Coco Palm Maldives
Dhuni Kolhu Luxury

Resort

Coco Palm Maldives Dhuni Kolhu island is an award winning five star resort.

At the 12th World Travel Awards in 2005 the Coco Palm Maldives Dhuni Kolhu resort was awarded...

First prize in the categories Indian Ocean Leading Resort and Maldives Leading Resort.

So you're in good company when you stay at the Coco Palm Maldives on the Dhuni Kolhu island.

Ideal For…

This Coco Palm is popular with couples and honeymooners wanting a natural island setting and first-rate hospitality and service.

Kick off your shoes and unwind is all that’s asked of you… the rest is taken care of by the attentive staff and the glorious surroundings and that includes your villa!

Coco Palm Maldives Dhuni Kolhu Overview

Here’s where it’s a bit tricky… There are in fact two separate Coco Palm resorts in the Maldives (as well as Coco Palms in other countries and a Cocoa Island in the Maldives) which can be confusing.

To keep it simple we’ll refer to each by its full (and often, lesser used) name; in this case. Coco Palm Maldives Dhuni Kolhu.

Coco Palm Maldives 03 This Coco Palm Maldives is on the Dhuni Kolhu Island and lies in the Baa Atoll due west of Malé International Airport. It’s about a 30 minute flight by seaplane and remember that transfers are only made by seaplane.

Seaplanes transfers aren’t used at night…

So if you’re ever delayed or arrive after sunset at Malé International Airport you’ll stay overnight in Malé until the morning for a flight out to the island. This goes for any seaplane travel to any resort.

Don’t forget to have your camera ready for some Maldives pictures especially if it’s a clear day when you fly in.

The island is shaped like a flattened teardrop with a white circle of sand enveloping the lush tropical centre of the island. The lagoon is broader and wider at the “tail end” yet shallow all round the island.

Coco Palm Maldives Dhuni Kolhu Accommodation

There are 98 villas throughout the island and its waters. Discreetly set among the trees you wouldn’t think there were that many. The water villas of course curve out from the island and greet you as your seaplane comes into land.

You’ll be pleased to know that all the villas and rooms come with private garden or terrace, open-air bathroom with shower, personal safe, mini bar, tea and coffee facilities, hairdryer (you may of course prefer to bring your own I know Charley does). IDD telephone, air-conditioning and ceiling.

You have a choice of...

Maldives Hotel 02 courtesy of Soneva Gili Beach Villas, Deluxe Beach Villas and lagoon villas all offering the above facilities.

The Lagoon Palace Suite has a spacious bedroom and living room, private terrace with a sunken plunge pool.

The bathroom with deluxe spa bath has an ocean view with complete privacy.

You also have available, to ease the burden of island living in the twenty first century… an espresso machine, CD player, VCD and television as well as all the facilities provided in the other villas.

The Sunset Lagoon Villa is as spacious as the Lagoon Palace with the addition of a fresh water plunge pool, butler and in-villa spa treatments on request.

You can relax with a drink at the The Lagoon Bar or Conch Bar on Dhuni Kolhu...

Or you can shop ‘til you drop at the Dhuni Kolhu boutique and gift centre then relax with a Mandara Spa complete with treatments that are imbued with historic Asian health and beauty traditions… I’m relaxed just writing about it!

Maldives Restaurant curtesy of Soneva Gili 01 The daily excursions by boat include dolphin watching and island picnics. Check when you book with your chosen travel agent which excursions come with your Maldives vacation package and those you will have to pay for separately.

Excursions are on a first come first serve basis so always try to book on arrival.

Coco Palm Maldives Dhuni Kolhu Specialities

Why not a picnic on a desert island? Dropped off late morning with your hamper full of food for your castaway day… a cool box with white wine and water to quench the thirst… sit beneath a palm in the shade of gently swaying fronds, dappled sunlight and sand as fine as flour.

The only sound a cork popping heard above the lapping of the waves… You’ll have the run of the island until late afternoon when a speedboat returns to collect you both. Take your snorkel and mask with you and sun lotion of course.

Coco Palm Maldives Dhuni Kolhu can arrange traditional Maldivian wedding ceremonies for couples either renewing their vows or wishing to experience a wedding celebration in tropical surroundings.

You can also enjoy open-air cinema for two at night under the stars with Champagne watching an old classic...

Phil will tell you that this is a peachy way of spending the evening...

He’s a bit of a movie fan and has sat in a roofless converted barn in the Kenyan desert watching kung fu movies with 400 others and in the back of coffee houses in New Zealand watching the best of NZ film on a whitewashed garden wall with banana trees for company.

Hmm… Anything else catch your eye?

The Luxury Beach Villas on Dhuni Kolhu are popular mainly because of their proximity to the house reef for the snorkellers among you.
