Created by dynamic Maldivian entrepreneur Ahmed Siyam Mohamed, the Collection of Beach Houses are resorts which cater to the whim and fantasy of the ultra-chic jetsetter who carves a get-away-from –it –all destination.

The Beach House Collection is defined by the philosophy of ‘Crafting the Extraordinary,’ placing guests at the heart of every experience. The first Beach House property Iruveli is located on the northernmost atoll of the Maldives, while a second property Beach House Pasikudah is set to open in late October 2013 on the east coast of Sri Lanka. Future Beach Houses are planned in Bali and across the Indian Ocean.

A key hallmark of all Beach House Collection resorts is a deep attachment to the neighbouring cultures, enabling guests to be fully immersed in each destination’s distinct customs and traditions.

Beach House Iruveli crafts extraordinary experiences from its location on a remote island in the midst of Haa Alif. Guests can immerse themselves in its protected surroundings whilst enjoying breath-taking views of the Indian Ocean from its Water and Beach Villas.

Whilst staying at Beach House Iruveli, one can not only enjoy the island, but also the history of the surrounding islands and experience centuries-old customs and traditions including local cooking and handicraft workshops. There is also a range of recreational activities on offer such as the kids’ club, tennis courts, yoga, scuba-diving, snorkelling and the De’ Spa.

The Beach House Collection will also open Beach House Pasikudah in October 2013. Situated in the pristine Sri Lankan east coast, the Beach House Pasikudah will comprise of 32 luxurious suites and 2 expansive beach pavilions, with personal plunge and swimming pools. Similar to the local experiences on offer at Iruveli, guests will be encouraged to venture outside of the resort and explore the rich surrounding culture.
