W Maldives Reveals Complete Resort Renovation

W Maldives is entering a new chapter with a recent resort-wide transformation that includes fully reimagined villas, suites, restaurants, and more. 

The resort, part of Marriott’s luxury portfolio, has 77 updated villas – both overwater and on the beach – and four new culinary concepts, plus a renovated WET Deck, that mix “contemporary luxury with the island’s untamed beauty.” 

“The reimagined W Maldives embraces the deep cultural heritage of the Maldives, blending it with the resort’s modern design to create an immersive, elevated experience,” said W Maldives General Manager Amila Handunwala. “Every detail has been thoughtfully designed to reflect the soul of the destination, inviting guests to explore, discover, and unwind in a truly exceptional setting.”   

Notably, W Maldives now has its first-ever Supreme Overwater Two-Bedroom Villas and Oasis Overwater Two-Bedroom Villas, each with a private pool. The resort also introduces two new Oasis Two-Bedroom Beach Villas, each with water slides that connect the second floor to private pools. 

New food and beverage venues include FISH, offering fine ocean-to-table dining; FIRE, a beachside smokehouse; KITCHEN, the all-day restaurant serving international favorites; and SIP, the overwater, Latin American-inspired bar. There will also be pop-up culinary experiences throughout the year. 

The upgraded WET Deck is centered around the sleek Splinterworks Vertex water slide and offers a stylish spot for cocktails and poolside entertainment.
