Unwind in peaceful seclusion with awe-inspiring views at this all-pool-villa sanctuary. This 11.2 hectare private island retreat lies at the northern edge of the Maldives in Raa Atoll, accessible via a scenic 45-minute seaplane journey from Malé. Lush vegetation, turquoise waters and abundant marine life set the scene for a relaxing stay interspersed with adventure. Alila Kothaifaru Maldives offers serenity and discovery in an awe-inspiring destination embraced by nature’s wonders. Remote and unspoilt with an air of tranquil seclusion, the picturesque Raa Atoll is one of the deeper atolls in the Maldives archipelago, offering abundant snorkelling and diving options to explore its incredibly rich and diverse underwater world. Beyond swimming in the stunning house reef, enjoy excursions to the famous Hanifaru Bay UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve. This protected marine sanctuary is the largest feeding and breeding hotspot in the world for manta rays and whale sharks, which at times congregate here in their hundreds.

Incredible stay at Alila! The suites are beautifully designed, modern, and comfortable, with private pools. The food and beverage experience is top-notch, and the breakfast buffet is outstanding. Above all, the friendliness and professionalism of the staff really stood out. We highly recommend it!

Lovely villas, attentive and friendly staff. Azim was an excellent host and Rizma was good as my therapist. I also liked that I got the full spa treatment, as most places usually finish treatment before the allocated time.

We traveled to Alila for our honeymoon. Great service, great food/beverage, and great overall experience. The snorkeling available just on the beaches of the resort were otherworldly.
