Ever wanted your own private island without the hassle of maintaining it yourself? Lucky for you, the W Maldives is opening its doors—all of them, actually. The resort’s new “Extreme Island Takeover” package offers guests exclusive use of Fesdu Island in the North Ari Atoll. The deal includes access to 78 private bungalows, each of which comes with its own pool and patio, and a number of other luxury amenities.

The package is perfect for large groups or those who simply prefer seclusion—and with the 78 bungalows, it could easily be the location of your next family reunion, destination wedding, or company retreat. Whatever the occasion, its white sandy beaches, stunning lagoons, and diverse recreational offerings make it the perfect vacation destination.

 

Guests will truly experience freedom on Fesdu Island. The package includes access to six gourmet restaurants and bars, including an underground nightclub 15Below. Guests also get unlimited access to the overwater spa, which offers a variety of massages and treatments; and the recreational facilities, where you can take part in boating excursions, diving expeditions, and fitness classes. Even transportation is provided on the house, with shared seaplane transfers to and from the resort at no extra cost.

But all these “free” services come at a steep cost. The W doesn’t offer stays shorter than four nights, and the most inexpensive offering is $4 million. A five-night stay costs $4.75 million, while the six-night booking goes for $5.5 million. A week-long takeover will run you $6.25 million.

To book the entire island, you can either call +960 666 2222 or email reservations.wmaldives@whotels.com. Find out more about the package deal here. Get a preview of what the resort offers with the additional photos below.
