The hotel

If your dream holiday involves turquoise waters, swaying palms and cocktails delivered to your overwater villa, then Centara Grand Lagoon Maldives needs to be on your radar. This brand-new luxury resort in the Maldives is the kind of place where “paradise” feels like an understatement. Perched in the pristine North Malé Atoll, Centara Grand Lagoon Maldives blends barefoot luxury with Thai-inspired hospitality – think world-class service with a chilled-out island twist. From sunrise yoga on the beach to diving into coral gardens straight off your private deck, every day feels like something out of a glossy travel mag. Whether you’re travelling as a couple, a family or just living your best solo-adventure life, the resort’s mix of beachfront and overwater villas hits the sweet spot between wow-factor and serious comfort. Add in a choice of gourmet restaurants, a serene overwater spa, and all-inclusive options that actually mean all-inclusive, and you’ve got a Maldives holiday that delivers on every front. And because Centara Grand shares The Atollia with the vibrant Centara Mirage Lagoon Maldives next door, you’ll get double the dining, double the adventures, and even more excuses not to leave.

My family and I stayed at Centara Grand as part of our summer holiday, and we had a fantastic time. The room was spacious and family friendly, and the children enjoyed the many activities that the resort had to offer. We had sunset drinks at both Sunset Social and the club house, and both were unmissable experiences. The kids enjoyed the pirate party at the kids club, as well as the splash pool and lazy river at Centara Mirage. Would definitely go back! Read less
