The delightful wonders of the resort is reflected in the cuisines they provide and their main restaurant, Canneli is the perfect place to go. Canneli, which translates to ‘yellowfin tuna’ in the Maldivian native language Dhivehi, has a calming atmosphere with warm brown tones floating throughout the room. It has both indoor and outdoor seating options where during breakfast, the outdoor spot on occasion would face bundles of dolphins passing by in the distance.
