Already a few months into his new position, Marc Gussing has been enjoying his role as General Manager of Huvafen Fushi, one of the Maldives’ most recognised and celebrated resorts for luxury Maldives holidays. His arrival to the post was greatly anticipated, with the vice president of Per AQUUM, Nick Downing, stating that “his involvement in all aspects of operational responsibilities gives him a tremendous advantage to evolve Huvafen Fushi for the future. I am confident that his in depth understanding of the unique Per Aquum DNA will enable him to continue to deliver exceptional service and unique experiences for our guests.”
Marc was in his former role as Director of Operations at the beginning of Huvafen Fushi’s existence in 2005, when it pushed the boundaries of what Maldivian luxury resorts were about. The resort is known for producing visionary concepts, such as the world’s first underwater spa, as well as executing a unique and highly personalised service. Marc Gussing’s presence as the General Manager, in Huvafen Fushi’s tenth year, promises further development and extremely high standards of delivery.
Huvafen Fushi is oft described as ‘A Waking Dream’, and there are no surprises as to why. Located 40 minutes from Male airport, Huvafen Fushi boasts almost 50 luxury bungalows in its intimate and romantic resort, setting you on the cusp of show-stopping views of the Indian Ocean and stunning beaches. Huvafen Fushi’s consistent appeal, in conjunction with Gussing’s fresh approach, is certainly worth witnessing on your next luxury Maldives holiday.

I am very proud to be part of such a visionary team that dares to be different at every turn here at Niyama.”
