Four Seasons Kuda Huraa, Maldives

Just 25 minutes by speedboat from Malé, this vibrant garden island captures the charm and intimacy of a traditional Maldivian village. Spread across 12 acres (5 hectares) of lush, exotic gardens blooming with bougainvillea, frangipani, and hibiscus, it offers a serene escape surrounded by natural beauty.

Four Seasons Maldives at Kuda Huraa provides easy access to world-class surf breaks as well as dive sites, with over 30 dive sites located less than 45 minutes away. The resort also features The Island Spa, the only spa in the Maldives located on its own separate island, accessed by a short dhoni ride.

Accommodation

Kuda Huraa’s 96 thatched beach and overwater accommodations were built by local craftsmen using traditional Maldivian materials and methods, creating an authentic island atmosphere. Beach Villas and Pavilions feature private gardens with their own plunge pools, while the Overwater Villas offer spacious sundecks and direct lagoon access along with a private pool.

The two- and three-bedroom Water Suites add even more indoor and outdoor living space, including a glass-walled pool for an elevated lagoon experience. The largest villa, the three-bedroom Kuda Estate, offers expansive dining and lounge areas and a 135 m² pool curving around the estate.
