Anantara Kihavah sits in Baa Atoll (see our Baa Atoll guide), alongside Soneva Fushi and Four Seasons Landaa Giraavaru as one of the biosphere reserve's better-known resorts, with its own distinct set of signature features.
What it's known for
The resort is particularly associated with an overwater astronomical observatory used for stargazing sessions, and a wine cellar built below the waterline — two features that lean into novelty and setting as much as standard resort amenities. Villas across both beach and overwater categories typically include private pools.
Location advantage
Being in Baa Atoll puts the resort within reach of Hanifaru Bay's seasonal manta feeding events — see our whale sharks & manta rays guide.
