Recently opened after a luxury refurbishment, the new-look Maafushivaru is an architectural gem with a small island charm.Just 350m in length, Maafushivaru is small and romantic, with two wide beaches and a glorious lagoon. Theres a house reef for snorkelling and if you board one of the dive centres boat trips theres a great chance of spotting turtles, manta rays and whale sharks nearby. An infinity pool is perfectly placed on the beachfront, next to the bar with comfy chic sofas for lounging. Maafushivarus secret delight is the beautiful neighbouring sister island, Lonubo (currently closed due to COVID-19 restrictions).
