What's Hot in Kandima Right Now

05 July, 2021

Wanderlust is so last season! It’s all about living your best life and where better than our tropikal paradise on earth. Kandima is not just the hottest (desti)nation in the Maldives; it’s also one of the koolest.

Sure, we have pristine Instagram-ready beaches lapped by warm blue waters. But do you know what else is on the menu? Everything you can possibly imagine! Did we mention that Kandima is for everyone (and we mean, EVERYONE), so get ready to feast your eyes on what we have in store for you foodies, newly-weds, couples, friends, families and solo adventurers.

Honeymooners and those looking for proposal-worthy destinations, we are the resort for you! Jaw-dropping villas, Maldivian massages for two, private plunge pools, castaway private island experiences and intimate dinners await.

Are you head over heels in love, travelling with friends or a family wanting the ultimate trip of a lifetime? We have plenty of space to bicycle around the 3km long island with one of the longest pools in the Maldives, heavenly wellness options including an award-winning SPA, enough mouth-watering restaurants and water activities like no other to keep you all entertained for at least a fortnight.

As well as multiple private dining options, a resident acclaimed live-band or world-class DJs spinning tracks every night and the koolest kids club. With added safety norms, it’s the perfect escape for any kind of celebration or just a thought of a perfect vacation! Go ahead, book the vacation of a lifetime, and #JustPlay!

SPICE UP YOUR LIFE

This is not a drill; we have one of the largest dining options of all the atoll islands with ten different bars and restaurants to choose from. Make sure you eat at our incredible Sea Dragon restaurant and Forbidden Bar where our newly joined, uber innovative Chef Pairote Pimswat and his talented team create flavourful, tantalizing and authentic Asian dishes with a modern touch. There’s freshly caught fish from the waters of Dhaalu Atoll to juicy lobsters and crabs up for grabs! After you’ve eaten, make your way to the super kool adults-only Forbidden Bar via a psychedelic tunnel where live DJs play long into the night.

GLOW RIDER!

And now for something a little bit different. There’s snorkeling; then there’s night snorkeling! Ah-yes! Watch the underwater world light up as the sun goes down for an experience that’s unlike any other. Grab your snorkel, mask and a waterproof UV torch and watch nocturnal sea creatures come out to play. Keep your eyes peeled for a lionfish, lobster or an octopus and create your own galaxy of glittering bioluminescence or simply immerse yourself in the magical disco vibe as bioluminescent corals and anemones illuminate the sea with their bright, mesmerizing neon colors!

Discover the incredible range of aquatic activities here on our oh-so-kool island (desti)nation!
