Lhaviyani-Atoll, Maldives Six Senses Kanuhura

A Reawakened Island Icon with One of the Maldives' Largest Beaches

Six Senses Kanuhura spans three private islands in the Lhaviyani Atoll – the main island of Kanuhura, plus the two uninhabited neighbouring islands of Jehunuhura and Masleggihuraa. The resort is known for one of the largest beaches in the Maldives, wrapping the island in an unbroken 360-degree stretch of sand, as well as for its family-friendly spirit that leaves just as much room for romance. Following an extensive renovation, Kanuhura pairs barefoot luxury with the holistic Six Senses approach – spanning wellness, sustainability and Maldivian hospitality.

Cuisine

At Six Senses Kanuhura, culinary variety unfolds across three islands. The Market serves pancakes, fresh fruit and rich coffee by day, while evenings bring international dishes from Italian to Indian alongside themed buffets. At Bottega, the scent of fresh herbs and wood-fired sourdough fills the air – the perfect spot for authentic Italian cooking, aperitivi and Mediterranean wines. At Sip & Sand, chefs grill fresh catches and local meats over charcoal and roll sushi and sashimi right before your eyes, against one of the resort's most spectacular sunset backdrops. On the private neighbouring island of Jehunuhura, Drift serves grilled reef fish or Maldivian curry right on the beach – exclusive to guests who choose to sail across for the day. At Scoop, expect handmade ice cream, while round-the-clock in-villa dining completes the offering.

Cuisine

Wellness

Six Senses Spa draws on the power of local ingredients such as coconut, mango, papaya, honey, lemon basil and mint, while the sound of oceanic drums and Koshi chimes helps reset your energy. The Biohacking Lounge uses cutting-edge techniques such as compression therapy and vibrational pain relief to overcome jet lag quickly – all in the spirit of "Dive – Hack – Gym – Repeat." Separate heat experience journeys for men and women round out the programme for deep relaxation.

Wellness
