Centara Grand Lagoon Maldives
$700-$1,200+ / đêm
Đặt phòng nếu 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.
Tại Sao Mọi Người Yêu Thích Nó
- Brand new, sparkling clean facilities
- No seaplane required (35-40 min speedboat)
- Dine-around access to sister resort Centara Mirage Lagoon
Tóm tắt nhanh: The proximity to Malé means you get a quick transfer, but you sacrifice the remote, deserted-island feel and powdery natural beaches.
Được đánh giá bởi @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!

FAQ & Những mẹo ẩn
Mọi thứ bạn thực sự muốn biết trước khi đặt phòng.
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.

💡High tide (around 3-4 AM) can cause the water to violently hit the underside of some overwater pools.
