The Island Hideaway at Dhonakulhi Maldives, Spa Resort & Marina is a new luxury boutique resort situated on the privately-owned uninhabited virgin island of Dhonakulhi, North Maldives, Indian Ocean. The resort was opened on 1st August 2005 with 6 types of spectacular guest villas. The marina is the first of its kind in the Maldives. The Island is a haven of peace, tranquillity and serenity. The Island Hideaway is the only resort in the entire Haa Alif and Haa Dhaalu Atolls of the North Maldives.
Dhonakulhi is a physically large crescent-shaped island with a beach length of some 1.4 kilometres on each side, a width of 500 metres and land area of 234,000 square metres. The crystal clear turquoise waters of the shallow waist-deep lagoon surrounding the Island stretch as far as the eye can see.
The Island is unique in its reef formation, the reef system it sits on having a natural channel splitting it in two distinct parts, and thereby forming a natural harbour for the marina. In addition to coconut trees, banana trees and rubber-tree-like vegetation, the Island is covered by uniquely rich dense bushy vegetation.
Island Hideway now has a brand new "Hideaway Junior Program" for children from 4 years up. It's aim, as well as entertaining the children, is to educate them on the importance of preserving the environment - after a 15 minute briefing the group spends 30 minutes under the water being shown the coral with it's Young Marine Biologist group (min age 8). The Young Environmentalists walk around the island and a learn about the various trees (min. age 4), whilst the budding chefs can gain a Young Chef's Certificate (min. age 5), where the children (after a health and hygene briefing) bake chocolate cake, prepare shushi and serve the food to their parents at dinner!
