Very disappointed to the hotel management service as there’s totally no reply when I sent a message to them. How to rely on them if I really book their accommodation!

We were very satisfied. It is a great, lovingly designed and clean facility. Everything is cleaned every day, and the rooms were always in tip top condition. We had a beach bungalow, the sea was right in front of our room. It was a dream. In the bathroom we had a huge, great shower. In the room we had air conditioning and a minibar, some drinks were free. There are plenty of loungers to choose from and free towels. The surroundings are really fascinating, the palm trees, the turquoise sea, the sandy beach. The sea is ideal for snorkeling, there are a variety of fish and other animals on site. Jet skiing and other activities, such as sightseeing in the city of Male, are offered on site. The restaurant was great. The design and selection of dishes was rich and varied, with something for everyone. The employees were super friendly, you could tell they enjoyed their work. For all inclusive there is a lot of choice of cocktails, alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. The only suggestions for improvement are to point out on the website in advance that no damaged dollar bills will be accepted, not even if there is a minimal tear, or point this out when you arrive. What we didn't like at all is the "crab race", the crabs are collected and sit in a large box with water and food, but they were visibly stressed and wanted to get out. You could bet on a crab and in the evening after the race they were released again. For us, this is a questionable conversation, especially when “species protection” is very important in the Maldives. Overall, it was an unforgettable and wonderful vacation on a great island for us. 👍👍
