Makunudu

Makunudu is a beautiful original Maldivian retreat -often described as an ‘intimate hideaway’.

From snorkelling in the house reef to free introductory diving lessons, the resort has an abundance of dive sites to explore.

There is also windsurfing, waterskiing or night fishing on a traditional dhoni in the company of local fishermen.

Couples can also enjoy a sunset cruise or a private champagne lunch on a secluded sandbank, and for those wishing to re-affirm their commitment to one another, there is the opportunity to exchange vows on the beach, with Maldivian traditions such as the beat of local ‘bodu beru’ drums.
