Ennismore has signed Mondrian Maldives, set to open on Kuredhivaru Island in 2026. Located just a 45-minute seaplane flight from Malé International Airport, the resort is situated on one of only a handful of exclusive islands within the Noonu Atoll.
Before being reimagined as a Mondrian, the property will operate as Kuredhivaru Resort & Spa under Ennismore’s management. Previously operating under the Mövenpick brand, Kuredhivaru Resort & Spa will remain part of ALL, Accor’s loyalty programme and booking platform.
Mondrian Maldives will unveil a series of spaces inspired by design, art, and culture. The aesthetic extends to the resort’s 105 villas, including 30 beach pool villas, 72 overwater pool villas, and three-bedroom beach pool residences offering direct access to the island’s beaches. Each villa features a private pool.
The resort will offer programming and experiences that reflect the Maldives’ culture. Guests can revitalise at the spa, recharge at the gym, or explore the Maldivian reefs at the diving centre. A yoga pavilion, tennis and volleyball courts, and swimming pools are available, while younger guests can enjoy the kids’ club. For food enthusiasts, there are four restaurants and bar venues offering culinary and mixology experiences.
Phil Zrihen, brand chief operating officer for Mondrian Hotels at Ennismore, said: “Surrounded by stunning beaches and turquoise waters, Mondrian Maldives will create the perfect sanctuary for our guests. In bringing Mondrian’s oversized imagination to the Maldives, we hope to raise the bar as a cultural and culinary destination in the islands.”
