The first Hard Rock Hotel in the Maldives, this music-led resort runs on Akasdhoo Island in the Emboodhoo Lagoon of the South Malé Atoll, around a 15-minute speedboat from Velana International Airport. It forms part of CROSSROADS Maldives, the country’s first integrated leisure destination, linked by a 500-meter footbridge to The Marina @ CROSSROADS, a dining and entertainment hub it shares with sister property SAii Lagoon.
Accommodation runs to 178 rooms and villas, from beach and family studios up to one- and two-bedroom overwater pool villas and the signature Rock Star Villa, which adds a tuk-tuk bar and private infinity pool.
The Hard Rock identity runs throughout, with Fender guitars and turntables in the rooms through the Sound of Your Stay program, live music, and all-inclusive meal plans available across the resort.
