Some Vacations are Unforgettable
This place is heaven! I still dream about it. Get your scuba certification and prepare to be pampered. I got engaged here. Basically you get three resort in one and a good amount of privacy. Drinks are expensive but they have to import everything. Once in a lifetime. Don’t think just book it.
Traveller's tip on dining
You don’t necessarily need to go full or half board. If you don’t go with a meal plan then you have no restrictions and can go to any of the three resorts many restaurants.

Terrible Service for a five star hotel
After a great stay at three other 4-5 star Maldive hotels with impeccable service. We found Anantara to be severly lacking in comparison. You have to call at least 5 times for any request to be fulfilled. A broken phone was never replaced during our stay and the A/C continued to leak water w/o maintenance ever arriving. The attitude of staff was dismal with no smiles and the beach was riddled with garbage. This was the first beach in Maldives for us to find sandals and other garbage during snorkeling. The arrival and departure itinierary was never made clear and had to call multiple times for bellboy to deliver/pick-up luggage. The food was also not very good and pricey. Hotel aware of need for late check out for big group of 10 and promised this to be of no problem. However backed out of promise at last minute without consulting with us. Hotel intended to leave our group without any rooms and had to fight with staff for at least one room available for 10 people to rest until time of late check out. Very poor service overall for a 5 star hotel especially after experiencing the great services and food at the other islands.

very nice & pleasant place and i recommend it
i went to this hotel in august 2008 with my wife. in general the hotel is very good, its quit but it has a variety of activities. the room facilities is exactly as mentioned ( i stayed in deluxe over water bungalow) & i had reasonable privacy. the beach is very clean and the white sand is irresistible but u might see small harmless sharks. the food wasn’t that good & expensive. the staff are very helpful and nice they are always smiling. but i dont recommend it for travelers with children cos there is minimal activities for them.
