SIX SENSES KANUHURA
OVERVIEW
Six Senses Kanuhura is home to one of the most iconic beaches in the Maldives. This stunning hideaway is spread over three islands in the Lhaviyani Atoll, and has been reborn under the Six Senses brand. Fusing boutique credentials with an altogether laidback attitude, this fun-loving, iconic Indian Ocean resort now boasts an additional 12 new villa retreats. These are strewn along the coastline or above the water itself, and are cleverly positioned to face either the sunrise or sunset. Interiors are cheery and bright, welcoming in the sunlight and infused with splashes of colour here or there: fuchsia pink, turquoise, jade and coral.
A luxury holiday at Six Senses Kanuhura is not only about ‘lolling’ on a sun lounger (not that there is anything wrong with that). There is so much more going on, so should the idea of relaxing by the pool or beach not take your fancy, then the endless activities on offer should more than suffice.
Dining at Six Senses Kanuhura is another highpoint, as fresh, local and sustainably sourced ingredients are combined in sumptuous dishes from around the world. The renowned ‘Eat With Six Senses’ global initiative is followed by an international culinary team, who work tirelessly to merge delicious flavours and aromas from East and West to bring dishes to life.
