⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Truly Memorable Family Getaway We had such a fantastic time at this resort! The entire property was beautifully maintained. The staff were incredibly friendly and always went out of their way to help, their genuine warmth made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. Our kids had an amazing time too there were plenty of activities to keep them entertained. One of the highlights of our trip was definitely the marine life around the island. There was so much to see just by snorkeling near the water villas, snorkeling equipment were already kept in the villa making it easier to jump right in. Overall, this resort was the perfect mix of relaxation and fun for the whole family. We’d love to come back again someday! Read less

Sherry, my lovely Chinese housekeeper, God knows how much I miss her after leaving the island. She will always be my friend, and the service is very good. Every day on the island, I always feel happy because of her. I will always miss my housekeeper friend and this beautiful island.

The dive center team was also incredibly friendly and professional. During our program at Huruvalhi, we had the amazing chance to see nurse sharks and manta rays 🦈✨ – it was one of the highlights of our trip. The whole experience was very well organized and made us feel safe and excited at the same time. Thank you to the entire team for giving us such beautiful memories. We would definitely love to come back again! 💙 Read less

Our stay at The Standard Huruvalhi Maldives was truly unforgettable, booked via JTR Holidays. From arrival to departure, the entire experience was completely hassle-free. The Lagoon Overwater Villa was incredible, beautifully designed with all the amenities you could wish for, including a private pool and even swimming kits. The dining experience at Kula, the main buffet restaurant, was excellent. The variety of dishes was impressive, and the best part is that they keep changing a few items at each lunch and dinner, which keeps every meal exciting and fresh, simply awesome! The beach area right in front of Kula, with its pristine white sand and the main swimming pool, made it even more special. The resort also offers plenty of indoor activities like snooker, table tennis, and carrom board, as well as music and entertainment programs that vary each day, adding something new to look forward to. The staff were warm, welcoming, and always ready to assist, ensuring we felt at home throughout our stay. A special mention goes to Mr. Shamaau, whose exceptional service and attentiveness made our experience even better. The only suggestion I would make is for the resort to provide some guidance on sunburn prevention for guests with sensitive skin, such as when to avoid direct sun exposure and what to apply. Apart from that, everything was absolutely perfect. We would definitely recommend The Standard Huruvalhi Maldives to anyone seeking a perfect Maldivian escape, and we extend a big thanks to JTR Holidays for making this experience possible! Read less
