The Island Hideaway offers privacy and tranquility situated in the Haa Alif and Haa Dhaalu Atolls of the North Maldives. A boutique haven on the uninhabited crescent shaped virgin island of Dhonakulhi, it is enveloped by a dazzling waist deep lagoon, stretching as far as the eye can see. Inland, coconut, and banana trees and uniquely bushy vegetation cover the island. Making the most of its privileged location above a split reef, the resort is home to the first state-of-the-art marina in the Maldives where up to 20 20-berth yachts can be warmly welcomed. Something of a rustic celebration of nature, 43 thatched roof beach and water villas discreetly set along the beach feature luxury rustic interiors of custom made, hand finished natural materials. Whether of the ocean or lagoon, the views are divine. Some villas have private pools. The 24 hour in-villa dining service delivers exceptional cuisine to your villa. Or enjoy romantic dinners in other mesmerising settings such as Matheefaru, serving an exquisite international menu with stunning sunrise views. If Dhonakulhi own house reef 10 to 30 metres away isn’t enough, there are over 20 untouched dive sites within five to 60 minutes of this wonderful resort.
