Kuramathi Village
Ari Atoll
RO/BB/HB/FB/AI
7nts from £949
Kuramathi has retained its natural beauty and is the only island resort to offer a choice of three different places to stay. It is larger than most island resorts - over one kilometre in length - and the three discreet locations, each with its own unique character and charm, are all carefully laid out and spaced so that you might never know the others existed. Kuramathi is a stunning tropical island in a blue sea, with waving palms and cascades of beautiful exotic flowers. Wander the narrow winding paths lined with thick foliage that wind their way across the island. Drift along sandy white beaches and dip your toes in the water to cool off on a balmy hot day, or turn to catch the cooling sea breezes. The speedboat or seaplane brings you to the main jetty of Kuramathi Village where you step ashore and leave the rest of the world behind you. Step into the main reception hall for a few minutes to rest, enjoy a cool drink and freshen up with a cold towel.

La Laguna Grill

La Laguna Grill is situated at the very edge of the beach overlooking the huge lagoon of Kuramathi and is a very popular eating place.

This is the perfect place to keep up your fitness levels while you are on holiday. If you want to burn off some fat or build more muscle why not use the gymnasium, which has modern fitness equipment. If you prefer to use some time practicing tennis there is a flood lit tennis court, which it is better to book in advance as there is big competition for the court among the players. To relax after your tennis practice session or after training in the gym the resort beauticians are available for a relaxing massage.  Alternatively, treat yourself to a facial or a manicure or pedicure.

Excursions and island hopping are perfect opportunities to visit nearby and faraway islands, either to get a taste of the native island culture of Maldives or for a deserted barbecue on an uninhabited island.  It's a ten minute journey by boat to the neighbouring island of Rasdhu, where you can spend two hours exploring  the island or shopping in the several souvenir shops. The Resort offers a full day excursion when guests will have the opportunity to see three different islands and enjoy a barbecue lunch and great snorkelling. First stop will be a local island about one hour boat ride from Kuramathi. This island is home to a Maldivian fishing and farming community. You will have the chance to stroll around the island and meet some Maldivians. Next stop will be a resort island where you can relax, swim or go snorkelling.  Last stop will be an uninhabited island where you will be served a barbecue lunch, which is cooked over an open fire.

 

Snorkelling Safari

Enjoy a couple of hours snorkelling in some of the best coral reefs in the area. On this trip you can visit three different reefs and you can compare how different these three reefs are. You will also be accompanied by a Marine Biologist who is very keen to answer your questions and explain about the sub aqua world and amazing coral reef.

 

Deep sea fishing

A specially adapted boat for big game fishing can take up to five people, the cost of the trip being divided among the people on board. There are three options to choose from: the morning session between 5.00-10.00 am, the afternoon session between 2.00-6.00 pm, or you can go for the full day's fishing between 5.00 am-5.00 pm.
