Childhood Odyssey at Cheval Blanc Randheli
A place especially for children,Le Carrousel at Cheval Blanc Randheliis expanding with a new immersive and creative concept: A dive into the Noonu Atoll.
Dubai, January 2022: At the centre of the tropical world of Cheval Blanc Randheli, a children’s kingdom crowned with a 500m2 house-cabin facing the beach is expanding and adding new opportunities for creative play.
As soon as they arrive, children are welcomed by the Ambassadors of Le Carrousel in three areas dedicated, respectively, to the youngest children, to teenagers, and to families. Trained and dedicated to young explorers, the Ambassadors are there to guide them through real and virtual worlds.
The rounded walls intuitively lead to Le Carrousel reception. As in the tale of “Alice in Wonderland,” everything is on a reduced scale. The borders between exterior and interior dissolve seamlessly, in perfect harmony with the Maldivian buildings and their iconic straw roofs. Walls painted with imaginary fishes enliven a playroom opening onto an outdoor trampoline and revealing a huge net-tree, a slide, and a climbing wall for ascending to the firmament of one’s childhood dreams.
On another wall, an interactive screen allows children to create their own virtual fish, which evolves among the corals and lagoons of the atoll and will be reactivated by the child each time he or she passes.
Then, for the teenagers, it’s time to take the plunge and marvel at the diversity of shapes and colours that abound in the life-rich Maldives sea during special scuba diving sessions.
The many workshops designed and organised especially for teenagers are a haven for the most curious in search of discovery and knowledge: drawing walls, virtual reality helmets, creative and sports areas are there for the enjoyment and edification of explorers of all ages. And the surf simulator allows daredevils to enjoy a safe ride with strong sensations.
Le Carrousel is designed as an open book, revelling in nature and the senses — a contemporary odyssey to create unforgettable memories of playful fun and marine dreams.
