NH Collection Maldives Reethi Resort has reopened its doors in December 2025 following a six-month transformation, introducing 16 new pool villas, a beachfront infinity pool and upgraded dining venues and facilities that mark a new chapter for the renowned island retreat, formerly known as Reethi Beach Resort.
Nestled within the Unesco Biosphere Reserve of Baa Atoll, the lush private island is home to rich flora and fauna and is reachable via a 35-minute seaplane flight from Velana International Airport.
The reimagined resort now features 105 beach and overwater villas, with refreshed interiors showcasing a soothing palette of sand, coral, and ocean hues, alongside natural materials, including locally sourced wood, woven rattan, and stone accents, to create serene, light-filled spaces.
Guests staying in the Beach Villas can enjoy direct access to the shoreline and panoramic ocean views, with select villas offering open-air bathrooms, rain showers, and spacious sun decks. The new pool villas provide a touch of added indulgence, each with a private plunge pool and dedicated butler service. Meanwhile, the overwater villas promise uninterrupted lagoon vistas from their expansive private decks.
The resort’s refreshed facilities include a new adults-only infinity pool and a rejuvenated spa offering wellbeing experiences inspired by nature. The updated Activity Centre now features a state-of-the-art gym, games room and a kids’ club complete with splash pool and supervised activities. Outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy tennis, badminton, volleyball and pickleball courts.

Dining at NH Collection Maldives Reethi Resort spans seven restaurants and bars, including Alifaan, a beachfront grill combining flame-grilled meats and fresh local seafood, and Kaiyo, an overwater restaurant serving Asian dishes, from satay to sushi. The all-day dining venue, Jumla, offers live cooking stations and themed dinner nights.
For casual bites and tropical drinks, guests can relax at Madumaithri beside the new pool or at Aqua Bar by the main pool, serving healthy, family-friendly fare. At sunset, Atardecer serves tapas and cocktails accompanied by live DJ sets and fire performances, while Handhuvaru Bar, shaded by coconut trees, offers a more intimate setting for rum tastings guided by the resort’s resident connoisseur.
For an exclusive dining experience, the resort’s wine cellar offers intimate gourmet dinners with curated wine pairings, while the Adrift private dining concept offers bespoke menus in outdoor locations around the island.
Immersive island experiences remain at the heart of the resort’s appeal. Guests can snorkel the vibrant house reef by day or embark on an illuminated night snorkelling adventure with UV lights. Water sports enthusiasts can choose from jet skiing, wakeboarding, kayaking, windsurfing, hydrobiking, and stand-up paddleboarding. Excursions are also available to nearby Hanifaru Bay, a renowned marine hotspot known for manta rays, whale sharks and sea turtles.
