Kandima Maldives is a resort surrounded by lush tropical greenery, dazzling white beaches, and a turquoise lagoon. The island stretches for 3 kilometers, and shuttles are available for guests' convenience. The hotel opened in March 2017. It is much more than just "another vacation spot"; it offers a unique lifestyle and a completely different resort format, with a whole kaleidoscope of WOW factors: 264 stylish studios and villas, a wide range of water activities, a diving school, an art studio, culinary art lessons, themed restaurants and bars, diverse dining concepts, an amazing kids' club, unique wellness spa packages, and a rich program of daily activities for both adults and children. Kandima Maldives is equally suitable for guests of all ages and statuses: families, couples in love, groups of friends, corporate clients, solo travelers, and, of course, honeymooners.





The hotel is located on Kandima Island, Dhaalu Atoll, 175 km from Malé International Airport. The island's size is 3000m x 120m. Transfer options include a 45-minute seaplane ride (only during daylight hours) or a 25-minute domestic flight followed by a 15-minute speedboat ride.

The resort's pride is the second longest open 100-meter infinity pool in the Maldives. There is also a private lake where local turtles can often be spotted. The resort has a general practitioner and a modern medical center. For divers who experience decompression sickness, there is a hyperbaric chamber available for therapeutic recompression.
