Maldives, the ultimate tropical island getaway
Soneva Fushi is located on Kunfunadhoo Island in the Baa Atoll area in the Maldives. The Republic of Maldives in the Indian Ocean, home to some of the world’s finest white sand beaches and exceptional marine life, has to date never allowed ownership of private real estate to foreigners. Soneva Fushi by Six Senses will be among the very first to offer this privilege.
The island is 1,400 metres long and 400 metres wide. It is one of the largest islands that has been allocated for tourism in the Maldives. Apart from the crystal clear waters, white beaches and a tropical climate, the island’s unusually lush vegetation offers a unique natural experience.
The island can be reached by a scenic 30-minute seaplane flight from Male International Airport.
