Hurawalhi Maldives Resort

Vasundhara Brusca

my husband and i came here on our honeymoon and i don’t have the words to express how perfect our experience was from beginning to end. from the moment we grabbed our bags, we were seamlessly escorted by a hurawalhi staff member who helped check our bags in for the sea plane transfer and guided us to the lounge, which was beautiful and offered complimentary food/beverages and a beautiful viewing deck where you could watch sea planes take off and land. the sea plane experience was exceptional - getting a birds eye view of the stunning atolls throughout maldives was such a special treat. after the plane landed, we had a 5 minute speed boat ride to the resort in which we got cold towels. they greeted us at the dock and the check-in process was seamless (we did most of it on the hurawalhi app while in the lounge waiting for our sea plane). we were given a tour by our incredible island host, Yum, who escorted us to the single most beautiful room i have ever stayed in. from this moment onwards, we had the most perfect time with mind blowing hospitality, the BEST food and drinks, and the best and most unique excursions. the undersea restaurant is a must!! tushar and his team, haskko and ruwindi, and the executive chef and his whole team made us feel at home every single day. this was the first vacation i’ve ever taken where i was near tears when it came time to leave. we can’t wait to be back one day. i don’t have a single piece of feedback or complaint, hurawalhi exceeded all of our expectations. it’s been a few days since we left and we still can’t stop thinking about the staff and our experience. thank you all for the honeymoon and the trip of a lifetime, we will never forget it :’)

An absolutely unforgettable and perfect experience from start to finish! Our honeymoon at Hurawalhi Island Resort exceeded every possible expectation. From the moment we landed until the very last second, we were immersed in a truly magical atmosphere. The landscapes are breathtaking, the weather was spectacular, and the ocean water—always at a warm, idyllic temperature—felt like a dream. The range of activities is fantastic and ensures every single day is unique, whether exploring the reef or simply unwinding. The gastronomy is divine: delicious, exceptionally high-quality dishes paired with incredible cocktails crafted to perfection. However, the true heart of Hurawalhi is its team. The genuine warmth and friendliness of everyone—from the staff across all departments to the ever-present Managers—made us feel truly special. Two very special mentions that made this trip unforgettable: • Zayan (Our Host): Relentless from the first minute to the last! He welcomed us like family, gave us the best recommendations, always available, stood out for his excellent, highly communicative, knowledgeable and genuine nature. An extraordinary professional and human being. • Zohan (Housekeeping): Congratulations on your flawless work. Your consistency, meticulous attention to detail, dedication, and discretion ensured our villa was always perfect. We will definitely be back. We are already counting down the days until we return to paradise!

Our 5th stay at Hurawalhi – and we already know we’ll be back! ❤️🌴 For the fifth time, we have had the privilege of spending our most beautiful time of the year at Hurawalhi – and we have already decided that we will be coming back next year. Every single year, this little island manages to amaze us all over again. But what makes Hurawalhi truly special to us is not only the breathtaking surroundings, the crystal-clear water or the incredible marine life – it’s the people. The entire team is unbelievably warm, kind and caring. Every single person goes above and beyond to make sure that you feel comfortable and that everything is taken care of. You can genuinely feel how much heart and passion everyone puts into their work. For us, these two weeks are the most wonderful time of the year. There is simply nowhere else where we can relax, switch off and feel as completely at peace as we do here. We would therefore like to say a huge thank you to the entire Hurawalhi team. If we could, we would mention every single person by name, because every member of the team plays an important part in making our stay so incredibly special. A very special thank you to our Island Hosts, Zayan & Naji. You once again made sure that everything throughout our holiday was perfectly organised and that everything ran smoothly. ❤️ The Housekeeping Team is absolutely outstanding! Our villa is taken care of twice a day and the level of cleanliness is truly incredible. It is very clear how much attention is paid to the highest standards – and we appreciate that so much. 🍸 A huge thank you to our amazing Bar Team – Casmir, Suranga, Sahan, Nimesh, Tulsa & Dilusha & everybody else. You make everything possible! Every cocktail is perfect and of the highest quality. You are incredibly fast, attentive, friendly and always so warm and welcoming. Thank you for making so many of our evenings special! 🍽️ The teams at Canelli and Kashibo are equally outstanding. A very special thank you and warmest regards to Barsha, Fazeel, Ayu, Palak, Mondi, Manoj, Harry & Conrad. You made every meal & wine an absolute pleasure. 👨‍🍳 And of course, a massive thank you to the incredible kitchen team led by Harshal & Murugan. You are true masters of your craft! We have eaten unbelievably well for two whole weeks – honestly, as well as we have anywhere in the world. Every meal was a highlight. And finally, a thousand thanks to all the people whose names we unfortunately don’t know – our boat crew, gardeners and everyone working behind the scenes. You are all an essential part of what makes Hurawalhi so special. Every single one of you contributes to making our holiday what it is, and we are incredibly grateful for that. ❤️ Five stays, countless unforgettable memories – and already looking forward to our sixth. Thank you, Hurawalhi, for making every stay feel like coming home. 🤍🌴 See you next year! 🥰

We spent our honeymoon at Hurawalhi Island Resort and thoroughly enjoyed the peace and privacy it offers. As an adults-only resort (16+), it was quiet and relaxing, especially during the off-peak season. There was always plenty of space on the beach, meal times were peaceful, and the resort app made it easy to view activities, menus, prices, and make bookings. A special mention goes to our host, Dinara, who helped make our honeymoon memorable. While she may not have had the most naturally warm personality, she consistently went above and beyond to make our honeymoon special by arranging thoughtful surprises and accommodations for us. She checked in regularly despite us requiring very little assistance, and we truly appreciated her efforts. The highlight of our stay was the Reef Safari excursion. Nico, the resident marine biologist, and Yan, our snorkelling guide, were fantastic. Their knowledge, professionalism, and attention to safety made the experience unforgettable. We saw hawksbill and green turtles, eagle rays, moray eels, pufferfish, and blacktip reef sharks while learning about the local marine ecosystem. We would also like to compliment Ruwindi and Suhail at Canneli. Ruwindi's warm smile and genuine hospitality brightened every meal, while Suhail was consistently polite, respectful, and helpful throughout our stay. The only slight disappointment was the Thursday Maldivian-themed dinner buffet, which felt expensive for the quality offered. Otherwise, Hurawalhi is a wonderful choice for couples seeking a peaceful and private honeymoon destination.
