Avani+ Fares Maldives Resort
Situated along the western edge of the Baa Atoll, on a beautiful UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, the secluded paradise of Avani+ Fares Maldives Resort is only accessible by speedboat. Explore incredibly clear waters and coral reefs – maybe even spot a dolphin while paddling around in the resort’s lagoon, or travel to Hanifaru Bay to snorkel with manta rays. Your return transfers include an approximate 30-minute domestic flight from Velana International Airport (MLE) and a further 30-minute speedboat transfer to the resort. See Fine Print for details.

The Resort – Brand-new Maldives haven
Fare means ‘the land on the reef’ in the local language and Avani+ Fares Maldives Resort boasts one of the most breathtaking lagoons in the region. The heart-shaped Baa Atoll, made up of 61 islands and 105 reefs, swells with biodiversity. Take off on diving expeditions to the resort’s 14 nearby sites and spot hawksbill turtles, schools of marine life and even dolphins.
Back on land, gourmet dining reaches unparalleled standards. Days could start with a cold-pressed juice or kombucha, complemented by a flaky pastry. Evenings might be spent watching a movie under the stars at The Skipjack Bar, all while snacking on wood-fired pizzas, and kids can feel like VIPs at Petit Bistro, learning recipes in special cooking classes.
Avani+ Fares Maldives Resort invites guests to take advantage of every facility. Challenge your travel companion to a game of tennis, lounge poolside while admiring views of the Indian Ocean and celebrate some much needed ‘me time’ at the signature wellness sanctuary.
