Siting guests across 90 beach and oceanfront villas on and around its own private island, this new Maldivian resort posits barefoot bliss in paradisiacal setting. Accessible to adults only, your typical array of water sports and wellness activities abound, with additional enrichment coming in the guise of the Hurawalhi Marine Biology Centre, where a resident specialist expounds on the natural diversity present in Hurawalhi’s waters. The aquatic wonder continues in the resort’s 5.8 Undersea restaurant, located almost 6 metres below the water’s surface within a vast glass tube.
