Kuda Villingili Resort Maldives, opened in June 2021, marks the debut of THE CHEDI brand by GHM (General Hotel Management Ltd.) in the Maldives. Situated in the North Malé Atoll, the resort is conveniently accessible via a quick 30-minute speedboat ride from Velana International Airport (MLE).
The resort is uniquely designed, spanning four islands - a main island and three satellite islands, with two of the satellites interconnected by jetties, forming a natural archipelago reminiscent of a spectacular seaside city. This layout, combined with the surrounding lagoon, makes for stunning photographic opportunities and is close to one of the world's top surfing spots. The best time to visit the island for surfing is between May and October.
The architectural design is a collaboration between Mr. Sape from GX Associates Maldives and Mr. Garth Kempter from URBNarc Singapore, focusing on harmony with nature. The resort offers 95 spacious villas, each designed to maximize views of the pristine ocean, allowing the natural sound of the sea to enhance the sensory experience. The villas feature minimalist, chic wooden decor that aligns with modern aesthetics. Options like the Two-Bedroom, Three-Bedroom, and Four-Bedroom Residences make it an ideal choice for family vacations.
Kuda Villingili's extensive amenities include a football pitch, tennis and basketball courts, and an impressive 150-meter long public pool. Dining options are plentiful, with three restaurants and two bars offering a diverse range of international cuisine including Chinese, Thai, Indian, and Mediterranean dishes. The island also offers a rich array of leisure and recreational activities, from surfing and big game fishing to romantic dinners on the beach and pampering spa treatments, ensuring there is something for everyone.

How do you choose the perfect resort in Maldives?
Cost & Budget: Depending on the price, there are different levels of quality, with the Maldives offering a range from relatively affordable accommodations to ultra-luxurious options. The most basic are a 4-star resorts, and then the categories rise to 5-star, 6-star, and 7-star levels.
