The developer of the much awaited Ismehela Hera Resort located in the southern part of the country near Meedhoo has announced the resort will officially open in December 2018. 


"Sixty per cent of the resort development has been completed. Civil works of the powerhouse are nearly completed now. We are now awaiting all materials to be delivered. We are in the final stages, preparing for the completion of the project" Moosa Didi, CEO of Ismehela Hera Resort stated during a press briefing given to local media.


Moosa Didi further added that water villa works are being done at a rapid speed along with works for the arrival jetty, bar, restaurant and reception.


Development of a tourist resort on the island of Ismehela Hera has long been planned out with the project making headlines as recently as 2015 when the government announced that it was in talks with two foreign investors that had expressed interest in developing the island. Minster Zameer told local journalists at the time that the resort would have at least 600 beds.


The announcement was followed by the launch of Ismehela Hera Integrated Resort Development Project on April 28, 2015, by President Abdulla Yameen Abdul Gayoom. 


Ismehela Hera Resort, which is being developed in two phases, will have 240 rooms in total including 110 water villas, 30 ocean villas and 70 rooms. Ismehela Hera will be joined with Kedevaa Hera via a bridge, and Kedevaa Hera will be equipped with water villas as well. More than 600 job opportunities will be made available along with the development of the resort.
