Idylle au soleil

Venus ici pour nous reposer, nous avons pleinement profité du calme et du cadre magnifique du resort. Compréhension parfois un peu laborieuse avec le personnel (maîtrise de l'anglais indispensable) mais qui reste dans l'ensemble souriant et serviable. La qualité des repas est satisfaisante et relativement diversifiée. Davantage de plats locaux et fruits exotiques serait en revanche très appréciable. Prévoyez de manger au resort car vous n'aurez pas accès à l'extérieur (nécessite liaison bateau) Ce n'est pas Ibiza : ne venez pas ici pour faire la fête vous seriez déçus. Mais si vous désirez couper de la métropole et vous ressourcer au calme, cet endroit est fait pour vous. Activités un peu onéreuses, dommage pour l'absence de jet ski qui aurait complété l'excellent centre de plongée à proximité. En résumé : calme, repos, soleil, et cadre magnifique. Vacances en couple réussies pour nous.

Wonderful resort with a wonderful staff. The food was great, the entertainment good. The only bad thing is that it‘s quite remote and only reachable via a domestic flight. Flight times are very rare, so I had to leave the resort at 3AM (!!!) to catch the connecting flight at 12PM in Malé.

The food quality was very disappointed. All-inclusive package is not valuable. Many drinks need charge. Environment is ok. Food and drink are very disappointed. As an all-inclusive package, it doesn’t include many drinks and mini-bar, this is can’t acceptable.
