Florian Leven has been appointed Director of Operations at Gili Lankanfushi
Gili Lankanfushi, the pioneer of sustainable, barefoot luxury in the Maldives, is delighted to announce the appointment of Florian Leven as Director of Operations. In this role, Leven will oversee the day-to-day operations of Gili Lankanfushi, drawing on over 25 years of international hospitality experience across Asia, Europe, the Middle East and North America.
Leven joins Gili Lankanfushi from Vietnam, where he held the position of Director of Operations at the five-star Mia Luxury Collection based in Ho Chi Minh City. Prior to this, he spent over a decade as General Manager of various luxury hotels and resorts, including The Capra, a luxury boutique hotel in Saas-Fee, Switzerland, The Legian Sire in Lombok, Indonesia and The Chedi Al Bait, UAE.
Leven joins the Gili Lankanfushi Maldives team at an exciting time for the resort, which was recently awarded Gold Certification by EarthCheck, the world's leading scientific benchmarking, certification and advisory group for sustainable travel and tourism, in recognition of its sustainability practices.
Gili Lankanfushi enjoys an unspoilt island location in the Maldives' North Malé Atoll, just 20 minutes by speedboat from Malé airport. Perfectly suited for couples, families, solo travellers and groups alike, the resort combines rustic eco-design, unparalleled service and stunning natural scenery with a laid-back-luxury, 'no news, no shoes' philosophy.
