Trip advisor reviews are pretty spot on about the place. My husband and I just had 9 nights here. Great large resort with lots of varied rooms. Beach front rooms are lovely but some are a bit outdated. We stayed in 213 then upgraded to 305 I recommend this stretch of beach and paying the extra if you can comes with own pool. All inclusive is definitely the best way forward on this island as prices in the Maldives are much higher than I remember. Also also sun loungers by pool always busy so go early or try to get room with one. But the best thing about the resort is the hard working and wonderful staff. Love to name check a few because they really made our stay special. Rejin Vinay - buffet front was the most wonderful guy. Perfect service and always made sure you had everything we wish him well. Shafiq - super service and attention to detail and no request was too much - like arranging a Key Lime Pie for us! The wonderful ladies at the buffet reception. Zaheed back station at buffet Serena - our island host very accommodating and helpful Viju - buffet Muhammad - buffet Cowshal - fellow Man U fan Viniu - fruit station and desserts always smiling Nazim head chef very talented Guna hook restaurant made our evening special Ajim grill master wonderful attitude and made our stay special At the spa Binju - had amazing deep massage.

The best thing is that you get your own advisor who helps plan the entire stay and acts as your personal guide to the island. We got Ms Diyu who made our 30th anniversary a memorable one. Would always recommend this property if you want a taste of original Maldivian hospitality and flavours. Read less
