Fourteen villas, one restaurant, and a reef you can swim to

Fly into Malé, then either our speedboat, which takes about ninety minutes and leaves twice a day, or a seaplane, which takes twenty five minutes and flies in daylight only.

Send us your flight number when you book and we will put you on the right one. If your flight lands after dark the seaplane is not an option that day and you will need a night in Malé.

Somebody from our desk is in the arrivals hall and will already know, because we watch the flight rather than the clock.

If you miss the last departure we put you on the next one and arrange a room near the airport. The room is at your cost and we will tell you what it is before we book it.

Breakfast and dinner. Breakfast is a buffet with eggs cooked to order; dinner is a set menu with a choice of two mains, one of which is always reef fish landed that morning.

Tea, coffee, water and soft drinks come with the meals. Lunch is ordered separately and added to the room, and a packed lunch goes out with you on any boat trip.

Yes, and the way to make sure of it is to tell us when you book rather than on the first evening. There is one kitchen and it orders once a week from the supply boat.

Plain rice, roshi, chicken and pasta are always available for children at any sitting. There is a highchair and a cot at no charge.

No. Two of the staff are trained in first aid and oxygen, and there is a health centre twenty minutes away by boat and a hospital in Malé.

Bring what you normally take. There is no pharmacy here and the supply boat comes once a week.

Good enough for messages, email and a video call that you are willing to repeat. It reaches every villa and the restaurant, and it slows down in the evening when everybody is on it.

There is no mobile signal in two of the water villas. If you need to work, the restaurant terrace is the best place on the island for it.
