Kurumba Maldives is set on a tropical island in the North Male’ atoll conveniently a brief 10 minute speed boat ride away from the airport. Dotted with coconut trees that are the island’s namesake, Kurumba was the first private island resort in the Maldives. Lush tropical gardens, white sandy beaches and a vibrant house reef are the hallmarks of this classic Maldivian resort.

(TRAVPR.COM) MALDIVES - July 29th, 2013 - Kurumba’s Food and Beverage district just got even better, with added options to dine Al Fresco.
