About the hotel

Leaving your worries at home isn’t just a saying – it’s the way you travel with Australia’s only travel to the Maldives aboard an exclusive Luxury Escapes private charter flight. Skip the long layovers and land ready for paradise, with The Standard as your ultimate destination. From all-inclusive dining and sunset cruises to island adventures and five-star facilities, paradise is yours to claim.

Known for scene-setting stays in New York, Miami and London, The Standard brings its signature playful edge to island life, swapping city skylines for endless blue horizons. Experience the brand’s take on paradise, where every villa comes with its own private plunge pool and playful design details bring disco-ball sparkle to the tropics. Of course, the quintessential Maldives touches are there too: a scenic seaplane ride takes you to private pool villas set by the sand or over the lagoon.

Wander from the beach into crystal-clear shallows or step straight from your overwater terrace into a living lagoon, where tropical fish, coral gardens and seasonal manta ray encounters bring the house reef to life. Between snorkels, slow things down at The Standard Spa with indulgent treatments, a hammam and scheduled yoga sessions.

Six dining venues ensure there’s always something worth coming ashore for, from Guduguda’s Maldivian plates and Kula’s live cooking stations to oceanfront Mediterranean flavours at Onda. At BBQ Shak, fresh seafood is grilled over coconut-shell charcoal while Todis Bar keeps cocktails flowing and Joos Cafe handles the poolside pick-me-ups. This is island living as you’ve never seen it before.

Highlights

Your Air Travel – Take Australia’s only direct flight to the Maldives

Spend less time travelling and more time in paradise aboard our Luxury Escapes private charter flight, flying you directly to Malé in under 12 hours. Australia’s only direct flight to the Maldives means no international stopovers and no waiting in airports – just more time to maximise your holiday. Switch into holiday mode as we take care of everything aboard an Airbus A330-200 plane, reserved exclusively for Luxury Escapes guests.

The Resort – A playful Raa Atoll escape with serious island style

Don’t be fooled by the name: there’s nothing standard about this resort. From the moment you step off the seaplane at The Standard, Maldives, you’ll know you’ve arrived somewhere special. The Standard Hotels brand is globally renowned for redefining boutique hospitality with iconic properties in the hottest destinations, including New York City, Miami and London. Discover The Standard’s take on island luxury at its incredible Maldives resort.

Here, every private pool villa opens directly onto the beach, lagoon or ocean, so days drift between protected house reef snorkelling, poolside downtime and playful resort activities. The Standard’s ‘Happenings’ program is a fun way to get to know your fellow guests, with a rotating schedule of mixology classes, pool parties, live music and movies under the stars.

Between events, unwind by the adults-only pool with a swim-up wellness bar serving herbal cocktails, challenge friends on the tennis court, hit the gym, make a splash in the main pool or explore the island by complimentary resort bike. Need to take a breath? The Standard Spa has you covered with everything from an aroma steam room to DIY mud experiences, holistic treatments and yoga classes.

Your Handpicked Inclusions – Seaplane transfers, all-inclusive dining, sunset cruising and more

Arrive in classic Maldives style with return seaplane transfers between Malé and The Standard, Maldives included, carrying you across the atolls before your island stay begins. Early check-in and late checkout are also included, subject to availability, giving you more time to settle into resort life.

Your days are deliciously covered, with daily breakfast, lunch and dinner included at select venues:

  • Kula (breakfast, lunch and dinner): Start each morning with a bountiful buffet breakfast at Kula, then return for lunch or nightly dinner at the resort’s breezy, bright all-day dining restaurant, with free-flow coffee, tea, juice and soft drinks served daily.

Enjoy more venues with the Premium All-Inclusive upgrade (select packages only):

  • Joos Café (lunch and dinner): Keep things relaxed at Joos Café, a laidback island spot for coffee, smoothies and healthy eats between swims.
  • Todis (lunch): Settle in for a relaxed lunch of fresh oysters, fried chicken sandwiches and burgers at Todis, nestled in the shade just off the sparkling pool deck.
  • BBQ Shak (dinner): Swing by BBQ Shak for a casual beach dinner of fresh seafood and meats grilled over coconut-shell charcoal, letting your feet sink into powder-soft sand as you dine.
  • Guduguda (dinner): Overlook the blue horizon while enjoying traditional Maldivian food at Guduguda, showcasing the region’s locally caught seafood.
  • Onda (dinner): Onda is a Mediterranean restaurant and bar serving fresh coastal dishes and crafted cocktails in a relaxed setting, especially suited to catching a jaw-dropping sunset.

Add a little ocean magic with one sunset cruise per package: a boat ride you’ll never forget as the sun drops over the Indian Ocean. Families are well looked after too, with up to two children aged 12 and under staying and eating free when dining with an adult and sleeping on an extra bed.

Premium All-Inclusive Upgrade: For a little extra indulgence (because why wouldn’t you in the Maldives?), the Premium All-Inclusive upgrade brings unlimited free-flow cocktails, spirits, champagne, more than 50 premium wines and more. You’ll also unlock lunches and dinners at select venues, plus a complimentary in-villa minibar stocked with premium wine, spirits of your choice, beers and soft drinks, replenished daily, and a welcome bottle of sparkling wine. To round it all out, you’ll receive one guided house reef snorkel per package and one 30-minute massage per adult at The Standard Spa.
