“Paradise exists”

Feb 05, 2026JulieAMC70

This was our second time visiting Reethi Faru, which in itself tells you how highly we rate it. From the staff to the reef, it’s sublime. Snorkelling is a delight, and you’ll see eagle rays, sting rays, turtles, sharks of all ages, octopus, parrotfish, angel fish…..the list is endless. It’s also the only island we’ve visited where you can fully circumnavigate the whole island whilst walking in the water. The reef can be as little as 10 feet from shore, to 50 feet. So it’s perfect - you get excellent lagoon access, and amazing snorkelling experiences. We love the variety of food served in Vakura, and I always tried the Maldivian cuisine. Staff are so friendly and helpful - shout out to Anish in Vakura. We’ve stayed in an overwater villa both times, and actually prefer the sunrise side, as we got the sun pretty much all day. Our 1 piece of slightly negative feedback relates to the gym. The equipment is old and dated, particularly the cardio equipment. It wouldn’t cost much to invest in a few new machines, and add more weight training equipment. More and more people are focusing on their fitness, and every day we were there, it was busy, so perhaps it’s time to refresh the gym. Other than that, we love the place and will definitely return.

“Our Best Vocation”

Jan 21, 2026ekaterina m

It was our first visit to Maldives and we very happy that we were on Reethi Faru Resort. The island is very beautiful and green. The nature and underwater world are magical. We saw dolphins, turtles, sharks, rays right from the shore, and the snorkeling on the house reef is very impressive, with a huge number of colorful fish. Our favorite restaurant was Diavaru. The food was delicious and the service was fantastic. Your pre-meal buns were simply divine. We stayed in a villa with a pool overlooking the sunset, room 416. The only thing that spoiled the view a bit were the sandbags. Otherwise, the vacation was fantastic; it's the most beautiful place we've ever been.

“Beautiful island and great team, but some key improvements are needed”

Jan 19, 2026Otabek K

This was my 4th stay at the resort, and overall we still truly enjoy the island, the atmosphere, and the friendliness of the staff. It’s a wonderful place to relax, which is why we keep coming back. That said, after visiting multiple times, I feel a few important issues have still not been improved, and they do affect the comfort of the stay: 1. Internet quality remains very weak. During peak hours the speed drops to around 500 KB/s, and the maximum I’ve seen is about 5 Mbps. As a business traveler, I often need stable internet for video calls and work, and unfortunately mobile signal inside the villa is also weak (no reliable LTE), so this becomes inconvenient. 2. The villas would benefit from renovation. Some areas look worn and a refresh would help the rooms match the overall level of the resort. 3. Medical support could be improved. When I needed a basic medication for digestive issues, it wasn’t available, and the alternative offered felt overpriced (around $7 for something simple). Other than these points, we have no major complaints. If the resort improves the internet, renovates the villas, and also manages villa requests better (we requested our preferred villa 4 months in advance), then we would happily consider returning for a 5th visit and will continue recommending the resort to friends.
