One & Only Kanuhura

One & Only Kanuhura

Without a doubt, it's the accommodation that stands out at the One & Only Kanuhura in the Lhaviyani atoll.

The over-water villas with their private sundecks and wooden steps down to the sea - and not just any sea but a 2-kilometre-long reef - feature traditional Maldivian design touches and materials such as woven grass rugs laid out on teak wooden floors. The bathrooms, on the other hand, are reminiscent of a Spanish courtyard with stone outdoor showers and a bathtub open to the sky. The little details such as the terracotta fish shower heads are a delight.

Two Grand Water villas complete with two bedrooms and living room - perfect for families - have recently been added to the One & Only Kanuhura collection.
