The iconic Maldivian Kanuhura resort, which has been reimagined through a Six Senses lens, is now open for bookings for stays from September 1st onwards. Home to one of the largest natural beaches in the Maldives, the resort encompasses another two white-sand private islands, one for intimate desert island dining and the other for the ultimate castaway escape. Opting to reinvent the icon, Six Senses has reimagined the existing resort and resources while continuing to protect the natural beauty of the island. 91 beachfront and overwater villas include 12 new Beach Retreats, which offer one to three bedrooms and private pools just steps from the ocean, ideal for families or larger groups.
The marine-hued rooms feature bold interiors which are polished over rustic, and resolutely eco-friendly with everything crafted from local and sustainable materials. The resort’s original Drift and Bottega dining outlets, as well as the organic gardens, where a microgreens nursery mingles with the beauty of wild orchids, have been enhanced under the Six Senses ethos. As couples enjoy romantic moments gazing at the sunsets at the new multi-deck Point restaurant and bar, younger guests can discover their creativity or more of the island and marine life at the Grow With Six Senses kids club and teenagers can take refuge at the Island Hideout – a space specifically designed for them. Together families can opt for family cooking classes, watersports lessons, or private beach dining.
