03 — The rooftop

Dinner under string lights,
music on selected nights.

The terrace sits above the street with the whole sky over it. Breakfast is served down at the tables, dinner goes up top — buffet nights, live music on selected evenings, and no need to leave the house for either.

  • In-house kitchen — Maldivian and western plates
  • Open-air terrace, seated above the street
  • Live music on selected nights
  • Breakfast served down at the tables

04 — The tour desk

Reef, sandbank, dolphins,
and a line in the water at dawn.

  • Dolphin cruiseLate afternoon out past the reef line, home at dusk.
  • Sandbank tripA strip of white sand with nothing on it.
  • Night fishingHandlines off the boat — the kitchen cooks what you catch.
