Speaking to the media, Michael Flynn, the Chairman of The Small Maldives Island Co said, "Our guests expect the unexpected and that is exactly what we are aiming to deliver them. The Maldives has evolved into one of the most sought after luxury resort destinations where resorts have their own island and house reefs abound. It is evolving, however, from being a honeymoon destination to a haven for celebrities and high end families who want anonymity and true luxury for their holiday experiences."

The modern design and the white washed walls of Amilla Fushi add more appeal to the reflections of the turquoise waters. The resort is surrounded by the attractive Indian Ocean and the green environment of the tropical private Island. The resort is a perfect destination for those looking for comfort, privacy and luxury. 

Amilla Fushi will allow travelers to enjoy best gourmet dining experiences including tingling cocktails and the breeze of the Indian Ocean, while watching the radiant sunset. They will also get best experience of different lifestyle in the cuisines specially offered by Luke Mangan, the famous Chef and Entrepreneur. 

When contacted, Luke said, "We will be foam, gel and smear free zone, thank goodness. We will have caviar and foie gras and truffles if people want them, but my goal is to deliver the opposite of overcomplicated and stuffy food". He further added, "It's all about fabulous fresh produce. We're blessed with local seafood. Fishermen will deliver straight from their boats to us and the lobster tank will actually be in the ocean under the signature restaurant Lonu. And we are planning to have the world's best fish and chips at The Fish and Chip Shop in Bazaar."

Lights out for W Maldives and Sheraton Maldives

It’s lights out for both W Retreat & Spa- Maldives and Sheraton Maldives Full Moon Resort & Spa.

The hotels will join millions around the world in turning off lights for Earth Hour 2015 to illuminate a powerful message about environmental awareness and action.

Earth Hour 2015 takes place on March 28 at 8:30 p.m. local time. Created by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), Earth Hour is the largest movement for the planet in human history, spanning 7,000 cities, 162 counties and territories with a digital reach of 200 million.

This year’s global tagline is “Use #YourPower to Change Climate Change”, strengthening its focus on the globe’s most stubborn environmental challenge. With that in mind, W Retreat & Spa- Maldives & Sheraton Maldives Full Moon Resort & Spa will activate a range of energy-saving measures during Earth Hour. The Retreat will turn off exterior signage lighting and use candlelight in appropriate public areas such as restaurants and bars.

Last year, Earth Hour embarked on the most exciting stage of its evolution to be at the forefront of crowdfunding and crowdsourcing for the planet- launching Earth Hour Blue. In addition, iconic buildings and landmarks from Asia Pacific to Europe and Africa to the Americas switched off. People across the world from all walks of life turned off their lights and came together in celebration and contemplation of one thing we all have in common- our planet.

“It’s a privilege for us to support such a powerful movement with such a simple gesture,” said Jean-Louis Ripoche, Complex General Manager, W Retreat & Spa- Maldives and Sheraton Maldives Full Moon Resort & Spa. “Earth Hour also reflects a philosophy we try to practice year-round: The small steps each of us taken can make a big difference together.”

Starwood’s pioneering Global Citizenship philosophy reflects the same dedication to sustainability among its 180,000 associates worldwide. In 2014, close to 600 hotels participated in Earth Hour in various ways.

This year will mark Starwood’s seventh annual participation in Earth Hour, making it one of the largest worldwide companies to make a pronounced global statement with a voluntary hour of darkness. Earth hour is just one of the many ways Starwood acts in support of its 30/20 by 20 goals, which is the company’s commitment to reduce energy consumption by 30% and water consumption by 20% by 2020 across its entire portfolio.
