Raffles Maldives Meradhoo is a rare haven. In its remote location on the southern tip of the Maldives archipelago, it is as far away from the rhythm of everyday life as can be. Here, guests find their own rhythm. In harmony with nature, they relax, reconnect and realign. Surrounded by crystalline Indian Ocean waters home to unspoilt house reefs and their incredible inhabitants, it is easy to forget the world outside.
Our position in the remote northern Gaafu Alifu atoll means that our surrounding waters and house reefs are home to some of the richest marine life located above the equator. Here, the ocean is a natural playground for guests. We offer an array of exciting watersports and diving activities to explore during your stay.
To reach the world's unspoilt locations takes time but it is time repaid with every moment spent at Raffles Maldives Meradhoo. You will take an hour's domestic flight from the Maldivian capital Male' to Kaadedhdhoo. From there, our team whisk you away to Meradhoo island in our speedboat where your Butler awaits your arrival.
Raffles Maldives Meradhoo has been recognized as one of the best new hotels in the Indian Ocean by discerning travel connoisseurs and guests for its impeccable service and stunning beauty. The team works hard to ensure that guests are happy and treasure unforgettable memories.

Overwater Villa with Pool
Nature provides the backdrop for a stay in our Overwater Villa.

It is the perfect platform on which to appreciate the wonders of the natural world. Inside your villa, comfort is yours to curate. Open up the entire area to the soft breeze and sounds of the sea, or enclose the living areas for air-conditioned comfort.

Beach Residence with Pool
Two separate buildings, with private garden and pool in between, make the Beach Residence ideal for quality family time. Its different zones harmoniously connect to create an abundance of extraordinary room indoors and out. The master bedroom is perfection. From the kingsize four-poster bed to the vast bathroom suite incorporating a huge sunken bathtub, walk-in wardrobe, rain shower and opulent vanity unit. The second bedroom sits directly onto the beach. It is the place to feel the first of the sun's morning rays and see the first twinkle of starlight. Between the two buildings lie the landscaped outdoor pool and terrace with its own beachfront sala, and the poolside living and dining area with daybed, sofa set, dining table and casual seating. And, of course, the private stretch of pristine beach leading onto the ocean completes the scene in unmistakeable Maldivian style.

The Overwater Residences boast two separate bedrooms, a living room, gorgeous bathroom and a private pool over the shimmering turquoise lagoon. They are incredible homes of deep quality, cleverly designed to afford absolute privacy inside and huge relaxation space outside. While all the villas in our overwater village have astonishing views, the Overwater Residences sit at the very tip of the lagoon. The views from this position are so vast and uplifting that this is truly an unforgettable place to be. Perhaps the grandest of all is the view from the master bedroom. In this sumptuous space, with the high ceiling and enormous windows onto the surrounding ocean you are in nothing but pure, palatial elegance.

The villa comprises two separate bedrooms, a generous internal communal lounge, a grand bathroom, and a large pool and deck area. The west-facing view is far-reaching ? the horizon stretching out for miles. And looking down into the flourishing house reef, the view is also mesmerising. You will feel that you are cohabiting with the abundant marine life living just a few steps down from the pool deck. To be here as the amber sun dips below the line where sky meets sea is a truly magical experience. To be here for any time with the ones you love is life affirming.

Stretching comfortably over 1,700 square metres and accommodating up to 15 guests, the Royal Residence?s heart is the three consecutive reception rooms that border its 40-metre pool and look towards the property?s private beach. Whether savouring a fully catered barbecue, enjoying a boisterous pool party or simply admiring unimpeded views of another staggering sunset, everything the property offers can be enjoyed in absolute exclusivity. Raffles Maldives Meradhoo?s Marine Butlers can lead guided explorations of the resort?s two spectacular house reefs, while the Royal Residence Butler will be available at any time of day or night to facilitate private boat trips, hearty feet-in-the-sand meals under the shimmer of flickering tiki lights at barbecue restaurant The Firepit, or indulgent treatments at the resort?s overwater spa. Of course, with so much space entirely and solely at their disposal, guests might simply while away days without leaving the Royal Residence at all. Spa treatments can also be arranged on site; Raffles Maldives Meradhoo?s team of Children?s Butlers can be enlisted to entertain younger visitors; and a multitude of special events, from surprise birthday parties to decadent anniversary dinners, can be happily facilitated. Up to 24 guests can gather for a show-stopping meal to remember in the villa?s kitchen and dining room. Overlooking the lagoon and with its private bar stocked with rare spirits and the finest cigars, the expansive roof terrace works just as well as an intimate eyrie for evening sundowners as it does for morning yoga sessions sound-tracked by gently lapping waves.
