Centara Grand Lagoon Maldives
$700-$1,200+ / nakti
Rezervējiet, ja You want a brand-new, ultra-modern luxury overwater villa experience that's just a quick 35-minute speedboat ride from the airport, with access to two islands' worth of dining.
Kāpēc cilvēki to mīl
- Brand new, sparkling clean facilities
- No seaplane required (35-40 min speedboat)
- Dine-around access to sister resort Centara Mirage Lagoon
Ātrs apskats: The proximity to Malé means you get a quick transfer, but you sacrifice the remote, deserted-island feel and powdery natural beaches.
Pārskatīts: @dfmarin: My stay at this overwater villa was pure magic. Sliding directly from my deck into the crystal-clear ocean was an absolute highlight, and the private pool was perfect for relaxing. Kayaking around the lagoon felt so peaceful. I can't wait to go back!

Reality check
The artificial nature of the island means the beach isn't the classic Maldivian ideal, and some overwater villas suffer from wave noise at night.
- You hate long seaplane transfers
- You want brand-new, modern amenities
- You enjoy having multiple dining options across two connected islands

BUJ un paslēptie paņēmieni
Viss, kas jums patiešām jāzina pirms grāmatošanas.
Do I need to take a seaplane to get there?
No, it's a 35-40 minute speedboat ride from Velana International Airport, which is great for late arrivals.
Is there a house reef for snorkeling?
Not directly off the beach since it's an artificial island. The in-house reef is about 1.27km away, requiring a boat trip.
Can I visit the resort next door?
Yes, it's connected to the family-friendly Centara Mirage Lagoon, and you can dine at their restaurants.
How much is the airport transfer?
The mandatory round-trip speedboat transfer is $350 per adult and $175 per child.
Is it an adults-only resort?
No, but it is the more premium, couples-focused property compared to its sister resort, though families are welcome.
Are the beaches natural?
No, the island is reclaimed/artificial, so the sand is imported and not as powdery as natural Maldivian islands.

Take advantage of the 24-hour in-villa dining if you arrive late, since the speedboat runs at night.
5 lietas, kas jāzina pirms doties
💡The island is reclaimed land, meaning the vegetation is still growing in and feels a bit bare.
💡You can see the skyline of Malé and industrial areas in the distance, breaking the 'deserted island' illusion.
💡The sand is imported and can feel a bit coarse compared to natural Maldivian beaches.
💡High tide (around 3-4 AM) can cause the water to violently hit the underside of some overwater pools.
💡You can get a private floating breakfast in your overwater villa pool.
