Our family had an absolutely wonderful stay at this resort! From the moment we arrived, the hospitality was outstanding — every staff member we encountered was warm, attentive, and truly made us feel at home. The food was simply delicious, offering a variety of dishes that pleased everyone in our family. Each meal was thoughtfully prepared and full of flavor. The serene spa experience was a true highlight — peaceful, rejuvenating, and exactly what we needed for a relaxing getaway. The entire resort radiated tranquility and charm, making it the perfect place to unwind together. We are so grateful for the amazing service and memorable moments we shared here.

Stunning place. Everyone knows Maldives from it's beautiful turquoise water, but Amilla is full of greens as well! Astonishing small jungle where you can feel like on a "desert island". Water villa is well equipped and stuff provides with everything what's requested. All restaurants serve delicious food and in addition you can sign up for cooking class, where chef will guide you through the garden and show all kind of homegrown herbs.

This was our "once in a lifetime" trip to celebrate a 20 year anniversary. We had such a fantastic time! The attention to detail in everything from the food to the cleanliness of the villa was top notch. The staff anticipated our needs and provided all that and more without even being asked! They took exceptional care to accommodate my severe food allergies which is a rare find even in many luxury resorts. Our "once in a lifetime trip" looks like it will be an annual event as we are now planning to return next spring.

Thank you to the Amilla team for an unforgettable holiday in the Maldives! ❤️ I’d give 4.5 stars if I could. The island is stunning: a perfect mix of peace and quiet, but also plenty to do if you want (many restaurants, tennis and football fields, multiple beaches, and activities). I can definitely recommend this place. Reasons why I can’t give a full five stars: -Our first evening was a disappointment as we were given a room full of bugs and with a broken modem, meaning no Wi-Fi or TV (all hotel services are handled through WhatsApp or the resort app, so Wi-Fi is must!). Thankfully we were given a new room the next day -thank you for that! -but for the first night we felt that this hotel was disappointment and even planned to leave early. - The service wasn’t quite five-star level- we had to ask for things multiple times, such as a solution to the Wi-Fi problem, pre-arranged buggy rides, or for the bikes we were given, which had flat tires. In the end, we just pumped them ourselves because we got tired of chasing staff about it. - Everything is extremely expensive, even by Maldivian standards. The transfer from the airport to the hotel costs over €1000 per person, and nearby luxury resorts offer flights for hundreds less. Food and activities were also very pricey for example, a group dolphin-watching boat trip (10 people total) cost about €500 for two people, and we didn’t see a single dolphin. It would have been fair to offer a partial refund or at least a chance to join again the next day. Lunch, for example a pizza was around €50, and 20 minutes on a jet ski cost €160. We often ordered the cheapest wine available, but when the bill came, the most expensive had been charged. We didn’t always have the energy to argue about it Special thanks for the excellent cleaning - the housekeeping staff cleaned the room perfectly and were very friendly. The restaurant staff were also fantastic, I’m annoyed I don’t remember their names, but the waiters were true stars of this resort! The nature and marine life on this island are also absolutely incredible.

About to finish up a fantastic stay here. The staff service and the quality of food have been top notch. We were very impressed with every meal that we had. All of the staff members that we encountered were very attentive and warm. Special thanks to Asst F&B manager Mr. Murray for his special care during our dining experiences and interesting conversations about his home Maldives, Mr. Gondo for his excellent and quick responses for house needs, Mr. Shahid, Lesley, Ms. Alma and Jaya for their meticulous services through out the resort, and Mr. Ahmed for his spotless housekeeping. The room and facility felt a little dated, but nothing major to deter us from hopefully returning soon. Perhaps next time, we will get to stay at a renovated villa that they are currently working on. The snorkeling experience around the resort has been excellent, especially with the help from kind staff at the activity center and the diving center. Plenty of fish, sharks and turtles in the water for visitors to see. Overall, I hope to come back here again soon, and would recommend it to anyone who are considering the place.
