Cozy Nest — Fuvahmulah
Opened in 2026
Cozy Nest opened in Fuvahmulah in 2026 and is one of the newest additions to the Cozy Hotels collection.
Located on the island, Cozy Nest provides a comfortable base for travellers exploring Fuvahmulah and its surrounding marine environment.
The property is particularly suited to:
- Divers
- Couples
- Adventure travellers
- Marine-life enthusiasts
- Small groups
- Guests discovering Fuvahmulah for the first time
Cozy Nest connects accommodation with the destination, making it easy for guests to experience both the island and the ocean.
Cozy Roots — Fuvahmulah
Cozy Roots is a Fuvahmulah property designed around the character of the island and its marine environment.
For divers, it provides a base for experiencing Fuvahmulah's famous big-animal and pelagic diving.
For non-divers, the island offers beaches, nature, culture and local experiences.
Cozy Roots is therefore more than accommodation.
It is a base for discovering Fuvahmulah.
Cozy Art — Dhangethi
South Ari Atoll
Cozy Art Dhangethi brings the Cozy Hotels concept to South Ari Atoll.
The boutique property combines comfortable accommodation with access to the marine and island experiences that make Dhangethi special.
Guests can build their stay around:
- Whale-shark excursions
- Manta experiences
- Diving
- Freediving
- Snorkeling
- Beach time
- Island exploration
- Local experiences
Cozy Art is designed for travellers who want the flexibility of a local-island stay while keeping the ocean at the centre of their holiday.
Cozy Breeze — Dhigurah
Planned for 2028
Cozy Breeze is the planned future addition to the Cozy Hotels collection in Dhigurah.
The property will bring the Cozy experience to another South Ari destination known for its marine environment and island atmosphere.
The vision is to combine boutique accommodation with opportunities to explore the surrounding ocean and island.
Cozy Breeze — Dhigurah. Coming in 2028.
Cozy Scuba Club
Diving & Freediving Across the Maldives
The ocean is at the heart of the Cozy Hotels experience.
Cozy Scuba Club is the diving and freediving arm of the Cozy collection, connecting guests with underwater experiences in Fuvahmulah and Dhangethi.
Rather than treating diving as simply another hotel activity, Cozy Scuba Club is built around the marine identity of each destination.
Cozy Scuba Club — Fuvahmulah
Fuvahmulah is the home of our big-animal diving experience.
The island is particularly known for tiger sharks and pelagic marine life.
Depending on conditions and season, divers may encounter:
- Tiger sharks
- Thresher sharks
- Hammerheads
- Oceanic manta rays
- Whale sharks
- Reef sharks
- Other pelagic species
The diving environment is very different from the classic Maldives lagoon experience.
Fuvahmulah offers access to deeper ocean environments and attracts divers specifically interested in large marine animals and pelagic encounters.
Cozy Scuba Club — Dhangethi
In Dhangethi, Cozy Scuba Club provides access to the underwater environment of South Ari Atoll.
The diving experience can include:
- Coral reefs
- Channels
- Marine-life encounters
- Manta rays
- Whale sharks
- Reef fish
- Other tropical marine life
Dhangethi is particularly suited to travellers who want to combine diving with a broader island holiday.
Freediving
Cozy Scuba Club also offers freediving experiences across our destinations.
Freediving can be combined with:
- Marine-life experiences
- Reef exploration
- Underwater photography
- Training
- Snorkeling
- Ocean excursions
Whether you come to Fuvahmulah for tiger sharks or to South Ari for whale sharks and manta rays, the ocean remains central to the Cozy experience.
Cozy Deck Restaurant
Eat, Relax & Connect
A complete island experience needs more than accommodation.
Cozy Deck is the Cozy Hotels restaurant concept in Fuvahmulah, created as a place for guests and visitors to eat, relax and spend time together.
From breakfast before a morning dive to lunch between excursions and dinner after a day exploring the island, Cozy Deck complements the rhythm of island life.
Food is an important part of hospitality.
And Cozy Deck is designed to make it part of the experience.
Cozy Adventures
Explore More of the Maldives
The Maldives is an ocean of possibilities.
Cozy Adventures is the experience concept being developed to connect guests with the islands beyond their hotel.
The concept will bring together a range of island and ocean experiences, including:
- Private boat excursions
- Island hopping
- Sandbank excursions
- Snorkeling trips
- Fishing experiences
- Sunset cruises
- Private island experiences
- Customized day trips
- Special experiences for couples and private groups
Private Boat Experiences
For guests who want greater privacy and flexibility, Cozy Adventures will offer private boat excursions designed around their own schedule and interests.
Instead of following a fixed group itinerary, private excursions can be tailored around the guest's preferred experience, destination and pace.
Private Yacht Experiences — Coming Soon
The next stage of Cozy Adventures will introduce private yacht experiences.
This will give guests another way to explore the Maldives with greater privacy, flexibility and space to create their own itinerary.
More details will be announced when the experience becomes available.
Cozy Adventures is about giving guests more ways to explore.
Cozy Calm
Spa, Wellness & Time to Slow Down
Adventure is only one side of a Maldives holiday.
There is also the need to slow down.
Cozy Calm is the future wellness concept within Cozy Hotels, designed around spa, relaxation and wellbeing.
Coming soon, Cozy Calm is envisioned to include:
- Spa treatments
- Massage
- Relaxation experiences
- Wellness treatments
- Recovery experiences
- Mindfulness
- Rest and relaxation
The philosophy is simple:
After a day in the ocean, make time to breathe.
Cozy Calm will complement the active side of the Cozy experience by giving guests a dedicated space to rest, recover and reconnect.
Cozy Calm — coming soon.
Discover the Maldives Underwater
Scuba Diving
Scuba diving is central to the Cozy experience in both Fuvahmulah and Dhangethi through Cozy Scuba Club.
But the two destinations offer very different underwater experiences.
Fuvahmulah
Known for:
- Tiger sharks
- Pelagic marine life
- Thresher sharks
- Hammerheads
- Oceanic manta rays
- Big-animal diving
Dhangethi & South Ari
Known for:
- Whale sharks
- Manta rays
- Coral reefs
- Channels
- Tropical marine life
- Diving and snorkeling
Together, the two destinations demonstrate the diversity of Maldives diving.
Freediving
Freediving offers another way to experience the Maldivian ocean.
Depending on experience level and conditions, guests can combine freediving with marine-life experiences, reef exploration, photography, training and snorkeling.
Through Cozy Scuba Club, freediving forms part of the wider marine experience available in Fuvahmulah and Dhangethi.
Whale Sharks
Whale sharks are one of the defining marine attractions of South Ari Atoll.
Guests staying in Dhangethi can join marine excursions into the wider South Ari environment in search of these remarkable animals.
Wildlife encounters are naturally unpredictable, so responsible operators should prioritize animal welfare and guest safety rather than promise guaranteed sightings.
Manta Rays
Manta rays are another major attraction of South Ari Atoll.
Their movements vary according to environmental conditions, food availability and seasonal patterns.
For guests staying in Dhangethi, manta excursions can be combined with diving, snorkeling and other marine experiences through the wider Cozy experience.
Tiger Sharks
Tiger sharks are one of the defining reasons divers travel to Fuvahmulah.
The island's surrounding waters are known for tiger-shark encounters and other pelagic marine life.
For experienced divers, Fuvahmulah offers a very different experience from the traditional Maldives reef holiday.
Through Cozy Scuba Club, guests can experience Fuvahmulah's underwater environment with professional dive operations, safety procedures and responsible marine-life interaction at the centre of the experience.
Snorkeling
You do not need to be a scuba diver to experience the Maldives underwater.
Snorkeling allows guests to explore coral reefs, shallow waters and marine environments with minimal equipment.
Depending on the destination, experiences can include:
- Coral reefs
- Tropical fish
- Marine-life excursions
- Whale-shark encounters
- Manta experiences
- Guided snorkeling
- Shallow-water exploration
Experience the Maldives Beyond the Resort
The Maldives is also about island life.
Staying on a local island allows travellers to experience a side of the country that cannot be recreated on a private resort island.
Depending on the destination, guests can enjoy:
- Local communities
- Beaches
- Fishing
- Sandbanks
- Local food
- Sunset experiences
- Island walks
- Photography
- Nature
- Marine excursions
- Cultural experiences
The objective is not to make a local island feel like a resort.
It is to experience the island as an island.
Stay. Dine. Dive. Explore. Unwind.
The Cozy Hotels concept is built around five connected pillars.
