One&Only Kanuhura Resort & Spa is a well deserved member of the select group 'The Leading Small Hotels of the
World'.
Just 1 km long and 200 m wide, only 8% of the
island has been used for the resort, permitting the remaining foliage to continue to blossom and bloom, enticing you to take relaxing
strolls and discover its never ending beauty.
This attractive luxury resort overlooks one of the Maldives loveliest beaches and a huge,
virtually coral-free lagoon known for its stunning marine life.
