Sirru Fen Fushi, The Girls’ Getaway of Dreams
Round up your favourite people and set course for Sirru Fen Fushi, a tucked-away paradise in the Shaviyani Atoll where time moves slower, laughter carries farther, and every day feels like a private celebration. A proud member of The Leading Hotels of the World, this island sanctuary is cradled by one of the Maldives’ largest natural lagoons, a glassy expanse made for sunrise swims and lazy afternoons afloat.Home to the Sirru Residences, this exclusive enclave of three beachfront villas invites guests to indulge in a world of unparalleled space, privacy and quiet sophistication. Set along a private stretch of powder-soft sand, each beachfront residence feels like its own world.
Each villa opens directly onto a private cove with views across the lagoons. Spend lazy mornings floating in your infinity pool, enjoy long, unhurried breakfasts in the sun, or gather for sunset cocktails as the sky turns rose gold. Venture beneath the waves at the Coralarium – The Maldives’ first semi-submerged art gallery, unwind with an in-villa massage or gather around a starlit table for a feast of fresh Maldivian flavours.Guests can enjoy the new pottery classes, in partnership with The Clay Studio Maldives to experience the art of pottery through communal, hands-on workshops in wheel throwing, hand building and pottery painting for all ages.
Whether you’re diving into the lagoon, swapping stories beneath the stars, or simply basking in the quiet luxury of your private pool, Sirru Fen Fushi offers that rare kind of escape, one that feels both deeply personal and endlessly shared.
