This upcoming festive season, escape the cold and opt for an unparallelled beauty of the Maldives with a stay at Anantara Kihavah Maldives Villas. Situated in the heart of the Baa Atoll, the resort offers a sanctuary of serenity amidst crystal-clear waters and powder-soft sands.

Celebrate the season with exclusive festive dining experiences on the beach, where gourmet cuisine is paired with the soothing sounds of the waves and the tropical evening breeze.

Give in to your wanderlust and embark on an unrivalled journey this New Year. Anantara Iko Mauritius Resort & Villas lies on the sun-drenched sands of La Chaland Beach.

Follow in the wake of our trekking guide and listen to the orchestra of the forest.

If you crave days packed with adventure, we offer a choice destination from where your every moment can be easily filled with pulse-racing activities. Take to the road on a speedy quad, glide over the rainforest on a zip wire, or delve into the depths of the ocean with a scuba diving lesson.

For those in search of a calmer adventure, the time-honoured traditions of Mauritius hammam spa rituals are sure to invigorate and restore even the weariest traveller.

Where better to retreat from the day-to-day hustle and bustle than to a tropical African island paradise. Truly indulge this Christmas and allow Anantara to transport you luxuriously through the holidays with a programme which makes the best of every moment. Open your eyes and find equilibrium each morning with a festive yoga flow for balance before the lavish buffet breakfast entices you from the dining room.

As the sun beams through the window of your beach villa the crystalline hues of the ocean beckon you to join a remarkable adventure at one of the world’s premier snorkelling and diving destinations.
