A world-class destination for underwater adventure and exploration.​

Surrounded by a stunning house reef, Alila Kothaifaru Maldives offers guests serenity and adventure in the Raa Atoll, approximately a 45-minute scenic seaplane journey from Malé. The mostly uninhabited chain of islands plays host to some of nature’s most spectacular wonders, and the Alila perfectly positions you to experience the best. Enjoy spectacular sunrise or sunset views from one of the 80 beachfront and overwater villas. Spend your days in the company of our certified marine experts, as you explore the richness of the underwater world—from diving through incredible reefs teeming with schools of pelagic fish, to snorkeling with hawksbill turtles and manta rays. Come evening, cast out on a sunset cruise, and enjoy cocktails at dusk in the company of spinner and bottlenose dolphins. Or head to nearby Vaadhoo island, where you can witness the extraordinary Sea of Stars phenomenon, when bioluminescent phytoplankton in the island’s reef causes the sea to glimmer like the starry night sky.

Stay active with our state-of-the-art gym, personal training sessions, or a game of paddle tennis in paradise. Whether indoors or under the Maldivian sun, Fitness & Recreation offers revitalising ways to move and feel your best throughout your stay.

Reconnect through daily wellness rituals including sunrise yoga, breathwork, and mindful movement — all set against the island’s tranquil backdrop. Led by our in-house practitioners, these sessions are designed to restore balance, clarity, and a deeper sense of presence.

From Middle Eastern, Mediterranean and Japanese influences that inform the dining menus to the Portuguese and Arabic spices that enhance our cocktail selection, guests are treated to a bevy of flavours across our six drinking and dining establishments.

Thoughtfully crafted for curious young minds, Play Alila offers nature-based activities, cultural crafts, and playful learning experiences. A space where children connect with the island and create lasting.

As part of our commitment to sustainability, certain room amenities are discontinued or only available upon request. We invite you to learn what essentials you may need to bring so that you can ensure a more comfortable stay while helping us care for the environment.
