Thai hospitality brand Dusit Hotels and Resorts has signed an agreement to manage dusitD2 Feydhoo Maldives – a 125-key lifestyle resort on a private island near the main island of Malé.

Currently under construction and slated to open in the fourth quarter of 2024, the new resort will operate under Dusit’s mid-range upscale dusitD2 brand and will be the group’s first ‘all-inclusive’ property.

In addition to overwater villas and family suites ranging from 77-319sqm, the lifestyle-driven resort will boast a kids club, multiple food and beverage outlets, a fully equipped gym, and a Namm signature spa offering a range of Thai massage therapies and beauty treatments.

Guests will find three main private beaches to relax on, plus a smaller ‘picnic beach’.

Leveraging the resort’s proximity to Malé International airport, which is only five minutes away by speedboat, the resort’s developers also plan to open a resort-based entertainment hub and small convention centre, catering to guests beyond the core resort.

These will be announced later and will also be managed by Dusit.

dusitD2 Feydhoo Maldives will be Dusit’s second resort in the Maldives.

The group also operates Dusit Thani Maldives, a luxury resort on Mudhdhoo Island in Baa Atoll – the Maldives’ first UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve.

“The Maldives is a strategic market for us, and this exciting addition complements our existing presence in the luxury segment by offering a distinct lifestyle experience for families and young couples seeking an unforgettable and accessible Maldivian escape,” said Gilles Cretallaz, COO, Dusit International.

Dusit’s portfolio of hotels, resorts, and villas includes approximately 300 properties operating under a total of eight brands across 18 countries.
