Hvorfor folk elsker det
- The only resort in the Maldives with a permanent skydiving dropzone
- Premium All-Inclusive plan ('Exclusively Yours') actually covers premium alcohol and a la carte dining
- Direct domestic flight access means no seaplane curfew—you can arrive/depart at night
Hurtig oversikt: It’s a fun, social playground with its own airport, so expect DJs and planes rather than total silence and pristine house reefs.
Gjennomgått av @_adiivaa: I loved that we could fly straight to the island's private airport—no seaplane stress! Spending afternoons on the overwater net watching the fish below was my absolute favorite way to unwind. It’s the perfect mix of luxury and family fun.

Reality check
The 'Sunset Sky Suites' are upstairs units in 4-plex blocks, meaning you have a balcony, not direct sand access like the Beach Suites below.
- You get bored easily and want activities like skydiving, foam parties, and social events
- You hate the stress of seaplane weight limits and daylight-only transfers
- You prioritize food and drink quality over having a private plunge pool

FAQ & Skjulte tips
Alt du faktisk vil vite før du bestiller.
Is the domestic flight included?
Often yes—many packages (especially for 5+ nights) include free roundtrip domestic transfers. Check your specific booking terms.
Can I arrive at night?
Yes! Because it uses a domestic airport with a runway, flights can land after dark, unlike seaplanes which stop at 4pm.
Is the alcohol actually premium?
Surprisingly, yes. The 'Exclusively Yours' plan includes branded spirits and a good wine list, not just cheap house pours.
Are there mosquitoes?
Yes, it's a lush tropical island. The resort fogs regularly and provides repellent, but bites can happen.
Is it adults-only?
No, it is family-friendly with a 'Coconut Kids Club', but the vibe skews social/adult in the evenings.
How is the snorkeling?
Mediocre. The house reef has fish and sharks but the coral is mostly dead/bleached. You need a boat excursion for the 'National Geographic' views.
Innsidetips
- ✨
The 'Ifuru Eats' buggy delivers late-night snacks to your villa door—use the 'magic button' on your phone.
- ✨
Look for the 'Secret Spots' marked on the island map for private sunset viewing away from the main bar.
- ✨
If you book a 'Sky Suite', request an end unit for slightly more privacy on the balcony.
5 ting du bør vite før du drar
💡The 'Sunset' orientation is real—literally every single guest room faces the sunset side; the sunrise side is service/airport.
💡The 'Barbie House' is a real thing—a pink building serving ice cream near the pool.
💡You can watch skydivers landing on the beach from the main pool area—it's free entertainment.
💡The 'Sky Suites' (upstairs) can feel less 'Maldivian' because you are disconnected from the sand.
💡The runway is right there—aviation geeks will love it, silence seekers might find it distracting.
