We stayed at Eri Maldives this December, right after the renovation works, and it was simply fantastic.
The island can be reached by the resort’s speedboat, which was always perfectly on time both on arrival from the airport and on departure, making the transfer smooth and stress-free.
The resort is truly a hidden gem and offers many facilities to enjoy during the stay, such as a restaurant, two bars (one overlooking the pool and the other directly on the beach), a gym, a diving centre, and much more.
The infinity pool overlooking the ocean is beautiful and extremely well maintained. The restaurant is buffet-style and the food is absolutely excellent, with a wide variety of dishes ranging from appetizers to desserts, all of very high quality.
A special thank you goes to Chef Ganesh, who always took the time to chat with us, sharing stories about Maldivian culture and cuisine. We also joined a cooking class with him, where we learned how to make delicious cookies. I can honestly say that I had some of the best meals of my life at this buffet!
Thanks also to our waiters, Noor and Ali, who pampered us throughout the entire vacation and helped us learn even more about their culture.
The island is small and can be easily explored on foot — and even by swimming! This made it perfect. I spent the entire week walking barefoot, which was an amazing and freeing feeling.
The rooms are stunning, with ocean views and equipped with every possible comfort. A special thank you also to Sagor, who cleaned our room twice a day and always shared a laugh and a friendly conversation with us.
The island is located on a coral reef that is incredibly rich in marine life. Without taking any excursions, it is possible to see turtles, small sharks, starfish, and many different species of fish.
There is also a diving centre offering amazing excursions. Thanks to Lisa for guiding me through my first diving experience, and thanks to the entire team who took us to see manta rays — it was the best experience of my life.
The resort also offers several activities, and we would like to thank Ali for taking us on an adventure to a sandbank in the middle of the ocean — a truly magical moment.
There is also a spa and massage centre on the island, where the massages are incredible. Thank you to all the girls at the spa, and especially to Muthia, who truly stayed in our hearts.
A special thank you also goes to Julie, who accompanied and supported us throughout our entire week, making our stay even more enjoyable and perfectly organized.
We sincerely thank the entire staff for giving us such a wonderful experience. Everyone was incredibly kind, attentive, and caring.
Highly recommended island! 🌴✨
