My Mom and I spent a wonderful 7 days in Ozen Maadhoo Island to celebrate her birthday. We felt very welcome and caring during our stay thanks to our butler - Maftuna. She made sure that everything works smoothly, which made our stay very pleasant and relaxing. The island is conveniently located only 45 minutes by a high speed boat from the aiport. We stayed at the villas over water with the pool. The villa was really nice, with the beautiful sunset view. The infinity pool at the villa was a great addition. The food was amazing - very good variety from different cuisines. Our favorite restaurant was the underwater one - with beautiful views of the ocean world and a great seafood! The island is very well kept. There are a lot of water activities, our favorite was the snorkeling. We also enjoyed the spa and yoga. The staff on the island is very nice and kind. We went during the rain season, so some of the planned activities couldn't take place due to weather. Overall, we both recommend Ozen Maadhoo Island if you are looking at a peaceful, relaxing time to rejuvenate. Read less

Such a beautiful island with an amazing team who have made us so welcome and have gone so far above and beyond for us to make sure our stay has been a once in a lifetime experience! From the beautiful water bungalow , private dinner on the beach, fishing trip, in villa dinner, dolphin trip (saw so many so close), shark turtle and manta rays snorkelling trip where we swam amongst the sharks & turtles, great diving school and chefs and restaurant team who went to such great lengths to make sure our stay was perfect. The resort manager and executive chef were regularly checking in with us to make sure we had everything we wanted and nothing was too much trouble. Our butler in the resort Anu couldn’t do enough for us and helped to make everything happen perfectly. The whole team was absolutely fabulous and I would recommend this resort 100%! You will not be disappointed - a once in a lifetime opportunity to visit the beautiful island and all it has to offer and the lovely people who make up the fabulous team here. Thank you to everyone who has made this an amazing 10 days - we are very grateful 🙏. If you are planning a trip to the Maldives seriously consider this resort- you will have an amazing time 😃 Read less
