Reethi Beach Resort

It was a remarkable experience, we will never forget, people who work there are the friendliest, the best food every day, especially the bar tenders like dear Madu from the Handuvaru bar at the watervillas with who we shared a lot good energy and were best taken care of. The staff from the watersports center were amazing also, waterskiing and the best full moon night snorkeling with Bob, which i will never forget for it was very adventurous. We'd love to go there again best with all ourfriends with us, to have really good times there.

We spent 15 nights at this lovely resort and opted for the Sunrise Rooms,190 and 191 on an all inclusive basis. This side of the island has the biggest waves which we liked. The Sunset rooms on the opposite side is calmer but has less cover from the sun. We were celebrating my 80th birthday and my sister’s 70th with my daughter and granddaughter. This was my 3rd trip to the Maldives, previously 2014 and 2016 to different islands. The seaplane flight is amazing, such wonderful views of the other islands and takes around 40 minutes from Male. You off load to a pontoon and then transfer to a boat which takes about 6 minutes. The food is very good and varied and the restaurant staff are helpful and very friendly. English is used as the main language. The room plugs are all 3 pin and hairdryers are supplied in all rooms. The gift shop sells lots of gifts, clothes and is worth a visit or three. It also has restaurants that are not in the all inclusive option but can be booked and charge to your room. My granddaughter is an avid scuba diver and was amazed at the sea life she saw, mantas, turtles, stingrays, dolphins and sharks in the house reef. There is also a dive centre on the island. I have no hesitation in recommending this resort as we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The rooms are not 5 star but having said that they are comfortable and have everything you need. We hope to return in 2 years.

We had really great time at Reethi beach resort. Feel like in paradise for the whole week. We stayed in water villa which has the house reef just in front of our balcony. We went snorkelling every day and see different fishes, sharks and stingray. Food in the main restaurant was fantastic. We were on all inclusive and did not expect much for this as been to others places before. The quality of the food is great, plenty of choices and very tasty. The best thing at this resort is the staffs. They are the asset to company! They work hard, long hours but still deliver the best service they could. Special thanks to Faloo in the main bar. He is very friendly, has service mind and good sense of humour. We had good laugh with him every time we were there. Also, Aalem in the main restaurant who we saw every meal during our stay. He is polite and remember what we like to drink. Rubel the chef on cooking station, our housekeeper who we didn't get his name. We really enjoy staying there and wish to go back one day.

DONT EVER GO TO THIS PLACE !!!. Unless you want to experience an unbeleavable, never to be forgotten holiday. I took my wife on a surprise birthday trip to this resort, We could have not chosen a better place to visit. The staff could not do enough for us, The food in all the restraunts was superb with the chefs overlooking everything. The bar staff tendered to us bringing our drinks to us (even if we did not want one) but we still drunk them! It would be wrong to single out any one staff members as everyone was brilliant. But I will, Madushan the bar man who made the most fantastic cocktails, Alex who ran the pool area,Farloo my new brother,Rahul from the sunset bar, and of course Areeb. Just a few members of a great team. A five star performance. Thank you all for a great holiday.

Since the end of the Corona lockdowns, we just returned from our fourth visit to this wonderful island. The whole concept of the island combined with a staff who are always very friendly with a smile on their faces is making it perfect for a relaxing and peaceful escape from hectic day to day business. We love it that much that we are definitely planning to return again. Reception: always very friendly and helpful team making you feel extremely comfortable Restaurant: A very big thank you to the whole staff! The variation of the buffets is fantastic, and the taste of the dishes is extraordinary (also vegetarians will find a large variety of very tasty changing options). The creativity of the Chefs is absolutely outstanding, and they are always very interested to get into a conversation with the guests about everything around the restaurant and the actual buffets. A very, very big thank to Amjad, Kokky and Akram for their excellent service, their extremely friendly approach and the warm smile on their faces (if you didn’t know you were on holidays you’d feel like being at home). And a very big thank you also to Rubel, who made the best ever fresh omelets and/or fried eggs every morning with a big smile on his face and great personal interest on the plans for the day. Sunset-Bar: We loved going there every evening for some drinks served by Rahul and very much enjoyed his humor and personal approach. Dive-Center: We really enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere with Barney and his team. A very big thank you to Shfxaan and Anif for a number of great dives, and a very big thank you also to the boat crew who were extremely friendly and helpful getting us into the water as well as out. Garden: This is something that is very rarely seen on the Maldives. It looks a bit like a beautifully decorated park / garden center with an environment for multiple flowers, bushes and trees and they are also growing various lettuces which are being served on the buffets. We hope that the new Management will keep the spirit of this very sound concept going. Hope to see you again soon! Lots of love from Germany

(10 Nights Standard AI, beachside villa) This was our fourth holiday in the Maldives, always in similarly rated properties, so my comments should be taken in that context. Reethi is not the most luxurious of resorts, but I do not think it is trying to be. It succeeds in offering what we felt was an enjoyable and good-value stay, and that is what is important. Although we had a list of gripes and observations, there were so many positive things about the resort that we still enjoyed our time at Reethi. My wife was absolutely ecstatic about the garden and was pleased to be able to talk to the garden staff about it. The beaches are wonderful. The reef is great - we snorkeled every day and saw different fish on every occasion – many of which we have been unable to identify! The quality and variety of food provided was certainly up to the standard we expected, and we returned home heavier. Different themed food nights meant that there was little chance of becoming bored with the menu. I should add that there was a Maldivian pickle in the condiments selection that I would advise should be treated with both caution and respect. The staff in every area are absolutely charming - the main-bar guys were super, the restaurant waiting staff excellent, the housekeeping and towel service great, reception helpful (and a shout-out to Yoosuf the guitarist - best evening of the week). The people make the place work regardless of whatever else is not quite up to par, and are the resort's main asset. Of the downsides, I usually have maybe five or six key points to comment upon, and I am satisfied that I can put these into perspective in any review that I publish. In this case I had rather a lot of – mostly minor – issues that I gave the company the opportunity to respond to beforehand, and I am very pleased that they provided a thorough reply, which informs this review. Firstly, regarding the accommodation - as a general observation, the villa seemed to be in need of at least a "spruce-up", and some minor maintenance; furnishings, fittings and plumbing seemed to be a bit “tired”. There are some design points (some being common in hotel design, to be fair) which need attention, these being : 1) Storage and bathroom lighting needed improvement 2) Electrical outlets require updating (e.g. integrated USB) 3) Windows needed privacy net curtains 4) Air-conditioning controls were incomprehensible (I think the controller labelling was badly translated from Chinese) so finding comfortable settings was a little challenging. There were a few items that we have become accustomed to in Maldives resorts that we missed here : 1) Bathrobes and slippers 2) A supply of soft drinks in the room refrigerator for All-Inclusive 3) In-room wi-fi 4) Smart TVs The company response was that, since the change of management earlier in the year, all of the shortcomings mentioned regarding facilities and décor have been slated for updates and re-development, so they are clearly aware that

Very nice place, mostly the west side of the island. In April, we saw hundreds of beautiful fishes and turtles every day during snorkeling. Food is tasty and the buffet style is appropriate.

Everybody are so friendly. The room boy, the girls and boys in the restaurant are so great. The food in the Main Restaurant are excellent. We make a Beach Barbecue, it was the best and such a amazing experience

It was fantastic at the Reethi Beach resort, with a feeling of paradise on earth with all the beautiful nature around us. All the staff were very helpful and exceptionally friendly. A cheerful smile every day despite their hard work to ensure guests' complete satisfaction. We had a wonderful time with our highest appreciation and respect to all employees of Reethi Beach Resort.
