A groundbreaking addition to luxury resort recreation has arrived with the opening of the world’s first permanent Overwater Padel Tennis Court at the newly launched Meyyafushi Maldives, a five-star Premium All-Inclusive boutique property.
Positioned directly above the turquoise lagoons of Lhaviyani Atoll, the striking court allows guests to engage in matches while immersed in 360-degree ocean vistas and the tranquil cadence of waves beneath the glass-like surface. The venue seamlessly merges physical activity with the restorative power of the marine environment, elevating the standard for high-end leisure experiences in the Maldives.
As part of the resort’s comprehensive Premium All-Inclusive package, every guest receives one complimentary hour of court time during their stay. The serene overwater location creates an ideal space for players of any ability—ranging from complete novices to accomplished competitors—to enjoy the fast-paced sport accompanied by the gentle splash of the sea.
Ahmed Siaar, Cluster General Manager of BeKind Hotels & Resorts, stated: “Padel tennis has become one of the fastest-growing sports in the world, and we wanted to bring it to life in the most spectacular way possible. Playing on water, surrounded by endless blues, transforms the game into something transcendent—it’s active luxury at its finest.”
The innovative court joins an impressive lineup of signature facilities at Meyyafushi Maldives, including an Underwater Dining Restaurant, an Overwater Wine Cellar, Water Pool Suites with Slides, a Mini Bowling Lane, and an Adults-Only Sky Bar equipped with a glass-bottom infinity pool. Every element has been designed to foster connection, excitement, and holistic well-being.
With its dramatic sunset backdrop and unmatched overwater placement, the Overwater Padel Tennis Court at Meyyafushi Maldives represents more than a sporting venue—it stands as a pioneering achievement that unites athletic pursuit, natural beauty, and refined elegance.
