We celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary at Emerald Faru, and these days have become an unforgettable memory for our whole family. Thanks to Apekcha and the resort team, our romantic anniversary setup, delicious floating breakfast and surprise excursion to spot sea turtles and manta rays were perfectly arranged. My wife and daughter had an amazing time.
Boasting pristine turquoise waters, this island is a true paradise for vacation. I will highly recommend Emerald Faru to all my friends. The stunning emerald scenery is etched in our hearts forever, and we sincerely hope to come back and reunite with you all again someday.

Every member of the team make you feel welcome and special. Thanks to Patrick who always makes time for a chat. Rao, who is the most genuine and friendly person I have ever had the pleasure to meet. Joseph, the best head Sommelier around.
Amy, Cassun, Ram, Sean, Neema, Igaa, all deserve a special mention. Thanks to all of you, you will always feel like family to us. I do not mean to miss anyone out as every single member of the team are amazing.
I cannot recommend Emerald Faarufushi highly enough, it is and always will be our very special place, we cannot wait to return
