Park Hyatt Maldives Hadahaa announces Stay and Dive package

Park Hyatt Maldives Hadahaa has announced a new Stay and Dive package, giving guests the chance to explore one of the Maldives’ best-preserved atolls at a reduced rate with fantastic complimentary benefits.
With this new package, guests booking before December 15 for a stay of four nights between March 1, 2018 and December 15, 2018, can enjoy a complimentary orientation dive, unlimited unguided house reef dives as well as complimentary dive luggage allowance for domestic flights. Those staying for six nights or more during the same period will experience all of these benefits plus a six-dive package with the hotel’s Blue Journeys dive team.
Tucked away from the teeming resorts of the dense northern atolls on a private island in Gaafu Alif Atoll, Park Hyatt Maldives Hadahaa has more than 30 pristine dive sites to explore, all filled with rich marine life, including resident turtles and black-tip sharks. Diving enthusiasts will be spoilt at Park Hyatt Maldives Hadahaa as the resort boasts pristine waters, owing to its ongoing conservation efforts, which include banning motorised water sports and coral reef monitoring.
“Guests can spend their days either discovering the sea creatures and aquatic life with unguided dives in the stunning house reef or on supervised dives with one of the resort’s professional divers, exploring the underwater world and its kaleidoscopes of colours and towering corals. Those wanting to give back on their holiday can also join the Park Hyatt team in their bi-weekly house reef clean up to ensure the marine life stays in fantastic condition,” an announcement by the resort read.
“With spectacular marine life, luxury accommodation, delicious gourmet offerings and five-star service combined with this new dive package, there has never been a better time to make 2018 the year to eat, sleep, dive, repeat with Park Hyatt Maldives Hadahaa.”
The new package comes as Park Hyatt Maldives Hadahaa gears up for the launch of two new luxury villa categories, including the resort’s first two-bedroom family villas and more villas with private pools.
Park Hyatt Maldives Hadahaa currently features 16 Park Villas and 20 Park Pool Villas, seven Park Water Villas and seven Park Water Sunset Villas. The resort offers luxurious amenities, a host of recreational activities, and relaxing and rejuvenating treatments.
Since the five-star resort welcomed its first guests in 2009, it has undergone serval refurbishments to offer guests the ultimate luxury Maldivian experience.
Stay and Dive package at Park Hyatt Maldives Hadahaa is USD 550 per villa per night, based on double occupancy on a B&B basis.
