The H2O underwater restaurant is a showstopping venue set below sea level, launched as a new mouth-watering attraction at the You & Me by Cocoon resort in Raa Atoll.
A unique culinary experience on the international restaurant scene
The highlight of this project – in addition to carefully curated interiors by LAGO and the spectacular experience of dining underwater in the Maldives – is the Michelin-starred cuisine presented by Italian chef Andrea Berton, awarded a Michelin star at his Ristorante Berton in Milan and another at Ristorante Berton in Lake Como. Immersed in the untouched beauty of the Indian Ocean, here you can find a place where Italian cuisine and food culture and the quality of made-in-Italy design come together.
The walls and ceiling of the restaurant are formed by vast glass windows, welcoming diners and capturing the magic of this incredible place, offering 360° views of the coral seabed.
The furniture for the venue has been tailor-made by LAGO to adapt to the restaurant’s unique context and replicate the style of the Cocoon Maldives resort. To give the space a light and airy feel, tables from the Air collection have been chosen. They stand, almost floating, on subtle glass supports and feature hand-painted ceramic tiles.
Deep dark colours dominate the arrangement, used for both the tables and the Dangla chairs upholstered in Grafite leather. They evoke the shades and tones typical of a marine environment, accentuating the underwater feel of the space.
The result is a relaxing, romantic oasis, which sits in perfect harmony with its natural surroundings. Guests are almost able to touch the fanciful dream of living underwater. This designer restaurant is one of a kind, submerged in the outstanding natural beauty of the Maldives.
