Location

The Alila Kothaifaru Maldives is located on a lush, approximately 11.2-hectare private island nestled in the idyllic Raa Atoll. Its position on the western edge of the atoll gives the resort a particularly quiet and exclusive atmosphere. Guests can look forward to a nearly pristine natural landscape featuring powdery white sand beaches, turquoise water, and tropical vegetation. The Raa Atoll is renowned for its impressive underwater world. Surrounding the island are numerous first-class diving and snorkeling spots with colorful coral formations, vibrant reefs, and a fascinating variety of marine life. Additionally, there is a house reef located directly off the coast, easily accessible from the beach, which offers ideal conditions for spontaneous snorkeling sessions. Transfer is by seaplane (approx. 45 minutes).
