SUSTAINABILITY INSPIRED BY CULTURE

Homegrown to homemade, the Maldivian culture is deeply rooted in a rich connection with the earth, sea and trade. Across our Maldives dining venues and experiences, you will encounter the bond with the sea and culture sharing through food. Honour the connection with the earth by gathering from our organic garden or claiming your own catch of the day, prepared by our chefs. Relish in a rich cultural exchange of varied cuisines by invited world-class chefs. Cultivate sustainability with skills you can take away for a lifetime, crafting infusions or fermenting a custom kombucha to your taste.

Amilla recognized as Maldivian resort leading the charge on sustainability with dining initiatives that go beyond the more standardized veggie and herb gardens to include a banana plantation, hydroponic garden, mushroom hut and coconut processing facility…
