Hurawalhi Island Resort 

Escape to a whimsical waterworld with manta rays and dolphins

Adults-only, all-inclusive Hurawalhi is a place to slow the pace, ditch the shoes, dine under the sea and sleep over the waves.

Snorkelling at Hurawhali is sensational and its million-dollar location regularly hosts dolphins, manta rays and turtles. Other jewels include a pool almost merging with the ocean, a sugar-white sandbank, private yacht charter and all-villa accommodation. Dine at the teppanyaki grill, by the beach or at iconic 5.8 Undersea, an all-glass aquarium restaurant beneath the ocean.

Why we love Hurawalhi Island Resort

  • All-inclusive Plus includes snorkelling and windsurfing lessons, yoga and a sunset dolphin cruise.

  • Sunsets on the Champagne Pavilion looking out for dolphins.

  • Soak up the solitude in a Romantic Ocean Villa complete with a catamaran net swinging over the lagoon.

  • Escape by boat to Dream Island sandbank for a day to yourselves on a powder white beach.
