Thoughtfully sourced and carefully served, local fish is the star of the show at Seasalt, caught and delivered daily by neighboring local fishermen.

MIRUS BAR

Named after the local Dhivehi word for “chili”, Mirus Bar serves a refreshing selection of cocktails inspired by the region’s former Portuguese and Arabic spice trade routes and concocted with ingredients from our own herb garden. Here, you can also enjoy an extensive range of Old and New World wines, including organic and biodynamic varieties. Pair your drink with Spanish tapas and local bites famous in the South Asian region.

UMAMI

Umami means “essence of deliciousness” in Japanese and is known as the fifth element of taste. It perfectly describes the variety of mouth-watering experiences that await in this relaxing open space cooled by the gentle ocean breeze.
