Meerufenfushi Island Resort, known as Meeru by friends is a large island by local standards, occupies a site on a 70 acre island on the northeast tip of North Male Atoll. It is accessible by speedboat and the journey from the airport takes approximately 50 minutes. Much of the island remains untouched, with its natural vegetation intact. The island is surrounded by soft, white sandy beaches and is home to a great house reef with diving nearby.

All 266 rooms are tastefully decorated and modernly equipped. There are five different room types available, some with sundeck and steps leading to the lagoon and others that are accessible by boat only for total seclusion. Meeru is perfect for lazing on the beach, but there is also a wide range of both land and water sports for you to take part in until the sun goes down. In the evening, don't worry about dressing up as the restaurants are casual and relaxed, and good food is the order of the day. There are five bars in the resort including the new over-the-water Asian Wok Bar.
