Monday 25th of July 2022

Although Maldives has always been a tropical destination with temperate climates, it does get hot enough in this paradise to crave some cold drinks. After a day of snorkeling among the coral reefs and basking in the Sun, the perfect beverage to quench your thirst would be rich and creamy ice-cream that cools the nerves. Many resorts in the Maldives offer ice-cream parlors and here are some of the best resorts where you are assured to be not disappointed.

Another acclaimed ice-cream parlour belongs to Kuredhoo Resorts and spa with its delicious scoops at the Island Ice. In this resort, ice-creams are freshly made on demand by well-established chefs enticing guests with a tiny flex of culinary expertise before handing over the scoops. The island also serves a diverse range of flavours all passed in the taste tests which ensures that many guests will come back to try more and choose a favourite during their stay.

An ice-cream cannot be much without toppings and here at Kuredhoo the list goes endless. A little bit of chocolate chips or fudge and maybe some fruits like strawberry can complement your ice-cream. Or for those among you that are quite adventurous try the roasted coconut options with your ice-cream or even drizzle some thick caramel.

Soneva is crowned the king of ice-cream parlours in the Maldives with its extensive network of ice-cream parlours in all its resorts across the country. An eco-friendly resort at its heart, Soneva extends its green policies to ice-creams by using locally grown ingredients such as cold-pressed organic coconut oil and plant-based creams.

At Soneva Fushi, the So Cool ice-cream parlour features limited edition ice-creams such as sugar-free, plant based almond and rosemary, the perfect combination of nuts and herbs. Or if you are brave, you can try the bacon and mascarpone accompanied by crispy bacon providing a savoury flavour to your taste buds. The bonito pie is enriched with coconut and banana and comes with a mouth-watering toffee sauce dipping.

If you happen to be at Soneva Jani, prepare to venture into gluten-free and dairy-free ice creams like nicecream a marriage between coconut and cashew with turmeric and tamarind. If that’s not for you, opt for the peanut butter and dark chocolate with 72% dark chocolate incorporated with chunky bits of peanut butter and coconut cream.
