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.

Gorgeous Villa, Outstanding Staff – But Peace Undone by Large Tour Group We thoroughly enjoyed our overwater villa—modern, luxurious, and with direct ocean access. The staff were warm, attentive, and truly excellent. Dining was a standout: from intimate sandbank dinners to creative fusion menus, every experience felt thoughtful and refined. The first few days were blissfully peaceful. Housekeeping was excellent , especially Rilwan who took care of our needs. Unfortunately, that serenity was shattered by management’s decision to allow a large group of around 30 guests. Loud shouting, and a party-like atmosphere overwhelmed the shared spaces, transforming the resort from a calm luxury retreat into a noisy group-tour environment. Staff made sincere efforts to manage the disruption. .To their credit, the team went out of their way to acknowledge the inconvenience, surprising us with champagne, sweets, and fresh fruit in our villa—a lovely and much-appreciated gesture. That said, management decision allowing such large group bookings contradicts the resort’s core promise of calm and serenity. At this price point, guests rightfully expect tranquility and privacy—disruptions like this should not happen. Overall: Without the group, this would have been an easy 5-star experience. Read less

The resort is amazing by all means: breathtaking views, crystal-clear waters, and beautifully maintained villas.

A special thanks to Dana, who was exceptionally kind, professional, and attentive, she's truly great at what she does and made our stay even more special. The staff across the entire resort were friendly, helpful, and always smiling, creating such a relaxed and pleasant vibe.
