OZEN LIFE MAADHOO - A Luxury All-Inclusive Resort

The Island

OZEN LIFE MAADHOO is the third resort within the Atmosphere Hotels & Resorts portfolio. After the successful launch of Atmosphere Kanifushi Maldives in December 2013, the brand opened a wonderful & extremely popular fourstar superior resort – OBLU by Atmosphere at Helengeli in November 2015, OBLU SELECT at Sangeli All Inclusive in summer of 2018 and VARU by Atmosphere in October 2019.

Located in Maadhoo Island in the Maldives, OZEN MAADHOO uniquely offers a leading luxury all-inclusive 'Indulgence' plan, allowing guests total peace of mind and freedom during their stay.

A unique, luxury, all-inclusive resort in the Maldives, OZEN is a perfect blend of contemporary design and traditional Maldivian charm. From the moment your speedboat transfer is welcomed at the arrival pavilion, crafted from beautiful natural materials and featuring an illuminated glass floor over the turquoise lagoon, you know you are in for a special experience.

Two sandy oases linked by a wooden bridge – under which swim baby black-finned sharks, sting rays and multi-coloured fish – make up the communal areas. One island is the springboard to the overwater WIND villas, snaking across the turquoise water, as well the main restaurant, the spa and its RAW sushi bar. The lagoon is picture postcard beautiful and you'd have to go a long way to find a more idyllic swimming spot!

In 2022 a luxury all inclusive resort debuted its beach club, Hudhu Bay. On the menu are signature cocktails, relaxing unwinding sessions in the glow of the sunset, water sports, Mediterranean-inspired cuisine, and more.

Grab a bike from under a palm tree, or hail a lift in a golf buggy, and head to island number two where a modern, circular bar boasts spectacular views across the infinity pool, and serves drinks all day. From here, it's an easy journey if you're staying in an EARTH villa, hidden among the tropical foliage behind. The islands are so small that, thankfully, you're never more than a dozen metres from the unimaginably clear water. Download Resort Plan

With surrounding resorts boasting personalised butlers, private seaplanes and the likes, OZEN LIFE MAADHOO might seem limited on the luxury front, but there's no faulting the willingness and friendliness of the team.

Location

Beaches, as descended from the pages of glossy magazines, warm lagoons with turquoise water and one of the best diving in the Maldives - all this about the South Male Atoll. South Male Atoll (South Kaafu) is a group of islands in the Maldives, which lies just south of the North Male Atoll and is separated from it by the Vaadhoo Kandu channel. Showing the best of the Maldives, South Male region offers everything you can need for a memorable and comfy holiday. Read More...

Located in South Malé Atoll, Maadhoo is a north-south island, with its villas facing due east or west for the best sunrises and sunsets. It has a large lagoon and is close to excellent dive sites packed with marine life. OZEN LIFE MAADHOO is easily accessible from Male International Airport, just 45 minutes (35km) by speedboat. Free transfers are available 24 hours a day.

Villas and Suites

Located in the beautiful turquoise lagoon of Maadhoo island, OZEN by Atmosphere features 90 luxurious standalone villas. The decision lies between EARTH villas, situated on the beachfront with an outdoor bathroom and monsoon shower, or WIND villas on stilts over the water.

The Earth Villas (41) are located on the beach front with direct beach access and feature high slanted ceilings, traditional thatched roofs, spacious outdoor bathrooms and large terraces with manicured tropical gardens.

The Wind Villas (49) are located on the North of Maadhoo Island and are positioned over-water on creatively designed stilts, offering romantic cosy and warm interiors, seductive bathrooms, outdoor decking with lagoon access and over-water hammocks. The overwater accomodation offers a romantic & hypnotic experience ... really unforgettable.

All rooms are designed with top luxury & comfort, where modern interiors perfectly blend with the nature and atmosphere of the Maldives! Both feature fresh design elements and allow in lots of natural light through the large seaview windows. A nautical colour scheme of blue, green and white prevails and the look is clean, modern and ultimately restful. A well-stocked mini bar of various wines, beer, soft drinks and bubbles is replenished twice daily and pleasant toiletries are provided in the bathrooms. In other words - a luxurious lifestyle at its best!

Both categories have their merits, but with the overwater hammocks, a well-placed bath allowing the doors to be flung open and stairs leading directly to the water, the WIND villas make the stay extra-special. WIND and EARTH villas with pools are also available but are identical in interior design to their lower category counterparts.
