Accommodations

Elegant and pared-back indigenous architecture.

This design woven throughout the accommodation here references indigenous architecture while remaining elegantly pared back to reflect the island's calming setting. In line with the classic look of overwater bungalows, the suites and villas are built off wooden walkways that stand above the shallow lagoon. Each has its own private terrace for slipping into the sea, while the beach rooms benefit from being set in the island's tropical heart. The views are consistently spectacular, either lush gardens or directly out to the shimmering turquoise sea. Each room’s decor is designed to bring the colors of water, sand and sky into the heart of the residence, whether it's an overwater villa or a beach house set among garden palms.
Pool + Gym

Private pools for indulgent dips.

There's a large infinity pool located nearby the property's restaurant and bar, an ideal spot for soaking up the sun, enjoying a drink and bite to eat, and socializing with other guests. For moments of indulgent privacy, each accommodation also comes with its own private pool.

The COMO Shambhala retreat features an outdoor yoga pavilion and an indoor fitness center equipped with cardio machines and weights, open twenty-four hours a day. Complimentary yoga classes run twice daily, alongside meditation and core connection sessions.
Spa

Overwater treatments rooted in Asian tradition.

The COMO Shambhala Retreat goes hand-in-hand with the private island experience. Eight double treatment pavilions are set over the water, with doors that open wide so guests can relax on a massage bed or in oversized bathtubs to the sound of the waves and the ocean breeze. The facility also features steam, sauna, and jacuzzi areas with views of the Indian Ocean. Treatments are based on Asian traditions, from Thai Massage, Taksu and Indonesian Massage, to Foot Reflexology and Indian Head Massage. The retreat also offers classic beauty treatments, including Sundari Facials, manicures, and pedicures.
Restaurant + Bar

From sushi and sashimi to seafood barbecues on the beach.

Local seafood is served as sushi and sashimi at Tai, the resort's Japanese restaurant, open in the evenings. Madi's all-day dining celebrates flavor and freshness, with beach barbecues, healthy salads, and COMO cuisine classics. Healthy COMO Shambhala Kitchen menus are also available in-room. Madi's easy, all-day dining menus expand into themed events three days a week. Monday nights explore the Indian Ocean's characteristic sweet, sour, hot, and salty flavors, while Wednesdays feature either a Thai or Indonesian menu with delicious curries, soups, and salads. The week ends with a seafood barbecue every Friday night, where you can enjoy dinner while watching the stars rise above the lagoon. Tai showcases sustainable seafood from the Indian Ocean prepared with Japanese techniques. Dishes include sushi rolls, tempura, fish and steak cooked over charcoal, noodles, and rice. Tai also serves Japanese whiskies, soju, shochu, and umeshu.

Thila serves cuisine from Madi, as well as beverages around a warmly lit angular bar. Cocktails include classics alongside island creations with notes of lemongrass, basil, honey melon, and more. Non-alcoholic options are just as artful, with mocktails crafted to match.
