The Residence Maldives at Falhumaafushi is a private-island resort in Gaafu Alifu Atoll in the southern Maldives. It is part of Cenizaro's Residence collection and is distinct from the neighbouring Dhigurah resort. A one-kilometre bridge connects the sister islands, making it useful to understand both properties when planning a stay.
The island has 94 beach and overwater villas with thatched roofs, natural materials and contemporary interiors. Categories include one-bedroom beach villas, beach pool villas, water villas and water pool villas, as well as two-bedroom pool options. A private pool is category-dependent here, so check the complete room name rather than assuming every villa has one.
Dining includes The Dining Room by the beach and The Falhumaa over the water, alongside the Beach Bar, Library Bar and private dining arrangements. The resort also describes an Earth Basket farm-to-table experience using produce grown in its kitchen farms. Meal-plan inclusions, restaurant access and any special-dining supplements should be confirmed with the booking.
The resort accommodates both romantic trips and family holidays, with a choice between beachfront surroundings and an overwater outlook. Snorkelling, diving and island excursions give active guests alternatives to time on the sand. Its southern location makes the full transfer itinerary an important part of the holiday plan. Ask the resort to specify the onward travel arrangements, total cost and connection requirements before fixing international flights.
