After a comprehensive six-month renovation, the NH Collection Maldives Reethi Resort has officially reopened its doors, marking a new chapter for this beloved island retreat in the Baa Atoll. Formerly known as Reethi Beach Resort, the property has been transformed into a premium sanctuary that blends Maldivian tradition with contemporary comfort, all while preserving the island's pristine natural beauty.

The resort's grand reopening introduces refreshed villas, new dining concepts, and enhanced wellness and activity facilities, offering travelers a renewed way to experience one of the Maldives' most treasured UNESCO Biosphere Reserves.

A Premier Location in a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve

NH Collection Maldives Reethi Resort is located on the private island of Fonimagoodhoo in the Baa Atoll, a region celebrated for its exceptional marine biodiversity and protected status as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. The resort's setting is a cornerstone of its appeal.

Accessibility: The island is accessible via a scenic 35-minute seaplane flight from Velana International Airport in Malé. For arrivals later in the day, an alternative route involves a 20-minute domestic flight to Dharavandhoo Airport followed by a 15-minute speedboat ride.
Proximity to Marine Wonders: The resort is situated less than 20 minutes from the world-famous Hanifaru Bay, a marine sanctuary known for seasonal congregations of manta rays, whale sharks, and sea turtles. This makes the resort an ideal base for unforgettable wildlife encounters.
