The hotel

The adult-only Centara Ras Fushi Resort & Spa offers a truly serene atmosphere in idyllic island surrounds. Beach Villas and Water Villas are scattered around the island, allowing for peace and tranquility aplenty. Upgrade to a Overwater Villa with Swirl Pool and you’ll have your own private outdoor spa bathtub. Down at the beach is an oceanfront pool and well-being area, aptly named as you’ll feel very well indeed here. You can also spoil yourself to a treatment or two at the Spa Cenvaree, a blissful sanctuary offering Thai massage as well as ancient Ayurvedic treatments to banish any lingering cares. With the resort in such a great location there's a plethora of stunning scuba diving sites, amongst the Maldives’ most sought-after spots, reached within 20 minutes by dhoni. There’s also snorkelling and both non-motorised and motorised water sports to tempt you. Island dining is a treat at the Centara with several superb restaurants to choose from. Oceans Restaurant serves International, Asian and daily themed buffets while Al Khaimah features an authentic Bedouin tent with Middle Eastern-style grilled meats to feast on and Arabic delights. Alternatively, dine Italian style at La Brezza or on Thai fare at Suan Bua, two speciality restaurants that overlook the beachfront pool. Overwater Viu Bar is one of the highlights of the resort and deservedly so, its circular shape and oversized hammock seating affording unobstructed ocean views. There’s also a very popular pool bar to while away an hour or two, sipping on exotic cocktails.

This is our third visit to the Maldives but our first visit to this beautiful resort. We were greeted by the friendliest of staff and this continued throughout our stay from the maintenance guys, housekeeping to the waiters/waitresses. A special mention to the chefs as the food in all the restaurants was amazing and nothing was too much trouble. The Thai was my favourite for flavours and the Moroccan had a really authentic atmosphere with carpets and cosy cushions. The chicken skewers were probably the safest option here. I had the fish which was a bit overcooked. The oceans restaurant was always good with delicious authentic food and lots of choice for vegetarians too. It’s a very safe idilic island and the staff work tirelessly to ensure the guests have the best time. We choose a garden villa which I actually preferred to a water villa, the rooms may not have been as modern as some of the newer resorts but everything was clean and towels and bedding changed daily. We had sun-beds right outside our patio doors with a stunning view of the sunset. It was Halloween whilst we were there and the resort put on a seafood buffet with entertainment on the beach. This was truly incredible and the staff worked so hard all day at setting up a ghostly passage through a grave yard of sand and headstones with spooky music and authentic costumes and traditional Maldivian dancing. This was then followed by an incredible selection of food including bbq lobster tails, giant prawns, grilled chicken and lots of spooky desserts. Definitely worth the extra charge. Well done to all. A massive plus for me was the twice daily fogging to eliminate the mosquitos which worked a treat and I didn’t get a single bite!! For me this usually never happens. My only real gripe is that we were charged $114 for the buffet lunch on our departure day which I thought was quite steep. Maybe this should have been incorporated in the overall cost of the holiday. All In all we liked the fact it was only a 20-25 minute speed boat trip from Male to the island so a much quicker transfer than a seaplane and without all the hassle of making sure your luggage wasnt overweight for the plane.

The resort is well kept and very clean . Needs improvement in certain areas. - check in could’ve been better if they have an air conditioned area since most people are tired and exhausted upon check in .

The resort is well kept and very clean . Needs improvement in certain areas. - check in could’ve been better if they have an air conditioned area since most people are tired and exhausted upon check in . It was very hot and humid in the lobby - my husband was sick first day and we couldn’t get a hold of anyone over the phone . No room service available the line was busy for 2 hours . Front desk line it’s either busy or no one’s picking up .. with my husband running a fever and diarrhea I had to seek help outside our room and ended up in their gift shop - no medications for sale , you have to finding with their in house doctor to have access for any kind of medications . The doctor was very helpful though . All inclusive doesn’t mean you have unlimited access to any drinks .. certain cocktail drinks are not included in the package , paid drinks weee beautifully decorated , but drinks from all inclusive plan is very basic glass abd a straw 😖. Room service isn’t included as well on meal plan , the choices were not impressive and expensive. Oceans restaurant I think was a top notch place for me, the variety of food and quality and taste is just amazing . The staff , from the hostess to waiters and omelette cooks and managers are all welcoming and kind and super nice ! Viu bar Johir bartender is awesome as well and arif at waves , some bartenders are dry and unfriendly. Housekeeping staff does a very good job as well . The rooms are pretty well laid out , amazing views of the water . Activities are great as well they keep guests busy ! Read less
