Before you book
How do we get to Sheraton Maldives Full Moon Resort & Spa, and how long does the transfer take?
A scenic speedboat transfer from Velana International Airport takes about 15 minutes. A shared speedboat operates for each arrival and departure on the resort's own schedule, and a private transfer option is also available for guests who want a fixed departure time.
Is the house reef good for snorkelling?
House-reef access is one of the resort's headline features, and it runs a guest-facing coral-planting programme with a resident Marine Biologist — guests can adopt and plant coral fragments as part of it. An on-site dive centre also puts more than 40 dive sites within reach for certified divers.
Is this a good resort for families with children?
Yes — the resort runs the Sheraton Adventure Club, a supervised kids' club with creative play and activities, and several restaurants suit mixed-age groups: Feast's all-day buffets, Masala Hut's relaxed, shared family-style setting, and Kakuni Hut's beach-club menu of tacos, burgers and poke bowls. The 205 sqm Two-Bedroom Overwater Villa With Pool, with two bedrooms and a shared living and dining area, is the villa built specifically for families or groups.
Is Sheraton Maldives Full Moon an adults-only resort?
No — it's positioned as a family-friendly resort, with a supervised kids' club (Sheraton Adventure Club) and family-oriented villa and dining options such as the Two-Bedroom Overwater Villa With Pool and Feast's all-day buffet.
What's the spa like?
Shine Spa for Sheraton — the first Shine Spa for Sheraton anywhere — sits on its own secluded island connected to the main island, facing the Indian Ocean. Treatments range from aromatherapy and ayurvedic massages to locally inspired deep-ocean therapies, alongside an open-air yoga pavilion and signature treatments including the hot-stone-and-silk-honey Shine Massage and the oxygen-based Shine Facial.
