Summer Island Maldives has been recognised as one of the top travel destinations in the world, receiving the prestigious TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice Award 2024. This accolade places the resort among the top 10% of hotels worldwide, based on outstanding traveller reviews and ratings collected over the past year.

Situated just 45 minutes by speedboat or a short seaplane ride from Velana International Airport, Summer Island Maldives offers guests an idyllic barefoot beach escape. With a focus on personalised service, sustainability, and relaxed luxury, the resort continues to capture the hearts of travellers from across the globe.

“We are honoured to be recognised by Tripadvisor and the global travel community once again,” said Mariya Shareef, Chief Operations Officer of Kaimoo Travels and Hotel Services. “This award is a reflection of the dedication and passion of our entire team, who work tirelessly to create unforgettable experiences for our guests. It is especially meaningful as it is based on genuine feedback from those who have stayed with us.”

A long-standing favourite for honeymooners and repeat visitors, Summer Island Maldives has two restaurants, three bars, and a wide range of curated experiences – from private sandbank picnics to sunset sailboat cruises. The resort is equally renowned for its strong commitment to sustainability, having phased out single-use plastics, adopted renewable energy, introduced eco- friendly mosquito control methods, and pioneered the world’s largest 3D-printed coral reef recognised by the Guinness World Records.

The Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice Awards celebrate the best in hospitality, based on the consistency of excellent reviews and high ratings across categories such as service, value, cleanliness, and location.

This latest accolade adds to a growing list of recognitions for Summer Island Maldives, including TUI’s Global Hotel Quality Award 2024 and 2025, and the Leading Eco-Friendly Resort Award at the South Asian Travel Awards (SATA) in 2023.
