Snorkelling alone makes this a 4 star island worth a visit.

May 20, 2025 674nathant York, United Kingdom

4/5 rating reflects the fact that this is a 4 star resort and not quite at the 5 star level. I want to keep any negatives in perspective: There are a lot of things going on in the world far more important than any minor flaws or short comings in a holiday resort that is effectively paradise! We have just returned from 11 days of relaxing on white sand beaches, swimming in warm sea water and the seeing the most incredible sea life I have ever seen whilst snorkelling direct from the beach. The rooms we stayed in were both wonderful and every single member of staff we came in to contact with were helpful, friendly and all were working towards making the experience what it was. So - negatives….. pricing/what was included structure seemed complicated and needed thinking about more than at other places we have visited….You have a ‘home’ buffet restaurant you can use any time - you can use the others but have to book and only on a set number of occasions during your stay. Mini bar was all included, apart from the Redbull, Wine (at bars and in the room) was all included but not sparkling. There is a definite difference between the two sides of the island in terms of accommodation, views and experience in the water. We chose the island based on the reviews of the beach snorkelling experiences and were not ultimately disappointed - but these are very much on one side of the island. You could easily have walked to this from our villa and for the first few days we did - but things like sun beds and shades are outside of each villa and allocated just to that villa meaning we couldn’t come out of the sea and take a break with out returning to our own villa again. We asked if we could upgrade and fortunately we could - the cost was reasonable and definitely worth it! The accommodation was a step up, the view got even better - pure white sand instead of beach grasses and uninterrupted blue sea instead of the concrete break water. We had planned to do at least one scuba dive. This is something we have done before but are not qualified in so knew it would need to be fully accompanied dives. We knew there was an in resort offering so didn’t investigate this in too much detail which was our own fault. They only offered diving excursions after you had done their own ‘introduction to diving’ session, which of course came at an additional cost. There was no movement on this so we didn’t do any scuba dives . In the end I don’t think we really missed out though but this is something you should be aware of if you plan on doing any dives. The best bit - positives. Our second room - an O beach Jacuzzi Villa was something else. We had everything: beautiful accommodation, a picture perfect view from our veranda, sun beds in full sun or shade at any point of the day, wild life in the shape of lizards, crabs, birds and sea life to numerous to count. The snorkelling was the best. We spent hours in the water every day. We swam with turtles on every trip and we saw combinations of sharks, rays and fish of all colours and sizes each time as well. The food is really good - lots of options at every meal. Our main location was O Resort which is a lot more open, cooler and better views than Sangu….although the tandoori oven at Sangu is worth a visit to this restaurant at least once on your visit. 5.8 was a very, very special experience and worth every penny. The food and drinks pairing along with the service were exceptional on their own but when you add in the setting - it was like nothing else. I hadn’t been prepared for quite how beautiful this would be and the addition of music, creating a sound track to the ever changing scenery really finished it off perfectly. The Britt boat excursion was a really good day with 4 snorkelling stops along the way and a really good meal on board to boot. The staff work incredibly hard in every role and thanks to each and everyone of them - whether it was luggage porters, grounds and maintenance staff, house keeping, food & drinks preparation/service all of them contributed to making our holiday what it was so thank you to the entire team…special thanks to those we had the most contact with and whose names we got…..Infant in housekeeping who kept our room spotless (and presented beautifully for both our birthdays on the trip), Nathan in the kitchen who served some really good food from the ‘live’ counter. Nirmal, Vishal, Udaya our waiters and bar servers and Sajini our Island host who did lots or organising. Thank you to all of you for giving us an amazing holiday! Read less

Everything we dreamed of & more

May 20, 2025 Brodie S

Visited the Maldives for the first time and Kuredu did not disappoint. From the moment we got off the sea plane, we were greeted by Chatherine who was excellent, giving us a good overview of the island and also provided us with her contact number should we need anything throughout our stay. The island itself is phenomenal, as a younger couple we were slightly worried about having little to do but it was completely the opposite. There were excursions every day to choose from as well as the snorkelling on the house reef which we never got bored of! The team at Prodivers were also brilliant. We did a few trips including night snorkelling & komandoo trip, both of which were guided by Ali @ Prodivers. He was incredible and had so much knowledge on the wildlife and made my partner feel at ease in the water (not a strong swimmer). We’d also like to mention our amazing waiter, Manu @ Sangu Restaurant. Unbelievable at his job, couldn’t do enough for us and was so polite. We’ve never seen someone work so hard in our lives! A great guy and one of the main reasons we’ll be back! Finally another special mention to Jenny who drove the buggy. He also had a lot of knowledge and often gave us tips on things to do on the island. The only things we’d like to mention is the lack of signage to state “Do not touch the sealife”. We did notice the occasional sign to say this but they were not close enough to the beach. There were many people snorkelling and diving down to touch the turtles, someone even tried to grab hold of the shell whilst it was swimming. I think if there were signs around the beach people would be aware it’s not acceptable. Also, and not the fault of the staff at all, the amount of times we witnessed the staff being abused by a certain group of guests was not acceptable and it appears it’s become “the norm”. We had to correct a couple at Sangu on our last night after witnessing them abusing a member of the Sangu waiting team. Abuse should not be tolerated, regardless of nationality. Overall, Kuredu was everything we had dreamed of and more. We will most certainly be back in the not so distant future!!! Read less

Paradise Kuredu far away

May 19, 2025 Wolfgang K

A long and exciting journey from Germany to paradise... But when you finally land in the sea by seaplane, walk across the jetty towards the dream island, and are greeted so warmly by the musically playing staff, all the hardships are quickly forgotten! From the first to the last day, from the housekeeper Infant to the island manager Sarath, from the best and friendliest cooking chef in the O-Restaurant, the attentive service staff in the restaurant, the cool waiter Nirmal, the lovely buggy driver Manu, the ladies from the spa area, the experienced staff from the dive school (Ali, Costas, Lisa, Yasmina, ...) and all the many other lovely people throughout the island, who all contributed equally to our dream vacation, we had only the best experiences on Kuredu! Everyone was always trying their best, always super friendly, personable, and so helpful to us that truly small friendships developed. Every single corner of the island of Kuredu was very special in its own right. We stayed in an O-Jacuzzi Beach Villa in the south, which completely fulfilled all our wishes! Fantastic!! We had a beautiful stretch of beach with turquoise water, the house reef right on our doorstep, and arguably the best island host, who made our wonderful vacation a dream vacation, our dear Sajini!!! Thank you so much again for your always quick and professional help, dear Sajini! You are the best! Best wishes, Karola and Wolfgang Read less

Fantastic Island with lots of returners.

May 19, 2025 joanned858 Preston, United Kingdom

This was 2nd time visiting this beautiful island & it didn't dissapoint! The staff are all amazing, the island is totally relaxing, no shoes is good news! Food was fantastic, snorkeling, too was great seeing turtles, sharks * plenty of colourful fish. Beaches are clean, beautiful & white soft sand. We stayed in a beach bungalow which was great for the actual time we spent in there & we were well looked after by our cleaner. All in all this was a fantic 10 days & we will definitely go back a 3rd time😍 Read less

Good resort with a lot to do given its size. Stunning virews. Idle for honeymooners.

May 19, 2025 Jackie M

The mornings walking around the island and looking at the views . Quality of rooms and service a 10. Nothing too much trouble . The only thing that was rather ugly was the breakwaters to Keep the sea from flooding the island at various points and there were strong currents to be aware of. Never had that on the islands I’d stayed before. Also… Read more
