01 — The house

New, bright, and steps from everything.

Palmcasa sits on a quiet street on Maafushi, close to the jetty, the cafés and the island's shops, and just far enough from the main road that evenings stay calm.

Inside it's all new: timber-slat walls, white marble, matte black fittings and big, comfortable beds. Downstairs, a sunlit breakfast room opens onto the palms.
