Waldorf Astoria Maldives Ithaafushi

Three interconnected islands combine to form a retreat comprising communal areas and guest villas, alongside a private islet that provides absolute seclusion. The interiors strike a balance between intimate, softly hued spaces rooted in local tradition, and a direct connection to the wild outdoor environment. This ethos extends to the spa, housed in its own dedicated pavilion, where ocean-facing spaces welcome the natural elements to shape bespoke treatments individually composed for each guest. The Waldorf Astoria’s ten restaurants offer a diverse culinary journey, ranging from fine international dining and Shanghainese influences to Levantine dreams and minimalist Japanese cuisine.
