The 6 Reasons Why Coco Bodu Hithi is a Gourmet Paradise

Find a culinary paradise at the Coco Bodu Hithi. With 8 restaurants and bars, there’s something different for you to discover every night. But if you simply can’t leave the sanctuary of your villa, you can select from an In-villa menu with a wide range of food and drinks from the Restaurants, including dishes perfect for little ones.

Air

At your favourite poolside restaurant, fresh ingredients from land and sea are skillfully crafted to create a menu of international dishes. Start your day with a spectacular buffet of breakfasts from around the world, featuring everything from fresh tropical fruit platters to Chinese fish congee. At lunch, enjoy an À la carte menu of vibrant European salads, Maldivian specialities, prime cuts charred to perfection on the grill, and mouth-watering desserts, while the themed dinner buffets celebrate iconic cuisines around the world.

Aqua

Discover the chefs showcase the fragrant delicacy of Thai and South-East Asian flavours, in a seasonal menu focused on the day’s local seafood catch. Open for dinner only, it has a distinctively romantic feel. Sitting over the water, it offers spectacular views as well as sensational food and service. Voted ‘Best luxury seafood restaurant in the Maldives’ in the World Luxury Restaurant Awards, Aqua’s blend of luxury and thoughtfulness earns the accolades it receives.

Latitude

The perfect place to watch golden hues fade into inky blues. Try a martini flavoured with cardamom and pineapple or one laced with strawberry and basil. Whether mixing, brewing or blending, the bartenders are some of the finest, and most welcoming, in the Maldives. Latitude features a wide range of meals, from stone-baked pizzas and Asian classics to wraps and sandwiches, all lovingly prepared for a relaxed lunch or energy boost after a hard day’s snorkelling or lounging in the sun. On select evenings, live bands play as the sun sets over Bodu Hithi.

Stars

Looking for a bar? Or a restaurant? This place is both. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner at the Star feature an inspired fusion of Mediterranean and contemporary Asian flavours. All meals are offered À la carte, although six-course degustation menus with perfect wine pairings are available to those who like to put control in the chef’s hands. Find a full menu of tantalizing cocktails, mocktails, tea quenchers, coffees, wines, and spirits. Facing west, Stars is where to be as the sun says its nightly goodbye.

Tsuki

Where the precision of Japanese cuisine meets the relaxed ambience of island life. At Tsuki, every plate takes up this mantle and celebrates the seafood, rice, soy and vegetable bounty of nature. Refined yet unpretentious, graceful yet satisfying and inherently healthy, the chefs prepare Japanese soups, salads, tempura, sashimi, sushi, hot dishes and desserts. Located in an elevated position above Latitude, guests can choose to dine outside on the terrace in the soft evening breeze or sit at the sushi bar and watch the theatre of the chefs preparing their masterful dishes.

Wine Loft

A wine lover’s heaven. With a selection of more than 200 diverse global wines, including a selection of organic and biodynamic labels, the beginner, enthusiast and connoisseur are all welcome. There are weekly wine sampling dinners at the Maldives Wine Loft to demonstrate the delectation of a happy marriage between wine and food. The food is delicate enough to allow the wine to sing, yet generous enough to satiate.
