House reef
Our rating
3/5
Fine
A young resort, and the reef is a patch by the water villas rather than something you can circle. Guests snorkelling straight off the villa ladders report parrotfish, clownfish and the occasional octopus or dolphin, and it is pleasant, but several say plainly that anything more serious means taking a boat out. The current under the villas runs strong and the water is deep there. The sand is coarser than the Maldives postcard and floating debris has been reported. Beach villas front sand rather than coral. Treat this as a lagoon island with an excursion programme.

About the resort
Centara Grand Lagoon Maldives is the quieter half of a two-island resort in North Malé Atoll, about 40 minutes from Velana airport by speedboat. The boat runs at any hour, so a late landing still reaches the island the same night.
Every villa has a private pool or a jacuzzi, and the dining is a dine-around across five restaurants and bars. It is connected to Centara Mirage Lagoon, the family island next door, so you get the calm on this side with a water park and kids' club close by.
What you pay
Every price on this page is for two adults sharing, three nights, with the return speedboat, green tax and every Maldivian tax included.
Pick bed and breakfast, full board plus or all inclusive above. On three nights or more the resort lifts you one plan: book half board plus and you eat on full board plus, book full board plus and you get all inclusive. That upgrade is already in the plan names and prices you see.
The two-bedroom villas are priced for two adults too. Tell us if four are travelling and we will price the stay for all of you.
What's included, and what isn't
In the price: the villa, the meal plan you pick, the return shared speedboat from Velana, green tax, all Maldivian taxes, snorkel gear for the stay, non-motorised water sports and a spa credit of US$60 per adult. On three nights or more you also get one shared fishing trip, and pool villas get one floating breakfast.
Not in the price: meals at Centara Mirage Lagoon, which need the resort's upgraded plan, excursions, spa treatments beyond the credit, your international flights, travel insurance, Indian TCS, and anything not named above.
Who this isn't for
Serious snorkellers should look elsewhere. The house reef is a patch by the water villas rather than a reef you can swim around, the current under the villas runs strong, and anything better means a boat trip. Families with young children will find more to do on the Mirage island itself, and anyone after a remote, empty horizon will notice how close Malé is.
Before you book
Three nights is the shortest stay we can sell. Check-in is from 15:00 and check-out is by 12:00. Up to two children under twelve stay and eat free in their parents' villa.
The Christmas and New Year fortnight is not priced on this page, because it carries compulsory gala dinners; ask us and we will quote it in full. Not every date is priced here. Pick your dates above and anything unpriced comes through to us with the dates already filled in.

Frequently asked questions
How do I get to Centara Grand Lagoon Maldives?
By the resort's own speedboat from Velana International Airport. The crossing takes about 40 minutes and runs at any hour, so a late landing still reaches the island the same night. The return boat is inside every price on this page.
What is the meal plan upgrade at Centara Grand Lagoon?
On three nights or more the resort lifts you one plan for free. Book half board plus and you eat on full board plus; book full board plus and you get all inclusive. The plans and prices on this page already show the plan you actually get.
Can we eat at Centara Mirage Lagoon next door?
Yes, on the resort's upgraded plan, which opens the Thai, Italian and buffet restaurants on the Mirage side as well. It is charged per person per night on top of the prices here. Ask us and we will add it to your quote.
Is Centara Grand Lagoon good for snorkelling?
Only lightly. The reef is a patch by the water villas rather than one you can swim around, and the current under the villas runs strong. Parrotfish and clownfish are easy to see; for rays, turtles and sharks, book a boat trip.
Is Centara Grand Lagoon good for families?
For families with older children, yes. Up to two children under twelve stay and eat free, and the two-bedroom villas take up to five adults. Families with young children usually prefer Centara Mirage Lagoon next door, with its water park and kids' club.
Which villa should we choose at Centara Grand Lagoon?
The One-Bedroom Overwater Pool Villa. It is a modest step up from the villa with a jacuzzi and gives you your own pool over the lagoon. Choose a beach pool villa if you want sand under your feet instead.
