W Maldives is on Fesdu Island in North Ari Atoll, 25 minutes from Velana by seaplane. The price on this page covers the island part of the holiday in full: your villa, the shared return seaplane, your meal plan and every Maldivian tax, green tax included.
The choice that matters most here is the meal plan. Half board and full board include no drinks at all, not even bottled water. The island has six places to eat and drink, from KITCHEN, the all-day restaurant, to FISH over the lagoon and SIP, the overwater bar.
What you pay
Pick your dates, a villa and a meal plan and the price is the whole stay: two people in a one-bedroom villa or four in a two-bedroom, with a seaplane seat for each of them. Three and four nights are priced on this page.
The entry point is three nights on half board in the Superior Overwater One-bedroom Villa. The green season is priced lower again.
On honeymoon, book four nights. The resort's honeymoon and anniversary benefits need four nights in a row, and at three you get none of them. The fourth night in that same villa adds about a quarter to the three-night price.
For four people, take the two-bedroom villa. Four nights in the Supreme Overwater Two-bedroom Villa come to appreciably less than two Superior Overwater villas, and two adults with two children fit the same price.
All inclusive rarely pays here. It adds drinks from 11:00 to 23:00 from a set menu, and the step over full board is steep. Unless you drink steadily through the day, half or full board and paying for what you order usually comes out lower.
What's included, and what isn't
In the price: your villa, breakfast and dinner on half board, all three meals on full board, meals and drinks from 11:00 to 23:00 on all inclusive, the shared return seaplane with the lounge before your flight, and every Maldivian tax including green tax.
Not in the price: your international flights, travel insurance, any drink on half or full board, FISH, destination dining and the themed evenings on every plan, any seaplane fuel surcharge, the spa and excursions, Indian TCS, and anything not named above.
Who this isn't for
Three adults in a one-bedroom villa. These prices are for two, and a third person needs the resort's approval and their own seaplane seat. Ask us before you plan on it.
Anyone landing at Velana after 15:00. Seaplanes fly in daylight only, so a late arrival means a night in Malé first and a paid night on the island lost.
Honeymooners on three nights, for the reason above, and anyone hoping to add another offer on top. These prices combine only with the honeymoon and anniversary benefits.
Before you book
Christmas and New Year are not priced on this page. We can still book them.
Five nights or more, and a split between a beach and an overwater villa, are not priced on this page. We can book both. On a split stay the resort can change the second villa, so talk to us before you plan around it.
Honeymooners need the marriage certificate at the resort seven days before arrival. Infants under two stay and fly free. New bookings only, up to five villas.
Send us your dates and who is travelling, and we will price the meal plans side by side for the villa you like. Message our Maldives specialists on WhatsApp or send us an enquiry. We reply within 24 hours.
