COMO Hotels and Resorts has introduced Maalifushi by COMO, a new property in the Maldives. The 20-acre secluded retreat and private island is the company’s second resort in the Maldives and its first in the Thaa atoll. 

The resort’s interiors are by Japanese designer Koichiro Ikebuchi and bear the hallmarks of COMO’s pared-back style, with locally sourced materials, natural light, and open vistas. The 66-room property offers a mix of overwater and garden accommodations, as well as another small piece of land that can be booked for castaway picnics and private dinners.
On the main resort island, tropical vegetation and exotic birds surround the private rooms, suites, and villas, as well as Maalifushi’s Madi restaurant and the Thila pool bar and lounge. Overwater accommodations, including a number of luxury suites and villas with private pools, as well as another restaurant offering, Tai, all overlook the ocean.
