Accommodations
Villa categories include beach, water and over-water villas. Our earlier article described a King Superior Water Villa with a whirlpool on the sun deck and a two-bedroom Sunset Water Villa on stilts with glass floors and a round master bed that rotates to follow the sunset. We could not re-confirm the current villa lineup, so check Hilton’s site before booking. Package examples: a five-night beach villa family offer for 2 adults and 2 children was listed from $7,316 for stays between 10 January and 10 April 2026.
Unique activities
Spa, diving, water sports and excursions such as dolphin spotting and whale shark trips are on offer. The resort also markets weddings on the white sand of Rangali.
Restaurants
Ithaa is described as the world’s first undersea restaurant. The Muraka is presented as the world’s first underwater hotel residence, with an underwater master bedroom. We found no published rates for either. Reviewers list between 8 and 12 restaurants, so the exact count varies by source.
