Overview

A premium all-inclusive in Raa Atoll with seven restaurants and five bars, many of them over the water, and butler service in every villa.

Heritance Aarah is a premium all-inclusive resort in Raa Atoll, 40 minutes from the airport by seaplane. Every villa comes with butler service and snorkelling gear, and the resort lists awards for families and for all-inclusive stays.

Beach Villas (88 m²) have verandas onto the sand, and Ocean Villas (93 m²) stand over the water with glass-bottom floors. Sunset Pool Beach Villas add a private pool, two-bedroom Family Pool Beach Villas have interconnecting rooms and a plunge pool, and the Ocean Suites, in an adults-only zone, have infinity pools and their own wine cellars. The single Ocean Residence is a two-bedroom villa with an infinity lap pool.

There are seven restaurants and five bars. Ranba is the main buffet; Ambula serves Sri Lankan and Maldivian food, Baani contemporary fusion, Ralu Mediterranean and French dishes, and Hathaa Tokyo and Bangkok street food, all over the water. Ginifati does private pod dining and the Pizza Shack casual meals. Among the bars are Udaras by the overwater infinity pool, Sky Bar above Ambula, Falhu for whisky and Ralu Lounge Bar for rum. The IASO Spa has six treatment rooms over the lagoon, and there's diving, kite-surfing, windsurfing, padel, the Kokaa Kids Club and an ice-cream bus.

Good to know

The best rate is a direct-booking offer; the regular rate is far higher because it bundles return transfers. The Ocean Suites are in an adults-only zone.
