A Fresh Chapter in Maldivian Hospitality: NH Collection Maldives Reethi Resort Set to Debut After Major Renovations

Minor Hotels announces the reopening of NH Collection Maldives Reethi Resort on 18 December 2025, offering guests a seamless blend of Maldivian tradition and contemporary comfort within one of the most prized atolls. Formerly known as Reethi Beach Resort, the island is in the final stages of its six-month renovation and transformation of the storied island retreat into NH Collection Maldives Reethi Resort, revitalising the resort’s villas, dining outlets and leisure facilities while preserving the lush island’s natural beauty.

NH Collection Maldives Reethi Resort sits within the Baa Atoll, a protected UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, accessible by a 35-minute seaplane flight from Velana International Airport. Hanifaru Bay, renowned for manta rays, whale sharks and turtles, is less than 20 minutes away.

NH Collection Reethi offers 105 beach and overwater villas, thoughtfully crafted to blend traditional Maldivian charm and modern comfort. Guests selecting the resort’s Beach Villas can expect stays in harmony with nature, waking up to stunning ocean views and direct beach access steps away from their villa. Newly added to the resort’s offering are sixteen villas with pools, giving guests the option of a private plunge pool at their doorstep. On the north side of the island are NH Collection Reethi’s Overwater Villas. Perched above the turquoise lagoon, the villas provide uninterrupted panoramic vistas from their private decks, perfect for soaking up the sun during the day or enjoying pristine stargazing at night.

The resort features a curated selection of food and beverage outlets, with each of the seven venues having its own unique identity. Guests are spoiled for choice at NH Collection Reethi’s three restaurants, including Alifaan, the beachfront grill, where wood flames take centre stage; Kaiyo, an overwater restaurant celebrating the harmony of sea, sky, and Asian culinary artistry; and Jumla, an all-day dining restaurant serving global flavours and island freshness. For light bites and tropical drinks by the resort’s pools, guests can swing by Madumaithri at the new beachfront infinity pool or find healthy, family-friendly fare at Aqua Bar next to the main pool. Day slips into night at Atardecer, the sunset beach bar, accompanied by tapas, cocktails, DJ sets and timeless entertainment. A hidden gem on the island is Handhuvaru, a rum bar nestled into the landscape and the home of quiet sophistication. Guests seeking exclusive dining experiences can head to the resort’s wine cellar for Fine Dining, where they will embark on refined culinary journeys, or opt for the resort’s Adrift private dining experience, featuring the resort’s extraordinary al fresco settings.

NH Collection Reethi takes full advantage of the destination’s natural beauty to offer vibrant new experiences on land and at sea. Guests can enjoy snorkelling at the island’s house reef, home to a multitude of fish species or opt for an excursion to Hanifaru Bay for diving with mantas, sting rays and whale sharks. The resort offers a variety of water sports for its active guests, including jet skiing, wakeboarding, flyboarding, kayaking, windsurfing, hydrobiking, and stand-up paddleboarding. On land, the reimagined REVIVE spa is the destination for holistic wellness inspired by nature. In between, guests can opt to lounge by the beachfront or the main pool, or stay active at the Activity Centre, which is equipped with a fitness centre, games room, Kids’ Club, and courts for tennis, badminton, volleyball, and pickleball.
