Abstract: | The present EIA concerns part of the new developments which will be taking place at
the Four Seasons at Kuda Huraa and K. Bodu Huraa. The parts presented concern the
operational part of the resort, in particular a tennis court, as well as the changes being
brought to the access channel between Kuda Huraa and Bodu Huraa. A number of
structures will infringe on the marine environment, in particular, the development of
the tennis court as it will be built on reclaimed land from Bodu Huraa In addition,
some deepening works will be carried out in the lagoon area to enable a create an
improved swimming area on the western side, as well as easier boat movement to the
arrival jetty and service area of the resort.Four Seasons operates two resorts in the Maldives. Kuda Huraa is the first property
which was operated by Four Seasons in the Maldives. Landaa Giraavaru is a more
modern resort on a larger island in Baa Atoll. To improve the standing of Kuda Huraa,
some investments have been decided upon. This includes in particular a tennis court
in Bodu Huraa, widening of the channel in between Kuda Huraa and Bodu Huraa,
creation of a bathing area on the western side, with more practical and spacious
amenities and making better use of the scarce land available. Overall, it is expected
that the resort will become more attractive to both repeater guests and new guests
looking for a luxurious experience in the Maldives. With the present development
both the developer and operator hope to maintain the property among the top
Maldivian properties. |
