Gili Lankanfushi Maldives
For guests looking for the ultimate in barefoot luxury, Gili Lankanfushi is as good as it gets. Relaxation is key, but this does not impact the high level of service, which is one of the reasons why it was previously placed in the ‘Top five best hotels in the world’ by Trip Advisor.
The resort is passionate about responsible tourism. To preserve their surroundings, they are committed to achieving the best practices of environmental and social sustainability.
Guests can embark on their own Gili Wellness journey, with tailored treatments to relax, retreat and rejuvenate, which all takes place in the overwater treatment rooms.
For the more active guests, there is a diving school, tennis facilities with an in-house pro and a surf school with three of the best breaks in the country within a five minute boat away.
The food served on the island is outstanding, with chefs taking the guests on a journey using flavours from around the world. For a truly different experience, there is an underground cellar which is reached by a glass staircase. Guests can indulge in a tasting menu whilst being surrounded by more than 500 varieties of wine from a number of international regions, and being led by the expert sommelier.
The villa suites and residences are all situated over water and are vast in size. Guests will enjoy the freedom of their own private sundeck and there is even a hidden rooftop deck with daybeds. Each room has its own butler, called a ‘Mr Friday’ that will see to everything the guests require. For an even more private experience, guests can book into a Crusoe Residence which is only accessible by boat.
