“Fantastic (and PRIVATE) stay! Could not recommend more.”

Nov 09, 2025Omar A

From A-Z, a brilliant stay. Had my honeymoon there in one of the ocean overwater villas. I'll start with the most important part for us: the complete privacy of the villas. The private swimming pool was truly private, which is perfect for those who wear hijab/niqab. Even the ocean directly in front our villa was basically private (although not private enough to disregard hijab). Now the rest of the stay: Our flight was slightly delayed, making us miss our seaplane transfer and have to wait til the next day in Male - but thanks to the airport liaison Tareq, we were driven to a five star hotel for the night and all the arrangements for our seaplane flight the next day were taken care of. Special shout-out to Shamaau, who received us at the island and made sure we had everything we needed, giving us updates on the daily activities taking place. The rest was a dream, beautiful scenery, beautifully friendly staff and locals, and great resort service. We truly had the experience of a lifetime.

“Great place on Maldives🔥🔥🔥”

Nov 07, 2025brazhnikalex

I loved the place a lot!!! Been to Maldives 14 times, The Standard is on my top-3 list🔥 beautiful island, good home reef with quite a plenty of fish, lovely food and great staff. Special thanks to Eva - my angel of hospitality🙏🙏🙏 Will be happy to come back again with friends and family🙏🔥❤️ couple minor things for potential improvement - wifi in water villas is not quite stable and gym equipment could be also modernized.

“Awesome stay in a beautiful part of the world”

Nov 04, 2025Redhowe

My family had an awesome stay at The Standard, Maldives, this (late) October. On arrival we were greeted by Eva who asssited us with everything throughout our time at the resort - Eva is super-friendly, helpful and constantly available (via WhatsApp which works really well for me as I'm not a fan of phone calls). The resort is on a beautiful, small, island which can be walked around in about 12-15 minutes and there is also a lagoon area with a looped, raised, wooden deck which leads to the lagoon villas which are over the water. We stayed in a family lagoon villa and thoroughly enjoyed our terrace - with a pool - as well as two super-comfortable rooms, both with a huge bathroom with a round bath, glass floors and a disco ball :-). From the terrace, and the pool, we could watch the fish in the water which often included large rays and blacktip reef sharks - seeing all the wonderful water life was a real highlight for the kids who love being around nature. Our stay included breakfast which was great - lots of options, many of which change each day, and many staff available to get teas, coffees or special requests. All the restaurant staff were friendly and helpful even when we overstayed the end of breakfast by up to 50 minutes (sorry staff but we weren't the only ones!) We typically ate a la carte at lunch and dinner and often room service as not every member of my family would want to eat three meals a day. Room service was good and well priced and the Guduguda restaurant had a number of different themed nights of which the BBQ and the Maldivian menus were our favourites. We went on a couple of trips during our stay - a fairly successful fishing trip where the fish we kept catching were so big that our line would break - I appreciate the line strength is chosen to stop kids being pulled over board by the bigger fish. We did catch a grouper and a white trevally though. The dolphin trip we joined was massively successful with so many dolphins, including baby dolphins, seen for over an hour. My family would definitely recommend The Standard for a family holiday as we all had a wonderful time. Thank you all at The Standard for your hard work!
