New identity brings refreshed website, three resort categories and 10 guest experiences
Sun Siyam Resorts has unveiled a culture-led rebrand alongside 10 new ‘signature’ experiences for guests across its six properties.
The Maldivian-owned hospitality group – celebrating its 35th anniversary this year – operates five private island resorts in the Maldives and one boutique retreat in Sri Lanka.
The rebrand introduces a bold new brand statement anchored in The Home of the Maldivian Spirit, reinforcing the group’s positioning as one of the Maldives’ most culturally authentic resort operators.
A single identity now brings together all six properties under The House of Siyam. Each resort is placed into one of three distinct categories – Luxury, Privé and Lifestyle – designed to help guests and trade partners better navigate the portfolio.

Sun Siyam Iru Fushi is in the Luxury category, which includes butler service, while the Privé Collection features “boutique” properties: Sun Siyam Iru Veli and Sun Siyam Vilu Reef in the Maldives and Sun Siyam Pasikudah in Sri Lanka.
Resorts in the Lifestyle Collection – Siyam World and Sun Siyam Olhuveli – are “brimming with entertainment and big on recreation”.
The refreshed brand is supported by a redesigned website, sunsiyam.com, which now ties together print, digital and on-property touch-points with a new look and feel.
Central to the rebrand are 10 new Signature Experiences designed to extend the guest journey beyond the villa and immerse visitors in Maldivian heritage and creativity.
Highlights include Cinema by Moonlight – a floating movie night aboard a traditional dhoni – and Insta Villas, the Maldives’ first overwater photo studio, where guests can reserve premium villas for photography sessions.
A ‘Wow Welcome’ now greets arrivals with a conch-blowing ritual and Bar-Ception check-in featuring a welcome drink.
Weekly ‘Maldivian Roots’ events with showcase the destination’s culture and heritage, such as cookery classes and storytelling sessions, plus pop-up bars and tricycles offering ice creams.
Commenting on the launch, a spokesperson said: “The Maldives is often seen as a honeymoon destination with little to do, but we are changing that narrative by introducing a range of new experiences.”
Deepak Booneady, CEO, added: “This rebrand is not just about design, it is about experience. It is about cultural authenticity, purpose-driven hospitality, and creating moments that spark joy. With the Maldives’ widest choice of villas, the region’s most generous premium all-inclusive plan, and now our Signature Experiences, we are setting the stage for the future of island travel.”
