Island and atoll setting

The resort is located on Fari Islands in Kaafu Atoll, Maldives. The property sits on a sandbank encircled by a coral reef sheltering diverse marine life including lobster, fish, rays, and sea turtles. The Maldives is composed of 99% ocean, placing the resort directly within this marine environment.

Grand Sunset Beach and Fari Marina Village are named districts within the resort property, each serving distinct functions. The Culinary Island is a dedicated dining area. These locations are distributed across the private island.

Gardens and landscape

The resort landscape includes thousands of adopted native trees and plants, designed to prevent forest degeneration and reduce the environmental impact of importation. The Mystique Garden features a nearly 100-foot-tall Banyan tree dedicated to the resort's late architect Kerry Hill, creating a distinctive botanical landmark within the grounds.

Environmental design and certifications

The resort was designed with extensive consideration of the local ecosystem. Marine experts studied oceanographic conditions before construction to minimize impact on the coral reef and spawning grounds. PEFC-certified timber was sourced from sustainable forests in Europe, and prefabricated materials were used to reduce heavy machinery on-site.

The resort achieved EDGE certification, which led to the Maldives' first green loan. Solar and sustainable energy systems power the resort, with sophisticated air-conditioning featuring cross-ventilation and LED lighting reducing environmental impact.
