Fushifaru successfully won the TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice Award for 2020, a follow-up achievement to the TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence Fushifaru received last year.

Additionally, celebrating exquisite teppanyaki and ‘surf n turf’ cooking, Fushifaru’s fine-dining restaurant, Raakani, has been awarded as The Best Luxury Dining Experience 2020 by the Luxury Lifestyle Awards and is also a winner of the World Luxury Restaurant Awards. Raakani, named after the Spider Conch Shell, exudes elegance and exquisite ‘surf and turf’ cuisine and interactive Teppanyaki dining experience in an ultimate beach setting, with the subtle use of local materials such as palm-thatched dining platforms with panoramic views of the crystal clear seas and white beaches of Lhaviyani atoll.
