What Our Guests Say

Rated Travellers' Choice on TripAdvisor

Secluded yet family friendly resort

The trip was excellent. Our villa host, Zaeen, was very kind and helpful, he would go out of his way to help us. With him, the trip elevated to a whole different level. Mode, our main snorkelling guide, helped us a lot while on land and in the sea. We really enjoyed the house reef, the wild life there was amazing and diverse. Such as: turtles, rays, sharks, and a lot of coral. We would definitely go back!

Always the best time at Como Maalifushi

We always have the best time at Como Maalifushi - we've been coming here with our 6 year old every summer since she was 2. Naail took such good care of us and a special thank you also to Ibu Rini as well as Diah and Sheryl from the kids club.

COMO Maalifushi

Regular price₹ 440,600
/
Double occupancy, breakfast and one three-course meal daily, return shared seaplane transfers, service charge, taxes and green tax included · valid until 19 Dec 2026

COMO Maalifushi is the only resort in Thaa Atoll, well south of the airport, and the quietest island COMO runs. Three nights for two in a Beach Suite with Private Pool is ₹440,600, all in from Malé.

Inside that number: breakfast plus a three-course lunch or dinner, the return shared seaplane, a 60-minute COMO Shambhala massage, a 30-minute photo shoot and every tax. Stays run to 19 December 2026.

What this actually costs

Pick your villa and your length above and the price is the total for two adults for the whole stay. International flights are not included.

  • The four categories converge in the later window. From October only ₹51,000 separates the entry Beach Suite from the top Water Villa on three nights, against ₹66,300 in the green season. If the water villa is what you want, October to December is when it is cheapest to move up.
  • The extra-night rate is where the value sits. A fourth night on the Beach Suite costs about ₹62,000, comfortably under the per-night average of the three-night package. Four, five and six nights all price off that same rate.
  • Full board is USD 360 per stay for two on three nights, about ₹37,000, and it does not move with the season. Simply COMO, the all-inclusive, is USD 2,094 in the green season and USD 2,550 from October. On a long stay with a drinking couple it earns its price; on three quiet nights it will not.

This rate is combinable with COMO’s honeymoon and anniversary amenities. Tell us you are celebrating when you book and we attach both, not one or the other.

Who this isn’t for

Anyone landing at Malé in the evening. The seaplane is 60 minutes and flies in daylight only, and there is no late boat alternative this far south. Land after about 15:00 and you overnight in the city before you reach the island. Book a morning flight from India and you keep the night you paid for.

Anyone who wants plenty to do off-resort, too. Maalifushi is the only resort in its atoll, so there is no neighbouring island to hop to and no local island a short boat ride away. The quiet is the product. And if you want it quiet in the water, avoid roughly March to October, when the surf brings a different crowd.

Before you book

  • Occupancy is four people, using one extra bed and one day bed. An infant under two is complimentary, with no seaplane charge and no green tax. A child of 2 to 11.99 sharing with parents takes the same meal plan. Extra-child supplements exclude the massage.
  • Cancellation. Full payment must reach the resort at least 14 days before arrival. Cancelling between 14 and 8 days costs 50%, within 7 days 100%. Late arrivals, no-shows and early departures are charged in full, without exception.
  • COMO Shambhala is included: sauna, steam room, plunge pool, gym, a padel court and daily group fitness, yoga and meditation. The 60-minute massage in the package is a proper treatment, not a taster.

Tell us your dates and your villa and we will come back with a transfer-inclusive costing, an honest view on whether the all-inclusive earns its place for you, and confirmation of this rate with the resort before you commit. Message our Maldives specialists on WhatsApp or send us an enquiry. We reply within 24 hours.

Getting there

Route Seaplane
Journey 60 min, airport to island
Last arrival that works 15:00

Land at Velana after 15:00 and the last transfer of the day will have gone, which means a night in Malé before you reach the island.

Shared seaplane, daylight only. Land at Velana in the evening and you spend a night in Malé first, so send us your flights and we will check the connection before you book.
