Soneva Fushi
Soneva Fushi reads as the Maldives’ original barefoot-luxury argument: a large Baa Atoll island where jungle, beach villas, overwater reserves and serious sustainability infrastructure sit inside one resort ecosystem. Its credibility is unusually well signposted, with World’s 50 Best Hotels rankings in 2023, 2024 and 2025, La Liste Top Hotels 2026 at 98 points, and Star Wine List recognition in 2026.
