If you thought overwater villas in the Maldives were the ultimate dream, Cheval Blanc Randheli Private Island takes luxury to an entirely new level.

Owned by LVMH, this 8,000-square-meter private island offers far more than just accommodation — it’s a fully staffed, ultra-private residence featuring four bedrooms, a spa, gym, cinema room, multiple dining areas, private beaches, a jetty, and a dedicated team catering to every need.

The experience begins before arrival: guests are flown in on Cheval Blanc’s signature seaplane after relaxing in a private lounge in Malé, setting the tone for an extraordinary stay. While enjoying complete seclusion on their own island, visitors also have full access to the main resort’s restaurants, bars, spa, sports island, kids’ club, and diving center — blending exclusivity with масштаб.

The residence spans approximately 2,200 square meters of indoor and outdoor living space. It includes a panoramic master suite, two family bedrooms on the ground floor, and a separate guest villa — making it ideal for multi-generational families, groups of friends, or private delegations. Spacious living areas, a piano lounge, bar, and a 25-meter pool create the feel of a private tropical estate rather than a resort.

The design reflects LVMH’s signature aesthetic — soft whites, beiges, and the brand’s iconic yellow — combined with traditional island materials like rattan, bamboo, and mother-of-pearl. Every detail is curated, down to the Maison’s signature scent. Life here revolves around water, with guests moving seamlessly between the ocean, pool, and jacuzzi, before retreating to pristine beaches and lush gardens.

For ultimate relaxation, a private spa suite offers exclusive treatments by Guerlain. A personal boat connects the island to the rest of the resort, ensuring effortless access without sacrificing privacy. Fine dining reaches its peak at Le 1947, designed by acclaimed architect Jean-Michel Gathy.

Every detail is considered — from a Beauty Studio and barbershop to a jungle-set fitness area, professional tennis courts, and even the Maldives’ only surfing simulator.

This level of luxury comes at a price: approximately $70,000 per night — redefining what it means to escape in style.
