Set to become one of 2024’s most sought-after destinations for castaway escapes, today marks the official launch of ‘RAAYA by Atmosphere’. This is the ninth Atmosphere Core resort in the Maldives and the third property under the ‘Atmosphere Hotels & Resorts’ brand, joining the ranks of award-winning Maldivian sister resorts ‘Atmosphere Kanifushi’ and ‘VARU by Atmosphere’.
RAAYA by Atmosphere is a natural sanctuary almost entirely dedicated to lush greenery, pristine white beaches, and a tropical forest canopy teeming with wildlife. Only a small part of the island is designated for living space, showcasing the resort’s commitment to ecological harmony and its deep connection with nature.
Simplicity is the key to a memorable island vacation at RAAYA by Atmosphere. Guests can enjoy a hassle-free experience where the only decision to make is which of the several outlets to eat, drink, relax, and have fun in. The exclusive RAAYA Plan™ covers all usual holiday additions, including seaplane transfers, spa treatments, and sea excursions, along with delightful extras not typically found in all-inclusive packages. This comprehensive holiday plan blends world-class cuisine, premium beverages, spa and wellness therapies, ocean experiences, and curated artistic interludes with endless activities, sports, and games.
General Manager Philippe Claverotte elaborates on the unique island concept, saying, “At RAAYA by Atmosphere, there is a guest experience like no other, a balance of escapism and energy. Our island is deeply rooted in personal expression, and we intend to create moments of happiness in all corners.

The journey to RAAYA by Atmosphere starts with a 45-minute seaplane adventure, offering guests breathtaking views of the archipelago’s unique atoll vistas. This experience, transitioning from deep ocean blues to the lightest tropical turquoise reefs, is the perfect way to feel the Maldives' genuine sense of arrival into paradise.
