House Reef

Kodhipparu is ringed by a house reef that starts within metres of the shore and of the overwater villas, with coral gardens holding turtles, blacktip reef sharks, stingrays and dense reef fish. It is snorkelled directly from the island without a boat, and Reef Pool Water Villas open onto the reef edge from their own deck. The reef was nominated Best House Reef at the 2026 Travel + Leisure Southeast Asia Luxury Awards.
