MALDIVIAN HERITAGE

Anantara Kihavah Maldives Villas has unveiled its newly refurbished two-, three- and four-bedroom beach pool residences. The redesign is by SODA, an award-winning architectural and interior design firm. A light neutral palette uplifts the previous dark wood interiors, creating a comfortable atmosphere. Rattan details, woven straws carpets, Maldivian motifs and teak wood furniture add a tropical vibe to each room. Kajan thatched palm rooms and Balau hardwood decks stay true to the Maldivian heritage. Water feature walls mimic real waterfalls in the bathrooms. Each residence features its own private spa room and gym. Newly extended swimming pools are fitted with massage jets, as shifting hues of green and blue mirror the Indian Ocean. anantara.com
