RIU Atoll

My second time here, this time we stayed in Atoll hotel. My two points are: rooms are soundproof 100%, same as in Palace hotel, AC is perfectly cold. Food, drinks are amazing. My favorite place to recharge now. Speciality Restaurants first come first served, no more booking through the App. Main restaurant is open for breakfast 07:30-10:30, lunch 13:00-15:00 and dinner 18:30-22:00. There is 24/7 bar where you can get some tea and coffee, sandwiches, snacks if you didn’t make it. Some water sports are also in all inclusive package, but you need to go to water sports center and wait in line to get yours. Find out more with staff, as they do it only when the high tide. Beach is the most amazing at the end of the island, near villas 24, we didn’t swim in the swimming pool but I saw some aqua aerobic class was happening in the afternoon. (Which I never went to 😂) Actives mostly on a first come basis, bar by the pool is for sunset music and vibes. Fitness center is in the spa building. Also, if you choose seaplane transfer, do it but get your seats close to the pilots. They had better AC. Was very warm in the plane. Seaplane takes 50 min, and local flight would be nearly 1h10min. The difference is just you will have to take a 10min boat from the airport to get on the island when you arrive by manta air local flight. Seaplane lands just there.

My stay at Hotel Riu Maldives was exceptional and left me with only positive memories. From the very beginning, the hotel impressed me with its atmosphere, professionalism, and genuine care for guests’ comfort. A special mention goes to Saddam, the housekeeper responsible for room 1709. His work was outstanding — the room was always perfectly cleaned, fresh, and carefully prepared. His attention to detail, daily kindness, and warm smile made my stay even more enjoyable. I truly appreciate his dedication. The restaurant staff also deserves high praise. The service was polite, professional, and always ready to assist. The food was fresh, tasty, and varied, and the atmosphere in the restaurants was very pleasant. The overall organization of the hotel and the friendly approach of all the employees make this a place I would gladly return to. Thank you to the entire team at Hotel Riu Maldives for a wonderful holiday and excellent service. I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel to others. Dorota and Artur

An unforgettable experience. I didn’t find a single flaw: the facilities are beautiful and carefully maintained, and the cleanliness is outstanding. The food is delicious, varied, and always plentiful. A special mention goes to the staff — kind, attentive, and able to make you feel truly at home. A place that stays in your heart… and makes you want to return even before you leave. 🌴✨Thank You Riu ❤️

RIU Atoll has it all: beautiful little island with an incredible beach , excellent accommodation, great service, excellent food choice and quality, fantastic staff ( thank you Deep and Nasam for your constant smile and making our holiday a little bit more enjoyable). We loved snorkeling by the reef and the sunset DJ was fab. Highly recommended!!
