The resort island was lovely, staff were amazing and the buffet style food had plenty of choice across many cultures. I stayed in an over water villa and whilst the island itself is rated at 4.5 star the accommodation was closer to a 3 but of course with an amazing view and direct stair access to the water. The swing seats that often get shown are unbalanced on a lot of the terraces, mine included, not the end of the world but I didn't use it that often. Cleaning staff came almost every day offering to clean/top up drinking water. The AC had a musty smell but was quite effective at keeping the room cool, however the exterior unit made a loud noise which made me worry how the neighbours would hear it. A lot of the thatch roofing needs replacing, terrace/walkways decking is damaged/loose in some places. The room had cockroaches and ants but I was able to eventually get a spray bottle from reception and every day I would see a pest control man going along the walkway to the water villas. Wi-Fi is terrible. Every room has its own router which means signal is amazing but In the early hours of the morning (when no one else is using it) I could get around 40Mbps but at any point during the day/early evening you are lucky to get 3Mbps. The hotel TVs have a limited selection of downloaded movies and a few TV channels. If you have kids make sure to download any videos/games in advance to keep them entertained especially if it rains which it did on a few days in February.

We had an amazing experience and we were very sad to leave the resort. The staff is incredible! They are always very helpful, smiling and professional. A big thank you to the all restaurant team for their service the food was always delicious. We stayed 9 nights and they cleaned out the room every single day and changed our towels and beach towels daily. Our house (171) was in a perfect spot to swim and tw water was beautiful. Overall we would highly recommend the resort the only advice is to improve the wifi (even though it's perfect to switch off completely so you don't have distractions). Once again big thank you to the whole staff!

Lovely stay here. But zero management. The buffet restaurant was good and well managed and the staff were all lovely. The facilities were unkept and in need of major repair. Splintery unsafe decking around the pool with loose wooden boards with rusty nails poking out. A bit shabby to be honest. The sea grass in the sea all around the island prohibited swimming. Needs an urgent repair overhaul but we enjoyed our time there. The diving was excellent with very nice and professional staff, and the mantarays were obliging. My husband fell through the floorboards around the pool area and has a major bruise on his leg. No recompense whatsoever from the management. Could have been really bad. The manageress was great but powerless to do make any changes. We enjoyed our stay but we will not return to this resort. We are old hands at the Maldives and there are definitely better atolls to book.
