If you’re looking to visit, here’s what makes the property even more special.
A private haven

Its privately situated 100 contemporary circular villas. They are scattered above the water and up and down a stretch of beach. Each is polished, pared back and pulse-slowing, with glass doors that open onto half-moon decks, teardrop-shaped plunge pools and the high-definition blue of the ocean. By blurring the line between indoors and out, each villa offers water views, an infinity pool, a sundeck.
A wellness getaway
A ring-shaped sanctuary nestled over the turquoise lagoon, The Ritz-Carlton Spa at The Ritz-Carlton Maldives, Fari Islands, offers nine spa treatment rooms, including a spa suite with its relaxation lounge, a salon, and a boutique. Cardinal directions of each treatment room exude powerful energy complemented with healing massages.

Additionally, those looking to boost their physical strength can book a Killer Abs class or engage in the thrilling atmosphere of a group Aerial Hoop Class.
A serene theme

A calming circular theme runs throughout the resort, which is based on Kerry Hill’s modern design, the late Australian architect who planned the property. His idea was that circles represent infinite perfection as well as the circular motion of the wind and sea.
A Culinary Delight

The Ritz Carlton Maldives also offers seven restaurants and bars scattered over the specialized Culinary Island, Grand Sunset Beach, and Fari Marina Village, providing personalized dining for every palate. Guests will be awakened by the scent of freshly made espresso, taking them on a short detour to Italy at La Locanda, where Italian meals and cultures unravel.

Perfect for family quality time, the Beach Shack offers a laid-back, playful ambiance that embraces the Mediterranean.
