We had the most AMAZING stay, the rooms are spacious and clean, the water is the bluest I’ve ever seen and the food was delicious. The sunsets were absolutely breathtaking. We stayed at both a beach and water villa and preferred the water villa. Above all the staff made our stay, everyone was so lovely and go above and beyond to accommodate any request, nothing is too much trouble. Lydia was a ray of sunshine every morning at breakfast and the food and beverage manager Jannika went out of his way to make any of our fave dishes we requested in the buffet. Even put together romantic set up for my husband and I on our last night. Nuhaad, Muna, Ruwan, and Namal also made our stay so amazing. We have been to Maldives 3 times and travel extensively and this has been one of our favourite trips. We stayed for 9 nights with our 4 month old and could have stayed longer! I would highly recommend this resort to everyone.

Well kept peaceful and modern facility, everything was fantastic, what more can I say.watersports team were great hosts with fishing and paddle boarding trips, try the wine tasting, it's great fun and quite an education. All the restaurant food was good quality, we loved the service and food the most in Roma. My only down side was on the return to the airport, there is no support from the hotel here, there should be, as another group will pretend to be and over charge for various services from the hotel and offer chargeable services.

The dolphin ocean suite was excellent, with splendid views of the vast open ocean and waters so crystal clear you can spot all types of reef fish, including a black tip shark which hung out a lot at ours. The bed was comfortable and the room was much more spacious than I had envisioned by looking at photos. The bathroom design also took my breath away, something I did not expect from photos posted online. Pictures simply cannot do the design any justice. I would highly recommend the dolphin suites to everyone who doesn't mind walking a distance to and from the suite. We travelled with young kids, so the hotel was very kind to offer their buggy service to us. But guests without kids or without mobility issues are not offered the same, and I can imagine the walk being quite tiring under the hot sun, especially if you are coming from the other end of the island where the spa and Mediterranean restaurant are. Service was excellent, and by far the best I have experienced in recent years. The staff seem genuinely happy to be working there and are keen to always help us out where needed. Everyone from the restaurant waiters to the attendants at the kids'club playroom were super friendly and forthcoming with information. Very glad to have made this place our first destination after borders reopened!

Sun Siyam Iru Veli will always be our favorite vacation spot. Went for our honeymoon, flight was super long, but It was all worth It. All staff is very courteous and accommodating. Food was just amazing! The rooms are gorgeous, highly recommend the Ocean Villa. Our own little paradise. Would definitely come back some day.

Pros: The huts over the water are so beautiful. You can snorkel right off them. The island walks to the restaurants are hot but it's nice to get some exercise and walk the island :) the food was GOOD! So they must have adjusted after peoples reviews. I thought it was great and I've stayed at A LOT of 5 star resorts. The restaurant and house cleaning staff are amazing! so fun and friendly( I even became friends with one, Ernie. She was absolutely wonderful and I think management should promote her to customer relations, management or an Ambassador!! truly ) The Whaleshark snorkelling was Well worth it. You also have lunch at a little private island. The cheese and wine pairing was wonderful with the sommelier. The spa was the BEST massage and facial I have EVER gotten in my life. The float plane was lovely coming in and out. No issues there -- overall, it's a great place. I would recommend it and would stay again! Cons: It is true the ambassador's are definitely 'tired' and just only message you when you ask for something. There's no enthusiasm or texting you being like " what do YOU want to do today! " Trying to make it special. It is what it is. If only they switched the restaurant staff to be ambassadors ! Just don't go there expecting that. But it is still nice they have the ability to even text someone with things you need or questions at any time anyway. Most resorts don't even have that.

Let me first say we had an absolutely amazing stay at the Sun Siyam Iru Veli! The staff was very friendly and helpful. Guest services was excellent. The staff provided some very special details for our anniversary and we really appreciated those extra touches.The island was very well maintained. The views and access to the ocean from the overwater Villa were stunning! It definitely looks exceeded our expectations. The hotel offered nightly entertainment that was very good. The food was very good and it had a nice variety/themes every day of the week. Also, the food was very flavorful. The one improvement that we would suggest is having heated containers for the food, there were some dishes that we went to select and they were not warm at all.
