Kudadoo is a small and exclusive island surrounded by a beautiful lagoon, alluring house reef and long stretches of white sandy beaches. A direct seaplane transfer flight is available from Velana international airport in which a 40-minute scenic flight awaits you as you fly over the clear waters of the sea and towards the island.

Once clearing the various immigration procedures, you will be greeted by the staff and escorted to the seaplane to be transferred to the seaplane terminal to be pampered until the seaplane departs for the island paradise.

Upon arrival, 13 ocean villas of 300 sqm (one bedroom) and two ocean villas of 380 sqm (two bedrooms) await you. Outfitted with a luxurious infinity pool, a glorious view of the sunset and sunrise along with a personal butler for all of your needs. Other rooms are available for accompanying personal and household staff should you require them. The ocean villas offer privacy, spaciousness and comfort for those that have been worn out from their busy work schedules or the hectic life of the cities. All of the villas feature the same contemporary design, the epitome of tropical chic with clean lines, earth tone colours and natural building materials which harmonize perfectly with the surrounding lush, landscaped vegetation on this unspoiled island.

 The rooms include:

• State-of-the-art electronics (54-inch TV & surround sound system)

A sanctuary for adults only, there are various activities available for them to unwind. Since the island is located in Lhaviyani Atoll, where a great abundance of marine life is present, the resort offers guests to see and snorkel up close with manta rays, turtles and other various ocean life. The resort boasts over 50 dive sites, with new ones being discovered on a regular basis. The in-house dive center runs single dive trips every morning and afternoon and regularly organizes two tank and full day trips to showcase the very best diving experience the Maldives has to offer. Other watersports activities include jet skis, paragliding, water-skiing, wake-boarding, paddle boarding, windsurfing, kayaks and catamarans.

If you feel that diving doesn’t suit your form of relaxation, you could opt to pamper yourself at the blissful over-water Duniye Spa. The Signature Maldivian Island Paradise Ritual Treatment is the ultimate indulgence. The 120 minute treatment indulges one from top to toe, leaving skin hydrated and hair nourished from the use of locally sourced 100% virgin coconut skin. After guests have been pampered to their heart’s content, they have the option of continuing to the “Tree Top Tranquility Lounge.” This haven offers yoga, meditation and sound healing sessions, the perfect environment for a soothing tea whilst overlooking the stunning vista of the tropical landscape and soothing turquoise sea below. There are also various treatments or therapies for couples as well, such as Full Moon Magic, Honeymoon Indulgence and Him and Her.
