Situated amid the serene, halcyon waters of the remote and unspoiled Noonu Atoll, the Sun Siyam Iru Fushi rests in perfect seclusion on its own lush 52-acre island. Having first opened in 2008 as a Hilton, it's now one of the few hotels in the Maldives that is actually Maldives-owned and run, giving it a wonderfully authentic ambience, and a truly laid-back natural appeal. It's also one of the few resorts in the Maldives that specifically cater for children and families, yet is so romantic and tranquil that couples and honeymooners can really feel they are on their own private island.
As Noonu Atoll is located in the far north of the Maldives, the resort is reached by a spectacular 45-minute seaplane flight, affording breathtaking aerial views of the Indian Ocean dotted with dreaming atolls and sparkling lagoons. You wait for the flight in the resort's own private lounge at Malé Airport, where you can enjoy cushioned day beds, refreshments and a free massage. On arrival at the island's scenic, meandering jetty you find the staff lined up in white uniforms for a ceremonious greeting, and check-in takes place on the beach, with a welcome cold drink.
There's no shortage of dining choice, with 11 restaurants offering an impressive array of menus, the main restaurant being al-fresco Iru, featuring live cooking stations and themed nights, including a weekly Maldivian Night. A favourite with many guests is Italian Trio, a stunning over-water venue on stilts over the ocean, while the beachfront Islander's Grill invites you to select your own live seafood from the surrounding waterways. The French outlet Flavours, also over water, offers a magical fusion of international specialities, and is also home to the stunning Wine Cellar, with hundreds of wines including rare vintages, where you can hand-pick a bottle to take back to your villa.
There are two pools, Fluid for families, and Reflections Pool along the beach for adults only, each having a lovely bar with food. The spa is the biggest in the Maldives, and features 20 beautiful treatment rooms, each named after a different flower. You have a wide choice of water activities and excursions, including the dhoni sunset cruise and the Lucky Dolphin Cruise, and a snorkelling safari where you could have the chance to swim with a sea turtle.
