According to a press release issued by HDC, these hotels will be equipped with state-of-the-art facilities, promising high-quality services to cater to the growing influx of tourists visiting the Maldives.
HDC highlighted that the preferred model for the project is a land lease arrangement, though proposals featuring other models will also be considered.
The corporation encourages developers and operators to submit creative business models, noting that the project aims to enhance the tourism infrastructure within Urban Isle, a prime location in the expanding Hulhumale district.
"If more than one bidder expresses interest and submits proposals, the project will be awarded to the most comprehensive bidder," the statement read.

Interested parties must submit their EOI via email to [email protected] by 2pm on October 29.
