Thailand’s Minor Hotels Group has signed the first Avani resort in Maldives.
The Avani Fares Maldives Resort will be located on a private 12.4 hectare island in the Baa Atoll and is scheduled to open in Q4 2019.
This $70 million resort development is a joint venture partnership between Minor Hotels and Cyprea. Cyprea Group’s diversified Sri Lanka and Maldives business portfolio includes ownership and operation of Club Med Kani Maldives Resort located in North Male’ Atoll.
Alejandro Bernabe, Group Director Avani Hotels & Resorts said, “The Avani design philosophy is interestingly relaxed and contemporary and in tune with the environment of this development, using natural textures, colours and materials that reflect the location whilst incorporating advanced technology and modern conveniences.”
The Avani Fares Maldives Resort will comprise 200 guest rooms, including standard rooms and a selection of villas.
On arrival guests will immediately be welcomed by an arresting view of the Indian Ocean from the open plan lobby. This communal living space will blend reception, lounge, meeting space, all day restaurant and The Pantry, serving a mix of comfort food and artisanal deli snacks around the clock.
The resort will also feature a speciality restaurant, a spa, kids club and a large communal swimming pool and pool bar. The nearby Ahivahfushi Beyru dive site offers amazing reef diving with a plethora of sea life including Hawksbill Turtles, Reef Sharks and Manta Rays.
The resort is 45 minutes by sea plane from Male and 30 minutes by speedboat from the newly opened domestic airport on Baa Atoll. “Maldives is the ultimate beach destination in the world and we are excited to deliver an alternative hospitality offering in the region. Avani is a true lifestyle brand. Imaginatively blending genuine hospitality and modernity with savvy design and contemporary style. The Avani experience is designed to satisfy important guests’ needs,” said Bernabe.
