    We had 8 nights at the O beach villa on all inclusive plus for our honeymoon and we had a great time. We chose the Maldives because of the snorkelling & diving and it did not disappoint. The house reef and the lagoon at Kuredu are brilliant; with a huge range of sea life to spot something different every time. We also did multiple trips with pro divers and they were really good. The O Buffett area is really nice and had a great variety of vegetarian options for my partner as well as vegan and gluten free. We also tried the sangu for one evening and one lunch time meal but we actually preferred the O area as the food was similar and it’s more open and you can watch the baby sharks in the lit up area whilst you eat. As part of the AIP almost everything in the mini bar was free including wine and beer which was nice. On arrival we had a cake and decorations to celebrate our honeymoon which was a nice touch. The only thing I disliked was the complicated all inclusive system, having 5 different coloured bands and certain areas only available to certain people is confusing and I didn’t feel it was necessary. The service is brilliant and the staff can’t do enough for you and it’s a beautiful place. The entertainment was generally pretty good, our favourite was the band Equatic Vibe, got everyone up dancing and they take as many requests as they can to keep a good atmosphere. We walked pretty much everywhere but they do have buggies to drive guests around who might struggle as the island is bigger than you might imagine. The free sunset cruise which you get as part of the all inclusive was really nice, and we were lucky enough to see loads of dolphins swimming alongside the boat. Read less

    We had the most wonderful experience on Kuredu Island. The Island itself is stunning. The service by the staff we encountered was incredible. They were so warm and welcoming. We were greeted by Qurat who provided details of everything we'd need to know while on the Island and as a point of contact for any queries. We stayed in a beach hut, perfect for our stay for 2 weeks, where we were looked after really well by Muthu. We ate all our meals at the Bonthi restaurant as we felt no need to go anywhere else. The staff there were amazing and we miss them all dearly. A huge shout out to the manager Saeed, Head Chefs Prabin and Robin, and Hardeep and Kamal. We were treated to some extra special dishes on our final evening which was completely unexpected and so touching. The vegetarian main options were super delicious and there was always an abundance of choice. The pastries and desserts were divine, and simply irresistible. Seeni, Morghan, Kumar and Manoj served us daily with a smile and the best omlettes, pancakes, waffles, pasta, dosa, noodles ...and so much more The service when we were at the restaurant was spot on and again always met with a smile. Rajan looked after us daily with his lovely colleagues stepping in where needed - Sapurna, Karuna, Mounika, Ananth, Arindam and last but not least Burhan. Our daughters enjoyed the snorkeling and dolphin tours led by the wonderful Ahmed. They were successful in seeing dolphins, manta rays, turtles, amongst a stunning array of fish. We loved the massages , I particularly enjoyed the reflexology by Nita and massage by Prasa. My daughters also enjoyed their first ever massages with 2 lovely ladies. This holiday was booked because we wanted to treat ourselves on reaching our milestone birthdays. We could not have chosen a better location. The staff made it an even better and unforgettable holiday embracing us with love, care and warmth. Thank you all - from the bottom of our hearts. Read less
