I am an independent Travel agent and wanted to find the perfect place for myself and My husband’s Honeymoon! I trawled the Maldives islands online and came accross this beautiful island. Unlike the others, it stood out to be a true Maldivian Island with a natural vibe and something that was picture perfect! From the moment we arrived at the airport. The staff were exceptional, wasn’t keen on the very fast speed boat ride but I’m a wimp! We arrived to a lovely welcome from Oli and some gorgeous drinks! Everything was explained really well and we were shown to our room. The rooms are lovely, very clean and turned down twice daily, immaculate! The rooms could do with a refurb if they want to modernise but we found them to be fine and always clean! We also had a full body couples massage at the spa, this was amazing! Well worth having a massage when you go! My husband had a very unfortunate experience with a caterpillar which had been in his clothing when outside drying so word of warning… check your pants before you put them on or you could end up with a nasty rash! But what I can say is the staff particularly Oli and the doctor were amazing! They instantly inspected the trees, swept outside everyday twice daily and made sure he was ok, even gave us a romantic dinner on the beach which was incredible! The food throughout the 10 day stay again was beautiful, lots of variety and so fresh and well cooked! Our waiter was quiet, polite but we thought maybe he could have been a bit more interactive with us, maybe something he can work on… other waiters seemed more friendly!but it was fine… Snacks in the bar were a little space but after breakfast and lunch you didn’t really need snacks… Ice cream would be nice though to get during the day as an Idea…. we did the shark feeding trip and I must say that is a MUST if you go, it was incredible and they are soooo close!!! When I arrived I was scared to go snorkelling as I knew there were sharks, the dive school gave a really informative talk about what to look out for and what not to do etc in the water and assured us the sharks where not a danger… and they where right! I’ve now swam where the sharks are and seen them whilst in the water and they don’t come near you, they just go about their business, incredible! The snorkelling is just insane! I got more confident each day and so did my husband, we spent hours out there (just be careful as I burnt whilst in the sea even with factor 50! But wow! Incredible snorkelling! Good choice of cocktails however no Pina colada on the all inclusive option so that was a bit of a bummer but wow the mint cooler was gorgeous ! I was Amazed also by the wildlife, the herons. The fruit bats were awesome.. the little crabs everywhere, lizards… I loved it ! All in all a fantastic honeymoon and I would 100% recommend this resort… although not as swanky as a 5 star… do you really need swanky in the Maldives ? Not really ! Get out in the water and spend your time outside! A coupl
