The Desert Island Paradise in Maldives

Nestled on Furanafushi is this tropical island paradise surrounded by a shimmering turquoise lagoon, pristine white sands and swaying palms. Step into a luxurious garden just 15 minutes ride from Velana International Airport.

The Sheraton Full Moon & Spa Resort has undergone a £15 million renovation and boasts seven restaurants yet, with 176 rooms, things never felt crowded. Choose from over 10 accommodation options, from a simple deluxe to exclusive water suites.

The resort is adding a luxury spa on its own adjacent islet. Masterful Thai masseuses guide you to your own villa before giving you the Shine Spa for Sheraton treatment. Here you’ll be kneaded with the sound of the waves crashing on the reef outside.

There’s an array of activities, from fishing trips to picnics on the fleeting sandbanks which appear daily near the island. Or you can set off on a sunset cruise and watch the magnificent sight of dolphins.
