Kuda Villingili Resort, an award-winning luxury resort with the largest swimming pool in the Maldives, has further enhanced its already luxurious offerings. From adding pools to Sunset Water Villas and transforming the entire resort into a pool destination to introducing Teppanyaki to its diverse gourmet menu and unveiling a brand new Padel Tennis Court, these new features are all part of the resort’s vision to continually elevate the guest experience on its private island.
Celebrating its third anniversary of luxury hospitality, Kuda Villingili has redefined time and space for discerning guests with meticulously designed accommodations, seven fine dining restaurants, world-class surf breaks and unforgettable guest experiences.
These exciting upgrades will see the addition of stunning 10-metre infinity edge pools to the existing 16 Sunset Water Villas, providing guests with the ideal place to relax while enjoying spectacular views of the sun setting over the Indian Ocean.
Kuda Villingili Resort is acclaimed for its extraordinary and diverse culinary experiences and is one of the few resorts in the Maldives to offer Japanese cuisine. The private island’s signature restaurant, Mar-Umi, proudly serves exquisite flavours born from the cultural exchange between Japan and Peru. This year, Mar-Umi’s flavours and heat have been elevated with the addition of a new Teppanyaki table that can accommodate up to eight guests. The menu features sustainable and locally sourced ingredients, ensuring a dining experience that is not only ethically responsible but also incredibly delicious. The resort’s signature restaurant, Mar-Umi, offers a carefully selected collection of sakes that are perfectly matched with every dish. Teppanyaki is available for lunch and dinner, offering a thoughtfully crafted set menu.
Sports and recreation enthusiasts will be delighted with the addition of two floodlit tennis courts, volleyball and futsal courts, a state-of-the-art gym, an Olympic-sized swimming pool and the newly added padel tennis court. Kuda-Villingili already offers a wealth of recreation and wellness options. An increasingly popular racquet sport, padel tennis offers an overall physical challenge and is perfect for serious training for two or a fun family bonding activity.
