Enjoy an authentic dinner with welcoming hosts

The intimate resort of Coco Palm Dhuni Kolhu offers the ultimate luxurious escape as guests are submerged in the tranquility and easy pace of Maldivian life. The serene island is edged with sparkling turquoise waters and stunning white-sand beaches, and you’ll soon unwind in these breathtaking surroundings as you snorkel along the house reef and indulge in pampering treatments at the Balinese-style spa.

If you’re eager to immerse yourself ever further in the peaceful culture of the Maldives, you’ll jump at the amazing opportunity to spend an evening with a local family in their home. This is a truly unforgettable experience to share with your own loved ones.

After a day spent browsing street merchants’ wares, taking in the island’s beautiful sights or simply basking in the glorious sunshine on the beach, your friendly hosts will welcome you into their delightful abode for an enchanting evening that promises home cooking, intriguing company, laughter and discovery.

Your new companions will invite you to join them on their evening walk, during which you’ll admire the magical landscape as you get to know them better. Once you’ve made your way back to the home, your culinary skills will be put to the test as you help the family make dinner. Your accommodating hosts will patiently guide you through preparations as together you cook up delicious traditional cuisine before sitting down to feast on your creations. Authentic Maldivian food in an authentic Maldivian home - you can’t get much closer to the local culture than this.

After dinner, you’ll reluctantly bid farewell to your new friends and return to Coco Palm, taking with you wonderful memories of an incredible evening, as well as a few exotic recipes to try when you get home. This is a totally unique experience that you and your family or friends will treasure forever.
