Dhigali

Location
Set in the remote Raa Atoll, Dhigali feels wonderfully cut off from the world, yet is just a scenic seaplane or speedboat ride away from Malé. The house reef is close to shore, so you can slip straight into the water and find yourself surrounded by tropical marine life.

Rooms
Dhigali’s 180 villas and suites feel fresh and modern, with clean lines, natural tones, and plenty of space to unwind. Whether you choose a beach villa shaded by palms, a lagoon villa perched above the water, or an overwater suite with its own pool, you’ll have a front-row seat to the island’s beauty.

Amenities
There’s a relaxed, all-embracing feel here, with three swimming pools, a serene jungle spa, and a choice of seven restaurants and bars serving everything from Maldivian specialities to wood-fired pizza. You’ll also find a well-equipped gym, kids’ club, and plenty of shaded spots to linger with a book and a drink.

Activities
Your days can be as easy or as adventurous as you like. Snorkel with manta rays, head out on a dolphin cruise, or try paddleboarding across the lagoon. We love the sandbank picnics for a true desert-island feel, while evenings often bring movie nights under the stars or simply the sound of the waves as you relax.

Sustainability
Dhigali takes its responsibility to the environment seriously, preserving much of its native jungle and running a biogas system that turns food waste into energy. The resort also supports local communities and uses eco-conscious materials, so you can enjoy your stay knowing the island’s beauty is being carefully protected.
