Hotel information
A true island paradise, this luxurious beach resort brings together all the best of the Maldives’ natural beauty and fuses it with unsurpassed luxury. Refined, elegant and unique, you’ll fall in love with the One&Only Reethi Rah at first sight.
Giving you a slice of the Maldives paradise setting on a plate, this sumptuous retreat has a pristine beach, a crystal clear lagoon and a selection of luxury villas to choose between. As one of the largest islands on the North Male Atoll, the resort is a treasure trove of beautiful spots and curious secret sanctuaries. Through a collection of 26 stunning atolls, the Maldives provides a sense of secluded beauty like no other, perfect for both romantic escapes and family holidays alike.
Reethi Rah means beautiful island, and when it comes to breathtaking scenery, you have it in abundance. Private villas give you total peace and privacy during your stay, bordered by lush tropical gardens and fringed by the island’s white sandy shoreline. Lapped by the waters of the Indian Ocean, it’s a place that oozes tranquillity from every pore. With a selection of 12 beaches and six kilometres of untouched coastline, you’ll have your pick of out-of-the-way spots to spend your time.

The list of activities is endless, catering to every whim, and you’ll be able to find peace and serenity in The One&Only Reethi Rah spa. Family-friendly as well as perfect for couples and solo travellers, there’s a children’s club and on-tap entertainment to keep everyone amused.
If fine dining is your thing, you can take your pick from a menu of experiences. From contemporary Japanese to a la carte Arabian cuisine, there’s something to tantalise every palate. During the day, explore the coral atolls that dot the coastline, or take a trip out by yacht to soak up the sights and sounds that define the magical Maldives.
