Hotels With spa in Kaafu Atoll, Maldives

The staff here are very kind and friendly, always stopping to make conversation and check in with you to see how your stay is going. I also enjoyed the music played in all of the restaurants/venues around the island. This was really nice. The food at the restaurants was good, I particularly enjoyed the chicken udon noodle salad from the HRC. The breakfast provided was varied and quite delicious too. There were a couple of minor issues during my stay, the first was that there isn’t really a good place to leave swimsuits to dry apart from the balcony railing. A few resorts I’ve stayed at before have provided drying racks which could be a good solution for this issue. Another issue is that the app didn’t allow me to book restaurant reservations until the 3rd day into my stay, again not the biggest issue, but it was a little annoying. The final issue was my room was very close to the pool where music is played until late into the evening. Not the biggest issue, but it would have been nice to be further away so my room would have been quieter in the evenings. Overall, I enjoyed my stay here and I would recommend it to others.

A. Family trip, two villas. One sunset deluxe beach pool villa, and one sunset beach pool villa. 1. The deluxe villa is very luxurious and new, with air conditioning in the bathroom, but it's far from the restaurant and relatively further from the beach compared to non-deluxe rooms. 2. The regular villa is next to the restaurant, very close to the main pool and the lobby. However, it's older than the deluxe villa and its bathroom doesn't have air conditioning. B. The hotel's location is excellent, just a 20-minute speedboat ride from Malé airport. C. We bought the full board package. The restaurant specializes in Indian cuisine, which we really enjoyed. Juices and beverages are only available at breakfast. For lunch and dinner, you can only order à la carte; soft drinks are $5, juices are $10, plus an additional 27% service charge and tax. Haha... D. The excursions are too expensive, it really hurt my wallet (see picture). It's better to book them on a local island. E. You can snorkel near the overwater bungalows and the jetty, but there aren't many marine creatures, and the water quality is just average. Overall, the hotel offers great value for money. Next time, I definitely need to visit a local island, it's so much more economical... PS. It's best to download WhatsApp in advance. Our butler didn't really use WeChat and was often unreachable...

Let's start with the positives: The food on Ganfan Island was truly excellent and perfectly suited our family's taste. The Thai and Bo restaurants were both delicious, and Midi was also delicious. It's right by the pool, and there's a super nice ********* lady who I consider my favorite waitress on the entire island. The black guy who greeted us upon arrival was the worst in my opinion. He chewed gum, was inattentive, and never smiled. Fortunately, he realized he had trouble communicating with me (his English was limited), so he replaced us with a Malaysian guy, who immediately put me back on vacation. The rest of the staff on the island were all very good. Secondly, the value was excellent. A four-night all-inclusive water bungalow for 22,000 yuan was fantastic (5,000 yuan a night is cheaper than some hotels in Sanya), and there's a 20-dollar daily credit per person that can be used off-island. With kids in tow, and wanting a smooth island landing in the afternoon, this was a no-brainer. It was a no-brainer. We were literally in our room in just seven minutes. Cons: It's close to Male, offering a panoramic view of the entire city. One side almost faces it, and at night, it's dotted with lights. The snorkeling is average, with almost no fish beneath the overwater bungalows. After just one snorkel, I felt too lazy to get in the water or change clothes. The pool was fine. Overall, it's suitable for beginners (I've visited various islands at least 20 times), so it wasn't particularly impressive. It's a great place for families with children to relax and take their kids out. The island is neither too big nor too small.

As a resort offering great value for money, we were all very satisfied. At the airport, look for your contact person at counters A17-18 to arrange your speedboat transfer. Firstly, this island is connected to the Hard Rock Hotel and Marina Hotel, which means you get to experience three islands in one. You can move freely between them, and there are 11 restaurants in total. We went to the Hard Rock Cafe chain restaurant one evening, and dinner for four cost us $200. We stayed for 3 nights, rotating between a Sky Room, an Overwater Villa, and a Beach Villa, one night each. The difference between the Sky Room and the Beach Villa is that the Sky Room is on the second floor with better views, while the Beach Villa is on the ground floor with direct access to the beach from the balcony. Each has its pros and cons. The Overwater Villas have room numbers starting with 1, and you can directly access the sea for snorkeling. The hotel has an app called 'SAii'. You can use it by scanning the QR code on your room TV upon check-in. It's available in Chinese. You can use it to request transfer buggies and sign up for many free activities. I initially thought we'd just relax for three days, but it turned into a bit of an 'intensive' trip with so much to do! Diamond members have a happy hour from 5-6 PM, offering three types of snacks/canapés and unlimited complimentary drinks and alcoholic beverages. We ate instant noodles on the first and third nights, and at Hard Rock on the second night. With happy hour snacks and drinks, plus breakfast, we had plenty to eat. The hotel breakfast was quite good, though it was always a bit windy due to the sea breeze. The speedboat transfer to and from the island takes 15 minutes, but it's very hot and stuffy inside. Our group of four tipped the butler $20 in total. For the overwater villa, they allowed us to check in at 11 AM, and we moved to a different room at 2 PM the next day. We tipped $2 each time for luggage transfers. As we moved rooms daily, we didn't tip for daily housekeeping. The hotel offers complimentary rental of snorkels, masks, and fins. We even saw a sea turtle up close during one of the free activities. Diamond members can also rent paddle boats and yellow kayaks for free for one hour daily. Bicycle rental on the island costs $10 for 24 hours. In the evenings, you can find many small crabs 🦀 and hermit crabs 🐚 on the beach. Recommendations: Bring instant noodles and snacks to the island, and a swimming float from home if you want to just relax in the water. The island accepts USD, or you can use Alipay/WeChat Pay.

Close to the pier, the rooms are clean and spacious, and there's a pool with a beautiful high-angle view of the ocean. The fly problem in the restaurant, mentioned in previous reviews, has significantly improved; I noticed the hotel placed fly traps. However, the Wi-Fi in the room still occasionally disconnects, and I hope this can also be improved.

Very nice and comfortable accommodation. Went with a friend of mine back in October 2023, and we were greeted by a warm friendly receptionist and a clean lobby. Our room was on the second floor, with very comfortable beds, toilets, and necessary amenities. Except that the sink's tap water smelled a little funny which we avoided using. However the reception was quick to send over whatever we requested, like water, clean towels etc. Would definitely book again if i ever visit Himmafushi again next time!

This is a predominantly 'white' island, not well-known on Chinese social media, making it a niche destination. It's truly perfect for a vacation. 🏖️ 1. The island isn't large, and there aren't many rooms, so the staff are incredibly enthusiastic and genuinely enjoy their work. They start working before sunrise, around 5 or 6 am, and will greet you with a cheerful good morning. 2. There's a wide variety of water sports available, which require an additional fee. Group activities need enough participants to form a group. The instructors are very patient and helpful. As a solo traveler, I was quite apprehensive about the risks of diving. I stuck close to my instructor the whole time; he was very polite and even helped me take photos underwater. 3. There's one bar and three restaurants here. The food portions are really generous. 4. The front desk will arrange the most convenient speedboat transfers based on your arrival and departure times. They also arrange the latest speedboat departure on your last night, so you don't have to worry about wasting a day wandering around Malé city before your flight. My flight was at 10:10 PM, and my speedboat departure was scheduled for 7:30 PM. 5. The ocean is beautiful, the rooms are very clean, and the staff are super friendly. I absolutely love this place!

Amazing Stay at Arena Beach Hotel Beautiful beach vibes with a clean, hotel-allocated beach front long beach with refreshing dring service. and an infinity pool with stunning sunset views. Rooms are clean with sea view, with basic amenities with daily water, tea/ coffee, and towels are provided.Special thanks to Abishek from HK he was very attentive he acknowledges my request and resolved very quickly as my bathroom faucet was leaking. Food & Drinks: Wide buffet & à la carte options at affordable prices, with non-alcoholic beverages. Dinner with live music made evenings extra special. Sisha option was also a alternative choice as island not serving alcohol. Breakfast buffet was good healthy choice with friendly service staff specially Hasan ali (friendly and professional man) Abash attentive and prompt service.Hasim/mahmood and one indian lady from Lucknow( good recommendation and suggestive selling) Nightlife & Activities: Relaxing and charming nightlife. Night vibes was really amazing dining ambience is same as five star resort level. Water sports like stingrays and sharks snorkelling and Sandbank full days tours were unforgettable. Reservations cheking and checkout processes was little tired For guests on long journeys who arrive early at the airport (e.g., 9:00 AM) but have transfers to the island only at 13:00, consider providing alternative options such as a comfortable lounge, refreshments, or earlier boat transfers. Waiting 4+ hours after a long 9-hour flight can be tiring, so small adjustments would greatly improve guest experience. Special thanks to BERLIN as he is only senior label staff who always asked feedback with friendly manner and engage to guest relation service.provided all the information needed about our stay including chekin check out process make everything smooth and easy. Value for money: Excellent. A beautiful island stay you won't forget!

I recently stayed at Sheraton Full Moon Maldives in one of their Overwater Villas, and it was a truly memorable experience. The villa was beautifully designed, clean, and well-maintained — offering direct access to the crystal-clear waters and stunning panoramic views of the ocean. The atmosphere was incredibly peaceful, making it the perfect escape for relaxation and rejuvenation. The staff throughout the resort were generally excellent — friendly, helpful, and attentive. They handled all requests promptly and with professionalism. A special mention goes to the hotel management team, especially Mr. Megan and a few others, who went above and beyond to resolve a minor incident during our stay. Their approach was calm, respectful, and solution-focused, which left a very positive impression. Most of the team displayed great hospitality, especially at reception, housekeeping, and concierge. However, the only slight downside was at ”The Feast” dining area, where a few staff members appeared less engaging and rarely smiled — a contrast to the otherwise warm and welcoming service standard across the resort.
