The Standard, Huruvalhi Maldives is inviting guests to plunge into an aquatic world of wonder this summer, with the opportunity to “unwind in paradise” and experience a once-in-a-lifetime encounter with majestic manta rays.

Opening this autumn in the most tranquil and celebrated part of the Indian Ocean, the Standard Huruvalhi Maldives gives the American luxury-accommodation chain its newest home on a naturally protected island just a short seaplane ride from Male.
