 Kanuhura
is a coral island hideaway in a remote atoll of the Maldives in the
Indian Ocean. A seaplane brings you to the resort’s timber and
thatch on white sand, smiling service and the most up-to-date
facilities.
With its two
beautiful little island neighbours, Kanuhura is a very private
hideaway with a wide range of relaxations, bars, restaurants,
activities and sports. Close by are some of the world’s best diving
sites, with the outer reef dropping down nearly 2,000 metres. It has
a spa, an aerobics studio and gymnasium.
Accommodation is in villas either on the island’s
coral sand fringe or in a little village on stilts at the end of a
wooden pier. ‘In-villa’ dining is a speciality, providing romantic
dinners and special celebrations in the privacy of your villa, or
various locations on the island.
Location
Kanuhura is located on the eastern rim of Lhaviyani
Atoll, on its own private island. The island measures approximately
1000 meters in length and 200 meters in width, with a north-south
orientation.
Spa
A diverse range of treatments and a comprehensive
range of facilities, within beautifully wooden interiors, provide
guests with a sanctuary for relaxation and overall body care.
Signature massages like the Aroma Stone Therapy and Maldivian Theyo
Dhemun are a “must-try”.
The spa also has a fully equipped fitness centre,
aerobics studio, spa boutique, and separate steam bath, dry sauna,
cold plunge pools and Jacuzzis, for ladies and gentlemen. The spa
has eight treatment rooms including four doubles. The outdoor spa
pavilion is the ideal setting for massages overlooking the lagoon.
