Facilities & Services
Wining & Dining
The eating and drinking experience is refreshingly simple and straightforward, offering quality through integrity of ingredients. Choices are ample - in price as well as in menus. And it becomes uniquely Kandooma when we blend in a few original dishes with the traditional service ideas.
Bokkuraa Coffee Club
A ‘buzzing ‘place to enjoy a bit of the city by the beach! Savour boutique coffees and teas; pastries and homemade cookies; and ice creams.
Poolside
Order from a menu of fresh salads, sandwiches and wood-fired pizzas or pick-up a tempting choice of meats or seafood to grill by yourself! This is the place for enjoying your favourite beverage and chatting with fellow sun-loungers.
Kandooma Café
Magnificent views, international selection of breakfasts and attendant chefs make your mornings a breeze...not to mention the views, and news & music provided by the breakfast show on Radio Kandooma.
Dinner in the evenings are buffet spreads of travel-inspired Mediterranean dishes spiced with flavours of Asia as chefs go about busily working tandoor ovens, teppan grills and rotisseries.
The Kitchen
This is our upscale dining concept, where we have brought the kitchen out and put it in the middle of the restaurant to create an exquisite and elegant dining experience.
Food is a fusion of Mediterranean and Thai cuisines, cooked by the chefs at the two main kitchen ranges.
Just a few steps away is the Wine Room housing more than 200 wines.
The Lounge
The place to hang out with your favourite drink or a cocktail to go with the sunsets!
Try your hand at bar top games, or join divers as they gather to watch the day's dive video.
The Deck
An expanse of teak flooring covers the rooftop of The Kitchen, liberally sprinkled with low tables, startling blue cushions, bean bags and splashes of greenery. It is the ideal place to worship the sunset and graze on our tapas menu with a slight bohemian twist!
Take out and delivery (24 hours)
A choice of ordering from a list of inexpensively simple but tempting bites, and having it picked up at the agreed time or having it delivered for a one off price.
Three different menu styles serve three different times: Breakfast, All Day and Night Owl. It just depends on which end of the day you live in.
Villa BBQ
Cook your own BBQ by selecting the raw ingredients and having them delivered to your villa. A wonderful way to end a day with friends and family, or the perfect style to impress that someone special...
Dive & Discover - A three-dimensional world of colour and life!
The dive locations surrounding Kandooma are destinations of choice for many resorts and diving safaris around the Maldives.
The Dive Centre is comprehensively equipped to meet the needs of advanced divers but is also suitable for absolute beginners. It is operated by a fully accredited organization which provides experienced and multi-lingual instructors.
For non-divers, it's an exploration...
While Kandooma's surrounding sea forms a national diving hub, there are many other non-diving sea-related activities to engage the senses, for example, catamaran lessons and rentals, windsurfing lessons and rentals, surf rentals, guided kayak safaris, aqua safaris, snorkelling trips, visits to local islands, picnic trips, castaway picnic for romance & solitude, sunset cruises, fishing and sunset regattas.
Sports & recreation pursuits...
Being lively and engaged is central to our reason for existing. We have developed experiences
to tickle most tastes, from pursuing an adrenaline surge on a surfboard to a reflective moment at a moonlit campfire drinking tea with a Maldivian story teller.
Traditional, frivolous & bordering on the ridiculous...
Our activities also give a spin to the more traditional, incorporating some fun, gusto and heartiness into the usual games you know, such as beach volleyball, beach cricket, Pétanque, beach croquet, bicycle polo and underwater hockey.
Reflective & Holistic
Serenity and rejuvenation await you at COMO Shambhala Spa...
The idyllic setting sets the scene of serenity and calm as it gets you in the mood for relaxation and indulgence. The spa experience is all about offering a wide range of therapeutic massages and treatments to ease your body into a relaxed state of well-being. Five treatment rooms and two Spa Villas offer the true meaning of rejuvenation.
Work-out
A fully-equipped gym is available for a good work-out.
Kandooma Kids Club
It is a world of adventure and wonderment for children 4-12 years old. It is a place to be creative & imaginative, to engage and to learn. A selection of supervised activities and fun learning has been developed as a part of the club's interactive programme.
Radio Kandooma the beat of life!
Three radio channels catering for the three different moods. Our very own DJs bringing you entertainment you can see, feel and interact with.
Kandooma Rise brings you the breakfast show ‘Bananas in the Morning', a peppy mix of the current music mixed in with the news and views from around the world.
Kandooma Breeze is 80% 80s with more familiar tracks of the late 70s, 80s and early 90s.
Kandooma Bleu is all about chill-out, lounge and R&B tunes...the really cool contemporary stuff heard in nightspots around the globe.
