CROSSROADS Maldives restaurants’ Kinkao, Kebab & Kurry and Hard Rock Café Maldives has been recognised as a 2021 Travellers’ Choice award winner in the world.

This achievement celebrates businesses that consistently deliver fantastic experiences to diners around the globe, having earned great traveller reviews on Tripadvisor over the last 12 months.

As challenging as the past year was, CROSSROADS Maldives restaurants Kinkao, Kebab & Kurry and Hard Rock Cafe Maldives stood out by continuously delighting diners.

“Congratulations to all the winners of the 2021 Travellers’ Choice Awards,” Kanika Soni, Chief Commercial Officer at Tripadvisor, said.

“I know the past year has been extremely challenging for tourism businesses. What has impressed me is how businesses adapted to these challenges, implementing new cleanliness measures, adding social distancing guidelines, and utilising technology to prioritise guest safety. The Travellers’ Choice Awards highlight the places that are consistently excellent — delivering quality experiences time and time again even while navigating changing customer expectations and new ways of working. Based on a full year of reviews from customers, this award speaks to the great service and experience you provided guests in the midst of a pandemic.”
