Fantastic resort with a stunning house reef. We had the most amazing, they really cater for everyone’s taste. Bandos also went out their way to return our camera we left behind, just in time before we boarded our plane. Thank you so much Bandos, we had an unforgettable time. 🤗

Scubamooners, United States of America

just 10 minutes boat trip from Male airport, hospitality, staff attentiveness, especially of our room cleaner Mohamed, location of and view from our Jacuzzi beach villa, nice beach in front of our villa, white sand, sea water was warm (28 degrees C) and clean, great underwater world (different fishes, turtles, sharks, sting-grey etc.), good food, good gym, welcome bottle of a wine and fruit platter for the not-first-time comers, invitation for parties, nice weather, no humidity, relaxation. Associate Dana was very helpful with our requests.

Oleg, Georgia

A big mistake. Reviews can be deceiving. We picked it because of the many good reviews but turned out to be a very average resort if you are looking for only a resort on the beach. There are many better resorts that you far much better. The beach and the water around the island is not what you would expect being in the Maldives. Overall, I would never come again here unless I have to

Khaled, Saudi Arabia

All vacation was amazing. Here all are enjoyable, personnel very friendly.

Marin, Romania

Nice location and very good/ friendly staff. I stayed in Jacuzzi beach villa and it was very nice experience. You can swim anytime in the beach. There is many sports that you can do there. The buffet was very nice in term of diversity, the staff and restaurant decor
