Anantara Kihavah, SEA

One of the world's few underwater restaurants with an award-winning wine cellar, guests experience a tasting journey in a surreal setting. Mirrored surfaces cover the hexagonal space, reflecting the graceful movements of angelfish and the gentle sway of sunlit soft corals.

With over 450 bottles from over two dozen countries, the Wine Guru at SEA curates a flight of wines or expertly pairs rare vintages with a meal prepared by the Executive Chef. The wine cellar maintains cooler temperatures, ensuring the graceful aging of each bottle.

Unsurprisingly, World of Fine Wines Magazine gave SEA three-star recognition for the fifth year.
