GENERAL INFORMATION |
|
Welcome to Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Landaa Giraavaru. A scenic sea-plane ride from Malé Airport, this verdant, beach-fringed coral island embraces both idyllic, away-from-it-all retreat and sophisticated pleasures on land and water – from genuine ayurvedic healing in the spa to splashing, sailing or diving in the jewel-like Indian Ocean and Maldives’ most pristine lagoon.
Enhance your resort stay with a cruise on the Four Seasons Explorer, a private three-deck, 11-cabin catamaran that takes guests island-hopping, stargazing and diving in Four Seasons style. Our Maldivian resort at Kudaa Huura also makes an exciting complement to your experience on Landaa Giravaaru and your Four Seasons Explorer cruise.

Dining
Cafe Landaa
Overlooking the swimming pool and beach, the three thatch-roofed pavilions of Café Landaa appear to float above the sapphire waters on the north shore of Landaa Giraavaru. For breakfast, lunch and dinner, our chefs create exquisite delights with eastern and western influences. The restaurant seats 82 indoors, 8 at the sushi counter, 8 at the teppanyaki counter and 50 outdoors.
Al Barakat
Named after Abu Al Barakat Yusuf Al Barbari, a North African scholar who made Baa Atoll his home in the 12th century, Al Barakat serves authentic Arabian cuisine. The restaurant is built over water, off the main jetty. A Shisha Bar is located on the ground level. The main dining area on the rooftop features comfortable low seating. Seats 40 indoors, 74 outdoors and 44 at the bar.
Blu
Located at the western end of the island overlooking a 2-kilometre (1.2-mile) lagoon, "Blu" embraces the essence of the Maldives as the place where the ocean meets the sky. From the restaurant pavilion on one side or the Sunset Bar pavilion on the other, you can watch the sun sink below the horizon.
The restaurant serves à la carte breakfast, light antipasti, pizza and pasta at lunch and fine Italian cuisine in the evening. Seats 40 indoors, 42 at the bar and 12 on the beach.
The Barbecue
Located next to the seawater pool overlooking Kudarikilu Kandu (the channel), The Barbecue offers fresh catch of the day as well as a wide selection of meats, salads and side dishes. Opens for lunch and dinner; seats 32 outdoors.
Lounges
Five Degrees North
The Resort's main bar, named for the island's location five degrees north of the equator, commands views of the entire island. Its nautically inspired décor features a dhoni (traditional boat) as the counter, with a library, pool table and selection of board games for entertainment. Maldivian sae bon (afternoon tea) is served, and the bar has an extensive drinks selection. Seats 56 indoors, 24 on the terrace.
Sunset Bar
In the casual sand-floor setting of Sunset Bar, enjoy exotic juices, tropical cocktails or a refreshing young coconut. As the sun sets, an aperitif or glass of sparkling Prosecco is the perfect prelude to an Italian dinner next door at "Blu". Seats 50.
Spa
Landaa Spa
The Landaa Spa is a resort in itself, providing a comprehensive approach to physical, spiritual and mental well-being, with a special emphasis on yoga and ayurveda. Secluded open-air treatment areas make the lush tropical setting an integral part of the relaxation and treatment process.
The Spa Complex
Located in the heart of the island and stretching down to sea, the spa complex occupies an elevated 1-hectare (2.5-acre) site, with 10 individual thatched treatment pavilions – four over water, three in a lush garden setting and three in the Ayurvedic Retreat. Each pavilion has its own private relaxation area, plunge pool, steam and outdoor showers. Numerous pathways throughout the beautiful surrounding gardens allow for leisurely walks pre- and post-treatment. The spa also incorporates a beauty salon, juice bar, beachfront resting pavilion and retail area.
Yoga
Yoga at the Resort is a magical experience. Our resident yogi guides beginners and experienced followers through inspiring morning meditation and evening enlightenment sessions from a pavilion that "floats" on the sea. Private sessions are available and the yogi welcomes all guests for discussions on this ancient spiritual practice.
Fitness Facilities
The Health Club at Landaa Giraavaru is a unique mind-and-body experience designed to provide physical challenges and mental relaxation. Maintain your regimen in a state-of-the-art fitness facility featuring floor-to-ceiling windows, full-length mirrors, surround-sound audio system and advanced fitness equipment with individual flat screen televisions. The rustic Maldivian charm of the setting magically stimulates and helps you unwind, resulting in an ultimate wellness experience.
Pool
Laze by your choice of three swimming pools at the Resort. The spectacular 50-metre (164-foot) main pool cantilevers over the lagoon on the north shore of the island, providing a view of unsurpassed natural beauty. Unwind with a drink from the swim-up bar, lounge on the sundeck or in your private gazebo or enjoy a game of chess at the oversized chessboard.
Kids will love the free-flow children's pool adjacent to the main pool. A guardian must accompany them if they are under five years of age.
Tennis
Take a break from aquatic activities to practise your tennis skills or take lessons from our on-site tennis pro. The Resort's outdoor tennis court is lit for night play, and complimentary tennis racquets and balls are available.

The 39-metre (128-foot) catamaran features spacious State Rooms and a beautifully appointed Explorer Suite, two sun decks with a jetted tub on the second deck, a restaurant with indoor and outdoor dining, a bar, lounge and library.
