[Seamless Arrival]
Our adventure kicked off with a seamless and elegant arrival. A friendly representative from the Anantara Kihavah team met us at the airport, ensuring a stress-free transition to the seaplane terminal. From there, we embarked on a breathtaking 35-minute seaplane journey toward the northern reaches of the Maldives, ultimately landing in the UNESCO biosphere reserve of Baa Atoll, where the Anantara Kihavah resort awaits.
[Sunset Overwater Villa]
Our accommodation, a newly renovated sunset overwater villa, was a sight to behold. The blend of modern aesthetics and traditional Maldivian charm created a space that was not only luxurious but also incredibly inviting. The villa boasted a brand new outside area that immediately caught our attention. From this private oasis, we were treated to unparalleled views of the sun dipping below the horizon, casting hues of orange and pink across the Maldivian sky. It was a sunset experience that will forever be etched in our memories.
[Culinary Extravaganza]
Anantara Kihavah offers a culinary journey that is second to none. We made it a point to explore all the restaurants on the island, and each one left us more impressed than the last. The highlight was undoubtedly our experience at SEA, the underwater restaurant. As we dined surrounded by the mesmerizing underwater world, we enjoyed a delightful lunch while observing sharks, turtles, rays, and an array of colorful fish gracefully swimming by. It was a surreal and unforgettable dining experience.
[Private Beach Dinner]
Our gastronomic adventure also included a private dinner on the beach - a culinary escapade under the stars. The setting was not only romantic but also meticulously arranged, creating an intimate atmosphere. The delicious food combined with the sound of the waves gently lapping the shore made for a magical evening that exceeded our expectations.
[Snorkeling Paradise]
Although we didn't venture into the depths with scuba diving, the house reef at Anantara Kihavah offered an incredible snorkeling experience. Renowned as the best in the Maldives, the house reef was teeming with vibrant marine life. We found ourselves surrounded by schools of fish, playful turtles, and the stunning colors of coral formations. Snorkeling here was like exploring an underwater paradise just steps away from our villa. If, like us, you love snorkeling, you just won't be disappointed at Anantara Kihavah which definitely makes it in our top 3 for snorkeling.
[Spa Bliss]
To further elevate our relaxation, we indulged in a massage at the resort's spa. The spa itself was a masterpiece of tranquility, with a beautiful outdoor area featuring cold and hot pools and a sauna. The skilled therapists and the serene ambiance ensured that our spa experience was nothing short of blissful, leaving us rejuvenated and refreshed.
[Top-Level Service]
Throughout our stay, the service at Anantara Kihavah was impeccable. The staff's attention to detail, warm hospitality, and dedication to making our experience memorable truly set the resort apart. Every request was met with a smile, and the genuine care extended to us made our time at the resort feel like a personalized luxury escape.
[Idyllic Beaches]
Anantara Kihavah is synonymous with the most beautiful white sandy beaches. The powdery sands and crystal-clear waters invited us to unwind and soak in the natural beauty that surrounded us. Whether it was a leisurely stroll along the shoreline or simply basking in the sun, the beaches at Anantara Kihavah provided the perfect backdrop for relaxation. If you are looking for the best beaches in the Maldives, Anantara Kihavah is definitely a good choice.

[@dwilton2609]

Very well done! Excellent videography making this resort ever so inviting! Thank you!

[@dreamytravels1]

thank you! :)

[@ashahmad89]

Wow, beautifully shot! May I know what camera are you using? And do you need to inform kihavah on the drone shot? Keep posting beautiful videos!

[@dreamytravels1]

Sony A7S 3, DJI air 3 and a bit of Samsung Galaxy s23 Ultra. And thanks :)
Yes, you do need to discuss with management for drone as they are very strict.

Damnn🔥🔥 nice shots!! What period did you go??

[@dreamytravels1]

August 23, thanks!

Amazing experience bro, so I hear that they just have renovated their Overwater Villa to new look, but some villas still old (deck with 3 hammocks). Do you have permission to choose the villa type in advance?

[@dreamytravels1]

They should all (or almost all) have been upgraded/renovated by now. Feel free to ask when doing the booking :)

Great presentation and shots. Went here back in 2022 and you highlighted the unique and exquisite features of this resort perfectly! I even liked the dinner on the west beach. I had done the off shore sand bank thinking that was the best way to get a private, romantic dinner but I’m thinking the west beach would have been just fine (and less costly 😂).
Anyway what model mirrorless camera and drone did you use?

[@dreamytravels1]

Sony A7S 3 and DJI Air 3

[@angelsx82]

Would you recommend Lux South Ari Atoll?

[@dreamytravels1]

Yes! Very different than Anantara, though!
