Hurawalhi Maldives has curated a sparkling Christmas programme of events and indulgences for guests to revel in the magic and wonder of the holidays.

The luxury resort will celebrate Christmas with a grand gala dinner at Canneli Restaurant, for which Executive Chef Warren Moore and his team have prepared an elaborate feast, with highlights being lobster, herb-crusted prime ribs, roast turkey, and sea urchin and mussels live stations. Desserts, including croquembouche, lavender raspberry cheesecake and Christmas pudding, will surely satisfy your sweet tooth.

The gala dinner will be followed by a beach party with Beat Band, where guests will have the chance to dance the calories away and mingle with the management.

“Guaranteeing long-lasting memories for you and your loved ones is undoubtedly ticking off some of Hurawalhi’s bucket list experiences: don’t leave the resort without experiencing the sunset dinner at 5.8 Undersea Restaurant, having an exclusive Dream Island picnic, joining a Discover Scuba Diving session, parasailing, wine tasting and Him & Her couples’ spa treatment,” an announcement by the resort read.

Officially inaugurated in January, the five-star Hurawalhi resort is accessible by a 40-minute scenic seaplane flight from the main airport, and offers 90 villas, including 60 Ocean Villas and 30 Beach Villas, for grown-ups who are seeking luxury and innovation. The villas are stylishly and beautifully conceived featuring soothing décor, sumptuous linens on king size beds, bleached wooden floors, and private terraces with panoramic views.

There is an ocean of delights to take in at Hurawalhi Maldives: dining at 5.8 Undersea Restaurant, snuggling up with your darling under a blanket or sparkling stars on the iconic Dream Island sandbank, falling in love with the plethora of marine life on the island’s doorstep – in fact, one visit to the resort is hardly enough to experience it all.
