About this accommodation

SO/ Maldives is a private-island resort located on Emboodhoofinolhu in the Emboodhoo Lagoon, South Malé Atoll, operated under Accor's SO/ lifestyle-luxury brand. The island sits roughly 15 minutes by speedboat from Velana International Airport, making it one of the more accessible resort destinations in the Maldives for guests arriving on international flights. The property opened in 2023 and comprises 80 all-villa accommodations, split between 27 beachfront villas and 53 overwater villas, each with private pool and deck. The resort's concept is rooted in fashion and contemporary design, with three signature dining venues: Citronelle Club for all-day Asian-leaning cuisine, Hadaba for Levantine fine dining, and the Lazuli Beach Club for Mediterranean menus. Wellness facilities include a spa with hammam, steam and sauna rooms, organic treatment spaces, and a fitness centre. With a 4.8-star average across close to 400 verified reviews in its opening years, the property is positioned at the premium-luxury end of the South Malé Atoll resort portfolio. For travel-trade partners, SO/ Maldives offers a proximate-transfer option — useful for shorter stays and multi-centre itineraries — and a strongly design-led product aimed at guests who respond to contemporary lifestyle branding rather than a traditional Maldivian aesthetic.
