It’s a stylish, all-inclusive resort in an enviable spot in the South Ari Atoll, where a house reef hosts colourful sea life, including angelfish and clownfish. It’s also one of the best places in the Maldives to spot manta rays, whale sharks, and turtles.

A soothing oasis to relax, enjoy a treatment, and sip a herbal infusion. The focus is on massages, but other treatments are also available. Pilates, yoga, and stretching classes are available.
While there isn’t a gym, there’s a choice of activities, including beach volleyball, water gymnastics, and games such as darts, billiards, and table football.
The resort’s dive centre runs courses for beginners and experienced divers. The resort is in a part of the Maldives that’s home to a large manta ray population in a season that starts in December to the end of April.
Superb snorkelling is accessible from the beach and boat jetty. It’s worth booking one of the snorkelling trips for the chance to spot manta rays or whale sharks. It takes a little longer to reach the best dive sites, but it’s recommended for the opportunity to spy larger species.
Other water sports include windsurfing, canoeing, and deep-sea fishing.
The resort hosts a researcher from the University of Milano-Bicocca who collects data to understand the ecological dynamics of the organisms of the coral reef.
Minimum age 8 in Water Villas.
Minimum stay: 7 nights 26 Dec-06 Jan.
