Nestled in the North Malé Atoll, just a short speedboat ride from Velana International Airport, Gili Lankanfushi invites you to disconnect from the ordinary and reconnect with nature, privacy, and purpose.

Our 45 overwater villas—including the iconic Private Reserve—float above crystal-clear lagoons, offering uninterrupted views and direct ocean access. Crafted from sustainable materials and designed with rustic elegance, each villa is a haven of tranquility, featuring open-air living spaces, rooftop decks, and personal butlers known as Mr./Ms. Friday.

Whether you're diving into vibrant coral gardens, indulging in organic cuisine from our island-grown produce, or surrendering to holistic treatments at the Meera Spa, every moment here is curated for deep connection and lasting memories.

Gili Lankanfushi is more than a destination—it’s a philosophy. A place where time slows, shoes disappear, and the soul finds its rhythm.
