The property
Underwater dining and an observatory
Kihavah pairs two unusual things. SEA sits below the waterline with the reef pressed against the glass, and the wine cellar beside it holds a serious list. Above deck, SKY is an observatory with a telescope and a resident 'Sky Guru' who runs stargazing sessions — the Baa Atoll's low light pollution makes it genuinely worthwhile. Hanifaru Bay is close for the manta season.
