Aqua Suite with Slide
Over-water · slideOver-water with a lagoon slide drawn off the deck — for the lighter week.
The Retreat
You & Me Maldives is an adults-only house under the Cocoon Collection, set on a 3.5-hectare island in the Raa Atoll — 45 minutes by seaplane from Velana, or 20 minutes by speedboat from Ifuru. The register is rustic and held closely: 109 rooms in all, 99 of them over-water, polished wooden floors, handmade furnishings drawn from African traditions, and a sand-step beach line for the remaining ten. The headline turn is H2O by Andrea Berton — a fully submerged restaurant for twenty at a time, Michelin-tier and set against the lagoon column. A "dine around" plan opens every à-la-carte room to half-board, full-board and all-inclusive guests; the Spa runs from four over-water bungalows.
For the adults-only week — 109 rooms, a submerged restaurant, and the lagoon at the deck.

Dining Experiences
From the signature room held by a single chef to the long-lunch beach kitchen — the dining experiences at You & Me Maldives are drawn for the hour of the day, not the page of the menu.
A fully submerged room for twenty at a time — set menu, the lagoon column on every side. The headline turn of the house.
The main room — breakfast and dinner under live cooking stations, a wine cellar held to one side, the rustic line throughout.
A communal room at the beach shores — pasta and pizzerias for lunch and dinner.
A teppanyaki room — live cooking at the bar, intimate setting, authentic Japanese.
Urban-chic by the pool — healthy plates, the lighter lunch.
Beside the main pool — fresh cocktails, wines and champagne under live music every night.

Wellbeing
Four over-water treatment bungalows and an outdoor jacuzzi — scaled for two, like the island itself.
Experiences
What the retreat actually does well beyond the villa line — with its own schedules and price lists where it publishes them. Every experience is arranged through your correspondent.
One of the country's few fully-submerged restaurants — Michelin-tier, held for twenty at a time. The week's one unmissable table.
Six rooms — teppanyaki and Italian among them — open to every board basis, so the week never eats the same room twice.
PADI centre, house reef, sandbank and dolphin cruises run straight from the island — Raa's deep atoll at the deck's edge.
The Shape of a Day
A sketched register of one day at You & Me Maldives — the hours we tend to compose around. Yours will be drawn for the company you keep.
Ninety-nine rooms over the water — the lagoon is the first thing the day shows you.
Raa's sites with the PADI centre, or the dolphin channel on the cruise days.
Four bungalows over the water; the outdoor jacuzzi takes the late heat.
H2O early in the week, the dine-around after — six rooms, never repeated.
Occasions
An adults-only island built for two takes the two-person occasion best — the proposal at the sandbank, the anniversary held at H2O beneath the lagoon. Quiet, rustic, witnessed only by the water.
