About One&Only Reethi Rah

An icon of North Malé Atoll, with 12 beaches, three pools and eight restaurants, from Tapasake over the water to dinner in a treehouse. It suits couples, families and wellness seekers equally well.

Freedom, island-style

One&Only Reethi Rah is set apart from the world, in North Malé Atoll, and built to feel that way. It is a place to disconnect and reconnect, and it works equally well for couples, families, wellness seekers and the adventurous.

Tapasake

Where the sand meets the sea, Tapasake serves Japanese-inspired cooking in a room suspended above the clear water.

A family programme

For longer stays there is a family programme of more than seven days, filled with land and sea adventures as well as quieter moments.

Island secrets

Long-serving staff share what they know: island-inspired treatments, organic food and the best of what lies beneath the surface.

Morning rituals

Start outdoors with paddleboard yoga, meditation in the gardens or a swim, then breakfast on a yacht or an early spa session.

Diving

The resort's two resident dive instructors take you to their favourite wrecks and marine encounters, for every level of experience.

Where to stay

Choose a beach villa, a water villa or the privacy of one of the residences.

The people

Two members of the team have been here since the resort opened. Their warmth sets the tone from the moment you arrive, through every meal, down to the smallest detail.

Dinner in the trees

The new treehouse rises above the tropical canopy and hosts a private seven-course dinner, with the sun setting over the ocean. It is made for proposals, anniversaries and small celebrations.

Protecting turtles

With the Olive Ridley Project, the resort opened the first rehabilitation centre for injured sea turtles in North Malé Atoll, run by a resident marine biologist.
