We spent the final days of our honeymoon at Cinnamon Hakuraa Huraa. The island may be small, but it is beautifully maintained, spotlessly clean, and exudes a luxurious atmosphere.

This was our first time in the Maldives and it did not disappoint! Cinnamon hakuraa huraa exceeded all expectations! We stayed on the platinum island. Room was amazing felt so secluded and like our own private beach. Always clean, clean team did an excellent job. Food was aswell excellent and plentiful chefs did a great job daily, never did we go hungry or worry food wasn’t good enough. Staff in the restaurant were very efficient and worked hard all day. Always clearing away plates and topping drinks up, even remembering our order when we sat down. Making us feel important ☺️ Bar staff Nandana and Menaka were always there to top you up and noticed when you were close to finishing before asking if you wanted another. Staff all over were great 10/10 service all over. I don’t think there is 1 area that didn’t meet our expectations and we would 100% return Read less
