Nestled within the pristine Lhaviyani Atoll in the Maldives, Kudadoo Maldives Private Island offers a rare and exquisite escape from the ordinary. This exclusive overwater resort redefines the essence of luxury travel by delivering a bold promise: anything, anytime, anywhere. With its fully-inclusive philosophy and unwavering focus on personal freedom, Kudadoo invites its guests to reconnect with themselves, with nature, and with the purest pleasures of life - all within the comfort of an environmentally conscious, meticulously designed retreat.
Designed by acclaimed Japanese architect Yuji Yamazaki, Kudadoo embodies an architectural vision that places natural light, air, and sustainability at its core. The entire island is solar powered, featuring a unique roof structure covered in unobtrusive solar panels that provide all of the resort's energy needs. This commitment to environmentally responsible luxury extends to every detail—from the use of sustainably sourced wood to the careful elimination of plastic wherever possible. The resort's design is not only about aesthetics but about purpose and intention, seamlessly merging style with ecological mindfulness.
This sanctuary measures just 200 meters by 200 meters, yet feels boundless thanks to its sweeping views of the Indian Ocean, open-plan architecture, and the sheer sense of privacy it offers. Guests can reach Kudadoo via a scenic 40-minute seaplane journey or a combination of domestic flight and speedboat, all coordinated with utmost attention by Kudadoo's dedicated airport team.
Kudadoo is home to only 15 Ocean Residences—13 of them one-bedroom and 2 two-bedroom options—each positioned above the crystal-clear waters of the lagoon. The one-bedroom residences span a generous 310 square meters, while the two-bedroom options reach 390 square meters, including private infinity plunge pools, expansive overwater decks, and uninterrupted sea views.
Inside, the residences are adorned with Tasmanian oak floors, handmade furniture, and calming earth tones that blend beautifully with the surrounding environment. High-end amenities include Bang & Olufsen surround sound systems, 54-inch IPTV screens with Netflix, and a smart lighting system. Every residence also features a large bathroom with a tub, double vanity, and a spacious shower, plus a cozy indoor lounge area. Each guest is attended to by a personal butler, available 24/7, who curates every aspect of the stay—from bespoke culinary experiences to tailored sea excursions.
The social and wellness epicenter of the island is The Retreat—a stunning two-story overwater structure that captures the spirit of relaxation and effortless living. Within The Retreat, guests find an air-conditioned fine dining restaurant, a 24-hour bar with breathtaking sunset views, a lounge, games room, and conference space. The building also houses the acclaimed Sulha Spa and a spectacular infinity pool with a sun-drenched deck.
Every corner of The Retreat has been created to inspire tranquility. Whether sipping Champagne under the stars, attending a yoga session at sunrise, or meditating in the Himalayan salt chamber—the first of its kind in the Maldives—guests are encouraged to pause, breathe, and embrace the freedom of time reimagined.
Kudadoo's Sulha Spa offers an unlimited spa journey designed to heal, restore, and transform. Guests are invited to indulge in a range of treatments, all included in the stay, and designed with the philosophy that wellness is not a luxury but an integral part of everyday life.
Using organic, ocean-inspired products by Healing Earth, the spa experience includes a Himalayan salt room, steam room, sauna, and treatment suites with sweeping views of the horizon. A fully equipped gym and private fitness area round out the wellness offering, where guests can enjoy personal training, guided meditation, or one-on-one yoga sessions at any time.
Dining at Kudadoo is an experience without limits. There are no set menus—only inspiration. Chefs create each meal based on the guest's tastes, preferences, and moods, whether it's a romantic beachside dinner, an alfresco breakfast on the deck, or a spontaneous midnight snack.
The wine cellar, curated by the in-house sommelier, features an impressive selection of global wines, while the adjacent cheese room offers gourmet pairings. For those who wish to take their culinary journey even further, Kudadoo offers access to the 5.8 Undersea Restaurant on nearby Hurawalhi Island—the world's largest all-glass undersea restaurant, located 5.8 meters beneath the sea.
Kudadoo's inclusive experience goes far beyond the walls of the villas and The Retreat. Adventure here is truly effortless and personalized. Guests can snorkel directly from their residence, paddleboard at sunrise, or take an underwater scooter through coral gardens teeming with life. For the daring, bioluminescent night snorkeling offers a surreal experience under the stars.
The resort partners with marine conservation organizations such as Manta Trust and the Olive Ridley Project, providing the opportunity to explore Lhaviyani Atoll alongside expert marine biologists. Encounters with manta rays, hawksbill turtles, and spinner dolphins are all part of the Kudadoo experience.
Those seeking solitude can escape to Dream Island, a private sandbank surrounded by turquoise waters—perfect for a gourmet picnic, a kite-surfing session, or simply basking in the sun. Deep-sea fishing, jet skiing, parasailing, wakeboarding, and catamaran sailing are all included, as are guided diving excursions led by experienced dive professionals aboard the resort's luxury dive dhoni.
Kudadoo is not just a playground for the body and senses; it's also a haven for mindful travelers. From curated reading corners to island shopping with handpicked artwork and designer fashion, every detail encourages a deeper connection with oneself and the world.
Those wishing to mark a special occasion—be it a wedding, vow renewal, or corporate retreat—can also reserve the entire island. Kudadoo offers exclusive buyouts, turning the private island into a fully personalized venue for any celebration.
Kudadoo does not compromise when it comes to sustainability. Its solar-powered infrastructure, use of eco-conscious materials, and strong environmental partnerships place it among the leading eco-luxury resorts in the world. Every element has been designed to reduce impact, from refillable amenities to glass bottled water and reusable straws.
The result is not only a luxurious experience, but a meaningful one—travel that leaves a positive footprint and contributes to the preservation of the very paradise it celebrates.
