Concept

The idea of drifting aimlessly across the wide-open ocean is encompassed within this totally unique concept of “Dhilafushi” the Floating Hotel. The name “dhila” is derived from the cuttle fish, which gives its buoyancy in the water. Dhilafushi are the last remaining of the cuttlefish which is often washed onto beaches or seen floating on the ocean.

The Dhilafushi Floating Hotel has 5 separate levels, each with its own distinctive identity and function. The hotel enables you to experience the clear blue seas of the Maldives, more fully, by encompassing the ambience of yachting with the functions of a fully operated hotel.
