My Review of Anantara Kihavah Over Water Villas and What I Love about the resort
The Island Dream : Round, full of vegetation and surrounded by an amazing house-reef.
The Resort is the latest Luxury property of the Company Anantara Hotels & Resorts in Maldives. Anantara Kihavah was created in the perfect tradition of its older sister Islands, Anantara Dhigu and Naladhu Maldives : always elegant, luxurious, intimate and beautifully conceived.

There are 40 Over Water Pool Villas and 2 Two-bedroom Over Water Pool Residences. We stayed in a Beach Villa ( we had our son who was very young at the time so he could not stay in a water villa but we had plenty of hours to photograph Anantara Kihavah Water Villas.
Anantara Kihavah is a hotspot for celebrities like Ronaldo Luiz Suarez and Roger Federer who love the Resort.
