An adults-only, all-inclusive island in Raa Atoll with 99 overwater villas and H2O, an underwater restaurant by the Michelin-starred chef Andrea Berton.
You & Me, on Uthurumaafaru in Raa Atoll, is the adults-only resort of the Cocoon Collection, the group behind Cocoon Maldives. Guests must be 16 or over. It's 45 minutes from the airport by seaplane, and its 109 rustic-chic rooms have handmade wooden furniture with African influences; 99 of them are over the water.
The 42 Lagoon Villas (55 m², formerly Manta Villas) face the sunrise and take two adults. Lagoon Suites (formerly Dolphin Villas) face the sunset, with or without a pool, and there are Aqua Suites with a slide or a private infinity pool, ten Beach Suites with pools and one 280 m² You & Me Suite with a pool, a slide, a private gym and a cinema.
Premium All-Inclusive is the only plan, with a dine-around across The Sand (the main restaurant), Green Carpet by the pool, Rising Sun for teppanyaki, La Pasta on the beach and a sushi bar. Cheers Bar has live music every night. H2O, a fully submerged restaurant by Andrea Berton seating 20, costs extra. There's an Elizabeth Arden spa with four overwater treatment bungalows, a yoga pavilion, a gym and a dive centre.
The house reef is a short boat ride away rather than off the beach, though you can snorkel from the villas, and the resort warns of currents in front of the lagoon villas in rough seas. H2O isn't part of the all-inclusive.
