The culinary experience at the new Barceló Nasandhura Malé comprises three restaurants, a snack bar and a shisha lounge: Alimas, the lounge café located on the ground floor; Oivaru, an all-day buffet-style restaurant; Dons, specialising in Chinese cuisine; rooftop bar and lounge BHeaven, offering a variety of signature mocktails and shisha area; and finally, the Pool Bar, which gives guests the opportunity to relax by the city's first and only oceanfront pool.

In addition, the new Barceló Nasandhura Malé hotel offers more than 1,000 sq m of spacious facilities for MICE events making it an ideal venue for hosting conferences, exhibitions or corporate conventions. 

 

The Maldives, key to expansion in Asia 

With this new opening, Barceló Hotel Group reaffirms its commitment to increasing its presence in Asia where it currently manages 11 hotels in six countries: Maldives, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Thailand, UAE and Oman. 

 

Barceló Nasandhura Malé is the group’s second hotel in the Maldives, where just over a year ago it opened Barceló Whale Lagoon Maldives, a 5-star resort comprising 100 luxury villas, 30 of which are overwater. This hotel is located on the Bodufinolhu island, in the South Ari Atoll, next to the South Ari Marine Protected Area (SAMPA), one of the world's most renowned destinations for spotting whale sharks. This strategic location makes it one of the best resorts for diving enthusiasts. - TradeArabia News Service
