Aside of the great property and services, the most stunning thing i have noticed is that the Maldivian people are very polite, calm, honest and helpful, starring from the airport employees, transportation, staff of the hotel. Thank you Maldive for this warm and welcomeing experience 🌹

The place is absolutely beautiful – a real paradise. The staff are wonderful: helpful, welcoming and friendly. The prices for activities and food on the island are quite a bit higher than on other islands. But the facilities, the service and the personalised touch they bring to your experience are incredible. We had a wonderful time; we’d definitely go back or look forward to returning! ❤️

A 3 star holiday. Very expensive for what it is. Property is very old, and not updated, but very clean surroundings. Welcoming on arrival was zero. Extra attention, zero. Restaurants and public facilities like an oven. No air-conditioning.

The beach villa is nice. Close to a small beach. You can walk to any place from the room, but the facility sends you a buggy to pick you up and drop you anywhere you like. The room is clean, the staff is super friendly at all times. Balcony faces the beach but there is some green and some trees in between. Still nice private room.

The place was nice, food was good, but expensive and the staff very helpful and friendly, overall the resort was good. The things i did not like was to surf you need to book through the perfect wave travel which doubles the price of the room. To be fair the team at perfect wave at the resort did a good job and put on nice surf trips. But for value for money stay at the neighoring island, quarter the cost and organize your own surf trips, specially if theres a few of you surfing

Great hotel, from the warm welcome to last farewell everything was smooth and highly enjoyable. We loved the fact the whole island is set in lush greenery and i feels very private despite full occupancy. Staff is extremely friendly and helpfull. We stayed on half board basis and there was always something to choose from. I am sure there are better resorts for snorkeling but if you you are patient you find some good marine life as well (we did snorkel on the surf beach behind the reception) which we later discovered we were not supposed to do but it was the best. One thing I’d consider a downside is the restrictions that may feel ovewhelming, like the kids club that only allows playstation for kids only between noon and 2pm, swimming pool opened only till 6pm and the use or only certain beaches for snorkeling.

The food was good and rooms nice and clean (if you got what you expected), however the resort is not what it is being advertised as, this more of a super expencive Hotel and not a reasonable Resort (under staffed, 1 pool not 2, No "waterslide" and so on...) No issues paying for what we get, but not getting what you payed for is so disappointing. Kinda false advertising. I suggest asking for a map prior to booking.

Staff were really helpful and service was top notch. For budgeting purposes, guests should read the fine print of fees such as transfer fees, applicable taxes, additional guests fees, etc. Overall, we had a blast and will go back.

A pleasant and beautiful stay

Food was amazing, but the same food every day, except for one BBQ day. The room was excellent with a spectacular view of the sea and birds chirping. There was no problem with the internet, but there were times when there was no signal. Overall, I recommend everyone to stay, and the employees treat customers with the same level of class as the customers treat them.

Great holiday in Maldives. We were well taken care of by the staff and would like to thank all of them, especially Rateesh (Supervisor), Boopathy and Gothoo who did everything to make our stay a memorable one and enjoyable one. Breakfast - lots of choice even if vegetarian, Asian/European. The snorkeling is amazing and there is a chance to see lots of sea life including stingrays! Overall couldn't ask for better...

First time at Maldives and we loved it. The ocean is magical. The staff (exept the sport center) was unique with kindness and care. Only would suggest some refurbishment on any plain wood as the railing or floor ect. . But overall we completely recharged ourself and felt very happy to be there.
