소네바 푸시

Soneva Fushi is the original resort that started it all for the Soneva brand and the birthplace of the Maldives' barefoot luxury philosophy. Renovated in 2020, it has taken its sustainable luxury experience to new heights. The resort is located in the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve of Baa Atoll, reachable by a 30-minute seaplane or 25-minute domestic flight plus 15-minute speedboat. The island is exceptionally large — one of the few big islands in the Maldives — with 70 villas scattered throughout dense tropical jungle, each one a secluded sanctuary. Soneva Fushi's guiding philosophy is 'No News, No Shoes' — upon arrival, guests kick off their shoes, set aside their devices, and truly immerse themselves in nature. Five of the six rating dimensions — lagoon, beach, family-friendliness, photography, and honeymoon — all score a perfect 5 out of 5. The island's most legendary features are its observatory and open-air cinema, where dining or watching films under the stars is an experience found nowhere else. Four restaurants serve organic, health-conscious cuisine with all ingredients sourced from the island's own organic garden. The kids' club is first-rate, and an overwater slide is a hit with young guests. Private butler service is meticulous, and a Chinese-speaking team is available. The PADI dive center is highly professional, while glass floors and overwater hammocks add romantic touches. Soneva Fushi offers a full range of meal plans — BB, HB, FB, and AI — to suit every preference.
