At Home In The Maldives
World Travel|April - May 2017

For a luxuriously cosy stay in the Maldives, there are few private villas that come close to Cheval Blanc Randheli’s Owner’s Villa located in the Noonu Atoll and managed by LVMH Hotel Management.

At Home In The Maldives

Vacationing families and groups of friends can enjoy complete privacy in this 8,000-square-meter, four-bedroom abode – one of the largest of its kind in the Maldives – ensconced on its own private island and accessible from the main resort by a five-minute ride on a dhoni, a traditional Maldivian fishing boat.

Judging from the hush-hush list of previous occupants comprising of celebrities, royalty and tycoons, many of whom are regulars, there is no lack of takers for this lavish pad. Award-winning architect Jean-Michel Gathy, who is well-known for his work on super-luxury hotels for the rich and discerning like Aman Canal Grande in Venice, Italy and Chedi Muscat in Oman, says of the Owner’s Villa: “Luxury doesn’t have to be plush, it can be totally understated. There are many ways to define luxury. Here, it’s all about space and privacy; and there’s nothing more luxurious than that.”

The stunning modernist house comes with a private gym with state-of-the-art Technogym equipment and its own spa for guests to enjoy exclusive Guerlain treatments in double rooms or on outdoor stilt terraces that can also accommodate yoga and pilates sessions. Bathroom amenities are nothing short of the best with Leonor Greyl toiletries specially tailored for Randheli.
