Was pretty good, A Fantastic Stay

vibrant reefcomfortable mattressindividual sunbedssnorkeling tours

The island features a vibrant reef close to the hotel, teeming with fish. The mattress in my room was very comfortable. Individual sunbeds were provided for each bungalow. The hotel offered complimentary snorkeling tours where I saw turtles (a highlight), sharks, and various fish. The location is convenient, just a 50-minute speedboat ride from Male.

Desserts at dinner were not always to my taste.

Service

10/10

The staff was attentive. They proactively offered assistance. During breakfast, a waiter noticed I wanted more orange juice after the service had ended and brought it to me without me even asking. (Such kindness!) This personal touch really stood out.
