Residence

STAY

On a postage stamp of an island that is just 200m long and 200m wide, Kudadoo is an intimate retreat that takes luxury to the next level. Designed by architect Yuji Yamazaki in understated, natural materials, there are just 15 overwater Residences – each with expansive terraces and private pools – that come with their own personal butlers that are on hand 24-hours a day for anything you need.

It’s the resort’s fully inclusive concept though, that truly sets it apart. Called ‘Anything. Anytime. Anywhere’, this means everything from unlimited spa treatments to champagne around the clock or even a midnight snack is available anytime and anywhere you wish.

The Retreat

DO

This is a quintessential Maldivian experience, where the ultimate aim is to relax and unwind. As everything is all inclusive, the pressure is off and the only thing left is to indulge in the unlimited offerings. Paddleboard from your Residence at sunrise, spend the day in the spa indulging in massages, experience a night snorkel, and tick off your ultimate Maldives bucket list from romantic picnics on a remote sandbank to swimming with manta rays in Hanifaru Bay, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.

EAT

The main restaurant is in The Retreat, where you will also find an incredible cheese and wine cellar. Of course, with the ‘Anything. Anytime. Anywhere’ concept, you can pretty much eat whatever you want anywhere in the resort at any time, whether your own choice, or something from the extensive menu which covers everything from healthy eating options to crowd-pleasing burgers.

There are various options for destination dining, where a romantic table can be set up on the beach under the stars, and guests have inclusive access to the restaurants at its sister property, Hurawali, as well as to 5.8 Undersea Restaurant, where extra charges apply.
