Anantara Kihavah Villas

Life at the Anantara Kihavah Villas resort moves at a slow pace, almost lazily as if trying not to disturb the beauty of the landscape and the deep blue waters of the Ocean. Built on the Maldivian coral island of the same name and just a 35-minute seaplane ride from the capital city of Male, Anantara Kihavah Villas is a tropical paradise with one sole purpose: to make its guests feel like castaways in luxury.

The resort consists of four villas, two built on the beach and two built on the water. Each is a luxurious retreat with marble floors, fine woodwork and unique panoramic ocean views, while all four (even those overwater) enjoy private infinity pools. The glass floors in the villas floating above the water make an impression, which give unique images of the colorful seabed, while the outdoor baths immersed in water in the beach villas are also remarkable. The "small" houses of 260 square meters accommodate 2-3 people. The larger ones of 780 square meters accommodate 4-5 guests and have a personal butler.

The unassuming beauty of the landscape combined with the understated luxury of the buildings make Anantara Kihavah's residential complex a true paradise, but the experience doesn't end where the residences' sun-drenched private decks end. The Sea.Fire.Salt.Sky restaurant is a true one-of-a-kind gem. Sea. Dine in the one-of-a-kind underwater restaurant while watching the coral reefs buzz with life. Fire. Live an impressive culinary experience in the Teppanyaki lounge where the chefs will prepare dinner in front of your eyes in an almost theatrical way. Salt. Watch your dinner being prepared on a burning cube of salt in the traditional Himalayan way and enjoy the complex flavor that this method of preparation gives to your food. Heaven. Climb to the top of the building and cool off with a colorful cocktail as you watch the sun set over the tropical paradise of Anantara Kihavah.

The cost starts from €1,800 per day for small houses and reaches €8,000 per day for large houses. For more information visit http://kihavah-maldives.anantara.com
