Stayed here for almost two weeks. Perfect service and great food. One remark, the tours were the worsted we ever had. But we heared that a biologist is soon starting again. Hopefully this changed the culture of the boatmen. ##### Elisabeth Wilhelmina Stayed 13 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lisa 3 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Eine perfekte kleine Insel, mit sehr freundlichen und zuvorkommenden Personal. Alles war perfekt. ##### Lisa Stayed 8 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rumi 9 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities チェックイン時に英語がわからない私達に嫌な顔1つせず翻訳を使って説明してくれました。到着日は強風と雨で天候が悪くレセプションである程度説明してもらいすぐに部屋に案内してもらいました。 お部屋は新目のリゾートなので清潔感はありました。電気関係も海外で使えるものだったたら変換なしで大丈夫というのが良かった。 ビーチ前のお部屋だったので数歩で海へ行けるのも良かった😄 ダイビング目的ではあったが、NOVAのハウスリーフにパウダーブルーの群れが見れるのを知っていたので、その写真が撮りたくダイビングサービスのスタッフに何回か翻訳を使用して色々聞いてようやくどこにいるかはわからないけど午前中が良いかもと教えてもらい4時間シュノーケルをして撮影できた。ダイビングスタッフさんありがとう😊 Soul kitchenの食事は総合的に私達の好みに合ってました。ちょっとスパイシーすぎるのもあったり、スープは体に良いなという味が多かったかな?でも特にパン系、デザート系は美味しかったです。 全体的に一回も嫌だなと思ったことはなかったので大満足です😄 ##### Rumi Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Stefano 24 Feb 2025 Disliked: Amenities Tutto ##### Stefano Stayed 6 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Felix 21 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Felix Stayed 9 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robert 9 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Paradies auf Erden.

Das Personal ist super aufmerksam, das Zimmer wird mehrmals am Tag gemacht und die Anlage ist sehr gepflegt, sauber und schön angelegt. Die Beachvillen sind sehr privat gestaltet und haben ihren eigenen Strandzugang. Mit all inklusive kann man viele alkoholische Getränke (nicht alle) und die meisten Speisen im al a carte Restaurant bestellen. Ich kann Nova nur herzlichst empfehlen ##### Anna Stayed 8 nights in Jun 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Luca 23 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Deludente. Mia moglie e’ Rimasta intossicata per il cibo ( in generale di pessima qualità’) ed è’ stata malissimo per due giorni dovendo ricorrere a farmaci che per fortuna avevamo portato con noi. Non metto una stella solo per la spiaggia ( bellissima) e ben tenuta. Per il resto data la vacanza rovinata per via dell’ intossicazione non posso salvare nulla. Sicuramente non merita le cinque stelle e non vale certamente il prezzo pagato di mille euro a notte per un resort che non grado di offrire sicurezza nei pasti offerti. ##### Luca Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### daniele 18 Dec 2023 ##### daniele Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### GRACIELA 2 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Two things stood out: 1) Chef Ali's attentiveness to my gluten allergy. I was treated to bespoke meals (especially desserts) as well as gluten-free options made available at request. 2) The joy of the staff as they did their job, especially their efforts to upgrade me to the finest property available as a solo traveler. The conditions were pristine. ##### GRACIELA ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laurent lucien 29 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Laurent lucien Stayed 8 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Haesuk 2 Oct 2023 ##### Haesuk Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### tsutomu 8 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service 水上ヴィラに数日滞在してきました。とてもホテルも新しく部屋清潔感があり、スタッフの対応もよく、海も砂浜も最高に綺麗です。オールインクルーシブの朝昼晩ビュッフェの種類はあまり多くないですが十分な量だと思います。食事の評価としては平均的に美味しくハズレは少ないです。お酒はカクテルがおすすめです。 マイナス面は部屋にはスリッパやパジャマなどはないため持っていくことをおすすめします。海に長時間入り冷えた体を温めたいと思っても基本お湯は出ません。また帰りの水上飛行機の時間もチェックアウト前日の夜しかわからないため、帰りの予定が組みづらくマレで一泊して調整しました。 ##### tsutomu Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Silvia 25 Dec 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Esperienza perfetta! Struttura recentemente ristrutturata e curatissima ! Personale gentilissimo e pronto a prendersi carico di qualsiasi richiesta ! Per quanto riguarda il cibo nell’isola ci sono 3 ristoranti, due alla carte e uno buffet dove c’è una scelta vastissima di pietanze in più gli chef (estremamente gentili) sono disponibili a soddisfare anche richieste extra ad un menu già vario ogni giorno (in 10 giorni non abbiamo mai trovato le stesse cose da mangiare)!! l’atollo sud Ari è considerato il top alle Maldive ed è vero.. il resort ha una misura giusta ne troppo piccolo ne troppo dispersivo, il reef attorno pieno di pesci, squaletti, razze ecc per gli amanti di immersioni e snorkeling è un sogno …il resort offre vari tipi di escursioni (squalo balena, mante , tartarughe, pesca e altro… noleggio kayak , attrezzatura da sub e snorkeling tutto) a prezzi molto convenienti comparando altre strutture! Cosa importantissima il trasferimento organizzato alla perfezione sia andata che ritorno in circa 20/25 minuti di idrovolante senza lunghe attese ! Un ringraziamento particolare allo Chef Alì, grazie di cuore per la sua premura e gentilezza un vero professionista! ##### Silvia ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cherry 11 Nov 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities ##### Cherry Stayed 6 nights in Nov 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Nabila 17 Aug 2022 ##### Nabila Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2022 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Diamonds Thudufushi Maldives Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Thudufushi-Island-Hotels-Diamonds-Thudufushi-Beach-Water-Villas-All-Inclusive.h4595589.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Island Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Horubadhoo-Island-Hotels-Royal-Island-Premium-All-Inclusive-Resort.h1501450.Hotel-Information) > > [OUTRIGGER Maldives Maafushivaru Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maafushivaru-Hotels-Lti-Maafushivaru-Maldives.h5248538.Hotel-Information) > > [Angaga Island Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Angaga-Hotels-Angaga-Island-Resort-Spa.h11673084.Hotel-Information) > > [Adaaran Select Meedhupparu - 45 Minutes from Male by Seaplane](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Meedhupparu-Hotels-Adaaran-Select-Meedhupparu-Premium-All-Inclusive.h2256805.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Blu Resort Maldives with 50 % off on Sea Plane round trip 03 nights & above](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Radisson-Blu-Maldives.h45693918.Hotel-Information) > > [Vilamendhoo Island Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vilamendhoo-Island-Hotels-Vilamendhoo-Island-Resort-Spa.h1668041.Hotel-Information) > > [Fiyavalhu Resort Maldives](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mandhoo-Hotels-Fiyavalhu-Maldives.h46561949.Hotel-Information) > > [NH Maldives Kuda Rah Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kuda-Rah-Hotels-NH-Maldives-Kuda-Rah-Resort.h16054819.Hotel-Information) > > [Adaaran Prestige Water Villas - with Dine around Premium All inclusive - 24 hours – 45 Minutes from Male by Seaplane](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Meedhupparu-Hotels-Adaaran-Prestige-Water-Villas.h1520790.Hotel-Information) > > [South Palm Resort Maldives](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ismehela-Hera-Hotels-South-Palm-Resort-Maldives.h31543567.Hotel-Information) > > [Mirihi Island Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mirihi-Hotels-Mirihi-Island-Resort.h1395195.Hotel-Information) > > [Machchafushi Island Resort & Spa Maldives, The Centara Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Machchafushi-Hotels-Centara-Grand-Island-Resort-Spa-Maldives.h4925143.Hotel-Information) > > [LUX* South Ari Atoll](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dhidhoofinolhu-Island-Hotels-LUX-South-Ari-Atoll.h1520422.Hotel-Information) > > [Sandies Bathala](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bathala-Island-Hotels-Sandies-Bathala.h33096418.Hotel-Information) > > [Siyam World Maldives - 24-Hour Premium All-inclusive with Free Transfer](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Siyam-World.h53715771.Hotel-Information) > > [Canareef Resort Maldives](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Herathera-Hotels-Canareef-Resort-Maldives.h12263621.Hotel-Information) > > [Ayada Maldives](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maguhdhuvaa-Hotels-Ayada-Maldives.h7353026.Hotel-Information) > > [Soneva Jani](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Medhufaru-Hotels-Soneva-Jani.h15375843.Hotel-Information) > > [Cora Cora Maldives-Premium All-Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maamigili-Island-Hotels-Cora-Cora-Maldives-Premium-All-Inclusive.h67541796.Hotel-Information) > > [Villa Park Sun Island Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nalaguraidhoo-Hotels-Villa-Park-Sun-Island-Resort.h2917878.Hotel-Information) > > [OBLU XPERIENCE Ailafushi - All Inclusive with Free Transfers](https://www.expedia.co.uk/OBLU-XPErience-Ailafushi.h72915265.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ritz-Carlton Maldives, Fari Islands](https://www.expedia.co.uk/The-Ritz-Carlton.h58998476.Hotel-Information) > > [Lily Beach Resort & Spa - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Huvahendhoo-Hotels-Lily-Beach-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h8751436.Hotel-Information) > > [Kuredhivaru Resort & Spa Maldives](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kuredhivaru-Hotels-Movenpick-Resort-Kuredhivaru-Maldives.h28858949.Hotel-Information) > > [You & Me Maldives - Adults Only - Premium All-Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Uthurumaafaru-Hotels-You-Me-Maldives.h36035737.Hotel-Information) > > [Conrad Maldives Rangali Island](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rangali-Island-Hotels-Conrad-Maldives-Rangali-Island.h564176.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Palace Maldivas - All inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kedhigandu-Hotels-RIU-Palace-Maldivas-All-Inclusive.h35002724.Hotel-Information) > > [JOALI Maldives](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Muravandhoo-Hotels-JOALI-Maldives.h22699380.Hotel-Information) > > [Cocoon Maldives](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ookolhufinolhu-Hotels-Cocoon-Maldives.h15440435.Hotel-Information)
