WINE & DINE

A true island escape experience, The Shack is our own private sand cay (giri). Two distinct trips to The Shack are available daily – a 4-hour day trip including a picnic-style lunch, and a 4-hour evening trip with a private chef to cook up a sunset BBQ.
Yakitori Bar
Yakitori Bar is the place to be to indulge in sundowners, including Asian-inspired creative cocktails and mocktails crafted by our team of mixologists alongside fine Japanese sakes and spirits. Delicious smoky aromas from the robata grill permeate the bar and work to whet your appetite.
Pibati
Pibati means “to drink, absorb, imbibe” in Sanskrit. This chilled beachside café satisfies your daytime cravings with comfort food ranging from pressed sandwiches to hand-pulled Roma-style pizzettes, organic salads, cakes and pastries, gelato and more, along with freshly brewed barista coffees, forest-friendly teas, juices and wellness concoctions.
Mirus Bar
Named after the local Dhivehi word for “chili”, Mirus Bar serves a refreshing selection of cocktails inspired by the region’s former Portuguese and Arabic spice trade routes and concocted with ingredients from our own herb garden. Here, you can also enjoy an extensive range of Old and New World wines, including organic and biodynamic varieties. Pair your drink with Spanish tapas and local bites famous in the South Asian region.
Umami
Umami means “essence of deliciousness” in Japanese and is known as the fifth element of taste. It perfectly describes the variety of mouth-watering experiences that await in this relaxing open space cooled by the gentle ocean breeze.

Japanese-inspired menus carefully prepared in our teppanyaki theatre offer a premium selection of organically grown vegetables, Wagyu beef and sustainably sourced fish and seafood.

In our main dining room or beachside, enjoy a wide range of traditional and modern a la carte Japanese dishes, including fresh-caught fish grilled over charcoal embers and served with delicate signature sauces, as well as sushi and sashimi featuring Maldivian seafood.
Seasalt
Thoughtfully sourced and carefully served, local fish is the star of the show at Seasalt, caught and delivered daily by neighbouring local fishermen. Enjoy the fresh taste of the sea in coastal cuisine that blends Middle Eastern and Mediterranean influences and traditions in dishes that burst with ancient flavours, spices and colours.

Breakfast includes a daily rotation of local and international favourites alongside fresh-baked breads. Lunch includes light and sharing-style dishes complemented by daily specials, while Seasalt’s signature salt-baked fish dishes are a highlight at dinner.
