Ah, the dream job. We all want it. It is just like finding that one great love, it is a goal that virtually everyone has. After all, over the course of our lifetimes, we will work some 90,000 hours – and that is a lot of time to waste on something you are not passionate about.

And while finding the best job in the world is not a walk in the park, everyone working at Kuredu Resort & Spa will agree it is no fantasy either. Why are we teasing you here, you will ask. Because after all those long hours working, when the time for your well-deserved holiday comes, you should get a spot-on service! And that can only be provided by people who are passionate about what they do and understand what you mean when you tell them your dream has finally come true.

This is where our new Resident Manager, Rainer Steinhilber, comes into the story. Born and raised in Germany, Rainer first took an interest in the hospitality industry when he moved to Paris to join the Disneyland Resort. It was there where he learned the basics of how resorts operate. After having been assigned to several management positions all around the globe, Rainer’s path led to the Maldives.

If you have been here before or skimmed through TripAdvisor reviews, you will understand it is easy to fall in love with the Maldivian islands. What is more, Rainer is married to his beautiful wife Shafiyya and considers himself to be at least a quarter of Maldivian already.

When he is not out and about, making sure you are treated well on Kuredu, Rainer likes to go snorkelling, take part in other recreational activities on the island, and keep up-to-date with the Borussia Mönchengladbach football scores.

Rainer describes his best moments in his dream job at Kuredu Resort & Spa like this:

I love to see the look on the faces of our guests when they step out of the Transmaldivian seaplane and look at the beauty of our island. You can see in their eyes how happy they are to finally fulfill their dreams, or our repeater guests being able to relive their best holiday moments again. Another such moment is when we receive a simple thank you from our guests: that is the best reward we can get. I can’t even describe how beautiful it is to be able to make guests happy. Working here might possibly be the best job in the world, and choosing Kuredu for your well-deserved Maldives resort retreat undoubtedly the best choice you can make.
