Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Kuda Huraa completes Project 100 Coconut Trees – Hotelier Maldives


This month marks the successful completion of Project 100 Coconut Trees at Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Kuda Huraa, an initiative that has transformed key areas of the resort with 100 newly planted coconut trees. This project not only enhances the resort’s natural beauty but also strengthens its sustainability efforts under the Four Seasons For Good program.

The newly planted coconut trees—including the vibrant Chowghat Orange Dwarf, resilient Malayan Green Dwarf, and high-yielding Gangabondam Hybrid—are now thriving in locations such as Sunset Beach, Sunrise Beach, Reef Island, The Island Spa, and the back-of-house staff area. Each tree is expected to absorb up to 25 kilograms of CO₂ annually, helping reduce the resort’s carbon emissions by approximately 2,500 kilograms per year. Additionally, these trees will provide natural shade, cooling effects, and enhanced privacy for guests visiting the island.

“Project 100 Coconut Trees is a reflection of our ongoing commitment to creating a harmonious environment for both our guests and the planet,” says Didier Jardin, General Manager at Four Seasons Kuda Huraa. “With these trees now part of our landscape, we’re contributing to the island’s beauty while taking meaningful steps toward a more sustainable future.”

Aligned with the Four Seasons For Good initiative, which focuses on both Planet and People, Project 100 Coconut Trees is the latest in a series of inspiring initiatives at Kuda Huraa. From coral reefscaping and sea turtle rehabilitation to a hospitality apprenticeship program for Maldivian youth and thriving onsite herb and vegetable gardens, Four Seasons Kuda Huraa prioritizes projects that benefit both the local environment and community. The resort also holds itself accountable across all departments and operations through annual EarthCheck assessments, earning the EarthCheck Silver award in 2024.
