INEO delivers commercial kitchen solutions for RAH GILI MALDIVES
Located in South Malé Atoll, RAH GILI MALDIVES, formerly known as Rihiveli Resort Maldives, underwent a major renovation and rebranding to create a luxury island retreat with six distinctive dining venues.
INEO was responsible for the commercial kitchen design and equipment supply for the resort’s main kitchen, Asian and Italian specialty kitchen, pool bar, and staff cafeteria.
One Project, Multiple Kitchen Requirements
Each kitchen was designed around its specific menu and daily operations. The main kitchen supports all-day dining, while the specialty kitchen accommodates Asian cooking, Italian cuisine, teppanyaki, and baking. The staff cafeteria was also equipped with dedicated cooking equipment to meet the needs of the resort’s team.
Our scope included equipment selection, kitchen layout coordination, and communication with the resort management, engineering contractor, and interior design team. Multiple design revisions were completed before equipment delivery was coordinated with the construction schedule.
Practical Solutions for Island Operations
Working on a remote island requires careful planning. Storage capacity, equipment reliability, and delivery schedules all affect the smooth operation of a resort kitchen.
For RAH GILI MALDIVES, the design incorporated six independent cold rooms for fish, meat, vegetables, bakery products, dairy, and general storage. Each room has its own compressor and evaporator, helping separate storage requirements and reduce dependence on a single refrigeration system.
The specialty kitchen includes twin wok stations, a teppanyaki counter with integrated smoke extraction, and a double-deck baking oven with a separate proofing cabinet. Water-fed equipment was also provided with Everpure filtration to help address potential scale-related issues.
These details reflect our approach to commercial kitchen engineering: equipment and layouts should be selected according to the actual needs of each outlet, not simply supplied as individual products.
Beyond Equipment Supply
At INEO, we understand that a successful project extends beyond delivery. Remote-island logistics, installation coordination, and ongoing maintenance all contribute to long-term kitchen performance.
The RAH GILI MALDIVES project demonstrates INEO’s experience in delivering integrated kitchen solutions for luxury island resorts, from design and equipment supply to after-sales support. Preventive maintenance and service checks are planned every six months.
INEO provides one-stop hospitality solutions for hotels and resorts, covering commercial kitchens, cold rooms, ventilation, bars, laundry, and F&B OS&E.
