It was a great trip and I definitely want to come back again. In particular, being able to see manta rays and turtles up close during the activities was a great memory. The food was also very tasty and suited us Japanese people.

We’ve just finished a fantastic stay at OZEN Life Maadhoo, and it’s been one of the most enjoyable and well-run holidays we’ve had. A particular highlight for us was the morning yoga with Nandan and Romesha. Starting each day with their sessions made a real difference – thoughtful, well-paced and surprisingly effective. We’re heading home noticeably more flexible, and I now have Nandan’s challenge of working up to 200 sun salutations. That may take some time. We also loved the daily snorkelling boat trips. They were well organised and relaxed, with plenty to see each morning. Typically, the sharks and manta ray showed up just as we were packing to leave – which gives us the perfect excuse to return. Our dives with Taka were excellent. She is calm, competent and reassuring, and made every dive feel safe and enjoyable. Exactly the type of guide you want in the water. Our dinner at M6m was another standout, made especially memorable thanks to Beverley’s enthusiasm and attention to detail. The cocktails, wines and champagne across all restaurants – and at the Joie de Vivre bar – were consistently top quality. The bar team were happy to mix from the menu or help create new combinations, which we enjoyed far too much. One thing we noticed throughout our stay is how staff refer to each other as “colleague”. It’s a small detail, but it says a lot about the culture of the place. You get the sense that leadership (under Vipin) puts real emphasis on teamwork and consistency. Every interaction we had felt genuinely friendly, professional and focused on making our stay the best it could be. We are already thinking about coming back next year. The only thing I’ll do differently is brush up on my dinghy sailing so I can finally make use of the catamarans. A big thank you to everyone at OZEN for a wonderful stay. Read less
