In a world where privacy and personalization redefine luxury, InterContinental Maldives Maamunagau Resort sets a new standard. The resort sits tucked away in the remote Raa Atoll, at the edge of a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, and now invites guests to book the entire island for themselves. Be it a dream honeymoon, an intimate celebration, a family reunion, or a gathering of friends, this private island escape delivers complete freedom, unmatched comfort, and unforgettable experiences in one of the planet’s most extraordinary locations.
This opportunity goes beyond a typical island stay. Guests who choose the exclusive island buyout can take full control of their time at InterContinental Maldives. From customized activities to tailored dining and curated wellness experiences, every moment centers around their preferences.
The resort lies within a protected manta ray sanctuary in the Raa Atoll and provides access to one of the Maldives’ richest marine ecosystems. Guests encounter vibrant coral reefs, blacktip reef sharks, sea turtles, and from December to April, graceful manta rays during their seasonal migration. The resort’s resident Manta Trust marine biologists guide snorkeling and diving excursions, offering personalized, up-close interactions with these ocean giants in their natural environment.
The InterContinental team ensures a seamless experience from the moment guests land in Malé. A dedicated airport representative greets arrivals and escorts them to the resort’s private seaplane lounge for a scenic journey to the island. For large groups, personalized concierge services manage luggage, check-ins, and welcome experiences.
Villas Designed for Every Style of Traveler
The resort features 81 villas and residences across beach, lagoon, and overwater settings. Each space blends natural beauty with modern luxury and reflects a design that respects the surrounding environment. The options suit both couples and large groups, with everything from romantic beachfront villas to expansive multi-bedroom residences.
Each accommodation features indoor and outdoor living spaces, private pools, a dedicated butler, luxury BYREDO bath products, and a pillow menu for personalized comfort. Regardless of your plans—watching the sunset over the ocean or waking up with your feet in the sand—the setting always impresses.
