Here, on two islands surrounded by the crystalline Indian Ocean and unspoiled house reefs with incredible marine life, it is easy to forget the world outside.

In its remote location on the southern tip of the Maldives archipelago, Raffles Maldives Meradhoo is as far away from the rhythm of everyday life as can be. Here, on two islands surrounded by the crystalline Indian Ocean and unspoiled house reefs with incredible marine life, it is easy to forget the world outside. Each island offers an ideal setting for exclusive private bookings, from dream weddings to special family gatherings.
One of the islands houses 16 overwater villas, an overwater restaurant and the main pool and bar; the other features 22 villas on the beach, including the soon-to-be-completed Presidential Suite. All of the spacious villas, in palettes that soothe the senses, are equipped with luxury amenities and breathtaking views. Nature provides an even more dramatic backdrop for stays in the overwater villas and residences, where you can step directly from your terrace into the dazzling marine world of the lagoon. Raffles’ legendary butler service is discreet, intuitive and gracious, whether you wish to plan a diving trip or have champagne delivered as you watch the sun dip below the endless horizon.
Island dining also celebrates the natural beauty of the surroundings, from the romantic overwater setting of Yuzu, where the chefs blend traditional Peruvian dishes with influences from Japan to capture the diversity of Nikkei cuisine, to The Firepit, which brings the art of cooking over flames to the island’s white sands. For the ultimate private dining experience, you can be delivered to the nearby sandbank by speedboat or jet ski to enjoy a menu of your own design and then collected a few hours later. And, should even more relaxation be in order, wellness treatments are on offer at the island’s overwater spa.
A location this beautiful and unspoiled demands attention to conservation, and the resort has made a commitment to sustainability. Initiatives include a chef’s garden, a reverse osmosis system, a ban on plastic straws and villa amenities that are 99 percent free of plastic. An on-site marine biologist formally trains the resort’s one-of-a-kind marine butlers on the protection of sea life so that they can share this knowledge with guests on guided snorkeling trips of the house reef.
