Alila Kothaifaru Maldives

Raa Atoll, Maldives

Set on 11.2 hectares of pristine blond sand, this private island paradise is just a cinematic 45-minute seaplane ride from Malé, on the northern edge of Raa Atoll. Beachfront and overwater villas are scattered across the island, each with a private freshwater pool and minimalist interiors in natural tones. Guests can enjoy sunset cruises alongside bottlenose dolphins or snorkel with hawksbill and green turtles. After a day on the water, unwind at the spa or raise your pulse with an afternoon of beach volleyball. Dining here is elevated: a herb garden supplies spices for sundowners, theatrical teppanyaki at Umami steals the show, and Seasalt dishes up fresh fish delicacies and seafood, delivered daily. Don’t miss the tailor-made dining experiences – Alila, after all, means “surprise” in Sanskrit. Enjoy a sunset barbecue at The Shack on a private sandbank or a meal set in lush, tropical surroundings.
