Barefoot Wellness Simplicity in South Male Atoll

Situated on the private, intimate island of Makunufushi in South Male Atoll just a 40-minute luxury speedboat journey from Male International Airport, COMO Cocoa Island is an internationally acclaimed barefoot wellness sanctuary celebrated for its iconic overwater architecture and tranquil simplicity.

Designed to resemble traditional Maldivian 'dhoni' wooden fishing boats gently moored along a sweeping timber jetty, the resort's 33 overwater villas and suites blend Hamptons-inspired bleached woods, airy whites, and custom Kajan thatch with floor-to-ceiling glass that reveals crystal-clear turquoise lagoons and vibrant coral gardens right below.

Wellness is central to the Cocoa experience at the award-winning COMO Shambhala Retreat, home to one of the only heated hydrotherapy pools in the Maldives, open-air yoga pavilions, and holistic Asian-inspired therapies. Exceptional gastronomy takes center stage at Ufaa, where Indian-Mediterranean flavors, freshly caught seafood, and nutrition-focused COMO Shambhala Cuisine are served foot-in-the-sand alongside craft cocktails at Faru Bar. Surrounded by world-renowned dive sites including the famous Cocoa Thila, guests encounter manta rays, eagle rays, and reef sharks.
