WHITE SANDS RESORT AND SPA   Go back to intro page  
 

White Sands Resort & Spa has brought together two well-known Maldives properties in one new resort by encompassing an Island Village (formerly Ari Beach Resort) and a Water Village (formerly Dhidhoofinolhu Water Village). The new ownership & management team brings with it professional experience from around
the globe and combines operations and reservations of both well-established and popular resorts. A discreet & unobtrusive enhancement program has commenced which will see the Island Village refreshed whilst retaining the natural, rustic charm and ambiance, for which it is famous. For the more discerning traveller, the Water Village provides beautifully appointed over-water bungalows & suites with direct private access to the lagoon from all rooms. A myriad of activities & dining options are available and packages are provided on a room only, half board, full board or all-inclusive basis.

Situated amidst an archipelago of over 1100 coral fringed Islands, and tucked into South Ari Atoll, lies the picturesque island of Dhidhoofinolhu and the White Sands Resort & Spa. 1.9km long, this coral island resort is surrounded by white sandy beaches, crystal blue lagoon and an abundance of tropical marine life
