We stayed in an over the water sunset villa, which was very comfortable, clean and had great facilities with fridge, wifi, coffee machine and a large bathroom with both shower and bath. It was kept spotless by Suranga who could not have been more helpful and who kept us entertained when we returned to the villa with his brilliant chalk drawings of all the different types of sea life in the Maldives..

We had an amazing trip at this resort it was jaw dropping beautiful and was everything I imagined and more was well worth the 20 hour flight! One thing I would have loved the resort to have more of is maybe some music by the pool and more theme nights but overall we loved every minute the snorkeling was out of this world! So many reefs and different fish to see absolutely incredible!!!

Amazing hotel in paradize. The island is small and exquisite, beach is around the whole island, water and sand are unbelievably beautiful. The island is small, and the hotel occupies the whole island. Very quier resort, but if you want music and party, they have big beautiful bar, where people watch sunset and hang out. The transportation to the island from Male is well organized by the hotel, just give them your flight number. AAA resort, highly recommend.

Great resort with very friendly service staff

Booked 7 days with the resort for my honeymoon, stayed at both water villa and beach villa. Overall my wife and I were very pleased by the service and condition of the rooms. It all begins with the waiting lounge at the TMA airport while we waited for our seaplane. The lounge is spacious and comfy enough for us to spend close to 3hours. My wife even had a complimentary shoulder massage there! Free-flow drinks and pastries were definitely a huge plus as we while our time away. And when we finally reached the resort, the coconut welcome drinks really relax and refresh us as we wait for our rooms to be ready. Upon mentioning that we were there for our honeymoon, we were issued a Honeymoon Dinner voucher, which turned out to be a awesome 4 course dinner, complimentary from the resort. With everything so pricey in Maldives, this free dinner was very much welcomed. We really enjoyed our stay with Vilu Reef. All thanks to the service staff and the hospitality they provided.

My personal resort host Niyaaf greeted me immediately upon my arrival after traveling for almost 36h to get to my resort from Canada. Despite traveling alone I felt safe and welcome the whole time. The resort staff give a loving family vibe. Everything from the delicious food to the breathtaking house reef was amazing. Very flavorful food, good presentation, excellent service. The excursions were awesome! I got to snorkel with a whale shark and many Manta rays. We saw Dolphins on that excursion and even more on the Dolphin sunset cruise. The Water sports team was fun and knowledgeable about the reefs we went on the snorkel safari to. The dive team were an amazing group, they even let me try scuba diving for free for the first time in my life. If i had more time and didn't go snorkeling so much this trip I would have tried to get my scuba diving certification. Hopefully I can come back to get it here one day! I can't say enough about how wonderful my stay was here. To me, Sun Siyam Vilu Reef was little taste of heaven on earth! Thank you so much to all of the staff. I will come back again!

My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon, and we had an amazing time! We stayed in a sunset reef villa and had amazing views of the ocean, and were able to jump straight in and start snorkeling which was absolutely incredible. The resort was beautiful, and had heaps of brilliant beaches, resting places and amazing photo opportunities. Very quiet and relaxing ambiance. In terms of included activities there’s dj nights, crab race night, Maldivian dancing night etc, a pool table, ping pong, kayaking and stand up paddle boarding. There’s also plenty of activities to do if you’re willing to pay, the scuba diving boat excursion was excellent and well worth it, the scuba staff were fantastic. There’s 3 restaurants on the island, which plenty of variety. We opted for the all inclusive package, and it’s definitely worth it if you want 3 solid meals a day with unlimited beverages. If you don’t drink much and eat less you could get away without it, as it is quite pricey. That being said the all inclusive was fantastic, and the service was incredible throughout the resort. The staff were so friendly and helpful. Special shout out to Shayanth and Poonam who were outstanding, as well as Ayman, Sududera and Didi who were fantastic. Overall would highly recommend staying at this fantastic resort, and we will hopefully go back one day!

Ein absoluter Traumurlaub in einem außergewöhnlichen Resort! Die Insel ist sehr gepflegt, das Personal ist sehr aufmerksam und löst jeden Wunsch von den Lippen ab. Das Essen ist abwechslungsreich und sehr lecker mit indischem Touch und Themenabenden. Das Hausriff ist wunderschön zum Schnorcheln, ebenso das Erlebnis, in einer der Wasservillen zu leben. Der Hinflug mit dem Wasserflugzeug über die Riffe war ein einmaliges Erlebnis. Lediglich die Verzögerung von 1:30h bei Ankunft, da die Buchungsbestätigung von Expedia nicht an das Hotel übermittelt wurde, war sehr ärgerlich.

Average for a Maldives 5-star hotel

Please note that the island is very close to the local island wich has very industrial outlook. Half of Vilu Reef island faces that local island with huge rusty garages etc and it’s clearly not the paradise you expect from Maldives. Villas are nice and comfortable (we lived in water villa). Service is strange for Maldives: personnel does not appreciate the privacy of guests (they will clean your villa when whey wish asking you to free it for the cleaning!!) despite you were out for 3 hours leaving the table that your villa was empty. Necessary amount of towels and bath robes was repeatedly obtained only after complaints to the batler - some very basic thing which should be done by housekeeping. We do not recommend to take AI - all AI beverages except beer is of a very poor quality, we realised that it was better to take FB and pay extra for the normal beverages. This was our 5th trip to Maldives and we will surely return again but not to this hotel.

The apartment (aqua honeymoon suite) was amazing. The food was exceptional. All inclusive was excellent with everything you need included. The best part was the staff. Everyone in the bars and restaurants were amazing, so helpful and so friendly. Especially the guys in the pool bar and Falak, Reddy and Sudha in the nautilus bar. Brilliant customer service. Muja was also an excellent liaison person.

Todos no hotel foram super atenciosos conosco. Ficamos na Aqua Suite e o quarto era limpo, confortável, enorme e silencioso. Além de estarmos em lua de mel, resolvemos fazer a renovação de votos lá. Todos foram super pacientes e fizeram tanto do dia do casamento, quanto de todo o período em que estivemos lá, algo mágico. A única coisa que deixa um pouco a desejar é a comida. O café da manhã tem uma variedade enorme e é excelente, mas o almoço e jantar muitas vezes nos deixaram sem muita opção, pois a comida era muito típica e apimentada. Nada que uma massa feita na hora com os ingredientes a nossa escolha não nos salvasse.

A cheap resort - No free water served in restaurant. In-room breakfast was offered for our honeymoon incentives. But the portion is ridiculous small. We wanted to leave some bread for later, the housekeeping guy took it away. He left the bread basket outside the room. We saw some bread got eaten! The restaurant served cold food or overcooked food. They dont know how to cook seafood. It’s all dry! On the other day we ate raw meat! Loud music played until late night. It’s very annoying!
