The quality of service at this luxury Maldives hotel makes of Kanuhura an incontestable member of the ‘Leading Hotels of the World’.

About the restaurants With its five Maldivian restaurants, Kanuhura provides cuisines of unimaginable variety for its guests and benefits from years of experience in fine dining.

Veli Cafe

Set on a deck above one of the superb beaches on this Maldives island, this is one of the most romantic spots on Kanuhura. Aromatic Asian fusion specialities include the freshest catch from the Indian Ocean served for dinner.

The atmosphere of this charming Maldives restaurant is particularly appreciated by couples on Honeymoon in the Maldives for its breathtaking views.

Thin Rah Restaurant

As well as the extensive outdoor seating for dining with your feet in the sand, Thin Rah has three open-sided indoor pavilions.
The central buffet area has a contemporary-rustic Indian element, offering Asian grills and Middle Eastern fare ranging from regional curries and wok-fried noodles to couscous.
Flowing into a Mediterranean theme, the rear seating area boasts a spectacular free-standing temperature-controlled wine display holding more than 800 bottles of specially selected wines and champagnes.

The Olive Tree

The Mediterranean-influenced à la carte Olive Tree restaurant is open for lunch and dinner. ‘Cuisines of the sun’ are offered for lunch, including light salads, fresh gnocchi and pasta, grills, and classic and creative pizza wraps inspired by the flavours of southern Italy.

Jehunuhura

Jehunuhura is a private island getaway just a short boat trip over the turquoise waters of this Maldives lagoon from the hotel. The island offers guests a relaxing retreat from the heat of the afternoon sun with luxury picnic hampers for lunch.
Couples who have chosen to spend their Honeymoon in the Maldives and others in search of a romantic retreat can dine on the shores of the Indian Ocean.
In the evening, the island hosts private parties or romantic hideaways for two.

Kandu

‘Kandu’ is another restaurant set on Jehunuhura, Kanuhura’s own private Robinson Crusoe-like island. Kandu means “blue sea” in Divehi.
This exciting new outlet, the first restaurant to be set on a private islet in the Maldives, enables guests to discover a totally new concept of Grill restaurant on a tiny getaway island a few minutes away by boat transfer from Kanuhura.
A real privilege on your Maldives holiday brought to you by Kanuhura.
