Not just for kids, the forthcoming Siyam World, Maldives, which will be unveiled at the end of October 2021, has designed an ambitious floating water park in the sea, which spells out the name of the resort.
Located in Siyam World’s north-east lagoon, Siyam Water World is essentially a floating obstacle course for guests over the age of six to run and scramble around.
Siyam World says it is an “all-embracing five-star all-inclusive island resort that offers fun-loving, open-minded couples, romance seekers, families or larger groups of friends the freedom to roam, socialise and engage in an island community”.
Siyam World has 21 accommodation categories ranging from 89 sqm rooms to 3,000 sqm beach villas with up to six bedrooms. There are even over-water villas with water slides.
The resort is positioned on the popular Noonu Atoll, 40 minutes’ direct seaplane ride from Velana International airport, and also accessible via a 30-minute domestic flight to Maafaru airport followed by a ten-minute speedboat trip.
