A Truly Memorable Stay at Kanifushi

Jul 25, 2025 Toristravels Sydney, Australia

We absolutely loved our holiday at Kanifushi! The resort is stunning – from the lush surroundings to the beautifully maintained facilities, everything was picture-perfect. One of the biggest highlights for us was the convenience of the all-inclusive offering, which made the experience feel effortless and relaxing from start to finish. The quality of service was truly outstanding. Every member of the team was friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was seamless. A special shoutout to Hamsi, our dedicated host, who was nothing short of amazing – warm, professional, and always ready to help with a smile. The food was another standout. The buffet was excellent, offering a wide variety of fresh, delicious options that changed daily – a real treat for food lovers. The only small downside was the snorkelling – the resort doesn’t have direct access to a barrier reef, so if you’re keen to explore underwater life, you’ll need to book an excursion. That said, the experiences available off-resort are still worthwhile. Having bikes available to ride around the island was a lovely bonus and made it even easier to soak in the beauty of the place. Overall, Kanifushi exceeded our expectations in every way. We’re already dreaming of coming back! Read less

A birthday and anniversary trip well celebrated!

Jul 25, 2025 shufen23 Singapore, Singapore

It was our first time in the Maldives and our stay at Atmosphere Kanifushi made our holiday truly memorable! The staff were extremely friendly, courteous and helpful. We took the premium Kanifushi plan and it was such a treat to have all the activities and food and dining included. A special shout-out to the team at the Oceanix Dive Center, especially Raul, Abul and Saiful, who took good care of us during our snorkelling trips. Our shark snorkelling adventure was surely the highlight! Special thanks also to our Guest Relations Officer, Azuhan, who helped organise all our activities, patiently replied to all our queries and made sure we had a good time. We also want to shout-out to our room attendant, Akash, who took such great care of our room, making sure we slept comfortably every night, putting up special anniversary and birthday decorations! We had such a lovely time at Atmosphere Kanifushi! Thank you! Read less

A incident was both shocking and disappointing, how team of the restaurant spice was addressed.

Jul 24, 2025 Ablealexi Toronto, Canada

Dear Team Kanifushi, I’m writing this on behalf of my parents, who recently had the privilege of staying at Kanifushi—a gift I was blessed to give them with our hard-earned money. They were treated very well overall by the management and staff, and for that, I’m truly grateful. At the restaurant Spice, where they had dined, they expressed their high regard for the cuisine and the dedicated staff. However, they were also confronted with an unsettling and disheartening situation. In a distressing incident, Big Manager Mr. Dipuk, of the restaurant, engaged in verbal abuse of the Spice team in the presence of guests, including my elderly parents. This incident was both shocking and disappointing, as hospitality is rooted in respect, and no team member deserves such treatment, particularly in the presence of guests. This behavior tarnished an otherwise enjoyable experience for them. Read less

My sister and I visited the Island mid July 2025 for a week. And wow, the service here is truly amazing. You get assigned a Guest Relations Officer. Basically a person that helps you with everything. From booking dinners to removing geckos from your room at night :) Our GRO was Ayyan. Ayaan was amazing. He could make anything possible! He always responds and makes our requests possible. Thank you Ayaan! As I said, service here is amazing! Every worker here does their job to the maximum and genuinely. We stayed in the Sunset Beach Villa for 6 nights, and Water Villa for 1 night. Sunset villa - has a hammock, you have ur own “part” of beach and beach beds, beautiful jacuzzi/bath. The bathroom is partially outside but is fully private. Sometimes, you spot a couple geckos but they keep away mosquitoes. Although, we still kept getting bitten by bugs/mosquitos, even with a net around bed and anti-bug spray. Water villas - more sun. More of a room for couples. There are two types, with and without a pool. You can see fishes and swim with them in the ocean out of your water villa. Didn’t see any bugs and geckos there, although we stayed only for 1 night 🤷‍♂️ A lot of free fun activities. Snorkeling, rope fishing, cruising, visiting local islands, football, tennis and table tennis, arcade games, billiard, etc. There are also chargeable activities. We tried shark and manta snorkeling. It was really cool, and even better when the group consists of you and one other person, more privacy. You get to see a lot of different sea creatures! They film you on GoPro, and you can get the videos after. We paid 445 USD for 2 activities and bicycle rental for 2 people. The resort has 2 public pools. One in Sunset Bar, for adults and is smaller. One in Liquid Bar, is bigger and kids are allowed. You get to eat small snacks and get a variety of drinks. A lot of different restaurants, each with their own theme. Overall, everyone eats at Spice Restaurant. It’s the buffet. Has a variety of food that change daily. You can also get a steak, grilled seafood, pasta cooked for you. The drink choice is pretty much the same in every restaurant. You can also eat at Sunset Bar, which has a really cool design and sand on the floor. You get to choose your meals from the board that changes daily. The resort provides you with 2 complimentary dinners. One at PierSix and one at Sunset Bar. You also can book dinners at other restaurants. Some are free and some you’ll have to pay additionaly There are shuttle cars that drive around. They’re very convenient at times when you don’t want to walk or it’s raining. You can rent a bicycle for $1 a day, which is what we mostly used. Had to get at least some exercise with all that food 😁 It was pretty cloudy and rainy during our stay. Sometimes rain lasted for 30 seconds, and sometimes for a couple hours. Not sure, but I heard that summers are more rainy here. I guess it’s better to come during winter. The weather doesn’t limit you though, you can still swim, which is the main activity here lol. Advice: - bring a gopro - bring an anti bug spray - bring an spf - get the bicycles on the first day - participate in different activities Read less
