Atmosphere Core Set to Launch Spectacular Resort on July 4th, 2024!

The hospitality company is officially undertaking the management of Kudakurathu Island in Raa Atoll, Maldives. Following a rebranding, the resort is set to launch on 4th July 2024. With this, RAAYA BY ATMOSPHERE will become the third Atmosphere Hotels & Resorts island in the Maldives, and ninth globally!

A little Bit About the New Atmosphere Core Resort in Maldives

Accessible by a 45-minute seaplane ride from Velana International Airport, the new Atmosphere Core resort is a sanctuary for travellers looking for a tropical getaway. The island resort brings lush greenery to the next level! Featuring 167 beach and ocean villas, and six varied dining choices, the island resort also infuses local tradition and global cuisine to bring culinary delights to its guests.

Kudakurathu is a captivating island that combines the untouched beauty of the Maldives with innovative design and is set to create a distinctive destination, says Mr. Ranjit Batra – President Hospitality of Kudakurathu Island Resort Pvt. Ltd.

Additionally, the resort offers a variety of adventures and experiences for adventure seekers. Guests can choose from water sports, diving, a playful mini-golf course and more. For the little ones, the resort is also offering a kids club, and an arts and crafts studio, allowing young ones and adults to get in touch with their creativity. If you’re looking to reconnect with nature, this new addition by Atmosphere Core is the perfect resort for you. The resort features a mangrove walkway in addition to stargazing watchtowers!

Guests can also immerse in world-class spa experiences immersed in the quietude of nature. Embark on memorable escapes, enriched by the vibrant heritage of the Maldives’ local culture!

As our group continues at pace with ambitious strategic plans, by adding ths resort to our growing portfolio in the Maldives, aims to further enhance our Atmosphere Hotels & Resorts brand posotion of ‘…A New Experience Awaits’. says Mr. Salil Panigrahi – Managing Directore of Atmosphere Core.

Since the launch of its first property in December 2013, Atmosphere Core has become synonymous with service excellence. The brand has not only pioneered culinary concepts but also brings guests innovative experiences. Additionally, Atmosphere Core also has three distinctive lifestyle brands – THE OZEN COLLECTION, COLOURS OF OBLU, and Atmosphere Hotels & Resorts.

SAii Lagoon Maldives, Curio Collection by Hilton, earned Hilton’s most prestigious award—the Connie Award—for the second time in just three years. As a result, this rare achievement places the resort among the top performers in Hilton’s global portfolio and establishes it as the only Hilton hotel in the Maldives to receive this recognition twice.

Alexander Traeger, General Manager of SAii Lagoon Maldives and CROSSROADS Marina, shared his thoughts on the win:

“This is not a win for an establishment or a brand, it is a win for every SAiiLander who puts heart into everything they do. Our team brings their personalities, their stories, and their smiles to work every day. That energy is what our guests remember, and this award is a tribute to that team spirit.”

What the Connie Award Represents

Hilton named the Connie Award in honor of its founder, Conrad Hilton. Each year, the company awards it only to the very best Hilton hotels, based on exceptional guest feedback, consistent brand performance, and top scores in quality inspections.

Importantly, this award does more than recognize strong performance; it embodies Hilton’s founding values—genuine care, memorable experiences, and heartfelt service. In essence, winning it shows that a hotel delivers something far beyond expectations.

The SAii Experience That Stands Out

At SAii Lagoon Maldives, that spirit shines through. The team welcomes guests not as customers, but as part of the family. Naturally, they embrace this recognition with humility and pride, while staying true to their warm, inviting style.

SAii Lagoon Maldives contributes to a growing Hilton presence in the Maldives, which also includes Waldorf Astoria Maldives Ithaafushi, Conrad Maldives Rangali Island, and Hilton Maldives Amingiri Resort & Spa. Although each resort offers its own distinct character, SAii’s fun, easygoing vibe continues to connect deeply with guests—and now, once again, with Hilton itself.

Overall, the award not only highlights SAii Lagoon Maldives’ consistent excellence, but also underscores the power of genuine hospitality. Through and through, the resort proves that delivering unforgettable guest experiences remains at the heart of everything they do.
