H2O Underwater Restaurant priced $300 per dinner

A May 23 social-media post drew attention to the price of dinner at H2O Underwater Restaurant, the submerged dining room at You & Me Maldives in Raa Atoll. The post described a tasting-menu meal at about $300 per person and included course-by-course notes, service details and wine-pairing references. The resort’s own website matches that headline figure for current dinner pricing. You & Me Maldives says H2O has charged $300 per person for dinner from Jan. 1, 2026, with beverages billed separately. ### How much does dinner at H2O actually cost? You & Me Maldives lists dinner at H2O at $300 per person for “Food only” for bookings from Jan. 1, 2026. The same page says the dinner format is a seven-course menu and that beverages are charged “as per consumption.” The resort also lists lunch at $220 per person from the same date. (youandmemaldives.com) An earlier menu document circulating online shows the previous dinner price at $280 per person excluding beverages, before the Jan. 1, 2026 increase. That document also says prices are inclusive of taxes and fees and subject to change without notice. ### What is H2O selling besides the underwater setting? (youandmemaldives.com) H2O is marketed by You & Me Maldives as an underwater restaurant led by chef Andrea Berton. The resort says the venue sits six metres below the surface, offers 360-degree views and serves only 20 guests at a time. The property describes the concept as a Michelin-star dining experience tied to Berton’s name. (kompastour.com) The resort’s website says prior reservation is required. It also says diners who are not staying at You & Me Maldives can contact the resort directly for dinner reservations. ### What does the menu look like? A menu document for H2O shows the dinner built around a multi-course tasting format. Dishes listed in the file include parmigiana di melanzane, carrot with passion fruit and almond, potato spaghetti with shallot and truffle, duck ravioli with saffron sauce, and beef tenderloin with daikon, papaya and coconut. (youandmemaldives.com) A seafood version in the same document lists sea scallop, calamaro, parsley risotto with prawns, and local lobster. The same file shows lunch as a five-course menu and dinner service split into two seatings: 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. and 9 p.m. to 11 p.m., with the later seating used when the first is full. It lists Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday as lunch-and-dinner operating days, with Monday, Wednesday and Friday marked closed. (kompastour.com) ### Is the $300 figure the full bill? The resort says the $300 dinner price covers food only, not drinks. The menu document also lists an extra charge for “table 5” — $30 more per person at dinner — and sets cancellation penalties at 50% within 12 hours and 100% for no-shows. That means the final bill can run above the headline dinner price once beverages or premium seating are added. (kompastour.com) The May 23 review that circulated online focused on those add-ons, including wine-pairing choices and exact per-course notes, but the resort’s published pricing establishes $300 as the current base dinner rate. ### Where can travelers verify the details next? (kompastour.com) You & Me Maldives keeps the current H2O pricing on its restaurant page, where it states the Jan. 1, 2026 dinner rate and booking requirement. The resort’s menu file also sets out operating days, seating times, cancellation terms and sample courses for lunch and dinner. (youandmemaldives.com)
