ananea Madivaru Maldives 

Unspoilt lagoon paradise

You’ll always only be a few steps from the sandy beach or crystal-clear waters of the lagoon at this luxury resort.

Get two for the price of one with this resort, spanning across two islands that are connected by an overwater walkway. Embodying the typical style of a Maldivian island, you can’t go wrong with everything this resort has to offer. Situated in a vast lagoon with a marine life rich house reef on the outer rims inviting all the keen snorkellers to take a closer look, or if you are looking just for a bit of R&R then the endless stretches of white sandy beach make this the perfect match. Brand new for 2025, this is not one to be missed.
