Lhaviyani Luxury & Local Gem

Your Maldives adventure starts as you land at Velana International Airport in Male. A local representative will greet you and guide you to a shared speedboat for the short ride to Arena Hotel on Hulhumale. After checking into your Standard room on a bed and breakfast basis, the remainder of the day is free to settle in. You can take a gentle walk along the nearby beach or simply watch the sunset over the lagoon. The calm sea breeze promises a restful first night.

Following breakfast at Arena Hotel, enjoy a full day to discover Hulhumale at your own pace. Your representative can arrange an optional guided walk to the community mosque, the local market, and the popular artificial beach. For water lovers, a snorkelling trip to a nearby reef is available to see turtles and colourful fish. You might also simply relax at a beachfront cafe with a fresh coconut. The island’s friendly, laid‑back atmosphere invites leisurely wandering. Return to the hotel for another comfortable night on bed and breakfast.

After breakfast, you have two enticing choices. You can take a public ferry to Male, the bustling capital, and visit the Grand Friday Mosque, the fish market, and the Sultan Park. Alternatively, book a boat trip to a remote sandbank where you can swim, snorkel, and enjoy a picnic surrounded by turquoise waters. Whichever you pick, the warm sunshine and crystal sea will be your companions. Return to Arena Hotel by late afternoon. The evening is free for a casual seafood dinner near the shore.

Breakfast fuels a day of fun and relaxation. Near the hotel, you can try optional water activities such as jet skiing, kayaking, or paddleboarding. For a taste of local culture, visit Hulhumale Central Park or take a short trip to a traditional fishing village. In the afternoon, you might book a sunset fishing excursion – a classic Maldivian experience using hand lines. As the sun dips below the horizon, you can try to catch your own dinner or simply enjoy the colours. Return to Arena Hotel for a quiet evening and your final night on the local island.

After breakfast and checkout from Arena Hotel, your local representative will assist you with a shared seaplane transfer to Kuredu Island Resort. The scenic flight offers breathtaking aerial views of scattered atolls, reefs, and deep blue ocean. You arrive at the resort by late morning and check into your Premium Beach Bungalow on a full board basis – breakfast, lunch, and dinner are included. Step directly onto the powdery sand from your bungalow and take your first swim in the warm lagoon. A welcome drink and orientation help you settle into island time.

Start your day with a generous breakfast before joining a guided snorkelling excursion to the resort’s house reef. You will glide over vibrant corals and encounter turtles, reef sharks, and a rainbow of tropical fish. After a buffet lunch, spend the afternoon relaxing on your private beach, reading in a hammock, or trying optional kayaking and paddleboarding. The resort also offers a spa for those seeking ultimate relaxation. Dinner features international and Maldivian dishes, followed by a peaceful night in your beach bungalow.

After a leisurely breakfast, enjoy the resort’s facilities – you can take a guided nature walk, play tennis, or simply sunbathe on the endless white sand. In the late afternoon, a local guide will take you on a sunset cruise. Watch as the sky turns shades of gold, orange, and purple over the calm Indian Ocean. Dolphins often appear to play alongside the boat. After returning, a farewell dinner buffet awaits at the main restaurant. You spend your final night in the Premium Beach Bungalow, listening to the gentle waves.
