The second resort located in
the middle of Kuramathi island, the Kuramathi Cottages & Spa is a
health-oriented holiday destination.
On arrival at the reception in
Kuramathi Village, you are taken by minibus to a heavily vegetated
and secluded resort, scented by the aroma of frangipani, hibiscus
and other flora and fauna indigenous to the Maldives archipelago.
A tropical
island in a blue sea, with waving palms and cascades of beautiful
exotic flowers. Kuramathi Island is a beautiful resort where seekers
of paradise escaping the pressures and cares of the world can get
away and forget the outside world. This lush green garden bursting
with scented frangipanis, delicate hibiscus, bougainvillea and
morning glory offers you a glimpse of the Garden of Eden. A
gardener's dream and the ideal holiday retreat.
Kuramathi
has retained its natural beauty and is the only island resort to
offer a choice of three different places to stay. It is larger than
most island resorts-over one kilometre in length-and the three
discreet locations each with its own unique character and charm.
They are all carefully laid out and spaced so that you might never
know the others existed. Wander the narrow winding paths lined with
thick foliage that snake their way across the island. Gaze up into
the ancient banyan tree and spy the cranes nesting in the topmost
branches. Drift along sandy white beaches and dip your toes in the
water to cool off on a balmy hot day, or turn to catch the cooling
sea breezes. Only then might you chance upon one of the other
resorts: Kuramathi Village, Cottage & Spa or Blue Lagoon.
The
speedboat or seaplane brings you to the main jetty of Kuramathi
Village where you step ashore and leave the rest of the world behind
you. Step into the main reception hall for a few minutes to rest,
enjoy a cool drink and freshen up with a cold towel. From here on
we'll take care of everything.
Indian
Restaurant
Apart from
the main restaurant an Indian Restaurant opens for dinner
and a 24 hours Coffee Shop where you have the choice of eating out
side sitting under the palm trees or if you like to sit inside while
enjoying the very Maldivian style interior. You can order from
breakfast to prime cuts of meat and from snacks to ice cream. If
you prefer a light snack for your lunch visit to Palm Court, an open
air restaurant in the middle of the island among the palm trees over
looking the lagoon of Kuramathi.
Island
Barbeque
located in
Kuramathi Village. This grill is open for dinner, situated on the
beach just few feets away from the shore. Enjoy the beautiful
scenery and fresh air from the ocean while you judge your plate.
Selected flambé dishes and prime cuts of meat and seafood dishes are
available
Thai
Restaurant
Situated
in the lush vegetation of the island is definitely a place you must
visit for a dinner at least once. With a variety of authentic
dishes, you will be able to enjoy wonderful Thai food in a beautiful
Thai setting.
La
Laguna Grill
Situated
at the very edge of the beach overlooking the huge lagoon of
Kuramathi is a very popular place. It's the perfect place to enjoy
that special occasion by candlelight. At La Laguna Grill, guests are
offered an excellent a la carte menu including prime cuts of meat,
chicken and seafood that is prepared in front you by the grill. The
speciality is the sizzling steak.
