Review & FAQ:
Hulhumale sits north of Malé and the airport, which it is connected to by a causeway. It is essentially an extension of Malé proper. Hulhumalé is a manmade island – coral and sand were dug up from the lagoon and laid across the top of the reef, forming about a 1.8 square kilometer island. The project was set in motion in 1997 to relieve some of the population growth occurring on Malé. Guests will be able to enjoy an authentic Maldivian dining experience with a local family or take a trip out to the local reef for some snorkeling and afterward enjoy some Maldivian tea on the sandbank.
