Surfing  

Pasta Point, the region’s most consistent break, is just a minute’s walk from your room. Other classic breaks - Sultans, Honky’s and Jailbreak – are less than ten minutes away by boat. You can see the waves from the resort, so you’ll know when they’re pumping. When conditions are favourable, try Chickens and Colas (about 45 minutes away) – boats are available all day from 6am.

Rooms and Facilities  

The resort accommodates up to 250 guests, but the number of surfers is limited to just 30. Facilities include a spa, open-air restaurants, three bars (one overlooking Pasta Point), wi-fi internet access, swimming pool, billiards, tennis court, badminton, gym, safe beach for children, and a fully certified PADI Diving School. With a white sand beach and plenty to do for non-surfing partners and children, it’s a great place to relax or to holiday with the family.

All rooms are air-conditioned and have king-sized beds, a stocked mini-bar, satellite-cable TV, telephone, tea/coffee making, closets, writing table and chairs. Additional beds can be provided for family accommodation. Four types of room are available (click the links for pictures and details)

Garden Bungalows are the most popular choice for surfers. These two-storey units have a king size bed and balcony up on a mezzanine level, and spacious sitting room with an extra bed (or day bed) downstairs, and a stylish, fully tiled bathroom.

Beach Bungalows
face the lagoon, and are beautifully finished with tropical timbers and textured walls. They feature a king-size bed and an open-air bathroom with shower and tub in a private tropical garden. There’s plenty of space for an extra bed for family holidays.

Water Bungalows are built over the water inside the reef, with views of the waves and the Pasta Point break just a short stroll away – wake up to the sound of the surf! Water Bungalows feature a spa bath and private sun deck.

Over Water Suites, above the lagoon, have a wide outdoor deck with private sun lounges and steps down to the water. The romantic bedroom features king-sized bed, en suite bathroom and personal spa bath. A separate living room features a divan/day bed, TV, and entertainment system.

The open-air Makana Restaurant serves an international buffet for breakfast, lunch and dinner. For those who like to try the local foods, and particularly enjoy a curry, the Maldivian dishes are highly recommended.

Right at the water’s edge, the Raiyvilaa Bar opens daily from 8am till late at night. It’s the place to enjoy a fancy cocktail on the open deck as the sun sets on another tropical island day.
The Raalhu Bar, overlooking the break at Pasta Point, is the ideal place to watch the action or retreat for a cool beer after a long day in the surf. It’s open from 6am till late at night

Activities  

Discover Maldivian village life on an Island-Hopping Tour, or visit the main island of Male on a Shopping-Sightseeing Trip – just book at the resort (extra charge applies).

The resort’s own dive operator conducts Scuba Diving courses and runs daily trips to some of the best dive sites in the Maldives.

The Chavana Spa offers a range of health and beauty treatments – for surfers we especially recommend the Muscle Ease massage.

If you can’t bring your own board, or you can’t face the hassle, Atoll Adventures Surfboard Hire offers a range of Surftech, Tuflite & NSP surfboards for hire at very reasonable rates.
