Historical

The Raffle hotels and resorts began in 1887 with the opening of the first Raffles hotel in Singapore. However, the company started to expand internationally in the late 90s. In May 2019, Raffles announced the beginning of the 21-villa beach Island Experience at Gaafu Alifu Atoll's rare Maldives Oasis. This is Accor's fourth facility in the Maldives and the first under the Raffles brand.

The private palm island features 21 villas, a world-class spa, beachfront restaurants, and a dive center for beach lovers. Additionally, a moment away by boat, Raffles Maldives Meradhoo's Overwater Island experience, which opened in September 2019, completes the picture.

Location

This unique and idyllic resort brings the outstanding service of Raffles to Gaffu Alifu, one of the largest islands in the world. Gaafu Alifu is at the southernmost tip of the Maldives. However, you can reach there by a 55 minutes domestic flight from the Male International Airport. Or, just a 15 minutes speedboat ride from Kaadedhdhoo Airport.
