Overview
Soneva Fushi is a little off the beaten track, the adventure begins with a thirty-minute seaplane journey from Male'.
Just sixty-five residences on an island surrounded by a coral lagoon. A community offering ‘Intelligent Luxury’ in which guests can do a host of activities, or nothing at all. Furnishings that reflect the rustic theme of a designer tropical escape. Dining diversities that range from simple barbecues to gourmet feasts - and an amazing wine cellar. Ramble through nature with discovery excursions on the resort island and neighboring island villages. And all the while, soft white sand underfoot. Then there is the wonderful Six Senses Spa, offering a menu of rejuvenating, pampering and holistic wellness treatments to calm mind and body.
Excellent diving opportunities are supported by a professional dive school. A superb eco-journey for families and couples, who often return each year to share memories with people who enjoy the same values. Stay for a week or stay for two, and prepare to be spoiled.
Soneva Fushi, the first "Robinson Crusoe" style hideaway in the Maldives, is set on the privately owned, uninhibited, tropical paradise island of Kunfunadhoo. Soneva Fushi is situated in the Baa Atoll, north of Male' Atoll. There are 19 atolls that stretch over 800 kilometres made up of the 1,190 islands which are the Maldives.
The island is accessible by a scenic 25 minute float plane flight from Male', the capital of the Republic of Maldives.
Kunfunadhoo is 1,400 metres long and almost 400 metres wide, is one of the largest islands in the Maldives. Apart from the crystal clear waters, for which the Maldives is world-renowned, the island's unusually rich vegetation provides a unique natural experience. Villas and rooms are scattered along the beach and tucked into the lush greenery, providing the ultimate in privacy.
Dining
Dining options at Soneva Fushi are designed to make your stay on Kunfunadhoo diverse, exciting and slightly adventurous. Our Chef and his multi-national brigade of chef's work to produce a combination of dishes that allow the East to meet the West in culinary terms.
Every effort is made to find ingredients of the highest quality and have them delivered to the island and send as pure and fresh as they might have been served at their origin. With this philosophy in mind our menus benefit from the abundance of fresh fish at the Maldives.
To compliment the dining options, we offer a wine list with an international content that covers many recognised and some unrecognised, wine producing countries in both hemispheres. This mixture of new world wines and good French classics offers you the opportunity to fulfill the dining experience despite both cultural and climate challenges.
Main Restaurant A la Carte Dinner comprises of a different menu each night. The daily dinner menu can be previewed daily after 1100 hours at our guest relations champa or at the main bar
Me Dhuniye Restaurant Lunch Choose from our Fusion Cuisine Snacks menu or the Asian Noodle Soup Buffet Station. Dinner New world Asian cuisine at its best. Perfect blends of eastern and western food are presented with a permanent a la carte menu. There is a daily changing 5-course Degustation menu available.
Mihiree Mitha Lunch Through experience we have developed an idea of a light lunch of extremely high standard, which is served by the beach in front of the main bar. This makes full use of a sea breeze and the magnificent sea view.
The style is "self-service" to enhance the relaxed nature of this meal experience, giving guests the opportunity to set their own pace and try a little of everything. The concept is an international deli experience with a variety of Pizzas, sashimi, sushi, salads, pasta and barbeque cooked to order and Ice cream parlor.
Organic Garden Restaurant This dining experience sits four metres, or more than thirteen feet, above the organic garden and affords views across the jungle canopy, from every angle. Arrival is through the garden, interspersed with vegetable patches, plus herbs and spice plots. A stairway leads up to a suspended rope and plank bridge, across which guests access the vast timber construction, which is the restaurant.
The main restaurant platform measures 200 square metres, or more than 2,000 square feet, plus an 85 square metre, or 900 square feet, terrace. In the centre of the main platform is a sunken kitchen and dispense bar, completely open to the restaurant on all four sides.
The menu changes daily, and features the freshest produce imaginable, with a focus on fruit, vegetables and fish, plus some organic meats. A desert menu is enhanced with a selection of Soneva's own home made ice creams and sorbets. The wine list features a selection of wines, which are also available by the glass.
Jetty Champagne Bar The Champagne Bar is an all day choice for guests desiring easy access to the underwater world of Soneva Fushi, with its myriad of colourful lagoon inhabitants. Underwater enthusiasts can hone their scuba diving prowess without committing to the big dive, while snorkeling is equally rewarding. Lazing away some idyll moments on a sun lounge beneath large umbrellas may also be the pastime of choice. It is an ideal place from which to enjoy glorious sunsets whilst planning for your dining experience for the evening. A simple menu and wonderfully refreshing tropical juice drinks, together with the bar host's specialties are available throughout the day. Champagne is suggested at sunset.
The Wine Cellar Soneva Fushi boasts a high quality climate controlled wine cellar with a selection of the best - not commercially available - wines from around the world.
