You wake up, to a gorgeous view, listening to waves lapping away outside, and the air is warm and balmy. So what better way to top it off than having an awesome breakfast on the beach? 😀 The restaurant offers both ala carte and/or buffet, with both Western and Asian options. It’s just delightful having a lazy meal and taking in the brilliant turquoise waters in front of you. I loved their fresh fruit juices, most of all their custard apple juice – a smooth, creamy and sweet blend.
And so began our day every morning – a massive pig out on 1 a la carte dish each, then hit the buffet for the next course(s).. and washed it all down with a latte (they were experts at making lattes here). What better way to start the day? 🙂
The view in the morning, whilst lying in bed
In our own little breakfast hut. The background looks fake! 😛
Fresh baked croissants and blueberry muffins
Cilantro and scallion rolled omelette with wild oak smoked salmon, arugula, caper creme fraiche
Seared Maldivian yellow fin tuna cakes on a bed of mango and papaya salsa and cajun roasted potatoes
Assorted stuff from the buffet table. Loved the noodles, and the bircher muesli (in the little bowl)!
Wild-oak smoked salmon with chive cream cheese and arugula on a toasted bagel
Nasi Lemak!
Indian ocean wahoo fillet wrapped in foil and baked with asparagus, tomato, herbs and olive oil
Fried noodles. This was freakin’ amazing!
Maldivian tuna with chilli, lime, coconut and chappati
Roasted potato and parmesan frittata wedge
Lattes, done so perfectly they left us stunned
Buttermilk pancakes with sliced bananas, strawberries, chocolate sauce and maple syrup
Oh nom nom nom…
French toast brioche with maple syrup
Very pleased with all the breakfast grub
Married life is bliss 🙂
PS. I blame these decadent breakfasts for making me gain back all my weight after the wedding 😉 I managed to be 45KG on our wedding day – I think from sheer nervousness! But after the honeymoon? Stacked the 1KG I lost riiiiight back on. FAIL.
OMG. SO GOOD!!! I’m drooling.

wow the breakfast is like boggling already!! cant imagine what the lunches and dinners could be like!!
It was a looootttt of food, we had no choice but to gain weight, haha!
twas a gain thats worth it!! 😉
seriously if that’s breakfast i can imagine the best is yet to come!
It was food galllloooore all day long – awesomeness, hehe!
OMGzor looks so delicious. The homer simpson icon is DEFINITELY appropriate here.
Hahah so true! But i reckon people would put on sooooo much weight there if they stayed more than a wk 😛
You didn’t eat all that food in one breakfast sitting right?! Looks so yummy… And I’m amazed you only gained 1kg, I’m sure I would have gained 10 in a week with all that temptation 😛
Are you going to wear your engagement ring along with your wedding ring, or is it packed away now?
Nah was a few breakfasts 🙂 Each breakfast was a plate of fruit and muesli, and noodles/sausage/tomato/hotfood.. then the main course.. and then a dessert. It was gooooood.
I wear both rings together now 🙂
soooooooooo picture perfect!!!
Yeah it was reaaaally nice, and no editing needed for the pics 😛
yay! honeymoon FOOD pics! man everything looks so good…
Hehe the whole honeymoon isn’t blogged properly unless i include food pics 😛 there’s more to come too, bwhahhaha
did you eat all the food in all those food pics every morning? or were the photos taken over a few days at breakfast time?
everything looks amazing! i want to go the maldives now!!!
But once you go it’s sooooooo hard to leave!!

Wow, it’s mind-boggling for me to know that they serve Nasi Lemak and Fried Noodles in the Maldives. And the food looked absolutely perfect and divine! Not good for those fasting. Hehe. And how is it possible with all that perfect, indulgent food, you only gained 1kg? Mind-boggling! =p
totally! it’s why I was so keen to try it.. and I actually thouoght it was better than some of their western breakfasts – it was done so well 🙂
1KG shows up like hell on me.. mainly on my bum and thunder thighs 🙁
your maldives pictures make me want to go for a beach holiday there! and i’m so not a beach person.
ME NEITHER! I rarely go to the beach cos i’m just not a happy person there, lol.
but i looooved it so much in the maldives and kept wanting to hop in the water – I think I weirded out Chris with how keen i was 😛
The breakfast is so luxe!
Luxe… and filling! It was hard to swim after breakfast every day 😉
soooooooooo picture perfect!!!
