Overview

A large five-star island in Raa Atoll with 190 villas in Maldivian style, from garden villas to pool water villas, three restaurants and a spa village.

Brennia Kottefaru is a big resort on Kottefaru in Raa Atoll, 40 to 45 minutes from Malé by seaplane, or a short domestic flight to Ifuru and a speedboat. Its 190 villas, on the beach and over the water, are built in a traditional Maldivian style, and the island has an outdoor pool, a fitness centre, a spa village with 18 treatment rooms, a dive centre, water sports and dolphin cruises. There's no house reef off the beach, so snorkelling and diving are by boat.

The ten Bougain Villas (79 m²) are tucked under the trees for two. Beach Villas (143 m²) open onto the sand, Beach Pool Villas (159 m²) add a pool facing the sunset, and the Deluxe Beach Pool Villas are larger again. Over the water, the Water Villas (111 m²) have steps into the sea and the Ocean Pool Villas (130 m²) a pool overlooking the ocean. The Two Bedroom Beach Pool Residences (370 m²) have their own living room and sleep up to six.

Lime is the all-day buffet restaurant, with themed nights, a cheese bar and an ice cream station. Manta serves Asian fusion food by the beach, booked a day ahead, and Sunset Grill & Bar has a globally inspired dinner menu. La Pella, by the pool and the shore, is the main bar, with high tea in the afternoon, and a beach bar in a traditional hut on the east side catches the sunrise.

Good to know

This profile comes from travel agencies; Brennia's own website doesn't publish rates. The agencies give quite different villa sizes (the figures here are Purely Maldives'), there's no house reef off the beach, and the price is only maldives.com's 'starting from' range, so treat it as a rough guide.
