Sustainability
Sustainability in the heart of our Kanuhura resort
Conservation is an everyday journey, starting with our Marine Biology team, who monitor and protect turtles, coral, and seagrass across the atoll year-round, sharing their progress via talks and in-water experiences. Our Earth Lab is where guests and hosts turn everyday waste — glass, paper, food scraps — into something useful, through workshops and tips to use back home. We offer Sustainability Tours, where we showcase our operations, such as our water bottling plant, Organic Garden, Orchid Garden, and energy conservation efforts.
Our Journal
There is a particular kind of ease that finds you at Six Senses Kanuhura, usually during your first walk along the beach or second sunset at The Point and the moment you realize shoes have become theoretical. Three islands, endless white sand, a lagoon that changes color with the light, and a table somewhere waiting with your name on it.
Come with a plan. Let the island undo it. Here are a few of the stories that begin here.

A Maldives beach experience at Six Senses Kanuhura
At some point during the planning of a Maldives trip, most people make a list. Snorkeling, spa, private dinner, sunset cruise, watersports. It is a reasonable list. It is also completely optional. The underrated skill of a great Maldives beach resort is knowing when to get out of your own way and let the beach be the whole experience.

A Maldives private island experience
Most resorts give you an island. Six Senses Kanuhura gives you three. A long sweep of white sand beach, a castaway lunch island just a boat ride away, and a third left entirely to nature and your imagination. Each one different, each one yours, and no two days that ever look the same.
Accommodation
Six Senses Kanuhura has 85 beachfront and overwater villas, combining a tropical island feel with utmost comfort. Whether staying footsteps from the iconic beaches or perched on stilts over the tranquil lagoon, all accommodation offers a sophisticated yet charming style. Villas range from one-bedroom to three-bedroom, offering a vast array of accommodation options suitable for couples, families and larger groups alike.
