Sun Siyam Resorts has finally officially unveiled their first Sun Siyam-branded, private seaplane.

Their new luxury aircraft boasts a bespoke exterior which combines visual elements ubiquitous to Maldivian culture, such as patterns found on the traditionally-worn Libaas, stylized descriptions of the ‘Fattaru bai’ (gold medallions traditionally worn with the libaas), as well as the meticulously hand-carved patterns found in Liyelaa jehun - lacquered, handwrought containers or bowls originally crafted to be presented to the sultan, other royalty, or guests of honor.

Affectionately dubbed Kamana, meaning lady in Maldivian language, the design and idea was created and brought to life by local talents that work in the company. With Sun Siyam being a 100% Maldivian company, the team wanted to bring this concept to life, showcasing the traditional and beautiful Maldivian art to a visually compelling platform, such as a branded seaplane. Kamana will transfer passengers travelling from Velana International Airport to Sun Siyam Iru Fushi, as well as providing transfer services to their most recently opened property, Siyam World, where never-before-seen experiences abound.

Between Kamana, and their world-class lounge, Sun Siyam Resorts has elevated their already seamless guest transfer experience to even greater heights, providing a level of exclusive services that only industry-leading giants can offer

Sun Siyam group is a privately-owned company, established in 1990 primarily in tourism and hospitality with a selection of exclusive resorts within its portfolio including four-star deluxe and five-star properties in the Maldives and one boutique resort in Sri Lanka. Sun Siyam is the visionary creation of Ahmed Siyam Mohamed, the renowned Maldivian entrepreneur and is one of the most forward-thinking and dynamic companies in the Maldives. Sun Siyam Resorts is committed to building a collection of hotels and resorts infused with his uniquely passionate and colourful spirit. Sun Siyam Vilu Reef marked the beginning of the Sun Siyam Resorts’ story, which went on to include Sun Siyam Olhuveli, Sun Siyam Iru Fushi, Sun Siyam Pasikudah and Sun Siyam Iru Veli. Siyam World, the newest addition and a stand-alone brand in its collection is now open and will be a game-changing resort in Maldives, filled with extraordinary experiences.
