DINING:
One & Only Kanuhura Resort & Spa in Maldives, is a
luxurious six star hotel, offering the highest standard of
accommodation, service and culinary experience.
[click to see details]
Thin Rah - The main restaurant at One&Only Kanuhura, Thin Rah
offers expansive buffets with open-cooking stations where chefs
prepare themed cuisines and individual dishes for guests. In one of
three dining pavilions, each with a distinct theme and ambience,
enticing choices include fish, seafood and regional specialties,
fusion dishes, sushi and sashimi, exotic salads and fruits from
markets around the world, homemade ice creams and selections for
younger guests.
Tables are set in the airy open-sided interior of the thatch-roofed
restaurant or out on the beach overlooking the lagoon and poolside
for al fresco breakfasts and evenings under the stars.
Olive Tree - Olive Tree serves a la carte dishes from
throughout the Mediterranean and features an open pizza oven.
Specialties are fresh pastas, salads and a mouth-watering selection
of freshly caught grilled seafood and steaks. ‘Cuisines of the sun’
inspired by the flavours of the Mediterranean are offered for lunch.
Enjoy the intimate atmosphere of the restaurant itself, or take a
poolside table for a romantic candlelit dinner as a glowing sunset
fades into a million twinkling stars.
Veli Cafe - Candlelit romance on the shores of the Indian
Ocean sets the tone for Veli Cafe, with its white-linen covered
tables and chairs set amidst the luxurious shade of frangipani trees
on the beachside wooden terrace. An extensive choice of carefully
selected wines make the perfect accompaniment to fresh seafood from
the Maldivian atolls, fused with spices, pickles and sauces to form
a delectable Thai cuisine.
Jehunuhura Island - Across a 300 metre shallow lagoon
channel, just a five-minute boatride from One&Only Kanuhura, is the
resort’s neighbouring uninhabited islet of Jehunuhura. A pristine
powder-fine sand beach and a small manicured ‘jungle’ interior give
a true Robinson Crusoe feel to this little piece of paradise. Six
individual cabanas offer guests a relaxing retreat from the heat of
the afternoon sun. Chilled water and cold towels are served from
Cove’s restaurant, which is open daily for gourmet al fresco
lunches.
In the evening, the island becomes a haven for private parties or
romantic hideaways for two. Guests may choose from a selection of
custom-designed dining and overnight options.
Cove’s - On Jehunuhura Island is Cove’s – an unparalleled al
fresco restaurant that combines the charms of elegant dining with
all the romance of being on a ‘desert island.’ The simple, but
sumptuous a la carte lunch menu is complemented by an extensive wine
list and friendly service.
Handhuvaru Bar - Cool off with a chilled drink in the shade
with feet dangling in the sand… or enjoy the sunshine around the
pool. A selection of cocktails, beers, wines by the glass, and fresh
juices are available throughout the day, complemented by an all-day
snack menu of international favourites. This specious, partly
sand-floored bar also offers an outdoor terrace with over-cushioned
daybeds and over-sized chairs for two, and an interior with
inviting, cozy seating and windows wide-open to the daylight.
Evenings are relaxed at this prime location for watching the sunset.
For the connoisseur, Handhuvaru Bar offers a selection of Cuban and
Dominican cigars.
