About Anantara Kihavah Maldives Villas

Located in the Baa Atoll, a UNESCO biosphere reserve, is the luxurious Anantara Kihavah Maldives Villas resort. Surrounded by a turquoise lagoon and a sapphirine ocean, the island rises from the water. The powder-white sandy beaches are fringed with swaying palm trees.

For centuries, this island served as a refuge for Arab traders heading to the Far East. It was a lush paradise blessed with coconut palms, papaya, and mango trees.

To preserve the pristine nature of the island, no trees have been moved. The villas are built around them, allowing them to blend seamlessly into the environment. The design of the villas is a tribute to the sailors of old. Maldivian, Arab, and Portuguese influences have been combined with indigenous materials. The result is a unique, luxurious beach resort where the service is legendary.

Guests can enjoy numerous activities, such as snorkeling with manta rays and hawksbill turtles, admiring the sparkling night sky, and dining on a deserted sandbank.

Snorkeling with Manta Rays

In the protected environment of Hanifaru Bay, Maldives, you can observe giant manta rays up close. These impressive rays can reach a wingspan of up to 7 meters and are known for their graceful movements alongside their remarkable size. Manta rays play a vital role in marine ecosystems. They help maintain the health of coral reefs by controlling the populations of their prey, such as plankton. Snorkeling with manta rays is seasonal and available from May to November. This is the perfect activity for families.
