Kuredu Resort Maldives enhances All-Inclusive Gold package
Kuredu Resort Maldives has enhanced its All-Inclusive Gold package.
“For the variety of choices it allows, the All-Inclusive Gold package is a popular meal plan at Kuredu. Its inclusions extend far beyond the ‘unlimited drinks’ concept most commonly found at resorts,” an announcement read.
“We’ve designed ours in a way that enables you to experience Kuredu’s numerous dining and activity options to ensure you make the most of your precious holiday time in the Maldives.”
The benefits included in the enhanced package mostly relate to the ‘dine around Kuredu’ option. In addition to access to all four buffet restaurants and all bars, guests, regardless of the room category, can also go for a late breakfast to Franco’s, delight in an afternoon snack menu, revel in cuisine at the three a la carte restaurants (Franco’s, Beach Shack, The Far East) with a 50 percent discount – and even have lunch or dinner there once a day at no extra cost – and have unlimited pizzas, burgers and ice-cream during specified times.
The selection of drinks is enormous too! Apart from the must-have water, soft drinks, beer, and red, white and rosé house wine at restaurants and bars, guests will love the long menu of cocktails, mocktails and smoothies. Minibar is also stocked with beverages and snacks daily, while red, white and rosé from the wine fridge are guests to enjoy too as is a bottle of sparkling wine delivered to the room.
On the activities front, guests are invited to play a round of golf, sign up for an introduction dive, hop on a sunset cruise boat, attend a group windsurfing lesson, use snorkelling equipment and bikes at no extra cost, practise yoga and be active with some non-motorised water sports. Guests can also block 60 minutes of their time for one of the relaxing Duniye Spa treatments from the special menu too!
Located on a 1,800 metre by 325 metre remote island in the northern atoll of Lhaviyani, Kuredu is accessible by a 35-minute scenic seaplane flight from the main Velana International Airport. This 4.5-star resort has 383 rooms, including beach and water villas, making it the second largest resort in the Maldives.
The island boasts a dive and snorkel centre, a water sports centre, a spa, golf and tennis courses, a kids’ club, and an extensive choice of restaurants and bars. Kuredu guests can also dine in 5.8 Undersea Restaurant at the neighbouring Hurawalhi Maldives resort.
