Bugs in overwater villas, windows that didn’t properly close. Not enough activities

The staff are exceptionally kind and helpful. The resort has lovely beaches and adequate water activities to keep you entertained. The snorkeling was amazing! The prices for food and drinks should just be inclusive of taxes and service charges rather than the ++ format they use. All deck areas should be thoroughly cleaned as there were a few roaches and lots of ants crawling around in the evenings. The location in the south atoll is also good. They are very well equipped for boat safety.

We really enjoyed our stay in Kandooma. This is our 10th resort in the Maldives (from mid range to high end) and this one was the best value for the money. spent. Lot of thought has been put here and there into small details which make a significant difference at the end of the day.

My wife and I spent a week at the resort and could not have asked for a better honeymoon experience. The staff is quite wonderful, and treated us like we were family. Whether you are into watersports (fishing, diving, snorkeling, windsurfing, etc.) or just laying on the beach with your toes in the sand tropical drink in hand, this place is for you. The prices for meal plans, drink plans, and activities were all quite reasonable. The staff was very meticulous about everything, and I was amazed at how clean the facilities were (considering it is a beach resort). The food was great, and we definitely recommend the private dining experience. Thank you Holiday Inn Resort Kandooma for making our trip memorable. We will be back soon!

Alot of activities, you will not get bored. everything in the hotel perfect.
