Boutique Maldives & Sri Lanka Holiday
A classic Sri Lanka and Maldives holiday with unique cultural experiences and beautiful boutique hotels throughout.
One of the few (if not the only) resorts to maintain that original Maldivian 'Robinson Crusoe' appeal, Makanudu offers a dazzling setting coupled with outstanding service and simple but luxurious and spacious rooms.
Eschewing the bells and whistles of the super-luxury resorts, Makunudu trades on the fact that there are so few bungalows and the simplicity is turned into a great virtue.
With only 30 rooms, Makunudu has fewer guests at any one time than almost all the other islands and far less than any in a remotely similar price category. Returning guests mention the high-quality service and the friendly, intimate atmosphere. On such a small island the choice of eating is limited, but the emphasis on local cuisine and the set menu evening meals provide excellent options for all those of a (mildly) adventurous culinary bent.
The house reef is also excellent, and there are many fantastic dive sites nearby. We suspect it will not remain as gloriously untouched and untampered with for too much longer!
Makunudu is situated in the North Male Atoll and is a 55-minute speedboat from Male.
Superior - This is what we would describe as our standard category. These will be decent 3/4* hotels providing a really good level of service. We would generally expect them to be providing a little something extra, in terms of character, guest experience or facilities too.
Include this hotel as part of your Experience Travel Holiday of a lifetime.
