Cheval Blanc, the luxury hospitality brand developed by LVMH Hotel Management, a specialist entity of the LVMH Group in charge of hotel activities, has confirmed the opening of its new Maison in the Maldives in 2013.

The property will open on the island of Randheli, on Noonu Atoll, with 46 villas.

At this stage, no further details have been confirmed.

This is the second Maison in the Cheval Blanc portfolio.

Its sister property Cheval Blanc Courchevel opened in 2006 in the prestigious French ski resort.

The Maison has direct access to the Trois Vallées ski domain from its 1850 ski-in ski-out location, 36 rooms and a spa with signature treatments by Guerlain.

Its two-Michelin starred restaurant, the 1947, has Yannick Alléno at its helm.

It will open for the winter 2012-13 season on December 12th.
