 Sandies Bathala 

Simple style, sublime snorkelling

Perfectly placed to explore the North Ari Atoll’s spectacular underwater world.

Sandies Bathala is a stylishly easy-breezy all-inclusive resort in the Ari Atoll. It’s a small island on the northeastern edge of the atoll, just a 15-minute scenic seaplane ride from Malé airport.

Why we love Sandies Bathala

  • Pared-back luxury lets the location shine – and wow, what a location it is

  • The crisp bungalows are light and airy with a contemporary beachy feel

  • The romance of the beach grill evenings, with fresh seafood served on a candlelit shore

  • Being all-inclusive, you arrive knowing everything is already taken care of

Rooms

Two room types (70 rooms in total) keep things refreshingly simple – you’re choosing between a bungalow on the beach or one over the glittering blue of the lagoon. It’s hard to resist the Water Bungalows which are located on stilts over the lagoon. There are no TVs in the rooms to help you completely switch off.

A single restaurant serves a terrific variety of dishes. For a special occasion, try the Beach Grill, where candlelit tables are set up on the sand.

The Island Gallery
Serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner buffet-style with Mediterranean-inspired dishes. Live cooking stations serve fresh local fish and pasta, and a pizzaiolo bakes fresh, authentic Italian pizza.

The Island Bar
A laid-back beach bar serving coffee in the morning and cocktails in the evening.

The fresh fish cooked live at The Island Gallery is unmissable.
