Gili Lankanfushi

Experience ultimate privacy at Gili Lankanfushi, Maldives with 45 exquisite over-water villas, including standalone Crusoe Residences and magnificent The Private Reserve accessible only by boat. Each villa is designed with the utmost attention to detail, sustainably built to be environmentally friendly, and features a private water garden, sun-deck as well as a separate shower linked to the spacious bathroom by a semi-open-air walkway. 

​

Gili Lankanfushi’s rustic chic aesthetic belies the supremely luxurious accommodation offering. All 45 villas are located overwater and offer direct access to the lucent turquoise waters surrounding the island resort. The design emphasises the connection between the land and sea, with glass floor panels offering a glimpse of the corals blooming below, whilst daybeds on the private roof terraces can be made up with luxurious linens for an atmospheric night spent sleeping beneath the stars. Locally-sourced fabrics add flashes of bright turquoise and burnt terracotta to the calming and rustic wood surroundings of the bedrooms and living areas, whilst the bathrooms boast hammered copper sinks and bathtubs with panoramic lagoon views. All six types of villas and residences come with a dedicated Mr/s Friday butler service, catering for guests’ every wish.
