Overview
Anantara Dhigu Maldives Resort sits on Dhigufinolhu Island in South Malé Atoll, sharing a lagoon with sister resort Anantara Veli and Gulhifushi Picnic Island. Opened in 2006 and subsequently refreshed, it combines a relaxed family atmosphere with sunset-facing pool villas, an overwater spa and plenty for couples to enjoy.
The 110 beach and overwater villas span ten named categories, from 119 m² overwater suites to the 321 m² Two Bedroom Anantara Beach Pool Villa. Half Board, Full Board and All-Inclusive plans are available, with children aged 12 and under dining on a complimentary basis alongside a parent’s meal plan.
Why choose Anantara Dhigu?
Families value the complimentary Dhoni Kids’ Club for children aged 3 to 12, the dedicated two-bedroom family villas and the broad, shallow lagoon. The resort’s bridge to Anantara Veli opens up additional restaurants and adults-only spaces, while Tropicsurf lessons and boat trips add a genuine surf option.
Couples can choose sunset-facing pool villas, dine across the connected islands and unwind at the overwater Anantara Spa, with treatment suites, Thai massage salas and a lagoon relaxation deck.
