W Maldives

Deep Cove

Our vacation was generally good with a few inconvenient events: the arrival to the island was hectic. From the arrival terminal you have to check in to the hotel kiosk, then the seaplane operator, then take a not-very-comfortable bus, then a noisy and smelly seaplane, then a speed boat, and finally arrive to the island 2 hours after your arrival to Male. The resort itself is nice, small, staff are friendly, service is a bet slow in the morning but the rest of the day is fine. The room was ok and clean. No verity of coffee, the cold milk glass cost US10.. but you will get used to being over-charged in Maldives. One last thing: the seaplane trip back to Male made a one-stop in a other island without prior notification. Enjoy inhaling that smoke of the fuel during landing and departing !

My wife and I are thoroughly enjoying our time at W Maldives. From the seamless check-in at Male airport to a hassle-free check-out, everything has been exceptional. The cuisine at Kitchen, Fish, and Fire was truly amazing, and the staff members were remarkably helpful and friendly. Their professionalism and evident enthusiasm for their work were outstanding. I'd like to extend a special commendation to the fitness manager, Mark. He is not only very friendly but also consistently went out of his way to ensure our trip was as enjoyable as possible. Mark is incredibly knowledgeable, whether it's about fitness, details about the hotel, or his hometown in the Philippines. We can't wait to return next year to experience this wonderful place once again.

The level of service provided by this resort is unmatched. From the second we met our welcome ambassadors at the airport kiosk, we were very well taken care of. We took the W shuttle (a/c and wi-fi onboard) to the lounge, which had food, drinks, and TVs. Here, we filled out our guest registration and selected Elite status benefits (free breakfast is the way to go). We also had our picture taken, which was later delivered to our room in a paper W picture frame. Once the seaplane was ready, we had an uneventful ride to the resort. Upon arrival, the heads of each department were waiting to greet us with cold towels, champagne, and refreshments. We then got a private tour of the entire island via golf cart with Anis. Anis was extremely helpful and friendly throughout our entire stay. He dropped us off at our room and our bags were delivered shortly after. Snorkeling the house reef is a must. Around SIP and AWAY are the best places to see turtles, sharks, rays, and all kinds of fish. We also went snorkeling off our villa patio several times. The AWAY spa is worth every penny. Nancy is extremely friendly and hospitable. Definitely try the ginger tea with honey. The breakfast spread is pretty extensive - western breakfast, asian dishes, fruit, yogurt, unimaginable number of pastries - and champagne and vodka are included. Suresh, the executive sous chef (great guy), recommended the coconut french toast with banana compote...absolute game changer. The pool never got super crowded and was a cool place to get a drink and mingle with other guests. Mani and Mahey made sure I always had a drink in hand. The gym isn't anything special - good enough to get a decent workout in. Several times throughout our stay, we received complementary cocktails delivered to our room. Upon arrival, we had champagne and chocolate awaiting us in our room. The entire staff is so friendly and helpful. We had great conversations with many of them. They will go out of their way to accommodate any request. The WhatsApp chat was very helpful to communicate with the staff for room service, pickups, making reservations, etc. When it was time to leave, a W team member stayed with us at the airport through security, until our bags were checked, and we received our boarding passes. She also recommended places to eat in the airport. A very special thank you to Hasan, Mani, Anis, Mahey, and Dipu for making us feel at home.

Thank you very much for your outstanding hospitality at W Maldives. The whole team were amazing which made my experience “something else”. The Island was Fabulous, Spectacular, Wonderful, Wow put all together. It will be forever remembered and would love to visit again and add more unforgettable memories. Alexander - Director of Operations, does a tremendous job in operating the retreat island to rewind and refresh for life. The activities were superb don’t miss sunrise & sunset yoga, and a kickboxing class with the one and only coach Marquee! Food was mouthwatering - each of W Maldives restaurants deserves nothing less than 5 stars. Away Spa tampered like I never experienced before.
