Park Hyatt Hadahaa Maldives- Hotel Review

Located in North Huvadhoo, one of the largest natural atolls in the world, Park Hyatt Hadahaa luxury Maldives resort is a haven with natural white beach, azure lagoon and a 360° house reef steps away from each water villa.

‘If you’re looking for laid-back island luxury, then a stay at the Park Hyatt Hadahaa is highly recommended. It might not have the party atmosphere of some resorts, but the stunningly beautiful scenery and endless opportunities to relax make up for it.’- Luxury Lifestyle Magazine.

Accommodation

With 50 villas at the resort (36 land villas and 14 villas suspended over the ocean), they spent four nights in a Park Pool Villa, lounging on the wooden deck and making the most of the private pool.

Land villas boast indoor and outdoor bathrooms, the latter fitted with an enormous stone bath (with bath salts provided) and a rainfall shower. Toiletries are provided in glass bottles by Le Labo, the chic New York perfumery known for their personalised scents.

The 14 Park Water Villas are dotted along a wooden jetty, each one suspended over the ocean. The rooms are slightly smaller than their dry land counterparts, but all offer 180-degree views of the glassy shallows and direct access to the house reef. For the best sunset views request villa 51 – it has uninterrupted views of the horizon.

Food

There are three restaurants on the island; the Dining Room, where you’ll eat the majority of your meals; the relaxed Island Grill, with tables and chairs perched on the sand; and The Drift, the resorts most exclusive restaurant which overlooks the ocean.

Four different meal plans are offered at the resort. The most comprehensive is the Premium All-Inclusive package (an add-on of USD 300 per adult per night) which includes a private beach dinner, all meals (including dinner at The Drift) and a selection of alcoholic beverages from The Bar. The Maldives is a Muslim country and alcohol is illegal outside of tourist resorts, so if you’re partial to holiday cocktails opt for an alcohol inclusive package.

The Bar overlooks the main pool and is a great spot for an evening drink before shimmying across to the Dining Room for dinner. Highlights from the menu include the vegetarian Indian Thali and the creamy coconut Maldivian Kukulhu curry.

Activities

Snorkelling is a must when you’re in the Maldives and equipment is provided free of charge. A lively reef surrounds the island, where you can see parrotfish, sharks and majestic stingrays. Look out for Ben, a friendly turtle who lives on the reef.

Scuba Diving and most water-based activities are provided by on-island dive centre, Blue Journeys. Don’t miss the Turtle Quest (USD 150 per person) where you’ll help a marine biologist collect crucial population data on the species.

At Park Hyatt’s Vedhun Spa, there are five couple treatment rooms and they enjoyed a deeply relaxing Sehathu massage, a signature treatment with calming essential oils.
