Shangri-La's Villingili Resort & Spa Seenu atoll
Our Opinion
Please note that due to the coronavirus pandemic Shangri-la Villinigili has ceased operations indefinitely
The first luxury resort in the Maldives located south of the equator with a plethora of great
facilities. A 3km long island of white sandy beaches and 17000 coconut trees, banyan trees and
natural dense vegetation.
The resort and Spa is a 70 minute domestic flight followed by a 7 minute boat trip from Malé
International Airport. Don’t be put off by the domestic flight as it is reliable and does not
succumb to the vagaries of the seaplane in terms of daytime departures and rough seas.
Whilst this hotel is incredibly private, with its wonderful self-contained villas with private pools,
due to its size the resort never feels busy unlike some islands. The size truly allows for
escapism, however at meal times you can socialise in the restaurants or bars if you choose to.
The resort consists of 132 spacious villas, each featuring a vast array of luxury furnishings and
modern amenities. All villas enjoy a good degree of privacy and are carefully placed around the
island and accessed by pathways.
There are a selection of restaurants and couple of bars that serve a variety of international fare.
