Romantic Hotels in North Male Atoll

Amazing vacation at an excellent resort. Everyone was kind and professional. We hope to return one day! Food was excellent!

It was better than we expected! All started even before the trip, in Booking messages where the staff asked more so they can prepare for us even better (our food limitations, date and time of arrival and departure, any preferences and requests, ...). When we arrived we were greeted by our lovely host Sony and she was our person to go to for any questions and requests. Each day you would get a message from her with the day's plan and program. The island is quite big and you can walk, see and use quite of facilities - few a la carte restaurants, beach bar, coffee shop, water sports, snorkeling point, gym, sauna and more. The food was really nice. We fell in love with the fresh fruits since e.g. that taste of pineapple you wont get anywhere (or other fruits). Quite of varierities in the food, while some were repeated but we loved it anyway so no problem for us. Regarding the fresh water you would get 1.5 litre of bottled water in every meal. We had full board so you can have at up to 4.5 litres of fresh water only from that. The rest was in our apartment where our lovely mister Pradeep filled every day during the apartment cleanup. We usually had 4 or 5 glass bottles (1 litre each) and this depends on your water consumption, but the thing is - it's included and not additionally charged. You can buy same bottled water you drink in the main restaurant but it is not really needed. I am writing about the water since I read quite of concerns in other resorts and islands. Back to mr Pradeep. Usually there are 2 cleanups in a day, but for us this was overkill so we decided with Pradeep to have only one. But he would clean your apartment twice if you ask him without any issues. Our request was mostly for clean towels, new fresh water and toiletries if needed. But you would get bed cleanup, floor in the apartment and outside along with the pool deck sweeping, along with other clothes folds if lying on bed.

Every area is clean. Friendly staff and good location. Many details are considered for a nice holiday. The place offers wonderful underwater life by snorkelling from directly entrance your villa.

Amazing hotel, with excellent food.

We totally enjoyed our stay. We were given an upgrade on arrival to the Water Bungalow for my friend's birthday, and we weren't disappointed. Their service was top-notch from arrival to departure. We must hail up Lashan and Zareer, who worked in the restaurant.

The "Tajness". The Taj remains Indias preferred hospitality option. Amazing staff and great food.

Location (close to Malé) Kind and professional staff Amazing corals & fishes Super food, drinks

It was a 10-15 minute boat ride from the airport and check in was seamless. We stayed in the over water villas which were modern and beautiful. The food was very good and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The grounds are beautiful. We loved Bandos.

We were met at the airport as expected. Boat waiting time for half an hour. The boat has collected passengers of two flights. The boat is comfortable, water was offered to us. The villa we stayed in was close to the AIR restaurant and the main outbuildings. There was slight noise from the generator and access to the beach was through a small staircase. After exploring the island, we realized that these two inconveniences, in fact, are the advantages of this villa. Elsewhere the generator noise was louder and some villas had no beach at all. Our beach was the beginning of a Home reef which attracted snorkelers. The villa is clean, not shabby, the pool and plumbing are in order. The cornice fell off, but due to the fact that I always carry a compact multi-tool with me, it was quickly repaired. There were mosquitoes, but we were armed with repellents. There was no clothesline for drying clothes, but we, as experienced travelers, brought our own. It will not be superfluous to take a flashlight with you. The Home reef is small - from AQUA to Water Villas - but we saw a lot. Of the rare ones - sharks, rays, turtles, moray eels, octopuses (even mating ones, which is very rare to see with your own eyes in the wild), clown fish, squid. We took half board - breakfast and dinner. We didn't want to waste our time on a lunch, which ended up preventing us from gaining extra pounds and more time for the beach and snorkelling. The choice of food in the AIR is not chic, but quite decent. The staff is friendly and understanding. Minor repairs were periodically carried out in neighboring villas between the visits of the guests. On the last day of our holiday, a table was prepared for us in the first row with flowers and a tablecloth. We didn't order and it was unexpectedly nice. The flight was early, but the restaurant prepared freshly baked croissants with juice. A small tip - check receipts.

We’ve stayed 6 nights in this beautiful island in the Sunset Ocean Villa (villa 835). Marine life is practically right underneath our house. We spent hours looking at fishes, rays and sharks. The villa was nice and clean, tided-up at least twice every day. We were spoiled from the minute we arrived on the island. Praveen, our butler looked after us from the first minute to the last. He checked us in very quick, and whenever we needed something extra, he made it happen. So it’s a special thanks to him again. We also like to thank all the staff in the Sunset restaurant. They made our meals very special. Especially Naufaaz, who remembered from day 2 that we drink white wine with our lunch and dinner. We even got flowers on our table from him. And also special thanks to Shuma whose smile greeted us every time we entered the restaurant. The food was really nice, we liked the all kinds of currys and grilled fish, soups, and they make a decent cappuccino as well. We also like to mention the services of Ibbrahim, Rashfaani in the restaurant, and Muizz in the bar. They were all very kind to us, they all made us feel very special. We couldn’t complain about anything at all. We had a wonderful time there, one of our best holidays ever.
