One of the highlights of a stay at Olhuveli is the outstanding cuisine, which has fresh, delicious seafood at its heart. Think creative, organic food with flair, prepared by world-class chefs and served in enjoyably different and unique settings. From an unhurried lunch on the beach with friends or family, dining alfresco in the relaxing heat of the day, to a candle-lit dinner for two under the stars, all tastes are well-catered for.
Sunset Restaurant
Built entirely over water, our main restaurant is open daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner with an emphasis on local or international flavours. From succulent prawns in spices to outstanding wines, the open-sided design means a meal here is pleasantly cooled by gentle sea breezes. As well as buffet-style dining, one of the highlights is the live cooking stations, when tantalizing flames and scents arise under the careful eye of talented chefs. Great cooking deserves a splash of theatre. The extensive open deck gives the choice to sit under the stars for an alfresco dinner.
Lagoon Restaurant
For guests who find getting away from the beach impossible, our Lagoon restaurant sits right on the beach with ample open decking and overlooking the beautiful beach and lagoon. As well as being a great location for an easygoing lunch, it makes an informal but enjoyable place to have sumptuous supper and talk long into the night.
