The Residence Maldives at Dhigurah, Dhigurah, Maldives

A quintessential island destination, the Maldives is the very image of tropical bliss. The backdrop to your getaway is Dhigurah Island, tucked-away in the far-flung Gaafu Alifu Atoll. With a comprehensive line-up of optional activities to enjoy, you’ll never be short on ways to discover the island’s beauty.

Join optional guided snorkelling tours of the resort's house reef to discover colourful marine life, harvest your own vegetables from the Earth Basket, take an island garden stroll or indulge in an afternoon picnic on the hotel's private 'Castaway Island'. Alternatively, cross the bridge to the Dhigurah’s sister resort on neighbouring Falhumaafushi island and lounge by the beach before watching the sun melt into the horizon.

It's a dream destination for diving, being located on the largest and deepest atoll in the world, surrounded by a pristine underwater reef where vibrant corals are home to a wide variety of undersea creatures, like sponges, sea fans, trigger fish, parrot fish, turtles, rays and sharks. Take a lesson or an exploratory dive with the resort's own PADI 5* Dive Centre, which caters to everyone from beginner divers to experienced and certified divers.

Some activities may incur additional fees.
