If relaxation and simply enjoying the majesty of God is on your menu, this is the place for you. The paid actors are the beauty of the Indian Ocean that you get to marvel in from the overwater bungalows and the incredible staff. They are so sweet and attentive. Everyone. The bartenders made me "my own" cocktail and the ladies at the spa have been blessed with magical hands. Also, the all inclusive package is a really good value!

An Unforgettable Stay in Paradise We recently had the pleasure of staying at this stunning property in the Maldives, and I can confidently say it was an experience beyond perfection. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warm smiles and exceptional hospitality. The staff went above and beyond to ensure every aspect of our stay was seamless and memorable. The service was truly impeccable. Every request was met with promptness and care, and the staff’s attention to detail was outstanding. Whether it was personalized dining experiences, organizing excursions, or just the daily housekeeping, everything was handled with grace and professionalism. The team made us feel like the most important guests at the resort, catering to our every need.

I’ve traveled to several different countries as a solo traveler, and I had higher expectations for Maldives. The service was decent. Some of the excursions were a little overpriced. There was a dirty mop smell near entrance where the mini bar was located. I thought housekeeping would have done something about the smell considering it was very strong. The chef at Tex Mex during the morning shift makes great food according to the menu. When I went back in the evening on my last day to purchase the same meal, the Nachos were completely different from what I had in the morning and it was difficult for me to finish the food (didn’t want to waste it). I did inform two staff members at the restaurant and the waiter asked if I wanted another one and I told her it would still come out the same because of the chef who’s cooking the meal. So all in all I paid for a meal I didn’t enjoy. This was the case for the items in the mini freezer, when I arrived I was told that the drinks in the freezer were complementary. When I went to grab a drink that turned out to be alcohol, I took a sip and it wasn’t good so I disposed the rest of the drink and I told the housekeeper this and I was still charged. In that same freezer I found something that appeared to look like mold on two of the alcohol bottles, and that could have contributed to the dirty mop smell I smelled around that area. I wasn’t aware that I was suppose to get VIP amenities during my stay, it sure didn’t feel like a VIP stay.

Very relaxing. Most staff very nice and accommodating. A few weren’t as friendly. I also noticed they allow garbage to float in the ocean around the shore, which bothered me, but apparently not them. Styrofoam, glass, plastic, wrappers, chips containers, etc. also looked like sewage leaking into water big time along one side of beach. Room also wasn’t too clean and had a lot of bugs. Bedding also smelled a little like previous guests sweat. But what to expect when it’s an island?! Food was amazing! All you could want and more. Very relaxing vibe overall. Thankful there was no loud, blaring music or rowdiness. Felt safe and comfortable. Would recommend!
