Great food and many options! Wonderful location and service overall.

Incredible experience, the room was perfect, everything was nice. The location is awesome, I had the opportunity to interact with the locals and experience fully the place. The beach is incredible, very good place to rest and relax, I will definitely come back 💯👍

The best staff/service, hospitality is on another level and villa is stunning.

The hotel exceeded our expectations! It’s particularly important that the island itself is beautiful, unlike many other budget islands. The journey from Malé takes about 3 hours by boat, but it’s definitely worth it. There’s a large beach with truly white sand and crystal-clear turquoise water, surrounded by lush tropical vegetation. The hotel provides a private spot on the beach with loungers and umbrellas. We were practically alone on our part of the beach and rarely saw other guests. This island is perfect for snorkeling due to its abundance of coral reefs. Snorkeling gear (masks, snorkels, and fins) is available at the hotel. The staff is hospitable and caring, and the overall atmosphere is warm and homely despite the hotel’s modest size. Delicious breakfasts are included in the price, offering two types: a local breakfast featuring tuna and flatbreads, and a classic option with toast and sausages. Both breakfasts come with fried eggs, fresh fruit, and tea. Lunch can be purchased separately and is tasty and affordable. On our final day, the hotel surprised us with a complimentary candlelit dinner on the beach.

Onu Marche restaurant is the best—there is an absolutely new, huge, and super tasty menu every day. Each day we received a message from our Island host Olga about the new menu at Onu Marche restaurant. The WiFi free version was stable and speedy. The staff is very responsive but not annoying. We had a beach villa (sunset view) - it was super comfortable, clean and beautiful. The place is super friendly for kids.

The best thing about Kuredu is the food quality and diversity in the buffet restaurants (we didn’t try the à-la-carte restaurants, no need for this). The second best was the staff attitude, everyone was always smiling and being ready to help, any wish one might have. The third best was the diving centre, which offers great facilities and service, all guides were great. It’s quite pricey but that’s Maldives. We had the lowest room category, garden bungalow, which was completely adequate for us, as we spent most of the time outside (or under water 😉). There are better positions (even of garden bungalows) that we had, with direct view to the ocean, but we enjoyed ours nevertheless. The room attendant was very good and kept it clean and orderly all the time. The WiFi worked pretty smoothly, although there are places on the island where it doesn’t work, and it would be very helpful, for instance in the diving centre. The nature around is beautiful, all island is green (except for the beaches) and quite a few animals to be observed on land. In the water, sea turtles are a staple, and one can easily see sharks and other fish, simply by snorkelling in the lagune (very easy even for complete beginners) or in the house reef (a bit more challenging). It was probably not the season, I didn’t see many rays though (even by diving three times a day). Finally, the main reason we had chosen Kuredu was the golf course (my husband’s goal is to play in as many countries as possible, Maldives was 153rd). It’s pretty basic (6 short pitch and put holes) but it served the purpose. He didn’t want to play a second round though. They have night golf a few times a week (I think Tue, Thu, Sat and Sun), which is very helpful as it’s very hot during the day. The resort itself is very big and offers many activities that we didn’t have the time and energy to explore: tennis, football, badminton, volley, fitness centre, yoga classes, water aerobics (maybe also others but I can’t remember).

Hurawalhi Island Resort is a dreamy vacation destination, where everything from the breathtaking sea-and-sky views to the attentive service exceeds expectations. Though it’s a bit far from the main island, this sense of seclusion is precisely what makes it so charming. After arriving by seaplane, the sight of pristine white sandy beaches and turquoise waters left me in awe. The water villa we stayed in was private and comfortable. Lying on the private terrace gazing at the starry sky felt like time had stopped. You could even jump straight into the sea—what an incredible experience! The dining options here are impressive. The buffet at Canneli Restaurant offers a wide variety, while Kashibo is a must-try for its authentic and delicious flavors. The highlight, though, is the 5.8 Undersea Restaurant—the world’s largest all-glass underwater restaurant. Eating gourmet food while watching schools of fish swim by felt like being in an underwater world. Snorkeling was thrilling—we saw sea turtles, small sharks, and even a shipwreck! They also offer diving courses and dolphin cruises, perfect for adventure lovers. The infinity pool overlooking the ocean was ideal for lounging in the sun with a cocktail in hand—pure relaxation. Our personal butler was incredibly attentive, arranging our itinerary and restaurant bookings, making our entire holiday effortless and relaxing. The service team was impeccable, greeting us warmly upon arrival and providing thoughtful care throughout, always with a smile that made us feel right at home. Though the price is steep, the top-notch facilities, cuisine, and unique experiences make it worth every penny. I’d especially recommend it for honeymooners or couples celebrating an anniversary.
