Atoll Tales
asiaSpa India|May 2019

A world of unmatched wellness awaits you at Anantara Kihavah Maldives Villas, both over and under water.

Atoll Tales

A sky observatory, an underwater restaurant, a wine cellar surrounded by powdery whites and beaches, and protected coral reefs— Anantara Kihavah Maldives Villas is the stuff of dreams. Located on Baa Atoll in a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, the resort is camouflaged by lush mango, papaya, and coconut trees. This tropical paradise is surrounded by a lagoon, and one can spend days gazing at the myriad shades of blue at play here—from azure to turquoise, and sapphire blue to sky blue. Or get to the bottom of it and explore the most colourful coral blooms, and a thriving marine life.

The resort is Gold Green Globe certified, making it one of the most environment-friendly places to stay in the country, aside from being among the most luxurious. Lounge in the comfort of one of the 80 villas, each with its own private pool, or live life king-size at the exclusive residences that include two-, three- and four-bedroom beachside and over-water villas. The fourbedroom Beach Pool Residence comes with a private infinity pool and can accommodate 12 adults. So, whether you’re flying solo, with a partner or with family, the resort is perfect.

UNIQUE EXPERIENCES

The resort packs in a series of memorable experiences for guests, both within its premises and beyond. Snorkel or dive in the surrounding reefs and swim with turtles and eagle rays. Set off on a game boat to indulge in some sport fishing, or sail into the sunset on your own private yacht, Ocean Whisperer. You could also opt to manoeuvre the ocean on a traditional Malidivian wooden dhoni, Duet, which makes for the ultimate romantic experience.
