Anantara Dhigu Maldives Resort is a 5-star resort on a medium-sized island in South Malé Atoll, around 30 minutes from Velana International Airport by speedboat. Open since 2006, it shares a lagoon with its sister resorts Veli and Naladhu, so guests can explore extra restaurants and facilities by boat. The lagoon is calm and shallow, with a good house reef, and the resort is well known for families, couples and surfers who come for the breaks nearby.
There are 110 villas and suites. Beachfront Villas (about 125 m²) and Beachfront Pool Villas (about 150 m²) sit along the sand, while Over Water Suites and Deluxe Over Water Pool Suites (around 119–129 m²) stand above the lagoon; the Sunset Over Water Pool Villa adds west-facing views. Families can choose the Two Bedroom Family Beach Pool Villa (about 237 m²) or the larger Two Bedroom Anantara Beach Pool Villa (about 321 m², sleeping six). Villas have deep soaking tubs, rain showers and private patios.
Four restaurants include Fushi Café, alongside beach and pool bars and a lounge, plus 24-hour in-villa dining. Meal plans are bed & breakfast, half board or full board, and guests can also book dining across the neighbouring Anantara islands.
Anantara Spa offers massages, body treatments and facials, with a sauna, fitness centre and outdoor pool. The resort has a kids' club, water sports, diving and snorkelling, and surfing on South Malé's reef breaks.
Anantara Dhigu Maldives Resort is reached from Velana International Airport (MLE) in Malé, the main international gateway to the Maldives. The speedboat transfer takes about 30 minutes, and speedboats can usually run after dark too, which helps with late arrivals. Check-in is from 14:00 and check-out is at 12:00. We arrange the transfer with the resort and include it in your quote.
Anantara Dhigu suits families who want two-bedroom pool villas and a kids' club, couples who like a quick speedboat transfer, and surfers. Ask Maldives Agents to combine it with Veli or Naladhu for a two-resort stay.
