Good for the money
The staff are wonderful, excellent service and the food was really good with a good selection each day but the rooms need to be refurbished, stayed in the water bungalow and the deck, steps, doors, roof etc need to be replaced, looking very tatty. I'm sure this is reflected in the price as it was very reasonable i think for Maldives, would return once renewed. DO NOT TAKE THE SPEEDBOAT TRANSFER, 2.5 to 3 hours of hell. We spoke to a couple who crossed in the dark which must have been even worse, pay the extra for the water plane, its roughly an hour with a stop and the views are beautiful.

I went with my wife for our honeymoon for 2 weeks. We took a Watervilla that was amazing with a great view.. The food was amazing a lot was indian food but international options were available. The staff was super friendly, thumbs up for Jowel. If you can afford it take the seaplane it's more confortable, we took the boat for arrival and seaplane for departure. The boat was fun but it takes longer (2h30 hours) and you may feel the need to vomit, seaplane is smooth and fast (40 min). Highly recommend the stay.

The place is good, if you want to pay for every basic amenity and even after paying for the full board you get the option to pay for drinks. Please take fresh clean dollar bills as they will examine them like a hawk for when you check out and pay for the invoice. Ask for extra bathroom essentials and they will hesitate to provide them. Overall a good expensive place which will provider services for a cost even though you have booked the all inclusive package.

The design of the property is excellent. There could be more utility shops inside. Its very well maintained . Staff is very good. The beaches at the back are so clean. On the downside, My room phone was not working throughout my stay. AC was not working on the first day. I had requested for a wheel chair which was not provided. But i had an excellent time in the resort.

The good: Staff, food, location. The not so good: Lots of maintenance required everywhere. It appears old, tired, worn out, uncared for. Considering the above lower prices for accommodations would be fitting. But I guess people keep filling the place up, so no decrease. I wonder how may people visit a second time. I would not.

Property is in delapidated state Even walls in reception area are peeling off and worn out. Ants -big and small - are running around inside rooms and even on dining table. Faucet is broken and missing a part in our vanity area. Overall dirty and uncomfortable. Everything is severely worn out-drapes, chairs are old and dated and not clean. This is a 2 star resort charging 4 star prices. Food is terrible both in quality and cooking. Considering we are paying close to $40 a meal we are eating worse than junk food. Not only food tastes bad, you cannot chew the meat. It is like hard frozen meat. Only good thing is Lynn who is the customer supervisor. She is extremely helpful and kind. Most of the staff are helpful and nice. Unfortunately the place and facilities are so bad.

I would recommend this hotel to a friend. Hotel staff is absolutely amazing. They were kind and hospitable every day and greeted us with a smile!! The rooms are good but should be maintained a bit more and should be updated soon. Food is super expensive so opt into the all inclusive plan. The water bungalows are nice but not worth the money. Lastly, go line fishing.

Wonderful Island Resort
We stayed for a week at Medhufushi Island Resort for our honeymoon and it was a fantastic experience. We stayed for half the week in the semi-detached beach house and the rest of the week in the beach villa. Both rooms were fantastic and offered their views and experiences. The island itself is very beautiful and being the only resort on the entire island, it felt that we had the entire island to ourselves. The staff were great, attentive but not intrusive. In the dining area we were attended by Ali Mahir who was great and after a couple of days, he became familiar with our regular drink orders and would have them ready at our table as soon as we entered the dining area. The food varied on a day to day basis and although it was a bit different in taste to what we are used to, it was generally pretty good. They have watersports and spa on the island as well. Would definitely recommend the waterbed and jet skiing with the Dolphins. Ask for Rosh who was wonderful and made sure we made the most of the activities. The excursions offered by the island are pretty good and though snorkelling is free, it would be good if they can provide the customers with a little more guidance on what to expect for those who haven't done this before. The island is far from Male and you have to travel via seaplane so to make it worth your while, best to have your stay for at-least 3 days. Overall a fantastic experience and would definitely recommend to other travellers as well.
