Positioned over the lagoon with rich sunset views, Zeytoun showcases lesser-known spices and flavours from incredible indigenous cuisines. Savour Mediterranean and Middle Eastern flavours – pure olive oils from the Aegean, freshly baked crusty breads, aromatic Turkish teas. All exquisitely crafted and served in refined comfort.
Smoke-laden flavours, infusions from distant shores – Ocaso embarks on a nightly journey from Latin America to the reaches of North Asia, specialising in Japanese, Mexican and Peruvian cuisines. Settle into teppanyaki by the beach and plates to savour under a moonlit sky – food that pleases the soul.
A beachfront all-day dining venue wraps you in a welcoming beach-house ambience with a bounty of gourmet flavours that bring happiness with every bite. Thyme crafts memorable dining experiences precisely to your preferences, just like being at home. Begin your day with a tailored breakfast, enjoy a luxurious lunch or choose your preferred dishes for dinner.
Great conversation, a perfectly mixed drink, delicious tapas plates served under the sparkle of the Maldivian sky. A poolside bar lets you enjoy life’s simplest luxuries: sunset, kinship and the peace of an island sanctuary. Complimentary gourmet canapés are available throughout the day.

The island’s signature house, this three-bedroom mansion was designed as the ultimate beach home. Available for once-in-a-lifetime stays, it’s our castle on the sand, located in a spectacular spot on the beach, with custom-made furnishings created with hand-selected materials. Objets d’art and décor capture the pure new bohemian spirit of the island, while the mansion’s sunlit, breeze-cooled spaces promise serenity and privacy, enabling absolute freedom.
Sprawling over the lagoon, with extraordinary sunset views, The Nautilus Retreat lets you live the quintessential Maldivian dream. Two bedrooms radiate out from the central living and dining rooms, each with their own brilliant view of the sea and en-suite bathroom. A wide, curved sundeck and sleek infinity pool foster family reconnection and long-lasting memories.
The Nautilus features two exquisite two-bedroom Beach Residences – perfect for families or groups of friends. One bedroom is downstairs – alongside a living room, dining room and powder room – with a spacious master bedroom upstairs. Panoramic ocean views stream into every room. A private sundeck and azure pool sprawl out from each residence across white, powder-fine sands.
Bohemian bliss on stilts over our lagoon. This refined retreat features a spacious living room with a glass-floor panel and separate bedroom, all custom-furnished and richly decorated to create a precious cocoon. It has an additional dining room with adjoining powder room and wet bar, and doors that open onto an expansive sundeck with a private infinity pool and steps descending into the ocean.
Elegant mansions by the sea, our two-storey residences are sanctuaries of effortless chic. Living and dining rooms on the ground floor open onto an expansive deck and a sparkling private pool. Upstairs is a sun-drenched king bedroom with breathtaking beach and ocean views, and a balcony with a spiral staircase that leads to the deck downstairs. The light-filled, en-suite bathroom has a walk-in rain shower and free-standing tub with superb ocean views.
Embrace the overwater life in your very own Ocean House in the middle of a turquoise lagoon. Revel in the intimate seclusion of a one-bedroom suite for two. Or connect with your clan in a residence of abundant space and privacy.
Nine elegant Beach Houses line our silvery shores, each just a few steps from the sea. Each Beach House features an oval bedroom and adjoining living room that opens up to a wide private sundeck, sheltered by manicured gardens, overlooking the beach.
