Huvafen Fushi carries its greatest promise prominently in its name: Dream Island is the name of this resort in the Maldives, which surpasses any fantasized paradise.
Nowhere is it easier to switch off and wind down than in the Maldives. As if the blue water and the vastness of the Indian Ocean weren’t reason enough to jump on a plane straight away, the Huvafen Fushi resort gives us yet another reason to treat ourselves to a break here. Underwater fanatics are quickly won over by the colorful underwater world, the world’s only underwater spa at a depth of eight meters and the opportunity to dine in the Latitude 4° underwater restaurant while curious fish do their rounds in front of the glass. The white sandy beach and the shady palm fronds are just as inviting for lazing around as the elongated infinity pool, where the expertly mixed cocktails taste twice as good.
Bungalows and pavilions for more privacy
The bungalows and pavilions offer more privacy and are located on the beach and in the lagoon with their own pool for splashing around. Wherever you look, you will encounter minimalist island design. The latter also runs through the six restaurants and bars at Huvafen Fushi. Fresh pizzas are served at Forno, Salt offers trendy Japanese menus with dishes to rival any work of art, and RAW caters for the particularly health-conscious. Whether the latter spend their days with massages and treatments in the Huvafen Spa, a snorkeling trip to the reef in front of the island or days spent soaking up the sun is up to their mood – just as it should be in paradise.
Huvafen Fushi
Huvafen Fushi is just a stone’s throw away from Malé by speedboat. In the middle of the North Malé Atoll, surrounded by turquoise blue water, 44 bungalows and pavilions await us, all equipped with their own pool and with a view of the beach, the lagoon or the water. At the Huvafen Spa, you can have your worries kneaded out of your shoulders – and under water to boot! Water rats will be happy snorkeling and diving or trying out all kinds of water sports, as everything from kayaks to catamarans are available for fun. The six restaurants and bars will get culinary enthusiasts’ stomachs growling: Celsius serves international cuisine right on the beach, while the pizza oven is in full swing at Forno and Japanese cuisine is celebrated at Salt. RAW serves up healthy food while you look out over the water and think about which cocktail to enjoy in the UMBar today. Attention wine lovers: Over 6,000 wines are waiting to be discovered at Vinum.
