(629 reviews) The island is breathtaking. I stayed in an overwater bungalow and it was absolute perfection. Very clean, verrry comfortable. I recommend the buffet over the restaurant. The restaurant meals were very hit or miss. Some of the service was excellent, others seem miserable and distracted. Saad at the dive school is a fantastic teacher for those who are first timers to snorkeling. If youre a smoker, bring your own cigarettes as a pack is $35 at the bar. If your a non-smoker, be aware that people smoke in pretty much all public spaces. My suggestion would be to bring USD and tip great servers, concierge and bartenders well ($20) early in your stay - it will elevate your experience 100%. They will go out of their way to make your stay the most comfortable.

A huge highlight for us was having our own hotel representative. We were assigned Toga who was absolutely amazing. His communication was excellent throughout our stay, and he handled everything for us effortlessly. He checked in with us regularly, and sorted anything we wanted or were interested in without us ever having to worry. He truly made our holiday stress-free. The island itself has loads to do with some paid water activities, which was perfect. We were especially impressed with the endless food choices, no matter the time of day – there was always something available and plenty of options for everyone. The evening entertainment was really enjoyable, the beaches were spotless, and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming at all times. Every member of staff went out of their way to make us feel comfortable and looked after. This was a truly special holiday and one we’ll always remember. We will definitely be visiting again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this hotel to anyone considering the Maldives.
