Designed by renowned architect Yuji Yamazaki, Kudadoo offers 13 one-bedroom Ocean Residences (each measuring 3,229 sq ft) and two two-bedroom Ocean Residences (4,090 sq ft), all with a 474-sq-ft terrace pool and some of the largest sundecks in the Maldives. Kudadoo is encircled by its own private beach, while The Retreat is home to Sulha Spa, the restaurant, bar, game room, an expansive infinity swimming pool with a sundeck area, as well as the gym.
