As the festive season unfolds, we warmly welcome you and your family to celebrate this magical time with us at InterContinental Maldives Maamunagau Resort.
This year, we embrace the true spirit of the holidays—love, connection, discovery, and mindfulness—through a journey inspired by the endless blue that surrounds our island: a realm of ancient mystery and natural beauty. We invite you to step into Atlantis: The Lost Kingdom, a mythical world brought to life through soulful celebrations and immersive experiences, where timeless legends and oceanic wonders blend seamlessly with the elegance and ease of refined island luxury.
Nestled in the turquoise embrace of the Indian Ocean and set to the serene rhythm of island life, it is our privilege to host you in a sanctuary where barefoot luxury meets natural wonder. From sun-drenched days on powder-soft sands to starlit evenings beside tranquil lagoons, your presence adds a special warmth to our island haven.
This festive season is a celebration of togetherness—families reuniting, little ones exploring with wide-eyed wonder, and hearts reconnecting amidst the breathtaking beauty of the Maldives. Thank you for allowing us to be part of these cherished moments.
We look forward to welcoming you again to Maamunagau—where every visit feels like coming home.
