Cocoon Maldives

Cocoon Maldives made history when it opened as the country's first design hotel — a resort conceptualised and entirely furnished by LAGO, the award-winning Italian furniture design brand. Every item of furniture across the 150 villas and public spaces was designed and manufactured in Italy, creating an environment that feels unlike any other place in the Maldives: clean lines, natural materials, floating beds suspended from the ceiling, and wildwood tables that honour the raw beauty of natural timber. The contrast between the contemporary Italian design and the pristine Maldivian landscape of Lhaviyani Atoll creates a visual tension that is both surprising and harmonious. Lhaviyani Atoll is one of the cleaner and less-visited atolls in the central Maldives, offering clear waters, vibrant reef systems, and relatively easy seaplane access from Velana airport. Cocoon operates within The Cocoon Collection, a portfolio of design-led Maldivian resorts that share common aesthetic values and hospitality standards. The resort is affiliated with You & Me by Cocoon in Raa Atoll — the adults-only sister property in the same group. Lhaviyani's proximity to some of the Maldives' best wreck diving (SS British Loyalty) and vibrant reef sites makes it a good choice for divers.
