Taj
Exotica Resort situated on the island of Emboodhu Finolhu, in the
middle of one of the largest lagoons in the Maldives, the Taj Exotica
Resort and Spa offers you the ultimate luxury: being one with nature.
The comforts of fine living seamlessly blend in with the natural foliage.
The island slowly reveals itself from amidst the lush tropical surroundings.
While a clear sand lagoon – one of the largest in the Maldives – beckons
you in. |
| Dining |
 |
No
matter where you choose to dine on the island – you are free
to pick any spot you like – you’ll find the experience as
unique as the island itself. Our two restaurants and the bar
are set amidst surroundings that create an ambience all their
own. Each offers uninterrupted panoramic views of the lagoon.
With the option of either dining indoors, or on the open deck
to take full advantage of the time of day and the weather.
Warm, attentive yet unobtrusive service complements the surroundings.
Our team of international chefs, including a Japanese chef,
have created menus as eclectic as the guest list. The range
stretches from the simple to the exotic and covers the gamut
of international cuisine. The ingredients are only the finest
and freshest. And the menus are constantly refreshed. Should
you have a special dietary requirement our chefs will gladly
customise a menu just for you. . |

| 24
Degrees – All day à la Carte dining. Set by the ocean, 24
Degrees enjoys a relaxed, almost timeless air. Meals are unhurried,
and served at your pace. The service is unobtrusive yet ensures
you want for nothing. Large high-ceilinged thatched roofs and
a spacious airy deck accentuate the surroundings. You’re free
to dine anywhere you wish. Choose between the split-level interiors
or right out on the beach under a canopy of stars. Much like
everything else on the island you’ll find there’s very little
separating the great outdoors from the inside. Making this the
ideal destination for candle-lit dinners, themed evenings or
even a champagne breakfast. And if that’s what you desire, we’d
be more than happy to arrange one for you. |

| 24
Degrees seats about 90, and serves an assortment of à la carte
delicacies that highlight the pan-Asian, Japanese and Continental
palate. It is open from 7 am. to 11 pm. |

Equator
- A fine collection of wines and spirits nestle here. Complemented
by a décor that promotes an easy, relaxed ambience. On offer
is a master list of wines specially put together for the resort.
Feel free to take a trip to the wine room and sample a few wines
before you take your pick. The Equator is characterised by a
sunken sand pit, set around a bar. And a spacious airy deck
lit with mashaals, or traditional torches. The air is thick
with a repertoire of jazz and blues. And for the late night
drinkers, there are the spirits, schnapps, malts and cognacs.
While cigar smokers can take their pick from a selection of
Cuban cigars. |

The
Deep End
|
| The
Deep End – Fine dining Mediterranean restaurant.You don’t
enter The Deep End. You enter the Indian Ocean. It begins with
a sandy pathway that winds its way through thick foliage till
you’re greeted by a sudden burst of blue. Perched out on the
ocean is the restaurant. A torch-lit wooden gangway takes you
up into interiors that are no less dramatic than the location.
In the centre lies a circular opening that showcases the ocean
below. The seating area is arranged around this and makes for
a memorable meal. An open deck takes you further out into the
deep blue. |
 |
| While
the restaurant’s thatched canopy offers open-air dining for
those who’d rather stay indoors. The Deep End is a fine dining
Mediterranean restaurant. And offers an à la carte menu with
an extensive choice of fresh seafood, including a variety of
local fish, as also game and meat, combined with a wide range
of desserts, wines and cigars. |
