Located amid lush native vegetation on Kooddoo Island – part of the Gaafu Alifu Atoll in the southern Maldives – Mercure Maldives Kooddoo Resort is accessible via a 55-minute direct domestic flight from the capital, Malé.

The Resort — An all-inclusive, adults-only oasis
Set on the idyllic island of Kooddoo, this is Mercure — but not as you know it.
At Mercure Maldives Kooddoo Resort, you can expect a visual feast of all-inclusive dining, with some of the most spectacular reefs in the world hidden beneath the turquoise waters. This oasis is the first property in the Maldives launched by the world-renowned Accor brand, meaning you can expect the quintessential service and luxury afforded by the Accor name. Dubbed ‘The World’s Best Mercure’, the resort brings wonder and delight to honeymooners and dreamers alike.
Tantalise the tastebuds with dining across two indulgent venues, pamper yourself at the Suvadiva Spa and make the tough decision between the resort’s infinity pool or the sparkling Indian Ocean. Balance relaxation on the pristine beachfront with unforgettable snorkelling through shallow reef walls, discovering breathtaking marine life, from eagle rays to reef sharks and sea turtles. Feeling adventurous? The resort can help you organise activities such as boat trips to nearby islands (additional charges apply).
Your Handpicked Inclusions – All-inclusive dining, unlimited free-flow drinks, roundtrip domestic flight transfers and more
Getting to paradise is easy — your package includes roundtrip domestic flights between Malé and Kooddoo, with a short, scenic flight taking you over picturesque islands and the azure lagoon to the privacy of the resort. Relax the moment you touch down in paradise at the Moonimaa Lounge in Malé Airport (MLE), where you can wait for your connecting flight in comfort.
