Best resort I’ve been to so far — top notch in every way. Personalized service that makes you feel at home, food that’s the bomb, and villas all built offshore so you get your own live aquarium right under you. If you’re into water sports, Gili has it all — sailing, snorkeling, diving, you name it. And it’s only 20 minutes from Malé airport, so no long tiring transfers. Our 4D3N trip was just perfect. This is my second time in the Maldives and it still feels like paradise. Big thanks to our Mr Friday, Markib & Taslim, and the whole crew for the best hospitality ever ❤️

I stayed there in July for 3 nights, the service in the resort is beyond expectations, usually in high end luxury hotels they do whatever you ask for, but at GILI they go beyond they do it before even you ask for it. Every one in the hotel is welcoming and they all know ur name , all the staff no matter where u go in the resort they all know u and welcome u like a family member. I wish I could give more than 5 stars. Will definitely visit again

I stayed at Gili Lankanfushi Maldives for 3 nights and the experience was nothing short of magical, a little piece of heaven indeed. The resort is just a smooth 20 minute speedboat ride from the airport and from the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and completely at ease. Everyone I met made me feel at home with their warm and genuine hospitality. My Ms. Friday, KK, was incredibly efficient and thoughtful, she handled all my requests promptly. I went to the jungle cinema, held only on Fridays. Even though it had rained just before the movie started, the team had placed towels on the chairs to keep them dry and the setup was cozy. There were popcorn and soft drinks, which is a nice touch. I also went on the dolphin cruise, which was unforgettable. There were plenty of dolphins swimming alongside the boat, such a joyful and calming sight. Dinks and beautifully presented canapé were served on board, making the cruise feel both relaxing and luxurious. From the peaceful surroundings and stunning villas to the thoughtful touches and friendly staff, every detail felt carefully considered and it’s clear the staff take pride in creating a meaningful and memorable experience for every guest. I would absolutely return and recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful luxury escape in the Maldives.

This place is absolutely amazing. 20 minute boat ride from Male. It is an expensive island and many islands can be had for a fraction of the price, but you are paying for the exclusivity. Not many people on this island. About low 30 over the water bungalows. A handful of them are not connected to the island called Robinson Crusoe. They give you bamboo framed bikes to ride around. They take some getting used to as the frame isn’t solid. This place is beautiful. Everyone gets a butler and they are at your service. You can swim and do some water activities and relax. Not much else to do here. Would definitely go back!

Had an amazing time! Villas were beautiful. Resort is outstanding from service to food to activities. We did morning yoga, snorkeled with turtles, and enjoyed the resort amenities. It is a beautiful and laid back atmosphere. But the staff is what really stands out - our favorites were Hari (head chef), Bo, Santo, Alisha, and Moad. Initially, Rashid was our Mr. Friday, but he had a family issue and we got Naff for Ms. Friday. She was just perfect. Can't wait to go back to this beautiful and serene resort.
