An island resort on Rangali Island

Conrad Maldives Rangali Island sits across two naturally formed islands in the South Ari Atoll, 110 km from Malé and reached by seaplane. The property holds an unusual place in Maldivian travel: it is where Ithaa, the world's first undersea restaurant, opened five meters beneath the Indian Ocean, and where The Muraka — the world's first two-level underwater luxury residence — can be booked as a private stay. With 11 restaurants, three pools, two spas, and a PADI Eco Center running active coral restoration, the resort covers a wide range of interests. Couples, families, and divers all find reasons to stay, and whale shark encounters in the surrounding South Ari Atoll waters run year-round.

Indicative room-only estimate from the lowest nightly rate — excludes airport transfers, taxes and seasonal price changes. Many Maldives properties also require a minimum stay. Check live rates for your dates.

Two islands, one resort

The resort spans Rangali and Rangali-Finolhu, two separate islands connected by a 500-metre jetty. Each has its own character — one centres on the overwater villas and Ithaa, the other on beachfront villas and the main pool area.

Ithaa and the Wine Cellar

Ithaa sits five meters below the Indian Ocean behind curved acrylic walls, serving a multi-course fine-dining menu with reef fish swimming overhead. Two meters underground on the same property, the Wine Cellar houses 18,000 bottles across up to 800 labels.

Overwater and beach villas

Villa options run from 86 m² sunrise-facing overwater rooms to a 668 m² three-bedroom beach suite. Several categories include private infinity pools, ocean-view spa tubs, and direct lagoon steps. The Muraka, at 550 m², is the sole underwater residence.

Dual spa concept

The Spa Retreat occupies its own island position above the lagoon and pairs therapeutic treatments with organic dining at Mandhoo Restaurant. A separate Overwater Spa adds a second treatment venue. Outdoor yoga runs on the beach at sunrise and dusk.

Marine life and reef

The resort's PADI Eco Center runs coral restoration programmes alongside standard dive courses. Whale shark snorkelling excursions operate year-round in the South Ari Atoll, and guided manta ray trips include an educational presentation before departure.

Dining across 11 venues

Beyond Ithaa, the restaurant list includes KOKO for teppanyaki, Ufaa for Chinese cuisine, Sunset Grill for open-flame seafood, and the Cheese & Wine Bar — described as the only purpose-designed room of its kind in the Maldives.

Getting there

Getting to Conrad Maldives Rangali Island on Rangali Island in South Ari Atoll means covering about 110 km from Malé (MLE) by seaplane — a scenic flight of roughly 35 minutes. The resort books the seaplane with your stay. Seaplanes fly in daylight hours only, so late arrivals may overnight in Malé.

Seaplane transfers typically run $250–600 per person round trip, booked through the property. A few islands in this band are also served by a domestic flight to a nearby regional airport plus a short boat — ask the property which routing is faster for your dates.

Frequently asked

How do I get to Conrad Maldives Rangali Island?

The resort is 110 km from Malé and reached by seaplane transfer. The resort notes a 30% seaplane discount applies for arrivals between April and September 2026. Seaplane seats are priced at $700 per adult at standard rates.

How many restaurants are there, and do I need to book in advance?

There are 11 restaurants and bars on the property. Ithaa Undersea Restaurant and the Wine Cellar degustation experience in particular book up early — reserving a table before arrival is strongly advisable for those venues.

What is Ithaa, and is it worth the premium?

Ithaa is the world's first undersea restaurant, positioned five meters below the Indian Ocean. Guests dine surrounded by curved acrylic walls with a full reef panorama. It operates a multi-course fine-dining menu and charges accordingly.

What is The Muraka?

The Muraka is a 550 m² two-level private residence — the first underwater luxury residence ever built. The lower level sits beneath the ocean behind a 180-degree acrylic dome. It sleeps up to eight guests and is booked as a complete villa.

Can I see whale sharks from the resort?

Yes. The South Ari Atoll has year-round whale shark sightings. The resort runs dedicated whale shark snorkelling excursions with an educational talk beforehand. Manta ray trips are also available, with their own presentation session.

Is there diving available, and what is the PADI Eco Center?

The resort has an on-site PADI Eco Center that runs dive courses and guided dives. It also conducts active coral restoration and reef regeneration programmes, which guests can participate in alongside standard recreational diving.

Which room categories are best for families?

The Family Beach Villa, the Two-Bedroom Deluxe Beach Villa with Pool, the 3 Bedroom Beach Suite with Pool, and the 2 Bedroom Grand Water Villa with Pool all accommodate families. The Family Beach Villa uses two interconnected beachfront villas.

What spa facilities are on site?

There are two spas: The Spa Retreat, a holistic wellness destination above the lagoon on its own island, and the Overwater Spa. The Spa Retreat includes private steam and hydrotherapy. Outdoor yoga runs at sunrise and dusk on the beach.

What is included in the room rate?

Breakfast is available and listed among the property's highlights. Specific meal plan inclusions vary by room category and booking type — confirm what is covered when reserving, as dining across 11 venues is an additional cost in most arrangements.

What is the best time of year to visit?

Whale shark and manta ray encounters run year-round in the South Ari Atoll, making any month viable for marine wildlife. The resort notes a 30% seaplane discount for travel between April and September 2026, which affects the overall cost meaningfully.
