Sun Siyam Iru Fushi , Noonu Atoll

The beautiful Sun Siyam Iru Fushi is a paradisiacal Maldivian resort on an unspoilt island that offers tranquillity, natural beauty and top-class facilities to provide a fantastic hotel experience.

Arriving by seaplane, the resort is about 45 minutes from the capital Male. The waters surrounding the small island are a dazzling azure, and the beaches are kept impeccably clean with soft, white sand. The inner island is blanketed with palm trees and lush green jungle, with a few traditional villages dotted around.

Each villa is well decorated with lots of light and modern, comfy furniture. Modern amenities are as standard, including TVs and iPod docks.  Beds are large and comfy with crisp white sheets, and even the entry-level rooms are located right on the beach, so whichever room you choose you are guaranteed to be close to the beautiful warm ocean. The water villas are spectacular and come highly recommended by us with their uninterrupted ocean views, deck Jacuzzis and open-air overwater showers.

The resort has excellent facilities and a good range of activities, including first-class snorkelling and diving with professional instructors, canoeing, boat trips, fishing, a large spa and a kids club, making it a great choice for families. The resort is large but the friendly and attentive staff are always on hand to give you a buggy ride to one of the many restaurant options, serving fresh fish and high-quality, international cuisine.              

The Sun Siyam Iru Fushi is an excellent all-round choice for the Maldives. The welcome is incredibly warm and is one of the stand-out selling points of this superb resort.
