Location: Noonu Atoll is a 40-minute seaplane ride from Malé airport, ringed by coral reefs and home to native plants and wildlife.
Service: The Randheli prides itself on delivering French "Art de Recevoir" – the "art of hospitality."
History: The Randheli has an impressive pedigree – it's a Louis Vuitton Moet Hennessy resort designed by architect Jean-Michel Gathy.
Cheval Blanc Randheli is luxurious new property in the Maldives' Noonu Atoll, inhabiting a handful of islands surrounded by teeming reefs. It's still new, having opened in November 2013 and is top of its class; a Louis Vuitton Moet Hennessy property, only the second of its kind. The Randheli is around 40 minutes away from Male airport by seaplane, with a luxurious lounge at the airport so guests can make their transfer in comfort. The design and décor of The Randheli conveys relaxed island living in its light, natural palette and thatched roofs, yet a refined, contemporary edge shines through in its all modern interiors, up-to-the-minute technology and cathedral-style loft ceilings.
