Beautiful stunning island and wonderful staff. Food very nice and good choice. This is not a cheap vacation by any stretch of the imagination. Room 402 garden villa is amazing and we are 5 nights of a 10 night holiday. The all inclusive is so disappointing and also very frustrating. We paid a fortune to get this holiday, but have to pay for our orange juice, mojito, margarita and other normal drinks. I cannot have a margarita but can tequila which is so annoying that I have to pay. I can have 10 year Torres brandy which I like, but they don't have any only nepolion brandy. Now they advertise white night on the beach tonight for 2 hours and they supply cocktails but you have to pay $20 per person (why) We don't mind paying $200 per couple for fish restaurant as it's crab, but we do mind having to pay for wine, we are all inclusive and now pay for wine on top of the meal. Lovely island food and staff but can't help feeling let down in the above when there is really no need. Read less

“An absolutely wonderful experience! The resort made our trip seamless right from the start with smooth and well-organized air transfers, that fresh breeze in sky and the amazing view. The snorkeling was incredible — crystal-clear waters, vibrant marine life the small fishes, sting rays and all were so good to watch, and guided tours that made it even more enjoyable. The food was simply delicious, with a variety of fresh and flavorful dishes that catered to all tastes, I still have those memories when i had such amazing dinner with my wife. But the real highlight was the staff — warm, attentive, specially Ms. Srijanaa and Ms.Wilma always ready to go the extra mile to make our stay perfect. They and other staff was amazing don't remember all the names but Mr.Ushan, Mr. Riyaz from housekeeping, Ms. Maiha at snorkeling and many more were so helpful and well mannered.We can’t wait to come back!” Read less

Pictures speak for themselves about how the island is a natural tropical paradise but they will not give you the taste of the lobster served at the Crab, the island premium restaurant, served on the beach with the excellent service of Sandum.
