Since the Park Hyatt Maldives is located on a remote island,
food and drinks are going to cost you an immense amount of money. Dinners can
easily run into the hundreds of dollars, which is a bit beyond my budget.
Instead of spending a small fortune on food, I would have a huge
breakfast, and the rest of the day I would snack on protein and granola bars.
A nice side benefit of having a late breakfast is the
restaurant is less crowded, which means you can usually score a table right
next to gorgeous infinity pool.
The breakfast at the Park Hyatt Maldives is definitely not
your typical hotel continental breakfast. You get to choose two entrees from a
vast selection of items on an a la carte menu, and on top of that is a relatively
large buffet spread of cold cuts, pastries, and fresh fruit.
Since we were in the Maldives, I decided to go with the
local entrees each day, the Maldivian tuna curry and the spicy tuna mashuni.
Both were remarkable, especially the mashuni which was made from freshly caught
tuna.
If you’re still feeling hungry, there is a rotating buffet
of hot entrées ranging from waffles to bagels.
Beverages are complimentary, and I especially loved the
chocolate mocha and great tea selection.
Breakfast is free for Hyatt diamond members and cost around
$30 per person for non-members. I would say it is well worth spending for, as
you could easily skip lunch and just have a small dinner.
