The retreat, in full
You & Me Maldives is an adults-only retreat under the Cocoon Collection, set on a 3.5-hectare island in the Raa Atoll — 45 minutes by seaplane from Velana, or 20 minutes by speedboat from Ifuru. The register is rustic and held closely: 109 rooms in all, 99 of them over-water, polished wooden floors, handmade furnishings drawn from African traditions, and a sand-step beach line for the remaining ten. The headline turn is H2O by Andrea Berton — a fully submerged restaurant for twenty at a time, Michelin-tier and set against the lagoon column. A "dine around" plan opens every à-la-carte room to half-board, full-board and all-inclusive guests; the Spa runs from four over-water bungalows.
Arrival. 45 min seaplane from Velana — or 20 min speedboat from Ifuru Domestic. We time the transfer to your flight, and confirm it in writing with the rest of the stay.

DiningH2O by Andrea Berton
One of the country's few fully-submerged restaurants — Michelin-tier, held for twenty at a time. The week's one unmissable table.
DiningThe dine-around plan
Six rooms — teppanyaki and Italian among them — open to every board basis, so the week never eats the same room twice.
MarineThe door-step water
PADI centre, house reef, sandbank and dolphin cruises run straight from the island — Raa's deep atoll at the deck's edge.
The over-water spa
Four over-water treatment bungalows and an outdoor jacuzzi — scaled for two, like the island itself.
Honeymoons, anniversaries, birthdays
An adults-only island built for two takes the two-person occasion best — the proposal at the sandbank, the anniversary held at H2O beneath the lagoon. Quiet, rustic, witnessed only by the water.
