ISLAND & OVERWATER · FIVE STARS

Soneva Fushi

The original Soneva island in Baa Atoll: jungle villas, overwater retreats with ocean slides, and an observatory beneath some of the Maldives' darkest skies.

The island where barefoot luxury began

Soneva Fushi sits on Kunfunadhoo, a private island in Baa Atoll, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve on the Maldives' northern reaches. This is the island where Soneva's own idea of barefoot luxury first took shape, with villas set back from the sand within dense jungle rather than lined up along it.

Wooden pathways link jungle villas, overwater retreats with slides into the lagoon, and signature estates built for large families, while more than a dozen dining concepts, an open-air observatory and the Soneva Soul wellbeing centre keep grown-ups occupied long after the children have gone quiet.
