Pure paradise, fantastic place 😍 Amazing, kind & caring staff. They would do anything for you! ❤️ Delicious food in main buffet restaurant and great choice of cocktails in the bar.
One of the most beautiful places we've been to. Walking around the island takes about 20 minutes. You can literally forget the shoes and stay barefoot all the time. The beach is being cleaned constantly from any coral debris washed ashore.
Our spacious beach pool villa was clean & spotless and we truly felt like we were in heaven - with an open shower in the bathroom, private pool outside the villa and a cute white sand path through lush green vegetation leading right to the pristine beach.
Sunset cruise and snorkeling cruise all included in our stay were amazing. Seeing baby sharks swimming around us was unreal. Once every few days, in the evening, you can spectacle bigger sharks feeding 👌
Highly recommended!

Went there for our honeymoon (meticulously planned by the husband) and it was a gorgeous place. Maldives itself is so beautiful but this place exceeded our expectations in terms of rooms, food, drinks, activities etc. The highlights for me were being surrounded by the beautiful waters, enjoying incredible cocktails on the beach, the seafood and Asian night preparations and of course the delicious Italian corner whipping up amazing pastas for each meal.

Our stay at Brennia Kottefaru in the Maldives was truly a dream come true! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with genuine warmth and hospitality that made us feel special and completely at ease.
The resort itself is absolutely stunning — crystal-clear waters, white sand beaches, and luxurious villas that offer both comfort and breathtaking views. Every corner of the property was beautifully maintained, and the atmosphere was peaceful and serene.
What truly made this experience unforgettable was the incredible team of staff and crew(Thana, Adithya, Kevin, Azim and Juwel). From the front desk to the housekeeping team, restaurant servers, and excursion guides, everyone was kind, attentive, and went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. Their smiles, professionalism, and willingness to help made us feel truly cared for.
We enjoyed delicious meals (special thanks to the chef and kitchen staff!), exciting snorkelling , and unfortunately due to weather sunset cruise was cancelled. The attention to detail and the personalized touches throughout our stay made all the difference.
A heartfelt thank you to everyone for making our vacation so special. We’re already dreaming of our next visit!
Erika
I’d like to thank the Brennia Kottefaru resort for a truly memorable staycation here in the Maldives. Your hospitality, kindness & beauty were second to none❤️
Each morning we were treated to beautiful sunrise walks on your pristinely kept white sandy beach, the blue & see-through water with local reefs & fish were like no other on this planet. We were treated to lovely, different & tasty food each & every day, always with a different theme, never once were we disappointed.
The facilities were great, we really enjoyed our deluxe overwater villa. Very calming hearing the waves lap up against it, looking at the local fish cruise by & enjoying it all from our very own pool.
There were so many activities that we could’ve chosen to do, but for sure we enjoyed our snorkeling safari, sunset cruise, Maldivian dance night. Last but not least, thanks for helping me celebrate my boyfriend’s birthday!
Thanks for a top notch stay❤️

Look for other options better!
Me and my wife booked this place for 3 nights for my wife’s birthday and our mini moon trip. We arrived Male airport at around 11.30am there a lady came to approach us and took us to the seaplane booth
Seaplane : We were told that our seaplane schedule to the hotel will depart at 15.30 and so we have to sit and wait at the lounge for 3 hours. (No earlier notice before arrival)
After the 4 hours wait they say our hotel will be the second stop we got on to the seaplane and when arrived first stop they had asked us to leave the plane in the middle of the ocean saying we will now have to wait for hotels speedboat to come pick us up since they will no longer go park at our hotel.
We arrived the hotel and checked in at almost 17.00 (whole day wasted)
Hotel :
1. When we arrived we were taken to our overwater villa where minibar had no snacks but just drinks that you could get at the bar itself since we took all inclusive package
2. Hot water did not work for the first day which we came to know later that the boiler was closed and so they fixed it
3. Tv didnt work throughout 3 nights that we stayed
4. Coffee cup had lipstick on it when the manager came to know he said will check on it and never got back
The hotel gave no interest to any of the complains!! We asked to cancel the last night to get back home earlier since our experience was BAD and we would rather go celebrate my wifes birthday at home but the hotel didnt bother.
Food: Other all inclusive hotels have restaurants for you too choose the type of cuisine you prefer but here you have to eat what is prepared for you!!
Pasta - everyday lunch and dinner
Daal - everyday breakfast lunch and dinner
Pizza - everyday lunch and dinner
Barely any asian food except for indian!! And the other variety is extremely bad.
It was a waste of money visiting this place. All we did was to count days to get home. WORST EXPERIENCE EVER!!!

The ocean was beautiful, clear turquoise, calm, and warm — ideal for swimming, snorkelling ( which was amazing)! or just floating peacefully under the sun. We spent hours lounging by the shore, soaking in the views and serenity. Each sunset was more magical than the last, with vibrant colors reflecting off the water like a painting.
The island is kept clean by the staff, it’s peaceful and not overcrowded, which made it even more special. Whether we were sipping a cocktail at a pool or taking a walk along the shoreline, everything felt relaxed and perfectly in tune with the laid-back island vibe.
Hondaafushi was exactly what we needed — pure relaxation, natural beauty, and memories that will last a lifetime. If you’re dreaming of a postcard-perfect beach holiday, this place is it.
Gökhan Albayram
Amazing place, amazing hotel. Room locations are perfect for ambiance. Island has got very beautiful nature. You can swim in white beaches or you can swim with the fishes. You can ride inside to the jungle. Staff are very kind and helpful. And hotel guest relations teams organizing all details from coming to maldives to the leaving moment.. Thank you for hospitality.
Maria Degtiareva
Thanks for the great hospitality.
Everything was perfect from the comfortable lounge zone in airport to whole staying.
The only one moment which one faced as a minus. On second night some bugs were bite me and my husband. We informed the reception and staff immediately reacted and send special service to the room to fix that issue.
Mohodha Rahaa
Beautiful Island with natural beach. I spent 7 days on this heavenly Island with my wife. Nice food with friendly staff. I enjoyed the Sunset at Thila Bar. Nice experience, which will never fade away soon.

Great island to be there with family

Michaela Jelínková
We absolutely loved our stay at Malahini. The hotel is located on a small, stunning island just a short boat ride from the airport — truly a paradise on earth. You can snorkel all around the island and discover the incredible underwater world, and the hotel even provides snorkels and masks as part of the all-inclusive package.
The rooms were well-equipped, the food was delicious throughout our entire stay, and we also enjoyed a private beach dinner — a truly romantic and unforgettable experience. We highly recommend booking a massage during your stay as well.
Don’t miss the free excursion to a local island, which was a great way to see a different side of the Maldives. An amazing stay from start to finish!
Ignacio Cabeza
Overall, is a good 3 star hotel with a few rooms/villas that are top class. We stayed at villa 107, which in my opinion is one of the best. A lot of privacy when at the deck, and also the bathroom is further away. Nice touches like the White Company products, the Nespresso, good towels too. We had the breakfast at the deck and also the floating breakfast included. The buffet is really good, every meal is different and good quality.
The service although is not very good. We requested a late check out (or to book a lower quality room) as our flight was 9pm from Malé; we did this request the first day and only the night before they told us that late check out wasn’t possible but it was very hard to book the extra room too… the communication was very bad. They should have told us to book it straight away and not to wait until last night. Then, we got the full board which it is not clear if the drinks are or are not included during meals.
Overall, like I said, a 3 star hotel with a few good rooms and close to male.
Shadrach Asher
Had a Amazing stay!!!!!
I encourage to book the resort in advanced so you can get a unforgettable stay and experience.
Form the airport pick up until the check in to the Room staff gave us a greeting and wonderful welcome 🤗.
Food is awesome here.
You can have variety of dishes and it's woow.
Once again thanks to staff who made our stay comfortable.
See you soon again....💯❤️
Marlena Tomczak
We are in a charming holiday paradise. We found a turquoise ocean, greenery like in a real jungle and wonderful hotel service. The lovely Subha from the reception took care of us. Thanks to her we have a wonderful holiday. With a smile she helped us change rooms. Subha is an exceptionally nice, helpful and professional girl. So far - no one has taken such good care of us on holiday. Congratulations to the hotel for its professional and positive staff. Subha - we thank you for your smile and understanding. Renata and Andrzej.
Mansour Aldhanhani
Absolutely loved my stay at Malahini Kuda Bandos! The island is stunning—crystal-clear water, white sand, and peaceful vibes. The staff were incredibly friendly and made us feel so welcome. Rooms were clean, modern, and comfortable. Great food with lots of variety, and plenty of fun water activities. Only a quick speedboat from the airport too! Highly recommend for a relaxing getaway in the Maldives.

Yousef Chekfeh
I will start with the Cons:
1. Reservation Issues: It took Emirates Holiday almost five days to check an overwater villa, but they couldn't reserve it. When I arrived, the resort offered the villa for an extra $615.
2. Unprofessional Reception: The reception lacked proper explanation about the resort's facilities and amenities.
3. Poor Room Service: Room service was uncoordinated, with poor communication with the reception. If you’re planning a special moment, don’t expect any surprises to go as planned.
4. Overpriced Food & Bars: Food and drinks are expensive. Full board or all-inclusive is necessary.
5. Expensive Activities: Resort activities and trips are overpriced.
Pros:
1. Beautiful Villas: The Premium Villa was superb with a sky jacuzzi. The Overwater Villa was elegant and offered good privacy pool
2. Clean Beaches: The beaches were clean and stunning.
3. Friendly Staff: Only Restaurant staff were kind and welcoming.
4. Location: only 15 mins form airport using the resort speed boat
Overall:
1. Unless you can deal with the above comments, I don’t recommend spend your money of this resort.
2. The resort has potential, but needs to improve its reservation system, reception, and room service to be truly 5-star.
Emma Chase
Went here for 10 nights from 21st November to 1st December 2023! Went with a friend and stayed in a premium beach villa, which was excellent! Had the most amazing time here! The staff are so friendly and lovely and give impeccable service, especially Uttar and Jazlaan in the main restaurant who always welcomed us and were brilliant and Sanjay and Guru at the swim up bar at the pool who both gave excellent service. ( Sorry if I spelt their names wrong!) It was a holiday for my birthday and they did a wonderful table decoration and cake on our last night! The weather was great on the most hand. We had one morning of rain and one evening of rain, both lasting a couple of hours and the temperature was about 32 degrees celsius (day) 28 degrees celsius (night).
We were on the all-inclusive package, and the food was mostly really good. It is done buffet style and you can always find something you like! Obviously, there is a lot of fish, but they have theme nights too, eg, Mexican, Italian, Maldivian, etc. My only complaint is that you would think all cocktails and drinks would be included on the all-inclusive package, but it is only about 30- 40% of cocktails and house vodka, rum, whiskey and brandy. No liquers like Baileys, Amaretto, etc, are included.
We went on the sunset cruise to see dolphins in the wild, which was $80 each, and the experience was AMAZING!
The island works on a cashless basis, so everything is signed for, and you settle up on your last night, which made us feel safer not having to carry any money on us.
The island is a 10-minute boat ride from the Dock opposite the airport, and we were met in arrivals by staff from the island who were lovely and friendly and helped with our cases.
I highly recommend this resort and hope to go back sometime!! Thanks to everyone there who made my birthday so memorable!
Peter Ar
-Lovely Island-Resort.
-GREAT FOR DIVING!
-Great clean beaches
-great buffet
-friendl⁴y staff
-We have been picked up from the airport with boat upon arrival.
-🌈 Friendly (although we have been respectful)
-Overall little bit too expensive...But its Maldives!
We would come back again though.
Thank you for an amazing week!
Eisa Al-Ibrahim
The island is very nice and we loved the beaches and every thing there.
The island is 15 Minutes from Airport.
All purchases are settled in USD to your room and no need to hold cash.
There are many options regarding food.
You can find all sea activities there.
GYM and kids club are available.
Staff were very friendly and kind.
I gave 4 starts only because there is no option other than walking long distances to reach restaurants or any other place. I wish if they provide bicycles or any thing that will help to reach the places faster.
Rishabh Soni
Stayed here for two nights. Can't even point out one single mistake!
They are extremely punctual and helpful. We were greeted by Mona, she helped us alot in checking in process.
Well maintained property, they have golf carts to drop you to your room or anywhere you want. Pool is great as well, perfectly maintained.
They have a beautiful Haven Deck above water to sit and enjoy BBQ. They provide Adventure sports as well but it's costly But trust me rent a snorkeling gear for 20$/day. It's totally worth it. Because you get to explore alot of undersea life very close to the beach.
Room service was quick and good. No complaints there.
In food there was quite a huge variety to eat from. They make food from every continent. Pure Indian Vegetarians might feel a little problem but rest apart everything good and tasty.
Throughout the day they have various activities planned which you can join for your entertainment (free/no charges) like when I went during Christmas, they had cake mixing, karoke, unplugged musical night.
They have a huge football field as well.
It's almost 20min speed boat ride away from airport.
The Only downside is that they have only 2 water villas and they don't give you water villa vibes as well. Rest all are beach facing rooms (few are pool facing).
Can't recommend this property if you aren't looking for water villas specifically!
But trust me it's a great property even without Water Villas!

The holiday exceeded all expectations! Excellent service and incredible attention from the staff — from the very first day, I felt truly cared for. The food was top-notch — every meal was a delight with great variety and quality. I would especially like to thank our Island Host, Umida. She was incredibly attentive, always available, helped with any questions, and radiated kindness. Thanks to her, I felt right at home. A big thank you for the warm welcome!
Tom & Jerry
A perfect blend of relaxation and service
Our stay at Cocoon Maldives was everything we hoped for — stunning views, crystal-clear waters, and a peaceful atmosphere that made it easy to unwind. The rooms were spacious, clean, and beautifully designed, and the food was consistently delicious with plenty of variety.
What stood out most was the overall service. The team was always friendly and attentive without being intrusive. A special mention to Riyaz, who checked in on us a few times during our stay — very professional and helpful whenever we needed assistance.
We left feeling completely refreshed and grateful for such a smooth and enjoyable experience. Would definitely return and recommend Cocoon to anyone looking for a truly relaxing Maldivian escape.
Hosam Mansy
Our stay at *Cocoon Maldives*was exceptional in every way. From the moment we arrived, we were treated with warmth, professionalism, and genuine care. Every department deserves recognition:

- *Housekeeping* kept our room spotless and comfortable every day.
- *Restaurant and kitchen teams* provided delicious meals with great variety and excellent service.
- *Recreation and spa staff* were always helpful and made every activity enjoyable.
Management* was visibly present and committed to guest satisfaction.
A very special thank to Karim from the entertainment team — an incredibly talented dancer and fire performer! His energy, passion, and charisma added so much life to our evenings. He truly made our experience unforgettable.
Cocoon is more than a resort — it’s a place that feels like home, and we can’t wait to come back
omar muhamed
Cocoon Maldives was a truly unforgettable experience.

Special thanks to Karim his energy, kindness, and amazing shows made every evening full of life and fun. He’s a true highlight of the resort!
Highly recommended for anyone looking for a perfect island escape. We'll definitely come back
David Stevens
Cocoon island is beautiful! The service and food throughout the week has been first class and the management should be extremely proud of all their staff.
Special mention to Pradeep at the main bar, such a great guy with his friendly attitude and professional knowledge of cocktails is second to none. Also, big thank you to Polash at the main bar too, both Pradeep and Polash always kept the drinks flowing.
Moosa & Isse in housekeeping are both amazing guys and really looked after us on a daily basis in our over water villa.
Shaheen, Mahir, Aju and Roja in the Octopus restaurant were always super friendly and welcoming. As we’re all the restaurant staff and chef’s cooking at the live stations. The variety of food on offer each day was always abundant and delicious.
Big shout out to Adda our designated rep,
who kept us informed throughout the week on island activities, booking our dinner reservations and answering all of our questions. This really was a lovely touch.
We would also like to thank all of the team down at the activity centre, swimming with sharks was a truly amazing experience and one we will never forget.
On our last couple of days we were surprisingly upgraded, so a huge thank you to Riza and all of the management team.
Cocoon you have been amazing,
thank you.
We will certainly be returning guests!

Annabelle Mutton
Amazing service, beautiful location and would definitely return. We felt very well looked after throughout the whole stay - even things as small as being offered water at every meal to make sure everyone is hydrated in the heat. Wonderfully clean, air-conditioned room with a huge bed, even in the standard room. Minibar is restocked every day for free. Many watersports offered for free. House reef is incredible too.
Serhiy Mochalskyy
The hotel is amazing, and the whole experience in the Maldives was fantastic.
Pros:
1. If you’ve seen beautiful photos of the Maldives with white sand and turquoise water — it’s not Photoshop. The colors are real, and this island truly showcases them. It’s breathtaking.
2. The reef is astonishing for snorkeling. The house reef is full of colorful fish, just 10 meters from the beach. The highlights included baby sharks near the shore and larger sharks a bit further out.
3. Delicious food with a large variety.
4. Plenty of activities to enjoy every day — you definitely won’t get bored on this island.
Cons:
These are just very minor suggestions for improvement and don’t take away from the overall experience. For instance, there wasn’t a tap near our villa to rinse sand off our feet. After a few days, we discovered that some villas and other areas did have such taps. It would be great if every villa had one installed.

Had a 10 night stay beginning of May & it was awesome, staff were brilliant across the board. food was excellent drinks too, rooms were clean and large & well maintained. Snorkelling is a must & one of the main reasons we went, we were not disappointed. Will definitely return, well done RIU.

Paradise on earth. It is a beautiful island with the most amazing beach and sea. The staff are so friendly and helpful, and they do their best to make everything special. The rooms are spacious, and all have incredible views of the beach and are tastefully decorated. The food and drink are excellent, we preferred the Italian and Steak restaurants as they were cooked to order, but the buffet restaurant has a good variety of food for all tastes.

Absolutely paradise!
Cinnamon Velifushi is simply breathtaking — the place is pure paradise. From the moment we arrived, everything was perfect. The island is stunning, the water is crystal clear, and the vibe is so peaceful and relaxing. What really made the difference was the staff: everyone was incredibly kind, welcoming, and always ready to help with a smile. We felt truly taken care of throughout our stay. Highly recommended for anyone looking to disconnect and enjoy a piece of heaven.

An unforgettable stay in paradise!
We had the pleasure of spending 8 wonderful nights at Cinnamon Velifushi Maldives, and we were absolutely thrilled! From the very first moment, we felt welcomed and completely at ease. The resort is not only stunningly beautiful and perfectly located – a true picture-perfect paradise – but also shines through its incredibly friendly and attentive staff.
A special thank you goes to Mubarak, our waiter, and Jameel from housekeeping. Both took excellent care of us with professionalism, warmth, and dedication, always with a smile.
However, one person truly found a special place in our hearts: Hameesh, the waiter with the biggest heart and the most positive energy we’ve ever encountered in all our travels. His genuine kindness, humor, and uplifting spirit made each day unique and memorable. Hameesh alone would be reason enough for us to return to Cinnamon Velifushi at any time!
The food was delicious and varied, the rooms beautifully furnished, very clean, and well-equipped. The entire resort is well-maintained, peaceful, and idyllic – the perfect place to relax and unwind.
Thank you to the whole team for this unforgettable experience. We will definitely be back!
Andrii Piskarov
Great place with friendly and professional team in each department; place where want to come back. Perfect place for couples and families.
Prepare your memory on a phone to ensure you don’t run out of space to take photos around the island :)

We had a wonderful stay at Cinnamon Velifushi Maldives. The view of the ocean from the water bungalows is breathtaking. If you're into snorkeling and diving we can recommend the dive center on the island, we had some great experiences there. The food was delicious and the staff was more than welcoming. Special thanks to Muje, who always knew what we wanted to drink. We would definitely love to come back!
Szymon Jackowski
Cinnamon Velifushi Maldives... Many factors contribute to the definition of paradise on earth: the wonderful location of the island, high quality of service, very polite and helpful management staff, delicious and fresh, beautifully served dishes, spacious designer villas, cleanliness not only in the villas but on the entire island.
Many possible activities and evening entertainment. In addition, a very rich coral reef.
We can recommend what we experienced to everyone with a clear conscience.

The hotel itself is absolutely beautiful a stunning location, clean and well-maintained rooms, and an overall peaceful atmosphere that made the stay very enjoyable. The rooms were spacious, neat, and exactly as described. I truly appreciated the aesthetic and comfort of the place.
However, I was quite disappointed with the customer service experience. The welcoming lacked warmth, and the responsiveness to requests or questions was slow and unprofessional. There were noticeable lapses in basic hospitality and communication, especially from the island host, Mihad, whose approach and attitude did not meet the standards expected from such a high-end destination.
Additionally, we were moved from one room to another during our stay, and our luggage was left outside the new room under the sun for a considerable amount of time — something we did not expect from a property of this standard.
The service at the main restaurant was also below expectations. The staff there were inattentive & dismissive which greatly affected the overall experience.
Despite the exceptional setting and amenities, the lack of courteous and attentive service was a letdown. I hope the management addresses these issues, as the property itself has so much potential to offer a truly outstanding experience.

Furaveri was exactly what we expected. It was a beautiful tropical private island surrounded by abundant marine life, white coral sand and crystal clear blue ocean. We swam with schools of vibrant tropical fish, stingrays and baby sharks everyday. The Sunrise Ocean Pool Villa (overwater) was amazing and the Sunset Dolphin Cruise was highlight of the trip.
Positive side of the service:
- We celebrated my daughter’s and my husband’s birthday at Aqua restaurant. Maldives culture was infused within the ambiance especially the private room where we celebrated the birthdays. Pribin, the restaurant manager and two of his staff made the birthday celebration very special. Birthday chocolate cake was delicious, the food was delectable and the decoration was superb.
- Buggy drivers were so kind and accommodating.
- Two ladies from Kids Club were wonderful.
- Elvis, the guest service, was nice. He was kind and always ready to help. Our Island host, Ikoo, was not very good so Elvis provided service for us most of the time.
- Cooking station staff at Jaafaiy restaurant were kind. We enjoyed the freshly made omelettes every morning.
Negative side of the service:
- Jaafaiy restaurant was not good. Every single one of waiter staffs were extremely rude. The waiter staff gave me attitude one morning because I ordered two coffees. The food was uncovered so the bugs were having a feast on it.
- Some of the Sports Center staff were impolite and impudent. We were scheduled to do Kayaking for one hour. The staff came into the ocean and told us to return the kayak at 40 minutes mark.
- The cleaning staff was kind and accommodating, but the hygiene standard was terrible. We found a dead cockroach on our bed and my husband was bitten by bed bugs. You cannot escape bugs as it is a tropical island with high temperature so It is crucial for the cleaning staff to maintain the place clean. Furaveri is a five star resort and it needs to meet this standard.
- We requested the bedding sheet to be changed, but it wasn’t changed when we requested the first and second time. The cleaning staff lied to us. When we requested to have the bedding change for the third time, we showed the staff the coffee stains. That coffee stains were the reason that we knew the bedding wasn’t changed before. And then, the staff admitted they didn’t change the bedding.
- Attached photo is the bed bug bites on my husband’s leg. I took a photo when we came home which was a week after.
A couple guests who stayed a unit beside us had same bites from bed bugs.

We stayed at this resort for a week to celebrate a special occasion, splitting our time between the Garden Villa and the Sunset Ocean Pool Villa. While the island itself is stunning, clean, and well-maintained, the management and overall service were deeply disappointing.
From the moment we arrived, our appointed host, Mihad, failed to provide clear information or assistance. On the first day, we stayed in a Garden Villa where the bathtub was broken. Despite informing our host several times, no action was taken until we moved to our next villa. This lack of responsiveness continued throughout our stay.
We had pre-booked several experiences, including a spa treatment and a candlelight dinner, but had to constantly follow up for details. No one took the initiative to update us or coordinate properly. Our candlelight dinner was poorly organized — after receiving our starter, we waited 45 minutes for the main course, with no one checking in despite reminders.
Though we had opted for the premium all-inclusive package, we were repeatedly denied drinks (mocktails, juices) at the bar, being told they weren't included. Only after escalating the issue to our host — again — were we allowed access to what we had already paid for.
Our stay in the ocean pool villa itself was lovely, and we enjoyed the setting. However, another major letdown was the in-pool breakfast. We requested it on the first day but were told it was fully booked and would be scheduled for our last morning. The night before our departure, while settling our bills, we learned for the first time that our flight was scheduled at 7 a.m., meaning we wouldn’t receive our breakfast. No one had informed us earlier — we had to discover it ourselves. When we raised our concern, the staff acted as though the oversight was our fault, which was incredibly disappointing.
There were a few highlights:
1.The Ocean Spice Indian Restaurant was excellent, and Rajesh, who served us, was incredibly kind and helpful — even stepping in when our host wasn’t reachable.
2.The Dive Club staff was wonderful and made our first scuba experience memorable and safe, even though we don't know swimming.
3.The buggy drivers were always friendly and ready to help.
In short, if you're only looking for a scenic getaway and are okay with handling everything yourself, this place delivers on beauty. But if you value good service and a smooth experience, I would recommend choosing another resort.

A True Maldivian Gem – My Third Visit and Still Spectacular!
This was my third time at Furaveri, and once again, it exceeded expectations. Although I once tried switching to a more luxurious resort, I can honestly say that Furaveri stole my heart and remains my favorite. It's the kind of place that perfectly embodies what the Maldives promise: natural beauty, comfort, and heartfelt hospitality.
The island is lush, green, and immaculately maintained — not too big, yet very well organized with excellent facilities including a full spa, fitness center, and diving hub. Rooms are huge, impeccably clean, and well air-conditioned. The beach is breathtaking, with the most turquoise waters I’ve ever seen.
The main restaurant offers a rich variety of high-quality food, with daily changing international dishes. While I couldn't try the specialty restaurants (Mexican, Asian, and Mediterranean) due to my current diet, I visited the locations and they looked simply fantastic — beautifully designed and inviting.
After a week, I asked for some boiled vegetables for my diet, and from that evening on, the chefs prepared for me the most delicate and beautifully presented vegetable dishes — worthy of a Michelin-starred kitchen. It was such a thoughtful and refined gesture. All the staff are genuinely lovely — always smiling, attentive but never intrusive. Their warmth is authentic, and their care for guests makes everyday feel special.
Snorkeling from the beach is a beautiful and relaxing experience, with plenty of marine life and clear waters that invite exploration. Although I didn’t get the chance to try the glass-bottom kayak, it looked amazing — the crystal-clear waters make it feel like you’re floating over an aquarium.
Special mention to Sam, our island host, who was extremely helpful and kind throughout our stay. Shaily, who sometimes stepped in, was equally wonderful. And Pankaj, our housekeeper, went above and beyond every day. We've missed him since we left!
Minor downside: spa treatments are definitely on the expensive side. A massage here costs more than many 5-star hotels in Europe, otherwise I would have received it once a day. But the service and ambiance almost make up for the steep prices.
Overall, Furaveri is a perfect blend of serenity and fun, luxury and nature. Whether you're sipping a cocktail in your private jacuzzi watching the sunset or relaxing under the palms, this place offers unforgettable moments. We’ll certainly be back again. Highly recommended!
Areeb Arshad
The combination of the location, atmosphere, activities, and exceptional hospitality made this one of the most memorable trips we've ever had. We extend our sincere gratitude to our host, Ikoo, who ensured that every aspect of our stay was seamless and worry-free. The experience far exceeded our expectations.

We just spent an amazing week at the Riu Palace Maldives and everything was absolutely perfect. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome, valued, and completely relaxed.
We stayed in a beachfront suite, and it was incredible: spacious, beautifully designed, and just a few steps from the soft white sand and crystal-clear water. Waking up every morning to that view was something we’ll never forget. The food was exceptional. The buffet offered a wide variety of fresh and delicious options, while the à la carte restaurants were equally impressive. Every meal felt like a special experience, and the staff were always kind, attentive, and professional. The resort itself is breathtaking: peaceful, elegant, and immaculately maintained. Whether we were enjoying the infinity pool or not , sipping cocktails at sunset, or simply relaxing under the palm trees, it felt like time stopped in the best possible way. One of the highlights was the genuine warmth of the entire team: from housekeeping to waitstaff to the entertainment crew. Their smiles, energy, and dedication made all the difference. We’ve been to many beautiful places, but Riu Palace Maldives truly stands out. It’s a perfect destination for couples looking to unwind in luxury, surrounded by natural beauty and outstanding service.
We’re already counting the days until we can return. Highly recommended! a slice of heaven on Earth!

You want to pay 5 star hotel rates but stay at a 3 star hotel? Then this is the place you are looking for.
Edit: Service is amazing, staff is super helpful, attentive and nice. Food is great. Sea is pretty good. But the rooms are below 5 star standard. Also the gym is at the other hotel which you have to travel a fair bit of distance to get to where you will find very little equipment.
Daniel Andrews
Island was stunning, Staff by the pool were great. Management non existent even after we raised several issues. Claim to have a la cart restaurants this is a joke. A specialist steak restaurants that only offers one steak and it was the smallest piece of meat you will ever see. The Japanese asked if we had any alleges of which we told them mushrooms they replied with none of what you have ordered has Mushrooms. When the food came everything had mushrooms and the manager just smiled.
Lee Maartensz
We had a wonderful family holiday at this fantastic resort. Powder white sands, beautiful turquoise waters, wonderful accommodation, great food and drinks. However, the best thing about this place is the amazing staff; always smiling, always happy to stop and have a few words, nothing is too much trouble for them. A credit to the RIU brand, they made our stay here more magical than we could ever have thought possible. Thank you all x
Nešo Petric
There are so many beautiful places in the world and life is too short to see them all, but it's worth coming back here. Not even for the food and service, but for the staff.
*Negatives* -
It was my third visit to the Maldives, and I honestly didn't expect that in this paradise on earth you could encounter with dirty water in the sea, and the impossibility of swimming during low tide.
Thanks to the low tide and the nearby reefs, constantly pounded by waves, a lot of seaweed and millions of bubbles appear in the water on the beach. Of course, the hotel is not to blame for this, but it is good to be aware of it.
We had a room with direct access to the beach, and it is simply impossible not to bring sand into the room with you. I don't understand why there is no small foot shower at the transition from the beach to the terrace. We had to fill a plastic trash can with water to wash our feet.
I also didn't expect to fly halfway around the world, but when you fly from Male to this island, the domestic airline Manta takes all your lighters, and the first thing you have to do is visit a shop on the other island, Riu Atoll, and buy a new one. It's good to know for smokers that a pack of Marlboro light cigarettes costs 25 USD here.
Thats all for negatives.
*Room*
The room was perfectly cleaned every day at our request (only because of the aforementioned sand from the beach and the lack of a foot shower). We turned off the air conditioning for the night, it was more than enough for us.
I have to raise the beds. I always have trouble sleeping away from home, but these beds were perfect. I slept like a baby.
*Beach*
The beach is beautiful on the sunset side, beautiful white sand, twice a day cleaning of corals and seaweed. On the other sunrise side, it is broken by water and in places you had to jump half a meter from the sand into the water. There were also excavators that replenished the sand. On the other side, on this sunrise side of the island, much better swimming and cleaner water.
*Restaurants*
Reservations in restaurants that require it worked perfectly through the app. The food was very good. In the main Palm restaurant, a large selection of dishes, something for everyone, everything is very high quality, fresh, varied, but nothing will knock your socks off in terms of taste. Maybe it's because I'm a chef cuisine by profession for many years and I have a refined tongue. Restaurant perfect clean and nice.
*Entertainment*
Every day Bingo at the pool bar around 4:00 PM. Not interest in it.
From 4:30 PM to 6:00 PM DJ. Sometimes it was even fun, because in addition to the DJ there was also a guy with a saxophone and a great guy with electric drums and they gave the music a special twist. Otherwise I didn't care whether the music was played by the DJ or just the equipment behind the bar.
In the evening, sometimes DJ, sometimes band. It's not that the band played badly, but there is very little interaction with the audience. I would recommend having a karaoke party twice a week. A lot of people sang at the table with the band and I think they would even dare to go on stage if there was the opportunity. And I would definitely enjoy that much more than semi-professionally singing world hits.
It's more fun at Riu Atoll, but we liked our island much better.
I really appreciated the fact that you could leave your phone, sunglasses, cigarettes, whatever on the table by the beach and by the pool, and you didn't have to worry about someone stealing it. Even for few hours. I'm not entirely sure if it would be the same on the other island in Riu Atoll, as the clientele was quite different there.
*Stuff*
As I started, so I will end. The staff is absolutely perfect. Mr. Saleem in the restaurant, Sanju, Ashram, Mahdi, Miss Daisy in the bar, in fact, everyone (hard to remember all names) is absolutely friendly and always makes sure that you have everything you need. From the reception to the maid. They are the treasure of this hotel.
If we return to this island again, it will be mainly because of the staff.
So Stuff, Thank you all.

Amazing island. The best we've stayed at in the Maldives. We'll definitely return. Everything was faultless. Food and drink options were incredible on the all inclusive package. Accommodation big, spacious clean and private.
Alf Jonny Høines
Our stay at Dhigali Resort in the Maldives was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we landed in the Maldives until we left, we felt completely taken care of. The resort's staff provided a seamless experience, ensuring every detail was perfect from the start.
The resort itself is a tropical paradise. The white sandy beaches, crystal-clear waters, and lush greenery create an atmosphere of pure relaxation. Our beach villa was beautifully designed, blending luxury and comfort, with direct access to the beach and lagoon. Waking up to the sound of waves and breathtaking views every morning was simply magical.
One of the highlights of our stay was the incredible marine life just steps from our villa. We were lucky enough to spot turtles and reef sharks, along with an abundance of vibrant, colorful fish while snorkeling right outside our door. The underwater world surrounding Dhigali is truly spectacular and added an unforgettable element to our trip.
What truly set Dhigali apart was the level of service. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, attending to every request with genuine warmth and professionalism. Whether it was organizing excursions, recommending activities, or providing impeccable dining experiences, the attention to detail was unmatched.
Speaking of dining, the variety of restaurants at the resort was impressive. Each meal was a culinary journey, offering fresh, flavorful dishes that catered to every palate. The sunset cocktails at the beach bar were a perfect way to unwind after a day of exploring the island.
We also had the opportunity to enjoy some of the resort's activities, from snorkeling in vibrant coral reefs to relaxing at the spa. Each experience was well-organized and added to the overall enjoyment of our stay.
Leaving Dhigali was bittersweet, as we were reluctant to say goodbye to such a beautiful place and the people who made our stay so special. We cannot recommend this resort highly enough for anyone seeking a luxurious, serene, and unforgettable Maldivian getaway. Dhigali truly exceeded all of our expectations.
Egor Popelyaev
Great resort. It has everything you need for the unforgettable vacations. The villas and bungalows are very comfortable. Service is just excellent. Personal is super helpful and responsible. There are several restaurants which offer big variety of delicious food from all over the world. And a, as great surprise, there is a cafeteria with very delicious coffee and deserts. And of course spectacular views, white sand beaches and crystal clear water.
Noha Ahmed
What to say! It’s beyond words, a magical experience that will be cherished forever. We had an incredible experience at the resort! The staff's hospitality was outstanding; they went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. From the warm welcome at check-in to the prompt assistance throughout our stay, every interaction was delightful. The check-in process was smooth and efficient, and the check-out experience was equally seamless. The dining options were fantastic, offering a diverse and delicious menu. A heartfelt thank you to Christian Szabo for consistently ensuring customer satisfaction; his dedication truly stood out. Kudos to Simba for the amazing animation that added a unique touch to our experience. Special appreciation to the entire team at Casper's Restaurant and all the bars/cafe – their warmth and service made our dining experiences memorable. Your staff's commitment to excellence is commendable, creating a lasting impression on our stay.. The resort's commitment to customer satisfaction was evident in every aspect. Ending our stay with Christmas tree decorations on the beach was truly amazing. It added a special festive touch that made our experience even more memorable. I highly recommend this paradise for anyone seeking a luxurious and rejuvenating getaway. Thank you for a truly memorable stay – we can't wait to return!

Absolutely amazing. I’ve been there 4 times. My favorite destination. The staff is well organised, kind and you can surely count on them. The food is phenomenal. Fresh fish, well prepared and great drinks!
Smeetha D'Souza
Our stay at Ihuru Dhawa island was a dream-come true. On a paradise island with crystal-clear waters and a vibrant lively riff showcasing sharks, brightly colored fishes and tortoises - which I have otherwise only seen in documentary films.
The professional staff has an eye for details, whilst offering you a down to earth atmosphere as well as creating a vibe that makes you feel at home the moment you put your first step on the island. The manager Mr. Simaad Abdulla and Julia, personally greeted us on the Island at 5 am. Which is too early in the morning. We felt so very welcomed!
Ihuru is a picturesque cozy island with modern amenities as well as a luxurious spa, fitness facilities which include yoga sessions and everything else that is required for a comfortable and relaxing holidays.
The dining experience in a postcard ambience is remarkable, made even more special by the kind staff with awesome smiles. Thank you Sujina for your professional approach!
I have such fond memories of the young man at the breakfast buffet, always preparing fruit plates or juices with a warm smile. Nice way to start the day!
The young Chef Pawan at the egg counter was equally delightful, skillfully making different types of eggs, waffles, and pancakes. The creative pancake presentations brought joy to the children. My daughter was definitely impressed.
The culinary highlights are outstanding, where the chef Rupankar didn’t hesitate to make any extra effort to accommodate our special requests. He even came to the table later that evening to confirm that all was up to our expectations. We had the best Fish ever.
Although it was 5 months ago April 2024 we remember the young apprentice Abdulla Maaniu - who would serve us during all meals with a bright smile. We looked forward daily to see him during the meals.
My husband celebrated his 55th Birthday at Dhawa Ihuru - we couldn’t have found a better place to celebrate this special day. Sujina the restaurant hostess as well as the room service decorated not only the dining table but also the villa. My husband was speechless. We were very grateful for all the exceptional effort the staff took to make such beautiful memories for us.
The island's luxurious spa offers a variety of massage therapies. Dr. Sharma is dedicated to the well-being of the guests. I had three acupuncture sessions for my frozen shoulder. The treatment included a soothing shoulder massage and exercises, which were both effective and comforting. Dr. Sharma is a true professional, and I appreciated his holistic approach that addresses the body, mind, and soul - not just the shoulder.
My daughter and me experienced our first parasailing activity around the Ihuru island. Whilst taking on the birds view we were guided by the captain Yamin and Athoof in a very caring and professional manner. It was a breath taking view and an unforgettable experience.
Someday we shall return to Ihuru - to these white sands, to these infinite shades of blue, and most of all to these warm and courteous people who made our holidays unforgettable!

Angsana illuru is a wonderful island resort. The staff are all courteous and very helpful and smiling.
The villas are so beautiful, has a pvt sit out, with long swings and open bed sit out besides beach beds. All villas lead to the beach about 50mtrs from villa. The rooms are cleaned I guess 3times a day.
Drawback are no swimming pool, no gym area, no recreational area and the scuba equipment are of cheap quality given for free but it's easily breaks into the ocean and chargeable 50$ each for each loss. Please take your own scuba equipment.

A classic gem, a perfect little robinson island, well preserved and if not an island resort with the best house reef in capital Atoll.

very nice! I love it

A Truly Magical Stay – Made Unforgettable by Niki and the Sheraton Team
From the moment we stepped into Sheraton Maldives, we knew we were in for something special—but what we experienced exceeded every expectation.
Every single detail of our stay was flawlessly taken care of, and we were truly made to feel like valued guests at every step. A heartfelt thank you to our incredible relationship manager, Niki, whose warmth, attentiveness, and thoughtful gestures made our holiday unforgettable. She went above and beyond, checking in on us daily and keeping us informed of special experiences around the resort. Her personal touch, especially in making our little one feel so special, was truly heartwarming. It’s rare to meet someone who embodies hospitality so effortlessly.
Our beach cottage was an absolute dream—the kind of place you want to freeze in time. Waking up and stepping directly onto the pristine beach with that breathtaking view was surreal. It was our own slice of paradise.
As if that wasn’t enough, the final night upgrade to the overwater villa with a private pool was the cherry on top. Watching the sun dip into the ocean from that spot will stay with us forever.
Sheraton Maldives is more than a beautiful resort—it’s a place filled with warmth, care, and soul. Thank you to the entire team for a magical stay and a very special thanks again to Niki—you made all the difference.
We can’t wait to return.
Abdulmajeed Abdullah
A peaceful and well-maintained resort combining comfort, nature, and great snorkeling spots just off the beach. The pool was always clean and relaxing. Some improvements are needed in lunch menu options for kids, and the welcome/farewell experience could be more refined for a 5-star resort. Still, a memorable stay overall
Philip Jury
Family of 5, grandmother, 2 year old and 4 year old. We stayed for 5 days.
It’s absolutely glorious here!
It’s a 15 minute boat ride to the island. So perfect for the little ones. We had a pool villa. Again it’s a wonderful little pool for the girls and the sofa can easily turn into a comfortable bed. The cot was also very good condition.
I would definitely recommend this location for young families.
The check in was the only thing that lost the star. The room wasn’t available and the relax room was full. With the children having just gone through quite a bit of travelling it was anything but relaxing for us and those others there. I would suggest there be a protocol for young families so we don’t disturb the peace :)
Mrinmoy Nag
My family and I are delighted to stay at the Sheraton Maldives! It was an wonderful experience staying at this resort. In general, I have always loved staying at Sheraton properties and the level of attention and services provided to elite members at Sheraton are unparalleled. We were picked up from the airport by speedboat (unless you book a meal plan in advance, it's $80 round trip/person). It's a 10 minute fast and furious ride from the airport to the Hotel. Once we arrived, we were greeted by Shurufa and her team. Shurufa took my phone number and kept it touch throughout the stay through Whatsapp. Hany dropped us off to the lounge and we waited there a couple of hours before the room was ready, since we arrived really early in the morning. We reserved a Beachfront Cottage and the room was exceptional. Shurufa gave us the option to stay at different types of room for different days (please don't expect this in high season and put undue pressure on your host - June was relatively less crowded). We opted to stay in only two rooms. The Beach front cottage has an outdoor shower and a bathtub. The patio is on the beach and the water is 100 ft away! On our second day we moved to a Oceanfront Villa, which was amazing and quiet. We loved them both. The beachfront was close to all restaurants and beach activities, whereas the Oceanfront was more secluded with an infinity pool to watch the waves for eternity. We had lunch at Masala hut on the first day, as that was the closest and we were terribly jet lagged. The biriyani was excellent, and the fish curry was OK. We went for dinner at Anchorage Bar and ate there a couple more times. We loved the atmosphere at the Anchorage. On our last night, they had a live band perform. The menu at Anchorage had pizza, pasta and seafood options. We went to Masala Hut for another dinner. The Crab curry was awesome. We had a non-Veg thali for two as well, however, some of the curries were too heavy for us. We did not have a chance to try Ban Thai (which requires reservation). I really wanted to try the Beach front buffet, but the dates did not coincide with our stay. The Sea Salt and Chop Stix were closed during our stay, and we never had lunch at Kakuni Hut since the breakfast buffet at Feast was heavy! This brings us to the Feast buffet – excellent selection of food from around the world is available and the service was great. Food is expensive, but it is true for all resorts in Maldives unless you are staying at Male. Breakfast was included for two of us, since I was a Titanium member. The breakfast buffet was relatively cheap (with tax and service ~$38) given excellent selections. We snorkeled at the beach (which is protected from the sea by a reef and hence calm). The water was crystal clear. There are not too many reefs, but I was able to find a few flocked by variety of fishes. On the overwater bungalow side (North) there should be more spots, but water is deeper and less calm. The hotel offers reasonably priced trips where you can snorkel at special locations, and you can also borrow snorkeling gears for free! There is a Gym near Kakuni hut, a tennis court and a soccer (football for normal people) field. I practiced a few kicks on my last day as it was cooler. Since we had our own pool, we did not avail ourselves of the big pool in the restaurant area. Overall, an excellent property with amazing service. As a Titanium member, I felt specially welcomed but they served everyone well. I would recommend this property to people of all ages (honeymooners to families with children and retired folks). I would love to go back when I have enough money or points (this trip was booked with points). June is hot; it rains sometimes and goes away. Mostly we had clear days. We did not mind the rain as it made it cooler.

Myself and my husband stayed at this fantastic resort last week for our honeymoon. We had the most amazing hotel and experience. From the moment we were collected at the airport to our seamless stay we could not fault this resort. It’s extremely clean and well organised. The facilities were fantastic and vast there is a fully equipped gym, a tennis court, life sized chess and a football pitch we used! Extreme Maldives was faultless they allowed us to use water sport equipment as part of our all inclusive for 30 minutes a day. We had snorkelling equipment for the whole week. We also booked a nurse shark snorkelling excursion. The staff were so calmly and skilled in the water, the experience snorkelling was life changing. The all inclusive was very much worth it the menus are very vast and full of flavour! We cannot fault this resort and would be so thankful if we could one day return.
We were also given on our first full day an engraved wooden plank to place on a tree in the honeymoon garden it was such a nice sentiment.
Thank you so much for your service! Hope to see you all again!

Our recent stay at The Le Méridien Maldives Resort & Spa was nothing short of a dream. From the moment we arrived, we were enveloped in an atmosphere of tranquility and understated luxury that truly made our anniversary trip simply blissful.
A delightful surprise awaited us upon check-in – an upgrade to an ocean villa with a sunset view. This was an absolute treat! Waking up to the turquoise expanse of the Indian Ocean and witnessing breathtaking sunsets from our private deck became a cherished part of our daily routine. The villa itself was beautifully appointed, offering both privacy and stunning vistas.
One of the highlights of our culinary experience was undoubtedly our time spent at Velaa. I have vegetarian dietary requirements, and I was so incredibly touched by the exceptional service provided by the chef, Pradeep. He went above and beyond to accommodate my needs with such warmth and genuine kindness. Not only did he ensure there were delicious vegetarian options available, but he also offered to create something special off the menu, which was truly appreciated. His attentiveness and care made our dining experiences at Velaa truly memorable.
The resort also made our anniversary feel incredibly special. We were greeted in our villa with a lovely message on our bed, along with a thoughtful bottle of Prosecco and a delicious cake.
The staff were consistently friendly and attentive, ensuring our every need was met with a smile.
Our trip to The Le Méridien Maldives Resort & Spa was an unforgettable experience. The stunning location, the exceptional culinary care from Chef Pradeep, and the thoughtful anniversary gestures all contributed to a truly relaxing and simply blissful getaway.

One word - amazing! My husband and I stayed 6 nights in a sunrise overwater villa on the west jetty. The villa was lovely and clean at all times. Kudos to the cleaning associates cleaning villa 225! We saw rays, fishes & sea turtles from our villa deck. The views were picturesque and picture perfect. Tides were low in the morning and it was perfect for snorkelling (for someone who is terrified of waters).
Dining options were sufficient and breakfast is always a joy with Emsy (hope I got her name right) and the breakfast crew. Emsy is jovial and friendly, nothing is too much for her. We also dined at Tebamsau 4 out of the 6 nights we were there and the food wowed us all the time. We particularly enjoyed the makis and miso gindara (try and thank me later😉). The crew at Tebamasu was fantastic as well. They even remembered our last night and wrote us a sweet message on the desert. It is these little things that make our stay exceptionally special. Terderlion steak at Veela is also a must-try!
All in all, we had a blast at Le Meridien and cannot wait to be back! ❤️❤️❤️
Zainab Alghanim
Absolutely stunning resort.The overwater villa was luxurious with breathtaking ocean views. Staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. Amazing food, crystal-clear water, and total relaxation. A perfect getaway—highly recommend! 🌴🌅
Stephanie L
My (now!) fiancé and I had the most amazing stay at Le Meridien. Such a beautiful and well-kept resort that doesn’t miss any details. I also appreciate the care staff had for both guests and the marine life. In particular, we want to shout out several outstanding staff that went above & beyond for us! Sanal at Waves, Hifaz at Velaa, and Mifu, Nutte, and Miste at Water Sports. We also had a fantastic photographer during our photoshoot as well. Thank you all, and we’ll be back very soon!
Hungry Will
This destination has been on our bucket list for quite some time. What better opportunity than to visit Le Meridien Thilamaafushi during our 20th Wedding Anniversary. My wife and I spent five nights here in early May and loved every minute of our stay.
It all started with a seaplane transfer from Male to Le Meridien. This was such a unique experience that we will not forget anytime soon. From the moment you arrive the staff makes you feel very special. As the seaplane pulls up to the dock guests are welcome with a staff line up of smiling faces and island drums. Soon we are all whisked away in golf carts to the reception area known as the Hub. Here you meet your resort concierge who is there to take care of your every request.
Our's was a young gentleman by the name of Ali, he was the friendliest guy who made sure we understood he was available to make any arrangements needed while at the resort. Ali then escorted us to our overwater villa and to our surprise had been specially decorated for our anniversary complete with champagne. He would prove himself to be an invaluable resource for setting up our excursions, dining reservations, and even inter-island rides. Day or night, Ali was always a quick call or IM away.
While on resort we had countless snorkel sessions right off our deck that was a mere step ladder away from the amazing turquoise waters the area is famous for. So much sea life just a quick dip away from our villa home base. We saw everything from Morey Eels, Trigger fish, Puffer fish, crabs, black tip reef sharks and a million other fish all around. We loved it so much we decided to partake in snorkeling excursions with the dive shop. The team at the dive shop are so friendly and accommodating. Special thanks to Alex and Pyng, both of whom made our experience dolphin tour and turtle trips memorable.
Dining at the resort was a highlight of this trip, the food was exceptionally delicious. My wife and I chose the bed and breakfast option, this included the breakfast buffet at the Turquoise restaurant each morning. This was a great spread of food that included several Maldivian local dishes along with way too many other international options. Our choice gave us the flexibility to dine at any of the restaurants for lunch or dinner having access to the full menu. The staff at each restaurant were so kind and attentive, one person who stood out was Abby at the Turquoise. We struck up a conversation with her during one of our dinners and she taught us a lot about the area and filled us in on life in the Maldives.
The Spa services were great and just what my wife had been needing to elevate her relaxation. She came away so impressed with the facilities and spa staff.
Upon our departure day, it was tough to say goodbye to such a beautiful property and the relaxation we so needed. The timing of this trip was the off season so the resort was no full and we felt as if we had the whole island to ourselves most of the time. We will definitely return to this wonderful destination. Thank You Le Meridien.

We really liked the Sun Siyam Vilu Reef Resort. The island is small and beautiful and stands out in particular due to the great vegetation and good service. All the staff are always friendly and attentive. We had an east-facing water villa. This meant we could stay in the shade all day and had a pleasant breeze. The water villa is very spacious for three people, as it also has a large terrace, and thanks to the high privacy screen you can enjoy complete privacy.
Our special thanks go to Sham and Simal, who looked after us very warmly right from the start.
We would also like to thank Rakesh for the great room service. He was very attentive and always made sure our room was in perfect condition.
Chaminda, the chef, often spoiled us with extraordinary curries from his home country Sri Lanka. We would also like to say a big thank you to the entire service team, especially Surja, Juri, Ali, Shakil, Kushal and Dilshan.
We can definitely recommend this resort and will hopefully be back soon.

We were privileged to spend 12 unforgettable nights at the stunning Sun Siyam Vilu Reef in the Maldives in May – and it was simply paradise on earth! 🌴☀️🐠 As an Austrian, you usually always have something to complain about, but not here.
A very special thank you goes to the outstanding housekeeping team, especially to Siva, who transformed our room into a wellness oasis every day with great attention to detail. Everything was always spotlessly clean, lovingly decorated, and simply perfect – thank you, Siva!
We were also completely thrilled with the cuisine. A huge compliment and a heartfelt thank you to the best chefs we've ever experienced:
Mozammel, Kiran, Younos, Jabir – and of course to the amazing celebrity chef Chaminda, who continually surprised and spoiled us with his creations. Whether breakfast, lunch, or dinner – every meal was a highlight!
The service was also first-class. A huge thank you to Chris and Shayan for their friendly, attentive, and always warm service. You made us feel truly welcome.
A special thank you goes to Niyaaf, our Guest Relations Manager, who took excellent care of us throughout our entire stay. Whether it was small requests, organizing things, or simply a friendly chat – Niyaaf was always there for us and played a huge part in making us feel like we were in paradise.
Many thanks to the entire team at Sun Siyam Vilu Reef – we will definitely be back! ❤️

I had an amazing experience with my family at Vilu Reef. Everything was top notch, the environment was super welcoming, the staff were all friendly and made our experience 100% better, the island is absolutely beautiful and well taken care of.
I would like to give some special mentions to specific staff at the resort. In the Aqua restaurant all the staff were amazing and friendly, but our experience was even more special due to the waiter that took care of us every night which was Shakil and his lovely supervisor Dilshan. These two staff members made the holiday so fun and welcoming, making us want to eat dinner at the restaurant every night due to their friendly demeanour and welcoming ways. The last, but definitely not least, person I want to give a special and separate mention to was our island guide and helper Adhu. He made sure that our stay at the island was relaxing and that all our problems that arose was taken care of swiftly and stress free.
Overall our stay at Sun Siyam Vilu Reef was absolutely amazing and we would recommend 1000% to anyone that wants to have a relaxing holiday with their family or even as a couple.
hela kamoun
The island offers a serene and peaceful atmosphere, perfect for a relaxing getaway.
The service was outstanding, the food was excellent, and the entire place was impeccably clean. The massage experience was truly exceptional.
A heartfelt thank you to Simal, who was attentive to every detail and ensured everything ran smoothly.
The host maintained a high standard of cleanliness and hospitality.
Each evening was made even more enjoyable with quality music and a pleasant ambiance.
Árpád Molnár
We spent 13 wonderful days in the paradise called Sun Siyam Vilu Reef. After landing in Male we felt that we had arrived. We could already enjoy Sun Siyam lodge during waiting the seaplane. After arriving in the island we had a warm welcome with drum, conch horn, coconut drink...
Niyaaf was our extremely devoted host, whatever we asked for immediately, he took care of it without delay, we really appreciate his effort.
Our boys love to play soccer, so they quickly got to know the resort futsal team, whom we managed to support with all our hearts in the inter-island championship 2 times and help them win. Many thanks to Adam and Nimal and the team for giving us this experience.
We were very lucky with the weather, so we were able to enjoy every minute of the Maldives and the resort.
We were able to snorkel a lot, where we also made many friends, who kept us safe throughout. Akko, Migey, thank you very much for the many experiences and care! It was an experience to swim with the biggest fish (Whale shark) in the world!
The Vilu Reef house coral reef is amazing, thanks to the location of the island (entrance to the Atoll). You really don't want to go somewere else for snorkling, you just float on the water and you are greeted by rays, sharks, turtles and millions of fish with millions of species. It would be difficult to list the wonders we saw here.
We also tried water sports, so we were able to participate in the Jet-ski, banana and snorkeling safari tours, we really enjoyed them.
The spa part of the resort is also outstanding. Both in terms of staff and infrastructure.
We most enjoyed the amazing Aqua restaurant, where we spent our 3 meals. Nittin's team took care of us with love and friendship. Jazlan, Sagar, Dilshan, Bhawdeep, Mozammel, Ashmita, Juri… and all those who work in the restaurant, we will never forget you!
Big thanks to Matiur, who was taking care of our villa, cleaned up twice a day and making suprises for the kids with palm leaves decorations on the bed.
We say goodbye to paradise with tears in our eyes and hope that one day we can come back and experience the wonder again.

Our lovely stay at Mercure Kooddoo Resort was truly unforgettable, and we are happy to return home with so many wonderful memories and experiences. The location, the beach with its turquoise waters, the pool bar, the bungalows... everything was simply amazing! ✨
The resort offers incredible opportunities to dive and snorkel near the reef, where you can see a wide variety of marine life, including sharks and turtles. You can also enjoy paddleboarding, canoeing, sunset cruises, and even yoga and meditation sessions with Jazz 🔝🔝. There's also a gym, a wonderful spa and many other activities available.
The resort is managed in a very warm and personal way. ALL the employees, known as Heartists, are incredibly kind, welcoming, and helpful—from reception to maintenance, gardening, and housekeeping. ❤
The food is delicious and varied, and the staff in both the restaurant and the kitchen are always smiling and ready to assist. Special thanks to Deepak, Selvakumar, Desta, and all the amazing chefs, as well as Poopy, Manvi, Sameera, Allina, and many others whose names we can’t recall but who gave us outstanding service in the restaurant. 💫
Last but not least, the entire resort is spotless and very well managed. The bungalows are beautiful, clean, and extremely comfortable.
A heartfelt thank you for making our stay a dream come true! ❤

Mercure Kooddoo Island Exceeded Every Expectation!
Simply put, this resort is beautiful! The warm and welcoming staff are the heart and soul of this resort. They go above and beyond, their genuine care and dedication to guest service is truly exceptional. Every interaction felt personal and sincere, making us feel like valued guests. They truly made our 15th wedding anniversary memorable.
Our room was lovely, a perfect blend of colour, comfort and privacy with breathtaking views, creating a serene sanctuary to unwind in.
And the food? Absolutely delicious! The variety and quality of the dishes were outstanding, showcasing fresh ingredients and creative presentations. Dining and talking with staff at the Alita and poolside bar was a highlight of ours.
The snorkelling just topped off our holiday. Exploring the coral reefs and encountering the diverse marine life was an unforgettable experience.
Mercure Kooddoo Island is more than just a resort; it's an experience. It's a place where you can truly disconnect, relax, and be completely taken care of. A definite 5-star experience!

Our stay in the Maldives was nothing short of perfection. The staff went above and beyond in every possible way — truly outstanding service. The food was exceptional, the setting breathtaking, and every detail contributed to what became a dream vacation. Thanks to them, this place will forever remain unforgettable. Simply perfect

This resort was absolutely AMAZING! First time in the Maldives and loved every minute of it - just wish we could have stayed longer! So relaxing, room and views were amazing and the food was excellent. Staff was so friendly and accommodating as well. Loved everything about it!
Suveer Gharat
We had an absolutely amazing stay at Mercure Maldives Kooddoo Resort! We experienced both the overwater villa and the beach villa — each was beautiful, private, and offered stunning views. The staff were warm, attentive, and made us feel truly welcome.
Snorkeling right off the villa was unforgettable — crystal-clear water, vibrant coral reefs, and a wide variety of marine life. The food was out of this world — every dish was delicious and beautifully presented. This place exceeded all expectations. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a peaceful, luxury escape in paradise!

I had a truly wonderful time during my stay everything was impressively well-organized and close to perfect. From the moment we landed, we were warmly welcomed by staff at the airport and transferred to the island with a complimentary 45-minute boat ride, which was a great way to start the trip.
The island offers a great variety of dining options. The main buffet restaurant, Lime & Chili, served delicious meals throughout the day, and the snack bar, Bay Rouge, was perfect for enjoying unlimited cocktails and light snacks in a relaxing atmosphere.
What made the experience even better was the level of service. The entire staff was attentive and professional, and I especially want to thank Arsham for his kindness and support throughout our stay. He always responded quickly and did his best to make sure we were comfortable.
There are also several activities available on the island, such as jet skiing and electric skateboarding. While enjoyable, they were a bit overpriced, and it's good to know that taxes are added on top of the listed prices.
On our check-out day, the staff continued to be thoughtful and welcoming — they even offered us a complimentary lunch before we left, which was a very nice touch and not something you see everywhere.
Overall, I was extremely satisfied with the experience. The cleanliness, comfort, food, and hospitality were all top-notch. I would definitely love to return in the future and highly recommend it to anyone considering a stay.

My wife and I spent our honeymoon at VARU by Atmosphere, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. The hotel and the island itself are absolutely stunning—paradise on earth. Our arrival was seamless, with a smooth boat transfer from Male airport, and we were warmly welcomed as soon as we arrived.
We stayed for 14 nights and found ourselves constantly engaged in one of the many activities the hotel offers. The complimentary snorkeling excursions were fantastic, but the paid larger excursions were absolutely breathtaking. We had the incredible opportunity to swim with sharks, turtles, and countless fish—it was an experience we’ll never forget.
We stayed in an overwater villa (without a pool) and could not have been happier with our choice. The sunsets were simply stunning, and having direct access to the water right from our villa was incredible. Just be aware that the water can be a bit choppy, so some swimming skills are required to enjoy it safely.
The food at the restaurant was excellent, offering both Western and Asian cuisines. The menu leans a bit more toward Asian flavors, so if you're not a fan of diverse Asian foods, it might not be the best fit. However, for us, it was a treat!
The service throughout our stay was top-tier—attentive, precise, and genuinely focused on making our experience special. If you're looking for a luxurious, 5-star honeymoon experience in the Maldives, without breaking the bank, look no further than VARU by Atmosphere. We would highly recommend it!
Jai Yadav
Amazing experience. Their overwater villa with pool is an amazing property to stay in. One can walk across the whole island in 20 minutes and enjoy all the restaurants & activities they have to keep their guests entertained. Highly recommend.
Rafael
Absolutely wonderful Resort. The location, the room, the restaurants and bars... The staff will really make your stay unforgettable: always with a smile and always there to help. Big thanks to all of them, because nothing would be the same without their effort and committed! The buffet is also excellent (great variety and different every day, including some special themes during the week), and the three restaurants (including Kaage, specialized in Maldivian food, where you have a nice insight of Maldivian life) are really worth a visit. The music, stylish and elegant all around, is also part of the experience, with special mention to the wonderful Cuban duo who play both during dinner and in the bar on different days. And the bar by the swimming pool and the beach, what to say? A perfectly managed area where you can enjoy from your morning swim till the sunset by the sea... Perfect holidays in a perfect place, this is definitely a great resort!

We just got back from an incredible stay at VARU by Atmosphere, and I honestly can’t say enough good things. Yes, like many places in the Maldives, the views are breathtaking and the beaches are stunning, but what truly made this trip special for us was the genuine care and warmth we received from the staff from start to finish.
We stayed in a Beach Villa, which turned out to be the perfect setup for our little family. If you’re traveling with kids, I highly recommend it. our children loved stepping right outside to play in the sand anytime they wanted. The villa was spacious and comfortable. If I had to suggest one thing, it would be to add a bit more wardrobe and sink space in the bathroom area. It’s not a deal breaker, but it would make things a little easier.
Traveling with an infant can be overwhelming, but VARU made it so much more manageable. When we arrived, we requested a bottle sterilizer, baby bathtub, and high chair, and the hotel had everything ready. That thoughtful preparation made such a difference and helped us settle in quickly.
The dining experiences at VARU were a big highlight for us:
NU Restaurant was a standout. It felt like true fine dining with a stunning view. I ordered the saffron risotto, and it completely changed how I feel about risotto—creamy, rich, and full of flavor.
KAAGÉ gave us a wonderful taste of Maldivian cuisine. The food was flavorful with a bit of a spicy kick, to keep things interesting!
Charcoal had a beautiful setup, though the food didn’t quite meet our expectations.
Lime & Chili offered a great selection of international dishes, and everything we tried was delicious and satisfying.
On-Site Clinic
We visited the clinic a couple of times during our stay, and we’re so grateful for Dr. Tha. He was professional, gentle, and great with our son, his calm approach really helped during a stressful moment.
A Few People Who Made Our Stay:
The people at VARU truly made our experience unforgettable:
Henni, the food manager, was amazing. Our children have food allergies, and she personally made sure every meal was safe and enjoyable for them. Her attention to detail and kindness meant the world to us.
Chef Ishan made us feel so welcomed. His Um Ali and cheesecake were absolutely unforgettable, and he even surprised us with special treats just for our family.
Chef Radhwan served up some of the best pasta we had on the trip—definitely worth trying!
At Lime & Chili, Antarika and Chayya were always there to help with our baby and made every meal feel relaxed and enjoyable.
Dulce and Sandani at the Kids Club were incredible with our children, so patient, creative, and genuinely caring.
And to the entire VARU Team, thank you all so much. If I’ve missed anyone by name, please know your kindness and efforts did not go unnoticed. You truly made our stay unforgettable, and we’re already looking forward to returning one day.

Olena Niekolaidi
truly love this magical island and the hotel.
We are returning to this hotel for the third time already, and each time we are happy.
The last time, we came back thanks to the tennis coach Dayan! If you love tennis – you definitely need to meet him!!! He gave us new knowledge, and it was so wonderful to combine relaxation with training and communication with the coach.
We would like to thank the general manager and our personal assistant, Jasmin! She took care of us as if we were her close family…
And a special thanks to our housekeeper who kept our water villa clean and cozy. His name is Jameel. He truly deserves special recognition. His work made me happy…
I adore the SPA on this island)) and the entire atmosphere!!!
Dr. Samina Ashiq
Paradise on earth:
We had a wonderful stay for 6 nights as a family of 6, 2 adults, 3 teenage and a child, we travelled for the second time to Maldives and it was our first time to Emerald selected by my eldest daughter for who's 16th birthday we travelled and I have no words to describe the stay, hospitality, food and the courteous staff. It was beyond words, everything was superb. Rohit, their General Manager, such a gem of a person and he is everywhere. Always greeting the guests, welcoming, saying good bye, checking on us and other guests. Jean, our main person during our stay, she is such a wonder lady and always available. They are so organized, every morning we as a family had a wattsapp group with Jean and we would get days schedule. Restaurants are with amazing foods, fresh fruits and drinks, cocktails just woww, cant say enough and the hospitality of the staff every where. Restaurant staff are so kind and friendly and welcoming. We loved our stay, weather was a bit hot but extremely pleasant towards the evenings and last 2 days of our stay it became extremely nice and it rained. We stayed ion water villa and did photo shoot, that also turned out amazing. Love love loved it. They had provided us with cycles and it added so much fun for us.
Geeta Varsani
Celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary at Emerald Spa Resort Maldives was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, we were treated like royalty, greeted with champagne, and smiles that made us feel instantly at home. The overwater villa was stunning, offering the perfect mix of luxury and privacy, with panoramic views that took our breath away each morning.
Every detail of our stay was crafted with care. The romantic candlelight dinner on the beach was a highlight, personalised, intimate, and Unforgettable. The Staff went above and beyond, even surprising us with a beautifully decorated room and a celebratory cake.
Emerald Spa Resort didn’t just host our anniversary, it elevated it into a once-in-a-lifetime experience. If you're looking for a place to celebrate love, this is where unforgettable memories are made.
With great appreciation and heartfelt thanks to .......
Laxman engineer management, tour, behind the scenes of the resort, very knowledgeable.
Raj head of food/beverage, we appreciated how you went above and beyond for us and for making us feel welcomed
Govinda head of security, such a friendly character
Giri superb dinner waiter
Visham villa host you provided more than excellent service, we were in particular impressed with the speedy response and everything requested was immediately taken care of.
Rohit Chhettri General Manager, very welcoming and enthusiastic about providing exceptional service. These are just a few staff that iv mentioned but overall each and every staff member of Emerald spa resort are so friendly, polite, knowledgeable, and most got to know our names within a day or so of us being there, would definitely visit again soon x
Thank you
I would like to also mention Deepal housekeeping for having such amazing staff and adding personal touches to our room, the staff are so talented.
Pankaj was very accommodating to our requests. Mahil was also an exceptional waiter. We cannot keep talking about our experience at the teppanyaki...wow just wow Sanjay performed an out of this world show, created the most delicious food. We visited twice. He's a very valuable part of asiatique restaurant.
Silvia
We absolutely loved Emerald Maldives!
First thing to mention was the staff. Everyone was so kind and helpful, always going out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. Our host Sid was very kind, always smiley and incredibly efficient. If something is not right they will do everything they can to sort things out.
The rooms were beautiful —super clean, spacious, really comfortable. We stayed few days on a water villa which was fantastic and then to a beach pool villa which was spectacular. It honestly felt like a little paradise.
The food was excellent across the board, but the standout for us was the Asiatique restaurant—everything we tried was full of flavor and beautifully presented. Such a great variety and really high quality. We looked forward to every meal!
I read some reviews where people complained about the plastic boards in front of the food at Aqua buffet, but to be honest I am so grateful the resort continue to keep this protection in place for hygienic reasons. This is so much cleaner and makes the buffet a better experience. We also found Aqua buffet very good with such a variety of options all made with great care.
One of the highlights was the in-house reef—it was beautiful and so easy to access. We spent hours snorkeling and exploring the vibrant underwater life. Just incredible!
Having an accessible reef was a key condition for us since we didn’t want to rely on expeditions for exploring the reef. Emerald didn’t let us down.
We also went to a couple of expeditions (turtle hunting and the complimentary fishing one) and they were both great experiences!
Staff keeps the beaches and the landscaping with great care, everything was impeccable.
We also loved cycling around the island with the bicycles. Kids had so much fun!
Would definitely come back and recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and unforgettable getaway.
Enrico De Pompeis
It was a dream come true. From the moment we landed to the moment we left, we completely switched off our minds—Emerald’s staff takes care of everything down to the smallest detail, so all you have to do is enjoy the experience. The villas are stunning and impeccably clean, the sea is simply unbeatable, the restaurants are excellent, and the extra experiences are truly amazing. The staff’s kindness and attentiveness are on another level—you feel pampered from the very first moment.
The resort’s attention to detail is remarkable, from the fully equipped rooms to the thoughtful touches like complimentary beach bags and swimwear for guests. We were especially lucky to have Wisham as our villa host—he took care of us throughout our stay, always going above and beyond. He was kind, professional, and attentive to our needs, always present without ever being intrusive. His presence made our stay even more magical, especially with the romantic surprises he arranged for us.
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Absolutely recommended for a dream vacation, whether you’re a couple (like us, who spent our honeymoon here) or a family. We can't wait to go back!

Wendy Tan Siew Inn
This is absolutely the best resort in Maldives. The people make all the difference - friendly, genuine and attentive. The experience and memories created are priceless, from island treasure hunt, immaculate coffee and movie nights. The food at all the restaurants are exquisite and delicious. It is amazing how many chefs this resort has. The beauty of the nature is stunning - from sunsets to blue lagoons and even the dancing sea grass. Highly recommended for families and couples.
Gangangana Dharmasena
We recently visited the Maldives and had the pleasure of staying at LUX South Ari Atoll* — and what an unforgettable experience it was! From the stunning views to the warm hospitality, everything exceeded our expectations.
A special shout-out to Chef Kalum, who truly made our stay exceptional. He went above and beyond to look after us throughout our visit, ensuring every meal was not only delicious but also tailored to our preferences. His attention to detail and kindness left a lasting impression on us. Also Housekeeper Afrat provide us an exceptional service with the room service.Overall the hotel ans the staff are providing an exceptional service.
Thank you to the entire team at LUX* South Ari Atoll for making our trip so special — we can’t wait to come back!
Tim Walker
We visited Lux* in July as a couple on an all inclusive basis in one of the “Romantic Beach Villas” which was well located on this (relatively for the Maldives) large island
The staff are very friendly and can’t do enough for you. The food at Lux is exceptional and greater variety than at other resorts. Not all of the restaurants are included in the all inclusive package but regardless I recommend visiting them all. Even in the two restaurants where you need to pay for food you receive a discount and you do not need to pay for drinks
It is a family resort predominantly, but we found due to the islands size, there were plenty of quiet spots to enjoy. I do recommend hiring bikes (which you need to pay for) to avoid waiting too long for the shuttle buggies
The owners of Lux really get what guests are looking for from a “vibe” perspective. Each space is distinctively themed and with great variety
Our favourite moments were delivered by the brilliant DJ at Beach Rouge who set the soundtrack to some amazing sunsets and memories that will last
Final words, unusually, go to the restrooms at the bars and restaurants. I won’t spoil, but they are well worth a visit! If you know, you know
If you are going, I hope you have as fantastic a time as we did
Nilvanta Kerai
Cannot fault this resort, rooms, staff or food.
From the minute you land you are led to the waiting lounge with healthy but filling food options and comfortable seating areas. Difficult to name outstanding staff as they all were but Daminder especially, always had a welcoming smile and time to speak to us. Salwa also always had time to assist and was on hand any time of the day if we had any queries or requested services.
On arrival, our beach front villa was spotless with a beach bag, slippers and robes to hand. Room led to a spotless calm quiet beach - it felt like our personal beach with loungers and no-one around.
We tried each restaurant with different lunch time and dinner options. Being a vegetarian I was spoilt with healthy and wonderful choices and flavours. The dosa station was delicious, as were the fresh smoothies.
The Unami was probably my least favourite but cannot fault the others. Allegria was outstanding food and location with a lovely band which was great entertainment. Premium drinks and lovely cocktails were provided with the all inclusive package.
Staff were super friendly with seniors coming over to each table to chat and see how we were. Service was at times slow especially at the Lagoon Bar but other restaurants we just put this down to a relaxed atmosphere and it didn't take away from our experience.
Lastly, the entertainment impressed - the DJ doing requests at the White Party encouraged a fun and social atmosphere. Water sports assisted with appreciating the crystal clear waters with abundance of fish.
Having stayed at several top rated hotels this was above and beyond and perfect for our celebration which was pleasantly acknowledged. Paradise indeed - we will be back!
Zak Joerin
Outstanding service here at a beautiful location. You won't get bored staying here for a week! Lot of food choices included with the packages at no extra cost, and 1.8 km of island to explore

Mattia Buzzi
Our Unforgettable Stay at Iru Veli
It’s been an absolute pleasure spending a full week at Iru Veli with my wife and our child, Nico. The island is stunning, and the reef is truly amazing—you can see all kinds of marine life, from colorful fish to sharks and sea turtles.
We stayed in the fantastic Beach Villa with Pool #210, which offered a breathtaking sunset view. Everything was perfect, starting from the airport and seaplane transfers to the villa itself, the services, the restaurants, the extra activities, and the diving center.
The staff took incredible care of us with impeccable service and professionalism. What stood out the most was how everyone knew our son by name—after just one day, every single staff member greeted Nico personally. That level of attention made us feel genuinely welcomed and cared for.
I cannot mention everyone by name (and I honestly can’t remember them all 😊), but I truly mean EVERYONE—each person we encountered made our stay even more special.
A heartfelt thank you to the entire team—everyone at the restaurants, from management to the servers to the chefs at the live cooking stations. Thanks to the front desk team for their support, and to Miranda and her diving center team for making every excursion unforgettable.
I cannot mention everyone (and remember all names :-) ) but I really mean EVERYONE
Finally a special thank you to our ambassador, Shakeeb, who made every request possible and went above and beyond. Thanks also to Adam from the sales team for guiding me through the booking process and assisting with all my additional requests.
You truly have to visit Iru Veli to believe it. Highly recommended!
Jay Bastia
Stay at Sun Siyam Iru Veli was pure perfection from start to finish. The King residence was stunning—luxurious, spacious, and offering breathtaking views of the turquoise lagoon. The beach was super white pristine and best to sunk in. Every detail was thoughtfully designed for comfort and relaxation.
The service throughout the resort was exceptional—warm, professional, and genuinely caring. A special mention goes to our incredible **butler Adam**, who made our stay truly seamless. From handling every request with ease to adding thoughtful touches throughout our trip, Adam went above and beyond in every way. We felt so well taken care of.
The spa experience was world-class—tranquil, rejuvenating, and set in the most serene overwater setting. Every treatment left us feeling refreshed and relaxed.
Dining at Sun Siyam Iru Veli was a highlight in itself. The variety of restaurants offered everything from gourmet fine dining to laid-back beachside bites. The food was consistently delicious, fresh, and beautifully presented, specially the Roma and drinks by pool Chemistry Bar.
This place is a true Maldivian gem, and thanks to the amazing team.
Colette Brennan
Our honeymoon at Sun Siyam Iru Veli was absolutely first class. From the moment we arrived, the service was impeccable. We were blown away by the standard of accommodation - both options ( Ocean beach villa and Sea view ) provided the utmost in comfort and space. Food choices in the abundant choice of restaurants were of a really high standard - the choice was amazing.
Every member of staff was incredibly friendly and helpful - there really wasn’t one bad note in the whole trip.
Our ambassador( Adam) ensured the smooth running of the trip - his good humoured professional service was much appreciated. This was an incredibly special time for us and there were so many thoughtful details that made this time a really memorable experience .
Hyunjoo Jung
We visited Maldives for our honeymoon! We chose this resort and had no regrets. All the staff were friendly and kind. Among them, the butler in charge of our room took good care of us and we were able to rest with peace of mind.
Tracy Shear
We recently had the pleasure of staying at the beautiful Ocean Villa in Sun Siyam Iru Veli, and it was truly a dream come true. From the moment we arrived, everything was handled with such care and attention to detail.
Mithu, our room attendant, was absolutely fantastic. He went above and beyond, ensuring our mini bar was stocked beyond expectations, and the small touches, like animal-shaped towels on our bed, ranging from elephants to swans, and our little messages really made us feel special. It was those little details that truly set this resort apart.
Chaw from Chemistry was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and her level of service was unmatched. Her genuine warmth and personal touch made us feel like really special. We were so touched that she remembered us each time we visited as ‘Next one down!’—a fun little phrase we adopted, which made us feel like we shared a special bond with her. Her attention to detail and thoughtful service elevated our experience in ways we’ll never forget...
Adam, our ambassador, was great. From the moment we stepped foot on the island to our departure, he made sure everything was sorted and seamlessly arranged. He made our stay stress-free and memorable.
The chefs at Aqua Orange were also a highlight. They were not only exceptionally talented, but their warmth and friendliness enhanced the dining experience. Every meal was a delightful experience, and the service was top-notch.
Overall, Sun Siyam Iru Veli is a place where luxury meets heartfelt hospitality, and we’re already looking forward to returning. Highly recommend this resort for anyone looking for a truly unforgettable experience!

Sandeep Sherman
One of the most beautiful places you still stay at. The staff are incredibly thoughtful and took care of us from the time we landed in male to the moment we left. The food was excellent, especially the Indian food. The entire property was so clean and well cared for, it's hard to find anything wrong with it. We spent our vacation snorkeling, swimming, relaxing on the beach and drinking/eating. The snorkeling right off the property was gorgeous, we saw plenty of marine life and the reef around the property has been well taken care of by the hotel.
Alia Ali
It was my first time in the Maldives, and I was truly astonished by the hospitality. The place was recommended to me by brother and it did not disappoint! We stayed in the Honeymoon Resort rooms, which were absolutely beautiful. The service was amazing, and the staff—especially Safwan, Nihad, and Ali—were outstanding. I had the most delicious fish I've ever eaten at the Grill Restaurant, and the staff there were equally amazing. The spa experience was lovely. Thank you for the wonderful memories. I will definitely be coming back
Todor Todorov
The resort is very nice, we had a water villa facing east, which was great, a big and fully equipped room and the house reef was just in front of our deck!
The house reef is excellent, saw turtles, sharks, eagle rays and lots of colourful fish and corals. Top!
Service was great everywhere in the resort especially mentioning the restaurant and reception staff.
Food was really gourmet in the 2 a la cart restaurants, definitely a must visit.
The main restaurant buffet was a bit of a let-down, repetitive, very Indian/eastern oriented, only the few live stations saved it. Definitely not 5 star. Service was great though.
Dive center was another let down, not flexible, nothing special in the excursions we went to, have been to much more adventurous and special excursions in other Maldives resorts.
Spa was excellent, really professional, a must try and some procedures included in AI.
The reason for the overall 3 stars is the departure trip to the airport- reception staff was great, but once boarding the boat the crew told us to sit in the back since front seats are “reserved for staff”, we did, next to the engine. It is a not a totally closed boat, so no air-con and no water provided, waves kept hitting and our seat and we got all wet, hot and by the time we got to the airport we needed a change of clothes! See pic.
So, overall, 5 stars I have to give for staff, reef, rooms and must mention that Sangeli is definitely a great AI option for first time Maldives visitors with kids. Couples, repeats and keen snorkellers/divers could find a better option for the price.

We had an unforgettable experience at OBLU SELECT Sangeli in the Maldives! The island is absolutely stunning, with a beautiful beach and crystal-clear waters. We stayed in a water villa that faced the sea, and it was a dream come true. The villa’s location allowed us to see a variety of fish swimming right below us – perfect for snorkeling! The underwater world here is vibrant and full of life.
The service was exceptional. Every staff member went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. They truly make you feel like you’re at home. The food was another highlight – there’s a great variety of delicious dishes, all prepared with care and full of flavor.
Many thanks again to all the staff on the island for their thoughtful and warm service.
Tanay Salike
I had one of the best stays here. I was travelling with my 3 month old baby for the first time and the hotel was nothing short of amazing. The staff, the food, the service was all great. Special thanks to Mr. Frank for sorting out a comfortable transfer to the airport, Chef Vijay for making the best food and also packing some food for us for our return back based on our preference and lastly Mr. Raidh and the dive team to help me scuba dive without any prior experience and for being especially patient with me since I’m a non swimmer.

From the moment I arrived by seaplane, I knew I was in for something unforgettable. Atmosphere Kanifushi delivers on every promise of paradise. The turquoise lagoon, endless white sand beaches, and lush greenery set the scene—but it’s the service and experience that truly elevates the stay.
The villa was nothing short of spectacular—spacious, private, and just steps from the ocean. Waking up to the sound of the waves and enjoying a coffee on the deck felt like a dream. The all-inclusive plan is incredibly generous: gourmet meals, premium drinks, daily activities, and even spa treatments are all seamlessly included.
I’ll be dreaming of this place until I return.

Delightful island getaway — would love to go again!
Stayed here for a mother-daughter trip I booked as a gift when my mother celebrated a milestone birthday. We did a LOT of research prior to booking to find a place that would be just right. Atmosphere Kanifushi lived up to our every expectation! If this review is long, it’s only because I’m writing it as a way to relive the fantastic trip I had to this resort (to which I already wish I could go back immediately).
As soon as we stepped into our beach villa with private infinity pool we were completely blown away. The view was truly exquisite and so much better than any pictures could possibly do justice; I could never get tired of something so beautiful! Stepping out onto the wooden deck and taking a long morning swim in the pool before breakfast was divine. Really enjoyed the bathroom with a half open air ceiling as well — it was such a delightful feeling to step out there and hear the (for us northerners rather exotic) birds and watch the hibiscus flowers sway in the breeze.
The whole island experience was fantastic— there was so much attention to detail to make the experience feel perfect (they even raked the sand pathway to our entrance every day!). The shuttle service made it easy to get around the island without issues.
As for the food, the restaurant selection is excellent as well! We really enjoyed our a la carte dinner at Pier 6 (some delicious seafood there - would recommend to go before sunset to do the view justice though!), as well as lunch at the Sunset, Sri Lankan specialties at Ceylon Bliss and fish and chips at Liquid. We had most of our meals at the main buffet restaurant Spice which was excellent! They had several different theme nights during our stay as well which ensured that there were always more options than you could possibly try!
The staff were so attentive and helpful everywhere we went. Without fault, as a guest you are met with a smile and a greeting from literally everyone, from the shuttle drivers and restaurant service to island engineers and cleaning staff! They really make you feel welcome and it makes for such a pleasant mood on the island.
To summarise, my mother and I will always treasure the memories from our lovely getaway to Atmosphere Kanifushi. Would love to go back one day and can absolutely recommend booking here!
Andrea R
Remarkable resort with attentive staff, wonderful food options, beautiful villas, lovely natural landscaping, and of course tremendous access to the Indian ocean in all its shades of blue.
The Maldivian team members I spoke with were happy to speak about their country with pride that I learned from and I admire (noting that the resort lifestyle is not like their local customs and traditions).
Liquid Metalman
Had a fantastic holiday here. From the moment we landed in the seaplane, we were warmly welcomed. The sea villa was a great choice. The food was fantastic in all restaurants and there was an excellent selection of drinks. I would return in a heartbeat. A big thank you to all of the staff that made our stay a special one.
Fahad Wali
The resort was amazing, we had a great experience throughout all the facilities. Lots of restaurants with different options but mainly Indian and Sri-Lankans foods. So, if you’re an Indian food lover, this resort is your paradise. Loved the live cooking options and the night activities as they performed different activities every night, there were lots of day activities such as fishing, snorkeling, diving…etc
We had the pool beach villa, which had a large private pool and direct access to the beach. Loved everything there, my only comment was that if they focus on all guests from different cultures rather than focusing only on Indian guests. However, I would visit this resort again and take my kids too, the daily activities for kids were amazing. The room size was great, the bed wasn’t that comfortable but acceptable. If you’re considering this resort then make sure to go for the all inclusive option, as you don’t want to miss any of the restaurants, starting from the daily buffets in the Spice restaurant to the fine dining in the Pier 6, the only Veg restaurant was a great experience too, loved the night vibe in the Liquid bar, and the food in the Lantern bar and the Sunset bar on the pool.
Our in-charge of our stay Mr. Rafu was a great person and took care of us all the time 🙏🏼
The Internet wifi wasn’t that strong, but who needs connection in that place 😊
We really enjoyed our one week stay there and hopefully will go back there soon 👍🏻

Spent a wonderful week in this fantastic resort. As Dhigurah is far from Male getting there took 55 minutes by flight and then a 10 minutes boat ride- but it was all worth it.
Staff were extremely friendly and helpful and we felt like kings all week. Our villa was very clean, spacious and had a nice view. Restaurants were really good and will be reviewed separately. We really liked the bikes which made it easy to transport yourself to all facilities on both islands. If you did not care to bike, the hotel would pick you up.
Unfortunately we were not lucky with the weather, with only a few sunny days. But that was of course not the fault of the hotel.
Can really recommend the place!
Barrie Javens
Outstanding....from the moment we arrived.
Everything you can imagine and more. The food, accommodation and service was all first rate.
A special note of thanks to all the staff, they couldn't do enough to make our stay unforgettable. So helpful and friendly all of the time.
And the views are picture postcode perfect!

The Residence Dhigurah, Maldives – A Dreamy Island Escape
Our stay at The Residence Dhigurah, Maldives was an absolute dream. From luxurious accommodations to breathtaking natural beauty, every moment felt like paradise. We had the pleasure of experiencing both the Sunrise Beach Villa and the Sunset Water Villa, each offering its own unique charm.
Accommodation: The Best of Both Worlds
We started our stay in the Sunrise Beach Villa, where we woke up to the soft hues of dawn over the pristine beach. The villa was spacious, elegantly designed, and had direct beach access, making it the perfect spot for a morning stroll along the shore. The outdoor deck and private lounging area provided a peaceful retreat to soak in the serenity of the island.
Later, we moved to the Sunset Water Villa, which took our experience to a whole new level. Sitting over the shimmering turquoise waters, the villa featured a private temperature-controlled infinity pool—a luxury that allowed us to take a refreshing dip at any time of the day. Watching the sun set over the ocean from our villa was one of the most breathtaking experiences of our lives—a mesmerizing play of colors that left us in awe.
Exceptional Hospitality
The hospitality at The Residence Dhigurah was beyond imagination. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warmth and care. The staff was incredibly attentive, ensuring every aspect of our stay was perfect. Their attention to detail and personalized service made us feel truly pampered.
Unique Island Experience
One of the most special aspects of The Residence Dhigurah is that it is connected to another island by a bridge, allowing guests to cycle between two stunning islands. This was an experience like no other—cycling along the wooden bridge, surrounded by crystal-clear waters, feeling the gentle sea breeze—it was pure bliss. The dual-island setup gave us plenty of space to explore and discover different scenic spots.
Dining: A Culinary Delight
The food was absolutely amazing, with a perfect mix of international flavors and Maldivian specialties. Whether it was a beachfront dinner under the stars, a fresh seafood feast, or a tropical breakfast overlooking the ocean, every meal was a delight. The quality, variety, and presentation of the food were exceptional.
Activities & Natural Beauty
For adventure lovers, snorkeling around the resort was spectacular. The house reef was rich with marine life, offering incredible views of colorful corals, exotic fish, and even manta rays. The crystal-clear waters made the experience even more magical.
Final Thoughts
Our time at The Residence Dhigurah was truly unforgettable. The blend of luxury, adventure, and natural beauty made it one of the best vacations we’ve ever had. From cycling between islands to relaxing in our private infinity pool, every moment was worry-free and filled with joy.
If you’re looking for the ultimate Maldivian getaway, this resort is a must-visit. We can’t wait to return!
Alyssa Hidalgo
Our stay at this hotel in the Maldives was nothing short of perfect—the ultimate honeymoon escape! From the moment we arrived, we were surrounded by crystal-clear waters, luxurious comfort, and the kind of peaceful beauty you dream about. Every detail felt thoughtfully curated to create a truly romantic and relaxing experience.
One of the most meaningful parts of our stay was the incredible care shown by the staff, especially Head Chef Tarang. My husband has a serious food allergy, and Chef Tarang went out of his way to ensure every meal was not only safe but also absolutely delicious. He personally prepared fresh, allergy-conscious meals for us each day, giving us peace of mind and allowing us to fully enjoy every bite without worry. His kindness and professionalism meant the world to us.
We couldn’t have asked for a more magical or memorable start to our marriage. Highly recommend this resort to any couple looking for a dreamy, safe, and unforgettable honeymoon destination.
Pablo Niscovolos
Absolutely amazing.
Service is wonderful. Easy to get there. It’s like a paradise. Go and you won’t regret it.
You can dive with simple goggles and see fish. Turtles. Incredible.

Heaven on Earth: A Unforgettable Stay at Siyam World Maldives
I'm still reeling from the most incredible vacation of my life at the Siyam World in the breathtakingly beautiful Maldives! From the moment we arrived, we knew we were in for a treat.
The resort's stunning villas, pristine beaches, and crystal-clear waters exceeded our expectations. Our beach villa and the LAGOON WATER VILLA was a masterpiece of luxury, with a private pool, bath tub, and direct access to the ocean.
Specially our water villa room no. 573 had an extremely beautiful view for which i am very thankful to our ambassador LIMBU. This villa is also near the Indian restaurant named Curry Leaf and Tempo.
The service was impeccable, with friendly and attentive staff catering to our every need. The resort's facilities, including the spa, gym, and water sports center, were top-notch.
But what truly made our stay unforgettable was the exceptional dining experience. The resort's restaurants served up mouth-watering cuisine, like fresh Vegetarian Indian Foods and Juices like Dosa, upma, poha, Garlic naan, kadhai Paneer, Awesome daal makhni, khichdi and curd for baby and many more. Literally you don't have to bring any food with you.
As we reluctantly departed, we knew we'd left a piece of our hearts in the Maldives. Siyam World is truly a slice of heaven on earth, and we can't wait to return.
Michelle Liang
We had an amazing 5 days at Siyam World. Loved the beaches and clear blue waters. Swimming pools were also fantastic to chill in. Food and drinks that were included were great.
Our ambassador Mio was very helpful to arrange activity and dinner bookings.
Ramanpreet Singh
We had an absolutely unforgettable stay at Siyam World, Maldives—a truly luxurious and peaceful resort that exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we arrived, everything was perfectly organized, and a big part of that was thanks to our amazing resort ambassador, Mu’az (Mo).
Mo was incredibly professional, friendly, and always available to help. He made all our restaurant and activity reservations in advance, offered helpful guidance throughout our stay, and responded promptly to all our questions. His attention to detail and warm hospitality made us feel truly taken care of.
The resort itself is stunning, with breathtaking views and a wide variety of dining options. We were especially impressed by how many Vegan and Vegetarian choices were available—and they even accommodated Jain food without any issues. Every meal was delicious and thoughtfully prepared.
If you’re looking for a luxurious, relaxing getaway with top-notch service and a strong understanding of dietary preferences, Siyam World is the place to be. And if you’re lucky enough to have Mo as your ambassador, you’re in great hands!
Frank Schloeder
It was our third time in Maldives and Siyam World was a full success. After another more disappointing experience in another resort last time, we spent good time to search the right resort and our choice was the right one this time. We can recommend without a doubt.
The resort is in perfect shape and very well maintained. The facilities are amazing and there is something for everyone. Excellent service and very nice and forward thinking team. The food was very good. With the package that we booked, we could eat everyday in another restaurant and do a full restaurant hopping. And unlike the practice in other resorts, you are not discouraged from going to the restaurants instead of buffet and you have access to almost the entire menu card (except a few limited exceptions). Also the wine menu is accessible without surcharge, that also includes Champagne.
It's a large resort with many rooms, but it doesn't feel like crowded or busy. And it never gets boring as there is lots to do.
Siyam World has understood how a Maldive holiday should be. You spend a lot of money - far more than for most other destinations. And hence you expect the best. We spent a perfect week and we will be happy to come back for sure.
Sanj Marwaha
isited Siyam World for our honeymoon and the resort is nothing but a stunning destination offering luxury, comfort, and exceptional service. Our stay was made even more memorable thanks to our ambassador, Mo (Mu’az), who went above and beyond to ensure every need was met. His attentiveness, warmth, and dedication made us feel incredibly well taken care of—nothing was ever too much trouble.
The resort itself is paradise! With plenty of dining options, and lots of activities to enjoy. Overall, Siyam World exceeded our expectations, and Mo’s exceptional service truly made our experience unforgettable. We highly recommend this resort for anyone seeking a luxurious escape.

Unforgettable Stay at Hard Rock Maldives (December 2024) 🌴☀️🌊👙🐚
We stayed at Hard Rock Maldives in December 2024 and had an absolutely unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, everything was seamless — the 15-minute speedboat ride from the airport was super convenient and stress-free.
The staff were incredibly welcoming and went out of their way to make us feel at home. The resort has a vibrant, fun vibe that’s still luxurious and relaxing. We stayed in a Beach Studio and waking up to the stunning turquoise waters every morning was like a dream.
One of the best parts of the trip was the variety of dining options — not just at Hard Rock but also across the connected Crossroads Marina. We loved the freedom to try different cuisines every day, from Japanese to Indian to seafood grills. The food and cocktails at the main pool bar were also top-notch.
The music-themed touches throughout the resort were really fun and unique — you could tell there was attention to detail in everything. And even though it’s a Hard Rock brand, it was super family-friendly. The pool and kids’ activities kept everyone happy.
We also appreciated the sustainable initiatives and how clean and well-kept the entire property was.
Hard Rock Maldives exceeded our expectations in every way. We’re already dreaming of coming back. Highly recommend to couples, families, or anyone looking for a Maldives experience that mixes luxury with a little more energy and personality. 💖

Our stay at Hard Rock Hotel Maldives was truly exceptional! From the breathtaking views to the world-class service, every moment was unforgettable. The staff was incredibly professional, friendly, and always ready to assist with a smile. Outstanding hospitality,Looking forward to visiting again soon!

We had an absolutely brilliant experience in this hotel. The staff are very friendly and helpful. There is a great selection of restaurants. The food is amazing and their menu for the main restaurant changes slightly every day. There were some events for almost every night, including seafood night market, live music and shows. The water is absolutely beautiful. It is crystal clear and has a beautiful Tiffany colour. I would highly recommend anyway who is considering this hotel to give it a try.

We had an exceptional stay at the Hard Rock Maldives, where we were warmly welcomed by Sato. He was extremely knowledgeable about the resort and attentive to every detail. Our birthday celebration was truly unforgettable.
Upon arrival, we were delighted to find a beautifully decorated birthday setup in our room, complete with a bottle of wine and our favorite cake. This was a lovely surprise, as we had only mentioned it in passing during our reservation. The reservation team did an outstanding job.
The resort offers a wide range of dining options, although we didn't have time to explore them all due to our short stay. As part of the Hard Rock, we were also welcome to use the Sai Lagoon facilities.
At check-out, the front desk team was meticulous in reviewing our bill to ensure that we received the eligible discount. Great job!
The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Even when they were busy maintaining the public areas, one staff member (unfortunately, we forgot his name) went out of his way to offer to take our photos. His kindness was genuinely appreciated.
Overall, our stay at the Hard Rock Maldives was fantastic, and we can't wait to return!

Truly Wonderful Experience
Our stay at Hard Rock Hotel was absolutely unforgettable, thanks to the incredible entertainment, exceptional dining experiences, and outstanding hospitality.
The entertainment was a major highlight, with Deviate Band delivering high-energy performances that made each evening memorable. A special shoutout to solo singer Hera, whose soulful voice during the Sundown Cocktail set the perfect mood for unwinding and enjoying the breathtaking sunset.
Dining at Sessions was a treat, with an impressive variety of dishes. The breakfast buffet, in particular, had something for everyone. The themed dinners were also a standout, with Grill Night serving perfectly cooked cuts, and Japanese Night offering flavors that transported us straight to Japan.
A huge thank you to Chef Ruben, who went above and beyond to check on us and make sure we had everything we needed.
Hard Rock Hotel knows how to create an unforgettable experience, and we can’t wait to return!

A Perfect Stay at Lily Beach Resort!
I had an amazing time at Lily Beach Resort! From the warm welcome at check-in to the stunning overwater villa, everything was top-notch. The resort is a true paradise with crystal-clear waters, beautiful beaches, and lush greenery. The food was delicious with plenty of variety, and the all-inclusive package made everything stress-free.
There’s so much to do—from snorkeling to relaxing at the spa, and the staff were always friendly and attentive. The entire experience was luxurious, peaceful, and unforgettable. Highly recommend!

A Perfect Slice of Paradise – Maldives Holiday Review 🌴🌊
From the moment we arrived Lilly beach, it felt like stepping into a dream. Crystal-clear turquoise waters, powdery white sand, and the warm tropical breeze welcomed us to what turned out to be one of the most unforgettable holidays we've ever had.
We stayed at a stunning overwater villa that offered panoramic views of the ocean and direct access to the lagoon — waking up to the sound of gentle waves and watching the sunset from our deck was pure magic. The staff were incredibly warm, professional, and attentive, going above and beyond to make our stay special.
Each day was filled with activities that showcased the natural beauty of the islands. We snorkeled among vibrant coral reefs, swam with reef sharks and manta rays, and even enjoyed a romantic sunset cruise with dolphins dancing in the distance. The underwater world here is simply breathtaking.
The food was another highlight — fresh seafood, tropical fruits, and a mix of international and local dishes kept our taste buds delighted. Every meal was served with a view, making even breakfast feel like a luxury experience.
Whether you're looking for adventure or pure relaxation, the Maldives delivers it all in the most serene and luxurious way. It’s a perfect destination for couples, families, or solo travelers looking to disconnect from the busy world and reconnect with nature.
We left with hearts full of gratitude and memories that will last a lifetime. Already counting down the days until we return!
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5)
Would I recommend it? Absolutely.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at lily beach! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, going above and beyond to make our vacation smooth and enjoyable. Our room was spacious, clean, and beautifully furnished, and the grounds were impeccably maintained, creating a serene and relaxing atmosphere. The beach was pristine. The location of rooms were perfect – easy walking distance to restaurants, dive center , spa, bars and water sports yet secluded enough to feel like a peaceful retreat. Also the food here was amazingly wonderful. There wasn’t even a single thing we didn’t like. We highly recommend lily beach to anyone looking for a relaxing and memorable vacation..

I had such an awesome time staying here. The hotel was super nice, and the people working there were friendly and helpful. The room was perfect and really cozy.
Every day was fun and exciting. I made some great memories and just had the best time overall. Everything felt chill and stress-free, which made the trip even better.
Definitely want to come back someday!

This was an amazing trip! The islanders were incredibly friendly. While snorkeling, I met a local named Suja (based on pronunciation), who showed me stunning corals and fish. He even collected shells for my wife, who was resting in our room. Now, he’s my friend! Later, he helped me photograph sharks. I signed up for a dolphin-chasing boat tour, and he was in charge. My wife and I were so lucky to see dolphins up close. This was a fantastic honeymoon. We’re leaving today, feeling reluctant but so happy!

Lusine Simonyan
NH Collection Havodda Maldives was the perfect choice for our honeymoon. Our water villa was always clean and fresh every time we returned, making our stay even more enjoyable. The food at the hotel was incredible—while we had the all-inclusive option, we also tried the à la carte dining on the beach, which was a fantastic experience with live music. The staff was exceptionally attentive, and Mr. Munjid went above and beyond to ensure we had a wonderful stay. The stunning blue lagoon made it feel like a dream come true—we couldn’t get enough of this amazing experience!✨❤️🌴✨Thank you!!
With best wishes,
Lusine&Justin

Our stay at NH Collection Maldives Havodda was nothing short of extraordinary! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warm hospitality, breathtaking scenery, and the perfect blend of luxury and nature.
A Tropical Paradise
The island itself is stunning—pristine white sand beaches, lush tropical greenery, and crystal-clear waters that instantly make you feel like you’ve stepped into a dream. The overwater and beachfront villas are beautifully designed, offering comfort, privacy, and incredible views of the Indian Ocean.
Unforgettable Snorkeling & Diving
One of the highlights of our stay was the vibrant coral reef that surrounds the island. Snorkeling right from the shore, we encountered an abundance of marine life—colorful fish, graceful rays, and even sea turtles. For diving enthusiasts, the nearby dive sites are world-class, with stunning coral formations and incredible biodiversity.
Delicious Dining & Exceptional Service
The food at NH Collection Maldives Havodda was outstanding! With a variety of restaurants offering fresh seafood, international cuisine, and Maldivian specialties, every meal was a delight. The staff went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed, always greeting us with a smile and ensuring every experience was special.
Relaxation & Activities
Whether lounging by the infinity pool, indulging in a soothing spa treatment, or trying out water sports like kayaking and paddleboarding, there was always something to enjoy. The resort perfectly balances adventure and relaxation, making it an ideal destination for couples, families, and honeymooners alike.
Final Thoughts
If you’re looking for a slice of paradise in the Maldives, NH Collection Maldives Havodda is the perfect choice. With its incredible coral reef, luxurious accommodations, and impeccable service, our stay was truly unforgettable. We can’t wait to return!
Antonia & Rafael
We had the absolute pleasure of spending our vacation at the NH Collection Havodda in the breathtaking Maldives, and it was truly unforgettable. The island itself is a gem, boasting a stunning house reef teeming with marine life, including reef sharks, stingrays, and turtles, making snorkeling an exhilarating experience.
The villas were modern, comfortable, and impeccably clean. We had the opportunity to stay in both an overwater villa and a beach villa. The overwater villa was a dream come true, offering breathtaking views of the sea and direct access to it. However, a sun cover or awning would be a great addition to make the terrace more usable during the day. The beach villa, on the other hand, provided private beach access with an umbrella, though we encountered more mosquitoes there.
The food was exceptional, with a great variety and freshness. The half-board option was perfect for us, with highlights like freshly pressed juices and pancakes at breakfast, and themed dinner buffets that never failed to impress. Water, tea and coffee is free in the restaurants and your villa - other drinks are rather pricey (which however, is rather a standard for Maldives resorts; think USD 8 for a coke).
The staff were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was nothing short of perfect.
The resort offers a range of activities, including complimentary snorkeling equipment, kayaks, and additional free activities like guided snorkeling trips and marine biology sessions. We also enjoyed a fun fishing trip and rejuvenating spa treatments.
The transfer from Malé was seamless. All is organized for you, including lounge access, a 1.5h flight to Kaadedhdhoo and a 10min speedboat ride to Havodda (all included).
Tips for Future Visitors:
Accommodation: Overwater villas are ideal for couples, while beach villas are better suited for families.
Essentials: Don't forget to pack sunscreen with high SPF and use it liberally!
Overall, NH Collection Havodda exceeded our expectations in every way, making it a must-visit destination for anyone seeking a luxurious and memorable getaway in paradise.
Karlo Lesina
Slice of paradise & our first time on Maldives. House reef was incredibly healthy & plenty of sea life including resident sea turtle. Buffet was great & staff were very kind. Over water villas were great as well, tough to compare since its our first
jus tice
Pay attention please. The island is far away from Male and the resort
- do not care about your INHUMAN waiting time for transfer( i waited 6 hours in Male and i almost was about to wait 11 hours after 15 hours to Male). They also do not let you know about the schedule of the transfer until a day before. (maybe you change something)
- Do not choose sunrise villas - your stay will be ruined because a DIESEL GENERATOR - diesel smell and 24 hours engine sound.
- do pay attention at the restaurant - it has a lot of CHLORINE taste.
- they do not offer the same benefits if you book your stay with a third party(they offer soft drinks for full board only if you book on their site) shame.
- do not book a snorkel garden trip - it is a 5 minutes boat ride to snorkel a similar coral like resort island has and it cost 105$ per person..
- kitchen teflon PANS look like 7 years old with millions of omelettes - shame for a 5 stars resort.
It was supposed to relax, but it was kind ruined.

If you dream of going to the Maldives at least once in your life - Iru Fushi Sun Siam is your place! Green, exotic, romantic, beautiful to perfection! The villas are clean, luxurious, made with an idea and very romantic! The beaches have fine sand and crystal waters, there are conditions for wonderful snorkeling, you can see sharks, turtles, stingrays and without going too far from the island. The food is extremely diverse and rich! The staff is polite, smiling and very helpful! They made our celebration unforgettable - romantic, beautiful and very respectful of us! Sincere thanks to Mariam, who was our butler, and to our attendant R. Leon, who took care of us and gave us surprises! There are five restaurants on the island, but our heart remained in the Indian restaurant, Test of India - magnificent cuisine, the chef personally greeted us and honored us with his presence. Special thanks to the BBQ restaurant by the adult pool, which is right on the beach, where they made a wonderful surprise for us. The island also has a family pool which is extremely beautiful and exotic, tennis courts, places for typical Maldivian photos with palm trees, swings and beautiful flowers. You can enjoy all kinds of excursions, massages, enjoy an outdoor party with live music! I highly recommend this place because time stops there and every moment you thank God that you ended up there! I dream of going back one day! Thanks Iru Fushi Sun Siam 💞
Fahad A
Visited in December 24, one of the most memorable experiences. Beautiful sea, crystal clear water, and world leading hospitality. Definitely recommend taking a seaplane to the island. The all-inclusive package is the best experience as otherwise it could get a little expensive. The Over water villa spacious and very clean. The food was brilliant, with plenty of choice and also tasty. Our butler always available by WhatsApp, which was a useful service. Could do with more evening activities. Nonetheless, this resort was outstanding with beautiful beaches. Definitely try out the spa too!
Annamaria Bianchi
It was a fantastic holiday!
The island is wonderful and really well cared for. We have been to the Maldives years ago and I must say that this holiday did not disappoint our expectations: heavenly sea, lots of fish, lush vegetation, large and white beaches. The staff was very kind (a personal thank you to Azzam and Rakesh, pur room attendant). The room was very large with a huge Maldivian bathroom with two showers and a hydromassage tub. The only thing to improve is the air conditioning system: it needs to be renovated in favor of new, less noisy air conditioners. Thank you
Andy P
We had a fantastic stay at Iru Fushi Island Resort. Our Deluxe Beach Villa with a pool was well worth it—swimming under the stars was unforgettable. The resort offers a great mix of activities, beautiful sunsets, and a relaxed atmosphere where you can walk barefoot everywhere. Staff were incredibly attentive throughout, especially the breakfast team. We did have a minor issue with a cockroach, but it was handled well and didn’t affect our overall experience. Highly recommend!
Shimona Zdutova
We had a great stay, especially loved the gentleman making pancakes every morning, it was my kids highlight of the trip :) also Aya and team at Kids Club, they were amazing. And Srijana the room service girl, very sweet, playing with my children, she did an amazing job - we always left the room a mess and she always made it spotless in no time! The staff is probably the best part of this hotel. The guys doing the turtle and dolphin excursions, also super sweet, i was with 2 small children and they took amazing care of them, were watching out when i was busy with the other etc ❤️

Heritance Aarah is truly one of the most extraordinary places I’ve ever experienced.
From the moment we arrived, everything was simply perfect – not a single detail was missing.
The luxurious villas, breathtaking beach, crystal-clear water, and stunning views created a paradise unlike any other.
The food? Absolutely exceptional! The quality, variety, and creativity of the cuisine were on a level I have never encountered anywhere else in the world. Every meal was a culinary journey.
But the true soul of this place is Alessandra – our guest relations officer and the angel of our stay.
She is an incredible person who anticipated and fulfilled even the smallest of our wishes with warmth and a smile.
Her attention to detail and daily deliveries of ice for our whisky are memories we will never forget.
We simply loved her and sincerely hope to meet her again one day.
The entire Heritance Aarah team provides a level of service unmatched by any hotel I have visited worldwide.
It was a true dream come true. Thank you and see you again soon!
Jas Khaw
2 couples 4 of us staying for 5 nights at Ocean Villa & then Ocean Suite.
We love everything about Heritance Aarah, this is heaven. Jaube the butler is so fun to talk to and very attentive to us.
Mani from Baani breakfast arrangement is superb. We had as many activities as time allows, wish we could stay longer. Highly recommended to anyone who loves great vacation.
Lynsey Brownlow
The staff are so friendly and personable, nothing is too much. The food is incredible whether it’s in the buffet or in the restaurants. The beach villa is a perfect slice of paradise all to yourself, the bathrooms are well stocked and spacious. We are about to move to an ocean suite villa which I believe is top tier luxury. The WiFi is excellent.
alemoniz
Heritance Aarah has been, without a doubt, one of the most unforgettable destinations I’ve ever visited. From the moment we set foot on the island, everything exceeded expectations.
The villas were incredible, the views from it were simply amazing, it looked straight out of a postcard, and having the sea under your room is just nice.
And the food? Simply outstanding. The flavors, the variety, the presentation... I’ve never tasted so nice food in a hotel.
I can’t forget to talk about the staff, from the beginning Nafiu, our butler, helped us with absolutely everything and made all super easy, but it is not just him but all the staff. The entire team at Heritance Aarah redefines hospitality, the attention is simply perfect, everyone is ready and happy to help you with everything you could need.
I just hope we can repeat!
Maitha Mohammed
I had an amazing stay here! The resort was very clean and peaceful. The food was incredibly delicious and offered a wide variety — every meal was something to look forward to. The staff were so kind and welcoming, they really made the experience even better. There were also plenty of activities to choose from. I highly recommend this place and would definitely come back again!

We spent 9 nights at Cora Cora Maldives in a Beach Pool Villa for our honeymoon – and it was fantastic. The villa, food, drinks, and overall service were all excellent. The Freedom Concept with the app and Freedom Coach made everything smooth and easy – a great way to discover the island without missing anything.
A heartfelt thank you goes to our Freedom Coach Aida, to Devi for the amazing drinks, Toy for his excellent service and Lahche. We also want to sincerely thank Muniz, Nush, and Fayaz for their outstanding care and kindness throughout our stay. You all (and many more) truly made our honeymoon extra special.
As Muiz said: “You arrive as a guest and leave as a friend.”
That couldn’t be more true.
Cora Cora – we will definitely be back!
Wojciech Zawadzki
A truly special and memorable honeymoon.
We were made feel special from the very start until our departure.
The team at Cora Cora are your greatest value, especially housekeeping, front of house, waiters and chefs.
The food and drink offerings are amazing and we like the fact everyone is equal.
The beaches, snorkeling, water sports and house reef are brilliant.
We were over the moon with our honeymoon ;)
Look forward to celebrating our anniversary one day back in Cora Cora.
Andrew
We liked that beautiful island, especially the well-kept territory, modern villas, the parrot garden. However, the overall impression was greatly spoiled by the poor management and service in some restaurants (especially the Japanese one). Perhaps it is because the hotel is constantly overcrowded and the staff is exhausted. You shouldn't expect an individual approach. In general, Сora Сora is more like an average Turkish all-inclusive hotel than a decent Maldivian resort. Not recommended.
Shankar Mistry
An exquisite holiday to Cora Cora. From arriving on the island after a 35minute seaplane transfer we were treated so well by all the staff during our 8 day stay. The island is smaller than other resorts we’ve been to in the Maldives, and it shows with how well all the staff get to know you and greet you by name each day.
There is ample activities to do, including yoga, sound healing, gym, snorkelling, paddle boarding (all free) and several other paid activities including diving, jet skiing and painting.
Be sure to do some of the little known other things, including meeting Oli the parrot 🦜 and listing to the music played underwater in the smaller pool.
The quality of food and drink is great, with ample choice and the bar tenders will always be open to making anything you fancy.
Sunsets were stunning, and if staying in the water villas ensure you stay on the “sunset” side to enjoy the views from your balcony.
Special mention to all the staff who made our stay so enjoyable, however these guys in particular;
This is the list of people I noted staff wise for our holiday:
Umar - for his wine knowledge
Kabir
Rani & Aria in Gingermoon
Tobby - for serving us almost everyday
Diana in the Spa
Kailesh - bar tender and making every effort to engage with us and answer all our questions about island life
Sajioka
Jerry
Azat & Pretty in the coffee shop
and finally Jacob the bar tender and supporting Man Utd 😀

This is a review long over due😅 We visited from Taiwan, Constance Halaveli is so beautiful and well maintained! So clean and spacious. Food is delicious and they change the food style daily. Service is impeccable. Personnel from the kids club Gigi, Juwita, Mamodha and Hauma,to guest service Diana and Hassan and everyone are all very friendly and attentive. They earned and deserve their 5 star rating! Constance Halaveli Maldives is a must visit !
vanimelde888
We were spending our honeymoon at Constance Haleveli in the maldives.
Our stay here has been nothing but extraordinary from the first minute. It is a small but beautiful island with smooth white beaches and crystal clear waters in every shade of blue and turquoise.
The resort is 16 years old, and while there are some renovations going on, our villa was in very good shape, always clean and maintained. The rooms are spacious and very well equipped with everything you would ever need at an island getaway. We enjoyed fantastic food at each of the three restaurants, one of which even being a true fine dining restaurant in the middle of the ocean - Jing. Even though we are not the biggest buffet style fans, we enjoyed every single buffet we attended at Jahaz, our most favorite one being the Indian Ocean Night, or seafood night. At Meeru we had fantastic steak and fish.
While all this is easily at 5 star level already, what makes this resort extraordinary are the generous, warm and charming people here, who made sure we felt at home from the first moment we set foot on the island. The service, care and attention to detail that the staff showed us is nothing but extraordinary and the experiences they created for us were fantastic.
Every single member of the staff went out of their way to make each day more memorable than the last.
And while it seems unfair to only mention a few names, we want to thank a few of the beautiful, smart and warm people we met at Halaveli.
Sameera charmingly managed our stay from day one and made sure there was nothing else we could ever wish for.
Sam provided us with heartfelt smiles, great conversations and perfect service on every occasion.
Sree, Puneet and Park were our sommeliers who upgraded every lunch and dinner with fantastic wines and interesting conversations. Every second we felt their passion for wines and we learned a lot about new fabolous wines. In general - if you have a fable for wines, Constance should definitely be on your radar as they offer truely fantastic wines and champagnes in their all inclusive package.
And finally we want to mention Chef Atul - the head chef of Jing. Not only was every dish we enjoyed fron him spectacular and delicious, he also went out of his way to surprise us with new creations every day, while also entertaining us with his passion for food and fine cuisine. Fantastic!
Our stay here was truly remarkable, we cannot wait to come back.
mariem abu nahl
What an amazing stay this is our third time in constance and every time we enjoy it as much as the first.
Thanks to Idris our villa host for making our stay so comfortable!
It was also great to catch up with Mr.Rasheed who made sure we had a great dining experience during our stay.
Axel Grunewald
Every single employee is super friendly and helpful. The buffet restaurant offers a variety of new creations every day, and the seating is relaxed, not like the often-canteen-like atmosphere. In two set menu restaurants (Asian and Grill), you can make reservations and indulge in delicious a la carte dishes.
It's also good and pleasant that, at least in the set menu restaurants, proper attire (long trousers) is required.
The diving center is super friendly and accommodates all your needs: every single member of staff, including the boatmen, everyone do their best!
The reef is unfortunately quite damaged, like everywhere else on the Maledives, but it's still a great place for snorkeling: blacktip and whitetip reef sharks, nurse sharks, feathertail and stingrays, eagle rays, and plenty of the usual reef fish. Unfortunately, the only reminder about coral conservation is an easily overlooked sign on the steps into the water. There should be clearly visible instructions for everyone on proper behavior in the ocean: coral-friendly sunscreen; no spray sunscreen, which, when used outdoors, 90% ends up in the environment and not on the skin; no walking on the coral!
Spa treatments are very expensive—but also very luxurious. This was the most expensive couples massage of our lives so far....
The water villas are extremely beautiful and spaciously laid out. Two walk-in closets where everyone can spread out their suitcases, plenty of storage space and shelves. A well-stocked minibar, which is included in the all-inclusive package and is refilled daily.
Mahra T
The service standards were truly impressive. Every team member was polite, respectful, and helpful, consistently delivering excellence in guest service. Many five-star resorts and hotels could learn a thing or two from this team. Great restaurants and the water villa was delightful too!
A special thank you to Sameera, as well as housekeepers Mohamed (Crypto) and Yousuf, for their outstanding hospitality. And a big shout-out to Rosh, the Filipina at the restaurant, for her photography skills!
There were other team members whose names I can’t recall, but they deserve recognition too—the Russian lady was especially polite and helpful, and the Moldovan lady from the in-house boutique was equally charming.

We loved our honeymoon at Hideaway in the Maldives. You are truly greeted in style. The water bungalows are exquisite. You are appointed a butler to arrange bookings. We also participated in the all inclusive package, went snorkeling in the island reefs and saw dolphins on the dolphin cruise. The staff are amazing and really do go above and beyond. Small criticisms, we felt that all inclusive dining should have included the bar fridge. Our butler did not really enhance our stay and we could have done things on our own accord. There is no real entertainment as night for adults (dj, parties etc.)

A Truly Exceptional Maldivian Escape – 5 Stars!❤️
Our stay at Hideaway Beach Resort Maldives was nothing short of spectacular. Having visited many islands in the Maldives, we can confidently say that this resort stands out as something truly special.
From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by the exceptional staff, who went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. Their attention to detail, professionalism, and genuine hospitality made us feel at home from day one.
The food was outstanding, with a variety of exquisite dishes that catered to every taste. Every meal was a culinary delight, showcasing fresh ingredients and masterful preparation.
The house reef is truly unique—one of the best we have ever experienced. Snorkeling here was an unforgettable experience, with vibrant marine life just a few steps from our villa.
The entire resort is beautifully designed, offering luxury, privacy, and breathtaking views. Whether you seek relaxation or adventure, Hideaway Beach Resort delivers an unforgettable experience.
Special thanks to Zaryr 🙏 he was outstanding!
We cannot recommend this resort highly enough and will definitely be returning!

Dear Hideaway. It was our childhood dream to come to the Maldives. We looked uo the reviews before coming. We expected it to be good, even great. But it has been AMAZING.
We loved it here. From the nature, to the food, and the staff.
We have been lucky enough to see so many of the sealife. So many amazing cuisines to try from at the dinners and the kind, helpful and professional stuff.
They have thought of all the details theoughout the island to make your stay really a world class experience.
We stayed at the water villa which is perfect if you enjoy the sea view all day, every day. It was clean (twice daily if you want) and fresh. Value for money (we were here in May when the off-season has started) is top notch. So many things on such a high level that this is worth it for sure. We had the half board, and it was enough (we eat quite a bit). There is also a decent gym, tennis, table tennis, padel, pool and water activitrs to choose from. We tried a couple, good experience with all.
We went on the ultimate sunset dolphine cruise and even though the minimum was 4 people, they did it just for us. And we saw the dolphins as well as (a rare sight) pilot whales. We really appreciate this!
Oh, and most of the time we felt we were alone on the island.. on the beach, at the sunsets, etc. Truly hidden away.
We absolutely recommend and we will nake sure to return someday…
Special thanks to our butler Jokey who has been amazing, helpful, full of insights and kind.
Thank you.

I have been guest on many resorts in Maldives but The Hideaway Resort and Spa is amazing. We waited 2 hours for pick up at the Male’s airport when we arrived. After that we had a most incredible vacation in our life. The reef, the food, the staff - everything has been perfect.Deluxe water villa with pool is just like on the pictures.Our cleaning guy was perfectionist. Absolutely quiet and invisible but our villa was being cleaned twice a day. We had received the latest check out so far.
Jay Ali
This is definitely a 10/10, it might be one of the best places on planet earth. Extremely friendly staff who provide an amazing service. The manager Christophe would always come say hello and was incredibly helpful. The food is top tier- the most amazing fresh breakfast. Water villa is unreal with a private infinity pool and access to the sea. Very spacious and comfortable- you could easily spend the whole time in your private villa. Restaurants were good, gym is perfect for a hotel gym. The island is one of the biggest in the Maldives and the private butler makes this stand out compared to other resorts. Muson is amazing, if you manage to get him as a butler he’s incredibly fast, efficient and helpful. He makes your whole trip a breeze. Everything from arrival to departure here is outstanding. Highly recommend staying here, it’s paradise.

Exceptional place which we tested in all different situations and they managed to find solution to everything. They built our solid trust and confidence. We took Turtle Snorkeling 🤿 and the tour was amazing. We celebrated birthday and they made amazing setup. Our seaplane was late to Male and they still managed to bring us home on time. Apart from that we have enjoyed 10+ activities on The Standard island: swimming/snorkeling, cycling, gym, running, art classes, tennis, billiard, dancing, and many more. Food was very pleasant surprise: quality, selection and taste were amazing! Just exceptional!
Tuan
We came to the resort to celebrate 40th birthday. We were amazed how beautiful the resort is. We have the over water ocean view which gives us access to the snorkeling directly and it’s a paradise to wake up with a sea view. We also toke the turtles snorkeling excursion which is really nice trip. The food at the buffet restaurant are amazing from breakfast to dinner time. Lew and the hotel manager are very helpful and understanding. We will definitely coming back when the opportunity comes.
Max Richardson
Great honeymoon, rooms overlooking the lively reef are spectacular. Saw lots of fish, sharks, rays, turtles and dolphins (on the trip). Service very friendly with high end buffet and restaurants
Liz Whippo (litzi)
It was our first time in the Maldives, and it was absolutely wonderful. The hotel took care of everything and the transfers were organized perfectly. We never had to ask for a thing. The staff was friendly and attentive, and we were always greeted with a genuine smile. We really appreciated the relaxed atmosphere combined with attention to detail.
The lagoon was stunning, and our oceanside water villa was perfect, equipped with everything we needed. We spent lots of time in the spa pool and lounging on the nets over the water. The sea life was incredible — many guests who had visited other islands said this was by far one of the most beautiful, both in terms of location and marine life.
We rented jet skis, played tennis and also went kayaking.
The food was very good, with a wide variety of international options at every meal.
A special shout-out to Poula, Shaq, and Justin for making our stay truly memorable!
Everyone else was a huge help, they took care of us from the minute we exited the arrivals gate to when the accompanied us to check in our bags and make sure we got off okay.
Thank you and looking forward to come back again.

A True Slice of Paradise
From the moment you step onto the island, you know you’ve arrived in true paradise. I’ve traveled to many countries and stayed at various hotels and resorts, but I can confidently say this experience sets a new standard — offering a level of luxury and uniqueness that’s truly unforgettable.
We were warmly welcomed by our personal concierge, Poula, who went above and beyond to make us feel like royalty. He and his team arranged a stunning private dinner setup and helped us book an incredible professional photographer. We ended up purchasing two albums because we simply couldn’t choose from all the amazing photos.
This place gave us the perfect balance of peace and adventure. We originally came to celebrate our anniversary but were gifted a once-in-a-lifetime experience we will never forget. I’ll definitely miss this place and can’t wait to return with my family.

Noor Kheder
I don’t usually write negative reviews, but our experience at Ozen was so awful that I feel obligated to warn others. We stayed at Ozen for one night only after our flight was unexpectedly canceled — and I wish we hadn’t. This resort ruined the end of what was otherwise a beautiful vacation in the Maldives.
Let’s start with the food — it was disgusting. The buffet was full of stale, old-tasting dishes. Even basic items like cereal were stale and croissants were so hard they could literally break a tooth. To make matters worse, we found bugs and ANTS in the food as shown in the pictures. I even have a video of ants walking around inside a cake and a photo of bugs crawling on buffet items. Completely unacceptable for any resort, let alone one that charges these insane prices and supposedly a luxurious one. As a pregnant woman, this was horrifying. I was extra cautious and stuck to what I assumed were the “safe” options — but even those felt risky.
Our overwater villa wasn’t much better. The pool was dirty, and shockingly, it had spikes at the bottom that could’ve easily caused injury. The room itself felt outdated and poorly maintained, nowhere near what the pictures or description promised.
Service was equally poor. We called multiple times asking for just ice, and it would take over an hour to arrive — every time. When we complained about everything to the manager, all they did was offer a meal as compensation. No refund, no accountability, and no sense of urgency to fix the problems. It felt like they just didn’t care.
For the ridiculous price per night, the quality and service were an absolute joke. This place markets itself as a 5-star luxury resort, but in reality, it’s more like a poorly run 2-star hotel with a pretty view.
What makes this worse is that we had just come from Conrad and Hilton Amingiri, which charged around the same price per night — and gave us true 5-star luxury with great food, service, and facilities. Ozen charges the same but gives you a low-end, chaotic, and unsafe experience — even while advertising itself as a premium all-inclusive resort. It’s a scam.
Do yourself a favor and stay somewhere else. We left feeling ripped off, disappointed, and honestly just grossed out. Avoid this place if you value your health, comfort, and money. It completely ruined the final memory of our trip. Never again.
M U
Room: We stayed at water villa with pool which was well designed to allow you to see ocean from everywhere in the villa from bathtub, shower room and even toilet. Mini bar was refilled every day and filtered water was provided too. I found the stairs to the sea is a bit dangerous as it was too steep and rusty. Not much coral in front of the villa, but managed to see few small fish and stingrays.
Service: From start to finish, everyone was very welcoming and call you by name and greet you whenever they see you in the resort. Butler will help you to arrange any requests you may have.
F&B: Considering it’s all inclusive resort, food options are on the wider side especially if you stay longer than 4 days, basically you get to experience all the restaurants at least once during the stay. Quality wise, the resort we stayed after (non AI) was a lot better. For example, Bahn Mi was far from the Vietnamese Bahn Mi that we know and some of the ice cream had strong
artificial taste, doneness of the steak are hit or miss (I maybe a little picky as I have F&B background). However considering it is AI, I guess it is still acceptable yet there is definitely a room for improvement in this area perhaps by focusing more in quality over quantity.
Activities: There are some free daily tours available in AI, such as daylight cruise(you may see dolphins if lucky), snorkeling tour etc. They are only about an hour so if you are not so keen to sign up for chargeable and longer tour, yet still want to experience Maldives activity casually, it is a great option.

Our recent stay at OZEN LIFE MAADHOO in the Maldives was truly unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, we were met with warm, attentive service—especially towards our adult son with special needs. Every staff member made an effort to ensure he felt included, safe, and valued, and we cannot thank them enough.
A special highlight of our stay was the extraordinary care from Executive Chef Alok Verma, who ensured our son had avocado sushi for every lunch and dinner, regardless of which restaurant we visited. He even prepared Swedish meatballs with mashed potatoes and gravy, just for him—a heartfelt gesture that meant the world to us.
Each of the resort's restaurants offered something unique and wonderful:
The Palms is the heart of the resort’s dining, offering a lavish selection of international dishes in a relaxed, beachside setting. The buffet features live cooking stations and an abundance of fresh ingredients, many of which come from the resort’s own hydroponic garden. The team here was always welcoming and accommodating, and every meal felt like a feast. It was a perfect place to start and end our days.
M6m (Minus Six Meters) is the resort’s breathtaking underwater restaurant, where we dined surrounded by a vibrant marine world. The experience was both magical and serene, with exquisite seafood dishes beautifully paired with wine. Watching the reef life while enjoying fine cuisine created an unforgettable evening. It’s truly one of the most unique dining experiences we’ve ever had.
Traditions IndoCeylon brought us on a flavorful journey through South Asia, with dishes rich in spice, color, and cultural depth. Each plate was a celebration of heritage cooking, crafted with care and authenticity. The ambiance was intimate and elegant, enhancing the overall experience. We especially appreciated the balance of bold flavors and gentle hospitality.
Traditions Peking showcased the sophistication of Chinese cuisine with modern flair. From delicate dim sum to flavorful stir-fries, every bite was expertly prepared. The setting was tranquil, making it an ideal spot for a quiet dinner. The staff was knowledgeable and happy to guide us through the menu.
Joie de Vivre was our go-to spot for relaxed lunches and sunset cocktails by the pool. Their wood-fired pizzas were delicious, and the atmosphere was casual yet chic. It was also a great place to unwind after a day of activities. The views from the bar as the sun dipped below the horizon were just spectacular.
LONU is signature Maldivian restaurant, offering a modern twist on traditional island cuisine. Set along the serene beachfront, it presents beautifully crafted small plates using local spices, herbs, and sustainable ingredients. The flavors are bold yet refined, and the presentation is as stunning as the setting itself.
We also took part in several excursions: a dolphin tour, fishing trip, and snorkeling adventure. During the snorkeling tour, one of the resort’s marine biologists stayed by our son’s side, holding his hand throughout the entire swim—a deeply moving and thoughtful gesture.
At one point, we needed medical attention, and it was reassuring to know there’s a doctor on site who could prescribe antibiotics immediately.
Also our visit at the spa was a true experience.
Another highlight was visiting the resort’s hydrogarden, where they grow their own vegetables sustainably. This resort is proudly nominated for Best Sustainable Hotel in the Maldives and Best Executive Chef in the Maldives (2025), and they truly deserve to win.
The resort is run with precision and care under the leadership of Swedish General Manager Elisabeth Alleyne, whose professionalism shines through every aspect of the guest experience. Everything—from the food and service to sustainability and guest care—was flawless.
This resort is a place where luxury meets heart. Their staff go above and beyond, their food is world-class, and their commitment to sustainability is inspiring. We left with full hearts and beautiful memories that will stay with us forever.

We have just returned from 11 nights at this stunning resort. We stayed in a sunrise side, earth villa which did not disappoint. It was spacious, luxurious and the outside bath and shower were huge and great - something we'd not experienced before. The mini bar was re-stocked daily and we became partial to a mid-morning glass of pink champagne on our sunbeds. Aswell as a large variety of drinks, the mini bar contained chocolate, crisps and nuts. The large dressing room behind the main bedroom had plenty of storage for clothes and shoes. Extremely comfortable, super king size bed. Great to have air conditioning. Our room was serviced daily to a very high standard by Salauddin, and our butler, Ayush, arranged all our dinner, spa and excursion bookings for us. He responded very quickly to any Whatsapp messages we sent him. Butlers will pick you up in a golf buggy and take you to wherever you want to go on the island, however, we did not use this service as nowhere was very far away to walk to at all. All restaurants were amazing!! Chefs were very accomodating and would cook whatever we asked for. We enjoyed lunches and evening drinks at Joie de Vivre most days, and it was also great chatting to the staff in there. Every member of staff we encountered was happy, asked how our day was going and whether there was anything more they could do for us. The complimentary spa treatments (I think there were 5 treatments to choose from) were amazing. The beach was incredible and we came across sharks, sting rays and many beautiful fish whilst snorkelling a few metres out from our villa. Always plenty of free sun beds and towels by the pool area and at Hondu Bay. Really appreciated that the island was not over crowded with too many guests - sometimes it felt like we were the only people on the island! The boat transfers to and from the airport were very efficient. Ozen staff took us and our cases right up to the check in desk. Can't recommend this resort highly enough and really hope we have the opportunity to return someday. Thanks to everyone there for making our holiday so special.

My very first time in Maldives and I was having a blast with my partner.
The shower gel in our room is diluted with water.. we ordered 2 pizzas and an hour later it weren’t there still… later in the evening we went to M6M restaurant and I ordered medium rare steak and the steak was so chewy and hard, couldn’t even cut it with knife.
I’ve been ignoring all those small details as everybody makes mistakes and I don’t really complain and write bad reviews, until on my last day - I saw what they do with the sparkling water. Half glass of schweppes soda and top it up with filtered water. That’s why I couldn’t taste the bubbles, I thought I was having a high standard of water back home, but I kept quiet all the time still.
Since I saw that, I told them I want the whole can of soda. TWICE. But they kept serving me the same thing. Until one of the server who knows me exchanged it to a proper soda water.
Cut story short, I knew its gonna be my last few hours before saying goodbye to my partner and I won’t be seeing him for the next 2,5weeks - so we ordered room service 3hrs before my departure from the island from our butler and advised him to let us know the ETA of food. An hour later, he gave us an excuse bc chicken satay needs sometime to prepare after being asked where’s the food, 1,5hrs later the food hasn’t even arrived. There is a reason why we ordered room service is bc we wanted to spend time together before I leave, but now we literally had to waste our time to wait for the room service and had to go to another restaurant.
Was expecting to see our butler to send me off and apologies for the inconvenience caused, he wasn’t even there let alone replying to my message.
Its ridiculous. Really bad customer service.
Literally ruined my whole week of great time. Definitely not coming back to this resort.

Perfect all around 👍🏻
Our family stay at the villas over the water and the rooms are large and new (all villas had been renovated). The rooms were cleaned up twice a day by very attentive house keeping staffs.
The location is perfect and the resorts have so many things to offer. The beaches are beautiful and have both beautiful sun rise and sun set views.
Every staffs are friendly, attentive and hard working.
This was our second time to visit this resort and we will have our third time for sure 😊
Great job, Anantara 👍🏻

The location is nice with lots of activities to do and many types of foods and restaurants. The only thing I was disappointed of was the cleanliness of our bathroom which had visible signs of usage by previous people (dirt in the bathtub and hairs on the toilet seat) which I found unacceptable for such an expensive and high end wannabe place. Other than that no complaints, the staff was accommodating. One more mention is that the villas on land have a lot of mosquitoes breeding in the outdoor bathrooms and showers and bushes so for more sensitive people like me that made it impossible to stay out more than 2 minutes without getting bitten several times at once . Other areas of the island didn’t have mosquitoes and the villas over water also had none. I recommend staying over water for sensitive people. The hairdresser is also not doing a great job in my opinion, she burned my hair doing a simple wavy hairstyle and scratched my scalp during the wash, not worth the money. The massages and facial treatments are very good . There is a bike for each person to use for free. UV index is very high on the island so make sure to use sunscreen plenty. The breakfast is amazing and probably was my favorite part of the day.

Anantara Dhigu is pure paradise. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warmth, thoughtful details, and effortless hospitality that made every moment special. The service was exceptional—every staff member was incredibly friendly and caring, making us feel truly valued. The resort’s location is stunning, with lush vegetation providing shade from the heat, a beautiful beach with soft sand and the most beautiful blue shades of a water that make swimming a dream. A special thank you to the lovely Taylor, whose attentiveness made our stay even more seamless. I would return in a heartbeat.
Ralph
Amazing. Kadir made our experience perfect and took care of anything we asked for. More importantly, the island was perfect and I felt for the first time in my life being in heaven on earth. We had access to a few more islands which made it even more fun. The food was 10/10. I will come back one day.

Absolutely incredible stay! The food was out of this world, every meal was a highlight, with so much variety and amazing flavors. The service was exceptional: warm, attentive, and always with a smile. Our villa was beautifully designed, spacious, and spotlessly clean, with stunning views of the ocean. The entire experience felt like a dream from start to finish. Can’t wait to come back someday!
Khaleel Ebrahim
Our stay at Kuredhivaru Resort and Spa was absolutely incredible. From the moment we arrived, we were surrounded by stunning natural beauty, warm hospitality, and peaceful luxury. The overwater villa was spacious, beautifully designed, and offered breathtaking views of the lagoon – waking up to that every morning was a dream.
The resort itself is immaculately maintained, with white sand beaches, clear turquoise waters, and lush greenery all around. We especially enjoyed the spa – incredibly relaxing – and the variety of water activities available. Snorkeling with vibrant marine life was a highlight of our trip!
Dining was another standout, with excellent options and attentive service. Every meal felt special, whether it was beachside or under the stars. We also want to thank Zack, our island host, for his kindness and helpfulness throughout our stay – he made everything smooth and stress-free.
Kuredhivaru is the perfect destination for anyone looking to unwind in paradise. It’s luxurious without being overdone, and offers a true sense of serenity. We left feeling completely refreshed, with memories we’ll treasure forever.
Highly recommend this resort to couples, honeymooners, or anyone in need of a peaceful tropical escapes.
신은지
It's an extremely subjective review. I came here on my honeymoon, and I brought my pregnant wife to this resort.
First of all, Butler assigned to us is Nelly. All reservation agencies are perfect and we helped you enjoy the resort 100%. Other employees were always kind with smiling faces and always cared about their pregnant wives. (It seems that employees communicate with each other)
Secondly, food. Although my wife was pregnant and didn't have much to eat, most of the food was fine. I ate so many kinds of drinks and I'm very satisfied.
Third, room condition was fantastic. Everything was fantastic as I saw on the Internet. Room service was also fast and satisfying.
I really appreciate all the employees at the resort, and Nelly, who helped me a lot. I need to make a lot of money to come back here. Thank you for giving me a good memory. See you.
Zeinab Farhat
Our stay at Kuredhivaru Resort & Spa was absolutely perfect! The resort is a dream for honeymooners pristine beaches, luxurious villas, and breathtaking sunsets.
A huge thanks to our butler, Viaam, for his outstanding service. He was always attentive, ensuring every detail was taken care of with a smile.
The food was incredible, fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. From romantic beach dinners to lavish breakfast spreads, every meal was a delight.
Highly recommend for couples seeking a romantic escape!
Bernie
Just returned from a 5-day stay at Kuredhivaru Resort and it was easily the best Maldives experience we've had (our third visit to the country). Huge thanks to our amazing island host Li, who took care of every detail and made our daughter's 12th birthday extra special with beautiful room and restaurant decorations. Her bilingual support was incredibly helpful too.
Dining was a joy thanks to the super friendly F&B team – Buddhika, Gihan, Vihanga, Michelle, and Jasmin – who ensured every meal was memorable. At the dive center, Jinah impressed with his local snorkeling and fishing expertise, and Kaleb was a patient and professional instructor who made diving safe and enjoyable for my wife and daughter on their first dive ever.
Stunning location, top-notch service, and unforgettable memories. Highly recommended – we hope to be back again soon!

This truly is an experience of living on a an island in the middle of the ocean, there’s so much to do on this island that you need for five days here they have a whole array of sports including tennis, Pickleball, swimming jet, skis, sail boats, scuba, diving and fishing. They have many different restaurants on this island, and we never got tired of eating at the same place. May I also added the breakfast is included every morning and it’s one of the best breakfast since I’ve ever had.
Khương Nguyễn Duy
A true paradise! Best location in Maldives! The staff was incredibly friendly, cheerful and helpful. The food was absolutely delicious, so many choices, so many different cuisines with impeccable service. The rooms are big and spacious and the beds are beyond comfortable! Excellent cocktails at the bar by the pool with great music performance each night!
Ned Lambton
Very good resort but very expensive. Beautiful place. Is it worth it? Let's just say it's a supremely relaxing holiday if you can afford it, but personally the prices made me a bit anxious. The service is faultless and courteous as you could imagine and the restaurants are on the whole excellent and it's generally picture perfect. I did move villa because of the noise from he desalination plant, but the noise didn't bother my wife. Everything that makes a Maldivian holiday special is present here. The only unauthentic thing is that the stunning island and its beaches are largely man-made, not that you'd know it though. Perhaps there may be a certain lack of charm, but that could just be the Russian gangster guests, who in any case are easy to avoid. The management has a party once a week with unlimited free canapés and drinks, so that's good. A new 60ft Azimut boat takes you there, so that's cool too. I Can't really complain, but I won't be returning because I'm just not rich enough.
Chadwick Miller
It's expensive, sure. But you get what you pay for. Everything at Reethi Rah is meticulously cared for. I believe the staff to guest ratio while we stayed was something like 4 to 1. Amazing food at every restaurant on the island.
The only negative, apart from the general price of the place, would be our experience with mosquitoes. I didn't expect them to be quite so bad. They were numerous and really hampered our ability to enjoy the private pool. To be fair to One and Only they did spray our villa promptly on multiple occasions when we requested. And while this may or may not be something One and Only can control, I would still think twice about visiting the Maldives again during the rainy season.
