My wife and I stayed at Radisson Blu for our honeymoon, and we had a great time during our stay.
The staff were friendly, our arrival including seaplane arrangement were all well managed.
We stayed at the sunrise villa, and the ocean view was unobstructed and beautiful. The resort even had set up some honeymoon surprise for us for our stay.
The resort offered many different events. We went to both the Manta and Whale Shark snorkeling, and the experience was truly amazing. Special thanks to the crew at the dive center, including Coach Bilal, Captain Umair and crew Aiham. They were super friendly, professional and took good care of us during our snorkeling events. This was our first time snorkeling, and we were impressed how beautiful the ocean is.
Overall the stay at Radisson Blu was great. We for sure will come back and stay at the resort again in the near future.

We had the most wonderful experience at Radisson Blu Maldives. A piece of paradise. We had the sunset overwater villa with amazing views, spacious rooms, and lovely rimflow pool. Our host, Charan was responsive and helpful. We had a spectacular whale shark swimming experience and Nafiz and the team were so helpful and took great GoPro videos. Food was great with large variety. It was our honeymoon and we were welcomed with champagne and cakes. Although the resort was 80% capacity, we felt like we had the whole island to ourselves at times.

We celebrated our honeymoon over 7 days in an overwater sunset villa. The service at the resort is incredible, and we were constantly attended to for any request. Our island host, Mahmoud, took great care of us and helped to arrange anything we needed, including a private dinner on the beach for my birthday and our dolphin excursion included with the premium all inclusive. The upgrade to premium all inclusive was definitely worth it, and included lots of bonus activities. We really enjoyed our wine tasting at The Lab with sommelier Ruwan. We gave us such an incredible history of the wines we were drinking. We also had two great dives with Subu from the dive shop.
Our villa was spacious and super private. If we had neighbors, we never heard or saw them. It really leant itself to feeling like your own private little paradise. We really enjoyed all the food we had during our stay, and found the drinks to be delicious as well. We really couldn't overstate how incredible our stay and all the staff we encountered was.
