“Great place for a relaxing holiday”

Dec 30, 2025Spencer C

Relaxing holiday. Really enjoyable. Impressive food selection. Friendly staff and excellent dive centre. Definitely recommend it

“If only every Holiday Inn was this brilliant”

Dec 30, 2025Robert C

Although our room was the most basic on offer, it was vast, with a large outdoor seating area and hammock. The room was well laid out with space for an extra bed for our son and an outdoor shower. This was our second visit to Kandooma, but even with the passing of a year the staff remembered us and welcomed us back like old friends, they could not have been kinder, more polite or more helpful, every last member of staff was brilliant. The whole operation is slick and efficient and the addition of the new app means that you don’t miss a promotion or event (if that is your inclination) there is plenty going on for adults and children alike, but the best feature by far is the diving. The dive centre is warm, friendly and well equipped, staffed by knowledgeable, helpful and understanding instructors and the two free dives a day offer is a steal. The site is spotlessly clean and the beach areas well catered for with sun beds etc (although rather too often beds are left with towels on them, but never used) The buffet food is excellent, as are the à la carte restaurants, providing a geriatric of foods to cater for all tastes and with themed nights dotted throughout the week. For the price and location I could not recommend Kandooma highly enough, and if you are wanting to head to the Maldives to dive, look no further.

“Brilliant”

Great place. We have had a fab time. Glad we came back a second year. They are all so friendly and are willing to help you with any queries and questions. The food and service is great. Dive centre is amazing. Big shout out to all the staff and crew.
