Mandara Spa at Cinnamon Hakuraa Huraa is an absolute sanctuary of calm and professionalism. From the moment you step inside, everything—from the atmosphere to the attention to detail—makes you feel completely at ease. A very special mention goes to Dian and Opina, whose level of professionalism and true mastery of massage is exceptional. Their technique is confident, precise, and deeply effective: you can immediately feel that you’re in the hands of highly trained therapists who genuinely understand the body. The balance between pressure, flow, and relaxation was perfect, and the results lasted well beyond the session. This was not just a relaxing experience, but a truly restorative one. If you’re staying at Cinnamon Hakuraa Huraa, Mandara Spa is a must—and if you can, book with Dian or Opina. They elevate the experience from excellent to unforgettable. Highly recommended. Read less

A wonderful hotel with excellent cuisine, overseen by Chef Kasun. Beautiful underwater creatures. A very good spa with a wonderful atmosphere. Fun games available for guests (darts, billiards, chess, tennis, table football, ping-pong, and Babington). A great all-inclusive option. Very nice excursions. Rooms are thoroughly cleaned daily (thank you, Hussain). However, I recommend taking a hydrofoil to the island; I can't imagine transporting by boat.Perfect holiday in houses on the water sunset Read less
