The 150-acre island of Medhufaru is yours. Stay in Soneva Jani’s 24 fairy-tale, one-to-four bedroom villas including outdoor decks with private pools, a walk-in mini bar, and floor windows with one of the best underwater shows on earth. To catch another, the press of a button retracts the roof for stargazing. Need a closer look at your favourite constellation? The world’s only overwater observatory is ready to satisfy your curiosity by granting a first-class ticket to the best show on earth. As you wish, a personal guide to the heavens will unlock the secrets of the stars. Should gazing turn to grazing, intimate dining is available around the telescope with special screens serve the constellations to your table while you eat.

Bicycles and tricycles are ready for you to pedal the jetties connecting the main island, Cinema Paradiso, and the Gardens and Labyrinth.

The Gathering’s spa, stores, global cuisine, library, wine cellar and Children’s Den is the heart of the atoll. A dive centre and marine biology center will see to it that your stay provides as much adventure and exploration as you can handle.
