Imagine hiding away on a tiny coral island resort in a sparkling lagoon in the middle of the Indian Ocean. Then imagine a retreat even more exclusive: your own 5-room sanctuary reached only by boat at this member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World. You have just envisioned the Private Reserve at Gili Lankanfushi Maldives in the Maldives. Designed in harmony with the natural surroundings, this stunning hideaway boasts two master suites, a natural coral pool and a private spa pavilion. From personal butlers to a customized wine cellar, no indulgence has been overlooked.

Fabulous time at Gili. The service was beyond amazing. Naff our Ms Friday was just the best ever : Courteous, super helpful, friendly & so much fun. Everyone at the resort was so very nice. Food was great. Villas stunning. Snorkelling extremely good. Lots to see under water. Ailam, Monica , Riyaz & Lolz and soo many others made this 60th birthday trip of my sister & me sooo memorable. We felt soo relaxed and at home. The atmosphere at the resort is so warm and cosy. I will for sure come back to Gili very soon. Such a peaceful beautiful place.

In the Maldives, we have experienced many island hotels. However, our last trip to Gili gifted us an unforgettable vacation. We relaxed and had fun. The service was magnificent. Tesla (Taslim)'s attention and smile, along with Chef Hari's exquisite flavors from world cuisine, made us feel as if we had dined in the most famous restaurants. As Took and April gave us wonderful massages at the spa, we felt like we were disconnected from the world while watching the corals and colorful fish through the glass floor. The villas were so beautifully designed that we felt intertwined with the ocean and its life, as well as the magnificent sky and stars above. We wonder if sharing this dreamlike paradise is a good thing. We hope it remains this special and beautiful forever. Rodrigo (the general manager), please make everyone working here very happy so that they don't leave, ensuring that this magic doesn't fade!

Our stay at Gili Lankanfushi was absolutely unforgettable. We loved every moment and every experience—truly perfection from start to finish. The staff went above and beyond in every interaction, always warm, attentive, and genuinely committed to making our stay special. The level of service is exceptional and unlike anything we have experienced before. The food was another highlight. Every meal was delicious, beautifully prepared, and thoughtfully presented. Whether at breakfast, dinner, or during special experiences, the culinary quality was consistently outstanding. From the stunning villa, the serene atmosphere, and the impeccable service to the unique experiences offered throughout the stay, Gili Lankanfushi exceeded all our expectations. We can’t wait to return.

Amazing and Wonderful experience, they take care of every single details, the entire service received is absolutely fantastic. All the staff every single and each of them are amazing and made the whole experience feel so special. Most of the amenities are made in the island which is great, they also have their organic garden that you get most of the vegetables fresh. It's definitely an experience so worth to try.

Everything was great, especially how private everything is in the ressort. Pure relaxation :) The barefoot culture also was a special experience.
