Part of the Constance group, all-inclusive Moofushi tempts travellers with laidback, barefoot relaxation. Tempting gourmet cuisine, overwater spa treatments and unpretentious service combine to make this one of the Maldives’ most inviting hideaways. Set on its own island, its villas nestle on the white sands or on stilts above the dreamy Indian Ocean. Traditional in style with thatch palm ceilings, wooden terraces and stunning pearl accents, each beautifully reflects the natural beach setting. The resort even sets its own time zone to ensure the sun sets at the most perfect time.

Even by Maldivian standards, the South Ari Atoll is considered a prime spot for diving and snorkelling. Within a mere 30 minutes of Constance Moofushi are dozens of notable dive sites, while the resort itself is fringed by exceptionally vibrant reefs, neatly situated on the migration route of manta rays. When not swimming with blacktip reef sharks and hawksbill sea turtles, you can windsurf, canoe and enjoy complimentary dhoni boat trips.
