About Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Landaa Giraavaru
Four Seasons Landaa Giraavaru sits within the Baa Atoll UNESCO Biosphere Reserve — the most ecologically significant marine environment in the Maldives, home to Hanifaru Bay and the world's largest manta ray feeding aggregation. The resort has built its identity around this extraordinary location, establishing a marine biology centre and Ayurvedic healing programme that together make it the most nature-connected luxury resort in the Maldives.
The resort's Marine Discovery Centre is one of the most advanced resort-based marine conservation facilities in the world. A resident team of marine biologists conducts coral restoration, manta ray research, sea turtle monitoring, and whale shark identification programmes — and invites guests to participate in all of them. Snorkelling or diving at Landaa Giraavaru is not just recreation — it is conservation.
The Ayurvedic programme at Landaa Giraavaru is the most comprehensive at any Maldives resort — delivered by resident Ayurvedic doctors and practitioners from Kerala who provide full consultations, diagnoses, and treatment programmes. Combined with the pristine reef environment and the COMO Shambhala-inspired spa, the resort offers a genuinely holistic wellness experience.
