restaurants here have stunning sea views, we especially loved Azue. The food in Kata is not very impressive though, it was not authentic Japanese food. You may consider hiring a Japanese chef or change the restaurant to Thai food coz Japanese food maybe too difficult to manage. Room service food also need improvement too. Thank you Fairmont for this perfect vacation, we already started to plan our next visit!

Reservations are required but are easily made through your villa's butler service.

KATA – Flavours Of Japan

The resort's signature Japanese restaurant is a sleek, contemporary dining room, set across two floors celebrating the sophistication of Pan-Asian flavours.
