4 Restaurants & 4 Bars

Minor Hotels reimagined the F&B from scratch during the 2025 refurb — four signature restaurants plus four themed bars spread across the 24-hectare island. Jumla anchors buffet meals, Kaiyo sits overwater for Asian fine dining, and a new Spanish tapas bar brings pinchos culture to the lagoon edge.

Jumla

International

Main all-day dining: rotating international buffet with egg station, live cooking, seasonal menus focused on semi-local ingredients. 'Jumla' means 'complete' in Dhivehi — it's the culinary heart of the island and where HB/FB/AI guests take breakfast daily.

Alifaan

Grill

Signature beachfront grill where wood-fired flames meet dry-aged steaks and line-caught seafood. 'Alifaan' means 'flame' — an open-air counter under thatched roof, toes in the sand. Steak, reef catch, grilled octopus, and wood-fired sides.

Kaiyo

Pan-Asian

Overwater Asian fine dining with 360-degree lagoon views and a menu pulling from Japan, Thailand and Vietnam. Sushi counter, robatayaki grill, and curries plated for sharing. Sits at the tip of the jetty beyond the spa.

Madumaithri

Beach Bar

Main bar at the new beachfront infinity pool serving comfort food and international favourites — pizzas, wraps, burgers, small bites — alongside tropical drinks. 'Madumaithri' means 'silent friend' in Dhivehi; the vibe is daytime lounging, sundowner cocktails.

Atardecer

Tapas

New sunset pinchos bar specialising in individual tapas from the north of Spain, large sharing plates and signature Spanish cocktails. 'Atardecer' is Spanish for 'sunset'. DJ sets some evenings; the ocean-facing benches catch the afterglow.

À la carte

Handhuvaru

Rum Bar

Hidden rum bar tucked into the island's landscape, home to classic rums, underwater-aged spirits and quieter nights. 'Handhuvaru' translates roughly as 'moon-lit' — the vibe is refined, low-key sophistication rather than the poolside energy of Madumaithri.

Splash Bar

Juice Bar

Health-conscious, family-friendly counter at the Activity Centre serving cold-pressed juices, smoothies, wraps and salads. Adjacent to the Maxies Family Club and the sports courts — ideal refuel stop between tennis, pickleball and kids club sessions.

Caravela

Fine Dining

Intimate six-table chef's table venue with curated wine pairings and a set tasting menu. Takes its name from the 15th-century caravel sailing ships; reflects the resort's new emphasis on high-end culinary theatre post-renovation.

Dining Inclusions

All four plans are offered, but Half Board is the sweet spot — it covers Jumla breakfast and a rotating specialty dinner, leaving budget for Kaiyo or Caravela. Full Board adds Alifaan grill nights. All-Inclusive unlocks Madumaithri and Splash Bar without extras.

All-Inclusive includes a $50 spa voucher and one free group excursion per stay. Rates subject to 10% service + 16% GST (~27.6% total on top).

Your Days on the Island

Fonimagoodhoo's wraparound reef and 15-minute boat ride to Hanifaru Bay sit at the heart of the experience. Add the post-renovation Activity Centre (tennis, pickleball, squash), the two-storey Maxies Family Club, and Ocean Fanatics PADI 5-Star dive centre — this is a surprisingly rich 5-star for its mid-luxury price point.

Family-Friendly Features

The new Maxies Family Club (launched with the 2025 relaunch) is a tech-light two-storey playground for ages 5–12 right next to the Activity Centre's Family Zone. Toddlers get a dedicated pool with water slide. Parents can hit tennis, pickleball or Splash Bar while kids are supervised next door. Children under 12 stay free, babysitting ~$25/hr on request.

House Reef & Underwater

Fonimagoodhoo has one of Baa Atoll's most consistently praised house reefs — a wraparound system with walk-in access on multiple sides, visible coral health despite bleaching cycles, and a famously long species list. Eagle rays, blacktip reef sharks, lemon sharks, barracuda, octopus, turtles and pods of spinner dolphins are all regularly logged. The Ocean Fanatics PADI 5-Star dive centre runs shore dives directly off the reef.

PADI dive center on-site. Night snorkeling available. Marine life observations sourced from dive logs and guest reports.

Transfer from Malé

Fonimagoodhoo sits in northeastern Baa Atoll — a 35-minute seaplane from Malé or a 20-min Manta Air flight to Dharavandhoo plus a 15-min speedboat. The domestic route is roughly $200 pp cheaper and runs day or night.

Who This Resort is For

NH Collection Reethi is what happens when Minor Hotels takes a beloved mid-tier resort and rebuilds it as a 5-star without losing the reef. You still get one of Baa Atoll's best house reefs, proximity to Hanifaru Bay manta rays, and a more relaxed vibe than Anantara Kihavah or Soneva — but now with a proper Spanish tapas bar, a rum lounge, and a Family Club designed for 2026. Villa sizes remain compact by 5-star standards; the trade-off is a price point well below neighbouring resorts.
