Tucked away on the private island of Thilamaafushi in the Lhaviyani Atoll, Le Méridien Maldives Resort & Spa is the kind of place where time slows, connections deepen, and memories form effortlessly – especially for families. With its sandy white beaches and crystalline lagoon, the resort invites guests to reconnect through a curated blend of discovery, play and togetherness.
Designed with multigenerational travel in mind, the resort offers two-bedroom beachfront and overwater villas that strike an elegant balance between privacy and shared living. Each one comes with indoor-outdoor spaces, a private pool, and direct access to the shoreline or lagoon – ideal for barefoot mornings and sundowners with the family. For larger gatherings or special celebrations, the three-bedroom Thilamaafushi Beach Villa elevates the experience with its own stretch of beach, infinity pool, and jacuzzi – your own private sanctuary in the Maldives.
Days unfold at a relaxed rhythm, whether you’re snorkelling the vibrant house reefs, paddling out to sea, or catching sight of dolphins on a sunset cruise.
And there’s plenty to keep everyone entertained, from padel matches and cinema nights under the stars to singalongs and bingo that bring everyone together after dark. At Au Soleil, the resort’s chic, sun-drenched social hour, families can sip refreshing spritzes, snack on summer-inspired treats, and groove to live music poolside, while younger guests cool off with Le Scoop’s homemade gelato in hand.
Rooted in a commitment to sustainability, the resort also invites guests to take part in meaningful, educational experiences. The Marine Conservation Hub, helmed by in-house biologists, offers interactive sessions on reef life and ocean preservation. Just steps away, the hydroponic Greenhouse, which is also one of the largest of its kind in the Maldives, encourages families to forage for their own ingredients and dine together at the resort’s signature Harvest Table, a hands-on farm-to-table moment designed to spark curiosity in young minds.
For children, the dedicated Le Méridien Family Kids Hub is an imaginative playground of daily edutainment – from marine biology intros and junior mixology to creative arts and starlit camping adventures. While the kids are engaged, adults can retreat to the overwater Explore Spa, indulge in destination dining, or unleash their inner artist at a Sip & Paint session overlooking the water. Babysitting services ensure even parents of tiny travellers can enjoy peaceful moments alone.
Dining is a worldly affair with six diverse restaurants and bars catering to every craving: Riviera’s Spanish flair, Tabemasu’s refined Japanese teppanyaki, Velaa Bar + Grill’s wood-fired comfort, and globally inspired plates at Turquoise. Every meal is an opportunity to gather, share stories, and savour the island’s bounty.
And for those travelling with young explorers in tow, the Family Adventure package offers exceptional value: kids under 12 stay and dine for free, with daily half-board for the whole family, access to the Kids Hub, marine discovery sessions, and complimentary non-motorised water sports. Available for bookings and stays through 31 December 2025.
