What do fashion and hospitality have in common? They both are synonym of excellence, attention to details, a sense of refinement, and exceptional savoir-faire.

Cheval Blanc Randheli is the Haute Couture of hospitality, the second Maison in the LVMH Hotel Management group prides itself on its French Art of Hospitality, providing its guests with the most memorable experiences.

Nestled in the unspoiled setting of Noonu Atoll, in the Maldives archipelago, Cheval Blanc Randheli is one of the finest properties on earth.

While many resorts in the Maldives are on a private island, Cheval Blanc is on six private islands, setting the tone for the extravagant experiences the resort has to offer.

From an arrival in style aboard the custom made Cheval Blanc private seaplane, to each of the 46 villas having a 12.5 meter pool, to exploring the picturesque and UNESCO-protected Hanifaru Bay, Cheval Blanc really takes it to the next level.

Cheval Blanc Randheli Private Island

The epitome of luxury, Cheval Blanc Randheli Private Island offers an exclusive retreat. Accessible by a dedicated jetty, the private island —at the centre of the crystalline Randheli lagoon — is entirely devoted to this villa just a few minutes from the main island.

With four bedrooms, three large adjoining lounges — including a piano lounge — a projection room, two majestic dining rooms, a private spa and fitness room on stilts, and a 25-meter infinity pool, the villa makes a perfect private refuge.

Fine art is also central to the Private Island experience, through the work of Lang and Baumann, recalling the waves in the colours of Randheli.

Culinary Arts

The culinary arts reign at Cheval Blanc Randheli, with lively, surprising and deliciously varied experiences at five restaurants and four bars, as well as personalised catering to guests’ villa or around the resort, under the label “Carte Blanche”.

Le 1947Le 1947 Bar

For a top-notch fine dining experience, head to the Cheval Blanc signature gourmet restaurant, Le 1947, owing its name to the most prestigious vintage of Château Cheval Blanc, and offering a memorable 12-course tasting menu. Adjoining the restaurant, Le 1947 Bar with its grand piano features a wine cellar stocked with the most exceptional vintages.

Dedication to Wellness

When it comes to relaxation, Cheval Blanc Randheli takes the experience to another level, with an island entirely dedicated to wellness.

The spa offers a wide range of treatments by Guerlain, including two created especially for Cheval Blanc Randheli — the Sun Ritual and the After Diving Experience.

Starting the journey aboard a traditional dhoni, guests arrive at Spa Cheval Blanc Island, where six treatment villas overlook the translucent waters of the lagoon.

Unparalleled Service

What makes the resort so exceptional is also its unparalleled service. Specialists known as Alchemists imagine and create personalised experiences for the guests with unmatched attention to detail, providing magical memories for all.

In each villa, a dedicated Majordome is available around the clock to ensure that guests’ wishes are fulfilled.

Guided by the Alchemists of Cheval Blanc, guests can enhance their stay by choosing an experience created especially for them, from a luxury cruise onboard the superb Azimut 30m yacht, to a picnic on a desert island, swimming with the turtles or getting married at one of the world’s most iconic locations.
