You absolutely must…
You absolutely must…set sail
Day-trips off the island provide a variety of possibilities to explore and play further afield. Try a spot of fishing on-board a traditional Maldivian dhoni, luxury atoll cruising on One&Only’s 55-foot yacht or sailing to a deserted island paradise for a champagne and caviar picnic.
You absolutely must…dive in
The Indian Ocean is as clear as it is warm and you’ll find myriad marine species just waiting to be discovered. Snorkelling, kayaking and windsurfing are great ways to venture further from the shore in order to enjoy and explore an exciting underwater world.
You absolutely must…pamper yourself
One&Only Reethi Rah offers an exceptional spa and well-being centre that is perfect for unwinding when you first arrive, during your stay and just before you leave! One&Only Spa, by ESPA offers everything from therapies, treatments and spiritual journeys, you’ll not have to look far to find what you’ve always wanted.
One&Only Reethi Rah is so called because nowhere else in the Maldives offers this amount of space and exclusivity.
Incredibly stylish and contemporary without negotiating on the splendid natural beauty of the island. All the service, choice and comfort of a 7-star hotel with exceptional views to boot.
The Whole Story
This really is the ultimate in beachside luxury and no ocean polished pebble has been left unturned with regards to your well-being and comfort.
Stunning views of the Indian Ocean, gently lapping onto sparkling white sand, make for an extremely relaxing and Zen like experience. The meditation moments don’t stop there because you’ll be living in luxurious villa accommodation designed to promote a fusion between nature and modern technology using minimalist Asian style.
Once you’ve stopped stroking the sleek linear décor of your villa’s interior you may be tempted outside to contemplate life from the comfort of your veranda or netted hammock.
You don’t need to stray far to experience a wealth of dining opportunities that can be enjoyed over water, in the Japanese, Tapasake restaurant, or on the land at the Reethi Restaurant. Both temples to cuisine are thatched on the outside and purely wonderful inside with a wide range of Asian Pacific and Mediterranean dishes that are fresh, innovative and composed with passion and flair.
Walk-in wine cellars, holding more than 900 labels, indicate just how seriously this resort takes its guests’ welfare and the Head Sommelier, Nicola Pitzalis, will be more than happy to extend your palate.
Of course, if lounging on divan-style bolsters, Arabic carpets and swing beds are more your herbal cup of tea then perhaps you’ll prefer an evening at Fanditha. This bohemian chic beachside spot is renowned for its Middle Eastern delights as well as chargrills, salads and an impressive selection of Champagnes and chilled rosés.
If you’re having trouble working up an appetite (yeah right!), then there are a couple of flood-lit tennis courts, a state-of-the-art fitness centre and numerous water sports for lovers of physical exertion. However, for a more relaxing approach to well-being, you may wish to indulge in a comprehensive spa treatment, tai-chi, yoga or massage programme.
The Rooms
Each of the 130 villa properties are discreetly positioned amongst secluded beachside groves or actually within the crystal clear waters of the lagoon. The contemporary Asian style makes the most of the natural colours and materials and combines coconut shell, sea grass, silk, teak and mahogany with sleek straight lines and modern amenities to create a very attractive and stylish living space.
Properties contain flat screen TVs, CD and DVD players, high-speed internet access and many other complimentary services and products to ensure your stay is as comfortable and relaxing as possible.
The en-suite double bathrooms are the ultimate in tropical chic and have gorgeous oversized terrazzo baths as well as a choice of plush bathrobes to snuggle up in after your soak.
