Kagi Maldives Spa Island

We booked a week here through Simply Maldives. This was a truly memorable experience from the location, service, food and drinks. We had an ocean villa facing the sunrise. We did a lot of snorkelling around the beautiful reef and saw many different types of fish. From arrival to departure, the service level of the staff was outstanding. We treated ourselves to a massage and wine tasting which were both superb. Overall an unforgettable experience and one we hope to experience again one day. Thank you to everyone.

This is not the first island we have visited, but this is the one we returned to for the second time, and we plan to come back again next year! For those looking for a fair balance between price and quality, this is the place to be. Here, you’ll find excellent staff, well-appointed rooms, a beautiful house reef, great food, and much more. The house reef is perfect for snorkeling with kids, and the underwater world is truly stunning! The staff remembers your preferences and sets up your table accordingly, ensuring a personalized experience. This time, we were even given a tour with the engineer to see how everything works behind the scenes. It’s delightful to see that many of the staff members from last year are still here, as well as returning guests, which is a testament to the island’s excellence. Thank you for an exceptional vacation to the entire Kagi team, especially the 145 staff members who work tirelessly to ensure an unforgettable experience for every guest!

Fantastic vacation our first time in the Maldives at Kagi resort! Everything was great, the restaurants, the spa with the gym, massage etc, the beautiful clear snorkeling sea but in particular we appreciated the fantastic persons working on the resort, smiling and giving great service all the time.

Kagi is a beautiful resort. Visited in June which is slightly non peak. it was wonderful to enjoy the luxurious facilities with no scrum. Environment/Reef: reviews will tell you that this has one of the best housereefs close to Male (15 min by seaplane, 1hr but speedboat) and I agree completely. I am a relative amateur to scuba/snorkeling but I was delighted to see live coral polyps in various colours all over the housereef despite the recent mass bleaching. Fish life is plentiful. During our stay, we also saw eagle rays, sting rays, hawkbill turtles and numerous nursing and black tip sharks. Timing is important of course, as most sightings were at just after dawn and just before dusk. I would suggest full coverage snorkeling gear as "sea lice" bites can be quite vicious at the border of reef and open waters (might be basic basic to some but it was news to me lol) Overall I sense that the island is kept very well and the resort does try to preserve the environment as best as possible Service: service at Kagi is top notch. The warmth and enthusiasm of the wait staff in the restaurants always astounded me. (although some of the newer staff obviously were struggling with basics still, their efforts were still commendable.) My group was a little big so we still had to occasionally ask them to make up for shortfalls (eg towels, tooth brush, shaving kit) but these were all attended to promptly on request. Very good service but not at the level of telepathy that one sees in other places. The food at the 3 restaurants is very good (8/10 : Delicious but not to the level you want them to setup a branch in your home country) We all enjoyed the food tremendously. Mornings with freshly baked croissants were a treat! If I had to quibble, it might be the fact that we were limited to 3 portions to choose from starter/main/dessert each meal despite being premium all in package. We were very full on those and truthfully most humans wouldn't survive eating more than those 3 portions 😂 but by principle alone, it doesnt sit well. Rooms: The island is immaculately kept despite being 3years old. The over water villas we stayed in were very clean (no weird smells) and well maintained with poweful aircons and good pillows/beds. The setup seems to be leaning toward couple holidays as the bathroom does not allow simultaneous use of the 2 indoor/outdoor showers without exposing yourself completely to your fellow roommates. Perhaps provision of folding shower screens for non couple stays might help. Otherwise the rooms are beautiful and very comfortable. Overall Kagi deserves the high praise it gets. Highly recommended.
