Atmosphere Core concluded 2025 on a high note, earning three major honours at the Layalina Editor’s Choice Awards 2025 for RAAYA by Atmosphere, Atmosphere Kanifushi, and OBLU XPERIENCE Ailafushi. The recognition underscores the group’s ability to deliver clearly differentiated resort experiences for diverse audiences, while maintaining a consistent focus on quality, comfort and guest satisfaction across its portfolio.
At the awards, RAAYA by Atmosphere was named Best New Luxury Resort of the Year – Maldives, while Atmosphere Kanifushi Maldives received the title of Best All-Inclusive Luxury Resort. OBLU XPERIENCE Ailafushi was recognised as Most Stylish Resort – Maldives. These accolades are based on Layalina’s independent editorial evaluation and key quality benchmarks, celebrating excellence across luxury hospitality, all-inclusive offerings and lifestyle-driven design. Layalina is a leading Arab lifestyle publication under the 7awi Media Group, with strong influence across the GCC and the wider region. Collectively, these wins highlight Atmosphere Core’s understanding of modern travel expectations, delivering experiences that are thoughtful, well-crafted and effortless to enjoy, whether guests seek tranquillity, variety or social energy.
Each of the awarded resorts brings a distinct personality to the portfolio. RAAYA by Atmosphere, located in the Raa Atoll, is defined by its tranquil setting and castaway-artist concept, inviting guests to slow down, immerse themselves in nature and adventure, and reconnect at their own pace. Atmosphere Kanifushi continues to stand out for its scale and consistency, delivering a generous all-inclusive experience through the Kanifushi Plan™, expansive villas and a long, natural island that appeals equally to families and couples. In contrast, OBLU XPERIENCE Ailafushi offers a more energetic island escape, with contemporary design and a vibrant social atmosphere that resonates with travellers who value shared spaces, movement and modern styling. Together, these accolades reflect a thoughtfully curated portfolio designed to cater to a wide range of travel moods and preferences with equal care and attention.
