2025 Kodhipparu Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in March)

Great experience

What’s the best definition of a Valentine treat? It’s living in a villa right above the opaque, crystal clear water of the Indian Ocean. It’s spending quality time with your beloved people. It’s enjoying the ocean breeze that city life fails to offer. And it’s being upgraded to the most luxurious villa in a five-star resort. This time, it’s Grand Park Kodhipparu, Maldives. For my entire life, I’ve always prayed that one day I’ll be able to afford a stay in one of these villas, and God has heard my prayers. I expected a good villa, but the resort management surprised us with this upgrade. Thank you very much for this wonderful present, Grand Park Kodhipparu!

#favouriteairline Had a wonderful time at Grand Park Kodhipparu Maldives. Fantastic sunrise and sunset with great service. The water villa has a pool and you can snorkel from the back of the villa. And the snorkelling gear can be rented for free.The package we chose includes buffet breakfast and either a buffet dinner or s 3-course dinner. Would definitely recommend this place

I recently had the pleasure of visiting the breathtaking Maldives and staying at the beautiful Grand Park Kodhipparu resort. Here's a quick recap of my experience: Day 1: Arrival & Check-In The check-in process was seamless and stress-free, as we were escorted directly to our Ocean Villa upon arrival. This was a welcome touch after a long flight! The villa was pristine, with stunning views of the turquoise ocean. A unique feature was the transparent glass floor in the room, allowing us to spot vibrant blue fish swimming below at night—a magical experience. Snorkeling right off the villa was a highlight, with coral reefs and a variety of marine life to explore. Bonus: complimentary snorkeling gear provided by the resort! Day 2: Relaxation & Fun We spent the day enjoying the infinity pool, snorkeling, and the kids' club. The pool's view was mesmerizing, and the little ones loved the activities at the club. Day 3: Dolphin Adventure In the morning, we embarked on the "Lucky Dolphin" excursion, but luck wasn’t on our side as we didn’t spot any dolphins. At $315 for 2 adults and 1 child, the price felt steep. Highlights of the Resort Convenient Location: Only a 20-minute speedboat ride from the airport, with transfers aligned to our arrival and departure times. Delicious Breakfast: A wide variety of options, including fresh passion fruit and orange juices. Private Transfer: We had the entire speedboat to ourselves when leaving for the airport—a luxurious end to our stay. A Few Downsides Expensive Excursions: Prices for activities like the dolphin trip were higher compared to other resorts I’ve visited. Limited Activities: Being on a small island, the resort might feel repetitive if you stay more than 2 days. Overall, Grand Park Kodhipparu is perfect for a short, relaxing getaway with incredible views and excellent service! Would definitely recommend for couples and families seeking a serene retreat. 🏝️

Thank you, AirAsia, for making my husband birthday celebration truly unforgettable! From seamless travel to a destination as magical as the Maldives, every moment was a gift I’ll always cherish!

From vibrant coral reefs to serene overwater villas, every moment in the Maldives feels like a dream come true.

- Location: Located in North Male Atoll, Maldives - Address: Kodhipparu, 08121 Maldives - How to get there: Accessible only by speedboat provided by the hotel, round trip fare is 140 USD - Features: Comprises Beach Villas, Ocean Villas, Lagoon Villas, and Reef Villas. Lagoon Villas have more beautiful sea colors but are deeper and have stronger waves, suitable only for experienced swimmers. The resort is relatively new, so the condition is good. - Rate per night: Lagoon Water Villa 480,000 KRW - Rating: 4.5/5.0 I found this place while looking for clean resorts with beautiful sea colors in the Maldives speedboat-accessible area. The hammock over the sea visible as soon as you enter the room is really a hit... The hotel is only about 5 years old, so it's clean, and it's great that both the bathroom and the room have outdoor access. The island is not very large, but it's best to move around by buggy. The all-day dining restaurant The Edge and the poolside bar Breeze, which operates from day to night, are also good. The Beach Club has a library and a gym. There is a water sports club where you can enjoy both non-motorized and motorized water sports. Highly recommended for honeymooners!!

Relax #maldives

May to November is the rainy season in Maldives, but not every island or every day is rainy, and the islands in the south have less rain🌧️! Chose the six-star Kuda Huraa Island, with double A for beach and snorkeling, just a 20-minute speedboat ride from Male Airport, very convenient. Booked an overwater villa, with a net bed, pool, and glass floor all included! Lying on the net bed at night watching the star-filled sky felt amazing! All the marine animals in the picture were seen at the hotel! So surprise! Spent 5 days on the island in early June, and it only rained for ten minutes on the very last day🌧️, giving us a taste of it, the rest were beautiful sunny days☀️, making our vacation super perfect! After coming back, it felt like we had experienced an incredibly wonderful dream🤩🤩

With this post from @grandparkkodhipparu, I bid adieu to the Maldives and set my sights on a grand USA adventure. Help me plan it! Recommend your favorite cities! 🇲🇻✈️🇺🇸

Refusing to accept that the moisture outside isn't the ocean, I'm already planning to extend summer. Can you guess my next destination? The first correct guess wins a postcard! 🌊🏄‍♀️

There are countries about which you can say just a little and already say a lot. Belgium - manneken pis and brussels sprouts. Thailand is all about its’ massage and white sand beaches. Singapore is the future. Italy is pasta, pizza and better not checking calories and your weight ;) But the Maldives are perfect in every meaning. This is one of the few places I always love to go back to. @grandparkkodhipparu has become one of the best places I ever been. What countries have you been to and how would you describe them? #GrandParkKodhipparu

Who said women must choose between work and children? Sometimes, all we want is to soak up the sun in a villa at @grandparkkodhipparu and listen to Mac Miller. How about you? 🏝️☀️
