Dhoni Island

An expanse of the whitest coral sand, which turns a coral pink shade at sunset. This is often the best time to relax in the privacy of a traditionally thatched Maldivian resting place overlooking your beach. Laze on one of the traditional ‘Undholi’, carved wooden swing beds, used for centuries by Maldivian families. One very unique thing about Dhoni Island is that the whole island can be booked exclusively for a company or family function - up to 24 guests.

There are only six luxuriously appointed, fully air-conditioned Dhonis, each partnered with its own intimate Beach Bungalow with an outdoor bathroom and waterfall showers. These 65 ft traditionally handcrafted Maldivian sailboats are the epitome of simplistic elegance. The Dhonis have both the traditional ivory sail and motor. Sail or cruise, the choice is yours. The bow of the Dhoni is inviting with its large, soft daybed to laze in the Maldivian sunshine. At night your Thakuru will transform the deck into a sensual setting for dining under the stars. An inviting king size bed with Frette linen and goose-down duvet graces the beautifully decorated cabins. They also boast SMEG kitchen appliances, Philippe Starck bathroom fittings, a sunbathing deck and silk cushions in an array of natural tones. In-cabin entertainment includes a 20” LCD screen with Bose DVD Surround Sound Theatre.

The choice is yours. The Chef can suggest a menu specially designed using the freshest of fresh ingredients or can personalize a menu to excite your palate. Find a secluded part of the beach and select your menu… dine on your Dhoni… in the restaurant... or on a private sand bank, any time of the day or night. This is your island getaway and you choose how to enjoy your time here. The bar is open 24 hours for guests to help themselves to a fine selection of champagne, wine, spirits and imported beers that have been meticulously selected by the Master of Wine. There is always a host on hand to mix the perfect margarita. An extensive reserve wine list is also available.

The core of Sen Spa’s philosophy is to bathe each guest in the pureness of nature. Be guided by your internationally trained therapist to select treatments to satisfy your body, mind and soul. Choose from the inner enclave of the spa which is exclusively yours whilst having your treatment or move closer to nature and venture out to the open-air treatment area where the sounds of the waves and the fresh salt air will soon lull you into a sense of calm and tranquility.

Dhoni Island is in the Ari Atoll of the Maldives, to the southwest of the capital, Male. Your Maldives experience can begin with a breathtakingly gorgeous journey to Dhoni Island on a 30-minute seaplane flight over the necklace of atolls glistening in the Indian Ocean. Or, of course, the most decadent way to arrive would be aboard your own private Dhoni where you can revel in sunshine and the sensation of the sea gently spraying against your skin to get you straight into the holiday mode that you have been longing for.
