This is a bare foot, laid back island perfect for just chilling out.
Plenty of sun beds spread around the Atoll so never a problem finding one!.
The sea is warm, clear & full of so many different fish that just swim around putting on a show for you!.

There is a spa for all kinds of beauty treatments. A library if you want to read. Canoes or water boards to hire.
We were lucky enough to stay in a Water Bungalow, with a four poster bed, jacuzzi bath and shower. A glass boʻttom floor in the sitting area where you could watch the fish and a decking area with cozy sunbed and armchairs.
We also stayed in a beach bungalow that literally stepped out to the beach, with sun loungers and umbrellas. The superior bungalow had a big bed, a walk in shower and was big and spacious with ample wardrobe space.
The Restaurant was excellent with different foods from all over the world that the chefs stood and cooked main dishes infront of you. From breakfast, lunch to dinner there was a wide variety everyday!
This is where we want to personally thank Kamal Dangriyal for making our holiday that extra special! He pulled my chair out evertine I arrived! He advised us on what foods to try, poured our drinks. Gave us tips on everything we needed to know or ask regarding our stay. Nothing was a problem and he genuinely made us feel at home and looked after. He was kind, friendly and professional in his job. He is a big asset to Embudu Village.
The bar staff were also amazing and always happy to see or help you.
Will definitely be going back to this beautiful island.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Embudu Village and were so impressed by the natural beauty and wildlife of the island. There was always something new to discover everyday and we really felt it was our own slice of heaven. The staff were very kind and accommodating - special shoutout in particular to Rajli who always remembered our drink orders and Marco, our diving instructor, who made the experience totally unforgettable. Also a massive thank you to the gentlemen who spent their afternoon breaks playing badminton with us and their well-deserved win! The food was tasty, diverse, and varied throughout the week, and our room was kept clean and comfortable. The range of activities was perfect for a week-long stay - we hadn't planned on doing the introductory diving course but would 1000% recommend for anyone on the fence.

Especially our waiter Hussain is very polite, attentive, friendly and courteous. He always keeps an eye on his guests and immediately sees when something is wanted or missing. He asks for what we want without being asked and delivers it immediately. He is always in a good mood and inquires politly and unobtrusively about our well being. He looked after us really well during the 14 days. We were extremly satisfied. Thank you very much!
