Six & Six Private Islands to Debut in the Maldives With Indian Guests in Mind

Located a short 40-minute speedboat ride from Malé, the soon-to-open Rah Gili Maldives will mark Six & Six Private Islands’ debut island in the archipelago. The aim? To provide guests with an experience rooted in simplicity, soul, and space.

Stay, Dine, and Experience

With just 74 villas, the island’s design experience will draw from the region’s natural ambience. Think textured timber, handwoven surfaces, and open-plan villas that promise views of the azure blue waters or the serene sands of the nation.

At Rah Gili, the focus extends beyond design to every curated experience, too. Take the childrens’ programmes, for instance. Moving beyond the regular clichés of crèches, the kid-friendly experiences here will include activities such as stargazing, reef foraging, making crafts using coconuts, and more. Older guests will be able to immerse in wellness experiences—whether through sunrise rituals, lunar-aligned treatments, or simply gazing at the dolphin sanctuary that surrounds Rah Gili’s shores.

The Indian Connect

Keeping the high inbound tourist numbers from India, each accommodation at Rah Gili will come with the added advantage of ample space—an important factor for multi-generational travellers.

In fact, the island has also taken regional culinary preferences into account. That’s why, then, at the Indian restaurant Tiffin, dishes will draw on the spice trails of Kerala, Kolkata, and more.

At Rah Gili, there will be no rush, no performance—just space to arrive as you are and leave a little lighter. This is just the beginning: Six & Six will unveil one island at a time, each with its own architectural voice, elemental focus, and cultural grounding.
