Sun Siyam Olhuveli stretches gracefully across three interconnected islands in South Malé Atoll, only 45 minutes by speedboat from Velana International Airport. Surrounded by expansive lagoons and white-sand beaches, the resort offers a unique combination of accessibility and island tranquillity, making it an attractive setting for both leisure travellers and corporate groups seeking an inspiring environment for gatherings.
At this year’s TTM Awards & Gala, the resort was named Best MICE Destination 2025, an accolade that highlights its comprehensive facilities for meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions. With versatile indoor and outdoor venues, the capacity to host groups of varying sizes, and tailored packages designed for corporate and incentive travel, Sun Siyam Olhuveli has positioned itself as a trusted choice for professional events in the Maldives. This recognition comes on the heels of the resort successfully hosting one of the largest incentive groups in the country, welcoming over 1,000 participants from India earlier this year — a milestone that showcased its ability to manage large-scale gatherings with efficiency and care.
Accommodation at the resort spans across various categories, from Beach Pavilions and Beach Villas to Grand Beach Villas with pools, Grand Water Villas and the spacious Romantic Water Villa with Pool. Interiors are styled with contemporary Maldivian touches, offering light-filled spaces, king-size beds, well-appointed bathrooms, and private decks that overlook the ocean or the beach. Each stay is complemented by modern amenities designed to ensure comfort whether travelling for business or leisure.
Dining is another highlight, with an impressive variety of restaurants and bars across the three islands. Guests can enjoy international buffets at Sunset Restaurant, Thai specialities at Siyam Orchid, Indian flavours at Namaste, fresh seafood at Maghrib Grill, Mediterranean dining at Culinarium, or casual bites such as pizzas and grills. Lagoon Bar, Dhoni Bar, Dream Bar and others provide social spaces for relaxed networking or unwinding after a day of meetings. Food presentation reflects care and creativity, often enhanced by striking settings over water or on the beach.
For activities, Sun Siyam Olhuveli offers a rich mix of recreation on land and sea. The resort features the longest pool in the Maldives, tennis and badminton courts, and a choice of two spas — one nestled within lush gardens on the main island and another over the lagoon on Dream Island. Rooted in Ayurveda and complemented by modern therapies, these sanctuaries provide tailored treatments that restore balance and serenity, allowing guests to fully unwind between meetings or after a day of exploration. Its PADI-certified dive centre and watersports hub give groups and individuals the chance to explore vibrant reefs, encounter manta rays, or enjoy adrenaline-filled sessions of jet-skiing, windsurfing and kiteboarding.
By combining strong event facilities with extensive leisure options, Sun Siyam Olhuveli has demonstrated its capability to host memorable and productive gatherings. Its recognition as Best MICE Destination at the TTM Awards & Gala 2025 reflects the resort’s growing role as a leading choice for both corporate and incentive travel in the Maldives.
