    I don't often post reviews, but have to say something about this outstanding resort. We are just back from two incredible weeks at Adaaran Select Meedhupparu. How do you begin to sum it up? The staff, service, food and drink, the island's pristine beaches and crystal-clear waters, snorkelling on the house reef, the excursions, the spa…. everything was first class! First, I must praise the amazing chefs and front-of-house restaurant staff. We were nervous about how the resort would cater for my wife’s dietary needs (coeliac disease) as the main restaurants are buffets. But we needn’t have worried - my wife received special attention from the moment we arrived with the chefs, hosts and servers going out of their way to cater for her needs (preparing individual dishes on numerous occasions). Thanks to Asmita and Preeti, and a very special thank you to Apoorva, who took great care to check and advise on gluten free dishes when we first arrived and made us feel most welcome. Also, a big thank you to chefs Lakshman (at Sufura Indian restaurant) and Gayan (at the main Jafraaiy restaurant) who greeted us so warmly at each meal and went the extra mile in catering for our needs. The quality of the food was exceptional throughout our stay at each of the restaurants. We particularly enjoyed the varied Indian cuisines offered at Sufura. Adaaran, please pass on our thanks to the team - they put us at ease and ensured that our family had a very special stay in Meedhupparu. Thank you! We enjoyed trying all of the different bars and were impressed by the range of drinks on offer. We particularly enjoyed the setting and atmosphere of the sunset bar - Rumesh and Pethum are great fun and make the best cocktails! Also, a shout out to the guys at Café Mass who work tirelessly. The island is meticulously maintained by a large team of staff, who clearly take great pride in their work. We found every member of staff (maintenance, housekeeping, grounds staff, security etc.) to be well-engaged, professional and courteous. Special thanks to our housekeeper (235/236) who kept our beach villa looking spotless! The included excursions (dolphin and sunset cruises) were both excellent - we were fortunate enough to see loads of dolphins and to get a special sunset! Extra excursions are expensive but we’d highly recommend a trip out to see the manta rays. Thanks to Waheed from the watersports centre for our incredible speed boat trip to snorkel first with hawksbill turtles and then with manta rays. A truly unforgettable trip! We visited Mandara spa twice (for massage and facial) and left feeling totally relaxed and revitalised on both occasions. Thanks to our therapists, Laras and Vivin! It's a long journey to get to Meedhupparu from the UK, but well worth it! It took us around 20hrs door to door (flying from Birmingham via Istanbul) including layovers and a 45-minute sea plane transfer on the way out (thanks Adaaran for the free upgrade to sea plane transfer!) and just over 24hrs on the return leg (with speedboat and domestic flight transfer from resort to Male). We'd suggest going for a fortnight. We found there was more than enough to amuse us and our teenage daughters for a couple of weeks. We really hope to return to beautiful Meedhupparu some day soon!
