About Allegria

Allegria takes you from the Maldives to the Mediterranean. As for the open kitchen, it lets you take a peek at the chefs busying behind the stoves. Italian cuisine truly is the ultimate comfort food. Dinner is served on our gorgeous deck, and right on the beach. And if you’d like an intimate, private dinner table, we’ll arrange that. Maybe it’s the quality of the ingredients or the skills of our chefs, but Allegria really hits a sweet spot.
