“A speedboat whisks you from Malé airport to this beachfront resort, where classic Maldivian design meets contemporary flair. I especially appreciate its more intimate private beach, alongside ample recreational choices from watersports to spa treatments. The dining stands out, too, with fresh, diverse flavors.”

Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests frequently mention the quick speedboat transfer, taking only 15 minutes from Male airport. Many appreciate the soft, white powder sand on the main beach and the high quality, varied food available at the buffet restaurant, with fresh pasta offered every evening; some found the number of sunbeds and umbrellas to be limited. The house reef is easily accessible and teeming with marine life, including reef sharks and rays, with manta ray excursions available via a short boat ride.

Great stay close to airport

quick transferwhite sandfresh pasta
I found the speed boat transfer quick. It took only fifteen minutes. I liked the soft white powder sand on the main beach. The food had great quality, and fresh pasta was available every evening.
I felt that more sunbeds and umbrellas were necessary, as they got booked up early.

I encountered some issues . The beach seating was insufficient. Sunbeds were uncomfortable (hard plastic without cushions) and not cleaned daily. The all-inclusive drinks selection felt limited, consisting mainly of local beers and spirits.
