RAA ATOLL · FIVE STARS

InterContinental Maldives Maamunagau Resort

A private island in Raa Atoll, 35 minutes by seaplane, where a juvenile manta ray feeding ground lies inside the house reef and every villa includes Club InterContinental benefits.

An island built around its lagoon

InterContinental Maldives Maamunagau Resort occupies a private island in Raa Atoll, a 35-minute seaplane flight from Malé. The lagoon that rings the island is unusually large, and from December to April it draws juvenile manta rays in to feed, a discovery that led the resort to base a Manta Trust research team here in 2019.

Villas run from compact overwater pool suites to multi-bedroom beachfront residences, and every category carries Club InterContinental privileges as standard, from a private lounge to daily afternoon tea. Five restaurants, an overwater AVI Spa and a resident marine biology team round out an island that treats its reef as seriously as its rooms.
