Cheval Blanc Randheli
LVMH Group, a luxury leader, crosses boundaries with a boutique masterpiece!
LVMH Group, parent company of Louis Vuitton, followed up their Château Cheval Blanc in France by planting their second flag in the Maldives at the end of 2013. Designed by top resort architect Jean Michel Gathy, this is LVMH’s second Cheval Blanc hotel worldwide.
Cheval Blanc Estate offers top-tier amenities including daily in-room breakfast and VIP concierge services.
Overview of Cheval Blanc Maldives Resort
A perfect vacation begins with admiring the endless beauty of the Indian Ocean from the water jet! In addition to the usual seaplanes, you can also opt for the resort’s designated “private seaplane.” The specially designed hand-stitched gray leather chairs inside the private jet have a luxurious and smooth feel. It is also one of the few in the Maldives that has its own lounge. For transfers, instead of buses, the hotel provides Mercedes-Benz S Class vehicles, offering specialty-level treatment.
Cheval Blanc carefully and skillfully designed the resort into the natural scenery of the island, combining local traditional culture, contemporary aesthetics and the lush green tropical plants around the hotel to create a relaxing and leisurely environment. Color has always been the visual focus at Cheval Blanc Hotel. Each hotel selects a theme color, and at Cheval Blanc Randheli, the chosen theme color is a light goose yellow and milky white. While dazzling, this color palette brings warmth without sacrificing their hue.
LVMH’s Masterpiece
The LVMH Group, parent of leading brand LV, has crossed over to the top resort in the Maldives. This location was the second boutique hotel under the group. Therefore, LVMH spared no expense by inviting the world famous designer, Jean Michel Gathy, who’s work can be seen all over the world. World-class hotels designed with Gathy’s skillful hands include: St. Regis Resort Lhasa, Tibet, Park Hyatt Sanya Sunny Bay, China, Times Hotel Miami Beach, and the list goes on.
The exquisitely decorated space is connected to a tropical garden filled with greenery and swaying palm trees, creating a Cheval Blanc “manor” atmosphere. Each private villa features a 12.5-meter-wide private swimming pool. Additionally, all villas are equipped with a smart furniture system, similar to those found on luxury yachts, controlled via iPad, allowing you to enjoy luxury on an island far from the bustle of life!
Embrace island luxury and elegance in the Maldives
Cheval Blanc Resort is located on Landaa Island in the Maldives. This elegant and refined resort is designed for a leisurely barefoot island lifestyle, offering a sense of private estate living.
The elevated cathedral-style ceiling, embedded with 7-meter-high doors, creates a spacious and airy atmosphere, showcasing the seamless connection between indoor and outdoor scenery. The exterior features resort elements such as teak wood, rattan, bamboo, and thatch, while the interior boasts sleek and fashionable lines. This design blends a refined, modern approach with abundant traditional natural materials. The color scheme includes vibrant lemon yellow circular sculptures set against a low-tone palette of gray-brown and off-white, conveying an appreciation for distant cultures and a sophisticated taste, all while maintaining the illustrious heritage of the LV group.
A Three-Star Michelin chef crafting the finest gourmet experience
The most iconic design of Cheval Blanc: the exquisite restaurant “Le 1947,” is named after the most prestigious vintage of the Château Cheval Blanc wine estate. Considered one of the eight great wine estates of Bordeaux, they produced the 1947 vintage Cheval Blanc, a top-tier wine that has been acclaimed as “the most perfect creation of this century.”
