Kuri inn Guest House
Click for Photos
The Kuri Inn guest house is situated in the picturesque fishing
village of Omadhoo in the heart of Ari
Atoll, a clean and friendly local island. In contrast to the major resorts, on
Omadhoo you have the opportunity to experience the real Maldives island life
and traditions.
The guest house “Kuri”, has a laid-back feeling with a cozy,
secluded patio, hammock and lounge chairs for sunbathing – and the beach just a
minute’s walk away. The guest house
kitchen offers local and European cuisine in the outdoor dining area.
The island is about 3 sq. kilometers with under 1000
residents. Maldivians are reluctant to leave the territory of its atolls, so
islands like Omadhoo have fully preserved the ancient way of life and
traditions of its nation, carefully passed down from generation to generation.
Unlike the big resorts in Omadhoo you have the opportunity to experience the
real Maldives, dive into the local flavor, feel the oriental way of life and
traditions. The inhabitant`s attitude to foreigners is friendly and your interest will be fully
rewarded. You, for example, can enter the courtyard house, see how the family
prepares bread-fruit cakes and fish curry for dinner . This is something that
travelers always want to see to understand the country traditions and what can
not be bought with the holiday packages.
As in most of the Eastern countries, friendly relations and
good welcome are more valued than signed papers and stamped documents. And most
important, perhaps, is a mutual respect for each other. Respectfully, we ask you,
too, dear guests, to follow and respect those traditions, which historically
hold by Maldivians.
On residential islands can not drink alcohol, and for the
ladies being on the public areas as well when sunbathing and swimming, shoulders and hips need to be to covered.
These rules, of course, do not belong to the nearby uninhabited islands, where
guests are free to relax as they want. Except that, we ask you not to forget
about the cleanliness of the unique nature of the area and not to destroy it, leaving
the garbage.
The house reef surrounding the island is pure and innocent
with great live corals and amazing marine life, perfect for snorkeling and
scuba diving. The island’s southwest beach side ends with an extraordinary,
beautiful sand narrow. Its a perfect area to enjoy snorkeling all day long and
watch the amazing Maldivian sunsets.
