Milaidhoo Maldives, a distinguished luxury boutique resort located within the breathtaking Baa Atoll UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, has unveiled its latest dining destination: Azure. This new concept is designed to reflect the spirit of island simplicity while delivering an elevated beachside dining experience.

Set beneath the shade of lush screw pine trees, Azure is a tranquil escape where guests can immerse themselves in the serene charm of barefoot luxury. With its beach shack ambiance and stunning coastal views, the venue provides an ideal setting to enjoy a leisurely lunch while taking in the soothing rhythm of the waves. Open daily from noon to 4:00 PM, Azure offers a relaxed midday retreat that brings guests closer to the natural beauty of the Maldives.

Focusing on vibrant, refreshing dishes, Azure’s menu features light, flavourful bites and artisan wood-fired pizzas. Among the highlights is the signature Azure pizza, which creatively incorporates local ingredients such as lobster, tuna carpaccio, sun-dried fish, and herbs picked fresh from the Chef’s garden—Maldivian rocket included—topped with a spicy Maldivian chilli tomato sauce base.

To complement the coastal vibe, guests can choose from a curated list of cocktails and the ever-popular Provence rosé—perfect for sipping under the sun. The meal experience ends on a sweet and cooling note with a selection of handcrafted tropical sorbets. Unique flavour options include creamy coconut, tart lemon screw pine, fresh basil, and floral hibiscus.

“As part of the Milaidhoo philosophy, we encourage guests to embrace a carefree, unpretentious lifestyle,” shares Executive Chef Ken Gundu. “Azure is about connecting with the essence of Maldivian life—beautiful scenery, warm hospitality, and delicious, thoughtfully prepared food.”

Azure Menu Highlights:

• Light lunch options: Seasonal, fresh small plates perfect for a warm island day
