Amilla Maldives has once again been recognised among the Maldives’ leading luxury resorts in the Travel + Leisure Luxury Awards Asia Pacific 2026, securing positions in two competitive categories: Top 8 Best Resorts for Families and Top 8 Best House Reefs in the Maldives.
The latest accolades further strengthen Amilla’s reputation for offering outstanding experiences both on land and beneath the surface, combining spacious island accommodation, carefully curated family activities and one of the country’s most vibrant marine ecosystems.
The awards also underline the resort’s consistent performance in recent years. Amilla has been ranked among the Maldives’ Best Resorts for Families for three consecutive years, placing Top 7 in 2024, Top 2 in 2025 and Top 8 in 2026. Its flourishing marine environment has also earned recognition among the Maldives’ Best House Reefs in both 2024 and 2026, reflecting the resort’s continued focus on reef conservation and guest experiences centred on the natural beauty of Baa Atoll.
"We are honoured to be recognised once again by Travel + Leisure and its readers," said Shiman Mohamed, Resort Manager at Amilla Maldives.
