Travelling to the Maldives has always been a dream of mine; my partner was never interested in going on holiday to the Maldives, he always said he would be bored and lying on the beach was not something he could ever see himself doing. After four years of persistent pestering I manage to persuade my partner to book the holiday, we travelled to the Maldives for the first time in august 2001. We stayed at the Maldives Island Lohifushi which was renamed in November 2006 to Hudhuranfushi under new ownership of the company named Adaaran. We flow to the Maldives Islands with Monarch airlines, on approaching the Maldives the pilot banked the plan left and for the first time I had a glimpse of the islands. Wow, it was like a cluster of gems dropped into the Indian Ocean, the turquoise colours were breath taking and every one on the plane went silent with the amazing views.
Hudhuranfushi means "Island of White Gold" it is one of the largest of the Maldives Islands with fantastic soft white sand's, surrounded by the warm crystal clear waters of the Indian Ocean. This making Hudhuranfushi or any of the Maldives Islands a favourite to sun seeking worshippers and for those who love to explore under the water. The Island is covered with a lush green landscape which is well looked after night and day, ideal for walking and taking in the wildlife.
One of the many things I love about Hudhuranfushi is the ability to walk anywhere you want to on the island, what I mean is on some of the Maldives islands we have visited you have to stick to a path i.e. a walkway. With Hudhuranfushi you get the real Robinson Crusoe feeling that you are in paradise, not the commercial driven effect that some of the other Maldives islands will give you. We have been to Hudhuranfushi three times and people we have met who have also been to other islands in the Maldives have also found this same situation and this is why they also are frequent visitors of Hudhuranfushi.
