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.

This is the second time I have stayed at this Hotel. The reef is amazing lots of sea life, sharks, fish, rays and the odd turtle. Island is really small you can walk round in about 15 minutes. Spa is good we had a couple of massages and were really relaxing. Food was good Tip - laundry service great $54 for unlimited washing would definately recommend Would not recommend speedboat transfer too choppy - seaplane is so much better.

The resort is excellent for snorkelling. A short swim through the shallow sandy water to a rich variety of coral and fish. It’s like being in an aquarium. We were able to snorkel around the entire island over our stay. The resort itself was good value for the cost. Not super fancy nor do you get the personal touch like you get at other resorts in the Maldives but still good overall. The room was modern and always clean. Overall, a good resort to stay at and I would go back.

Be aware, Bad Points - despite the Expedia listing that facilities included the use of water sports activities such as kayaks etc are part of the all inclusive package this turned out to be untrue with a kayak being charged at $50 an hour. The return airport transfer was dangerous as the hotel sent us out in a sub standard boat into a storm which resulted in us returning to the resort after 55 minutes at sea, after taking on too much water. Passengers were sick and crying, fearing for their lives. The management team were very poor at communicating on our return and in their words sent us out “on a bigger boat and a captain that knew what he was doing”. After finally arriving at Male Airport we were soaking wet and so was all our luggage and stinking of diesel from the first boats engines. Annoyingly the customer service team appear to be from the same group as they have failed to respond to our concerns about guest safety. We stayed in an Ocean view superior room but the bathroom was dated compared to other rooms we saw. Good points - service staff are great, special mentions to Shifaau, Raishan, Shareef, Azmoon, Iqbal and Akrum in the restaurants. They looked after us throughout our stay. The Spa and the lady’s there were lovely. Snorkelling on your doorstep is some of the best we had experienced.

What is there to say about this property. Whilst staying here for a week of vacation I was made to feel at home by the most amazing staff I have ever come across on my travels. It started with Gehani, who welcomed my partner and I to the island, and made every request we had to her come through. She was one of the most helpful and genuinely caring persons we met who helped make us feel at home at this resort. Also, sucil and leem went above and beyond to always ensure our needs were met and that anything we asked for was available to us. The food was amazing every single day and we particularly liked chef sanjewa who always provided quality meals. Additinally, moosa helped make our stay within our villa always magical with his birthday and honeymoon celebratory creations. Whilst the staff were amazing and created a truly enjoyable stay, I cannot even begin to talk about the reef which surrounds this island. I’ve snorkeled many places around the world and this was truly the most beautiful, vibrant and alive reef with thousands of fish, sharks, and rays we’ve ever seen. I was truly astounded and loved that the staff continue to make every attempt to protect the reef. I will recommend this resort to anyone who loved snorkeling and diving and who really enjoys being a part of a family because the staff at this resort truly make you feel at home.

Overall the property is well kept. The water bungalow is nice and clean. One of best snorkeling in the Maldives. It's quite and relaxing. If you're looking for a lot of entertainment then this is not your place. There're only two restaurants. Food options were not great. I give it a two stars on the way the food was prepared. Not very tasty. I would not pick this resort if you are a foodie person. Some staff are not very friendly.
