Reethi Faru, Bio Luxury Resort

Die Reise und der Aufenthalt in Reethi Faru bleibt unvergesslich in unseren Erinnerungen. Es gab nichts zu bemängeln. Wir hatten nur Frühstück gebucht, was sich für uns als richtig herausgestellt hat. Somit konnten wir jeden Abend in einem der Restaurants auf der Insel Essen. Bei Vollpension oder All Inclusive wäre das Nachtessen nur im Hauptrestaurant (Buffet) möglich gewesen, bzw. in einem der weiteren Restaurants nur gegen Aufpreis. Die Zimmer sind gut gepflegt und ordentlich gereinigt. Kaffee, Tee und Wasser wird täglich kostenlos im Zimmer nachgefüllt. Room-Service zwei Mal am Tag, was wir jedoch nicht beansprucht haben, indem wir jeweils nach der Morgenreinigung "bitte nicht stören" an die Türe gehängt haben. Die Mitarbeiter sind ausnahmslos zuvorkommend und hilfsbereit. Wir verbrachten viel Zeit auch im Tauchcenter (wir machten eine Brevetierung). Die Leitung des Tauchcenters steht unter schweizer Führung und genau diese schweizerische Qualität an Zuverlässigkeit wird auch an den Tag gelegt.

Bella isola verde e tenuta in stile maldiviano. Pulizia eccellente. Camere belle e confortevoli. Escursioni troppo costose. Acqua ai pasti da pagare. Viaggio per raggiungere il villaggio in volo domestico, troppo lungo 4 ore di attesa all'andata e 5 al ritorno

As most of the reviews agree, everything about Reethi faru is great. We stayed in Garden villa 225 - excellent finish, very comfortable bed, nice and quiet (and cool) - and very close to the beach, and the best snorkeling entry points. Garden rooms don't get dedicated sun loungers, but we were always able to get a couple near Nala Bar. We were B&B, and ate our dinners in Reethi Grill and Dhiyavaru - friendly staff, and outstanding food. The dive shop are friendly and helpful, and we had two good snorkeling trips with them (including a reef manta). What many reviews fail to say, is just how good the Reethi Faru house reef is! The coral has (like everywhere) suffered, but there are areas of good re-growth. However, the fish are amazing! Depending on the time, tide, and light, we mainly snorkeled the reef edge from entry point I to III (and back, in the shallows) and the reef edge from entry point VIII to VI. The very best spot we found (for fish) was around midday to enter at point 1, and go left (north) along the reef edge for about 50m toward the north-east point. (But you ONLY want to do this when there is little current running). In 8 days of snorkeling (twice a day) we saw (photographed) 187 species of fish, 3 species of shark (lots of black tips, one grey, two lemon), and 3 species of ray. Also two cephalopods and several hawksbill turtles.

This place is just paradise. The staff, the facilities, the food, drinks, the wild life and house reef are incredible. It is just an unbelievably breathtaking resort. My partner and I stayed only four days and will definitely be returning for a longer stay. It is such a great treat for your well being to walk around the jungle pathways and visit the different restaurants / bars they have to offer. It is a very romantic, peaceful place. The wait staff and chefs were all so incredibly polite and talented. I was incredibly happy with their awareness and care around allergens. I have a nut allergy and was treated not as a problem! The range of alcoholic beverages on the menu was fantastic - I was impressed to see that it included Aperol too! The reef and snorkelling around has an abundance of marine life making every dive exciting. Staying in the water villa meant that we had most of that area to ourselves. We brought water shoes and our own snorkels too. We booked with a company called FABGETAWAYS who arranged the seaplane and the all inclusive premium package. The package means that you receive some excursions / water sports included in your deal. It is definitely worth the price. The rooms and decking of the water wills are not the newest or most modern but they are authentic and really give that island feel. The shower and bathroom is modern enough with a beautiful bath and the dreamiest outdoor shower (there is another indoor one if you prefer). The cleaning staff here were amazing and always kept the rooms looking great! They stocked with lots of water and were always so friendly in passing. If you’re looking for tranquility and quality time, stay here. TIP: don’t forget to look up and see the amazing stars at night!

This is the most beautiful place and resort, a real paradise. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, couldn’t do enough to help. The place really took your breath away. The wrap round all inclusive package was brilliant, allowing us to go to any of the outstanding restaurants on the island where the service and quality of food was brilliant. The snorkelling was fantastic and loved doing the guided snorkelling each day with the experienced staff. The bar and entertainment was brilliant. The island facilities were great, easy to walk round see sunsets and sunrise and grab drinks, towels as wandered from bar to bar. The water villa was stunning and such a treat to be in, with its outside rain shower. The sea plane ride was amazing. The medical staff were also superb.

An absolute paradise! We enjoyed our stay at the Reethi Faru Resort and can only recommend it. The island is beautiful, the bungalows are luxurious and the staff are extremely friendly and helpful. The food was excellent, the selection was large and the quality was always top. The beach bar was our favourite place to enjoy the sunset. The excursions and activities that the resort offers were also great. We decided on a boat tour and even saw dolphins! We can only recommend the Reethi Faru Resort and would love to come back. It was an unforgettable holiday!
