Adaaran Select Meedhupparu

REBECCA DOWNES

5* To sum up our honeymoon at the Adaaran prestige water villas we would say : OUTSTANDING , 1st class 5+* service , luxury indulgence. From the moment we got to Male airport we knew we were in for an amazing trip. And what a wonderful and memorable holiday it was! Arriving at the airport in Male, the organisation of our transport to the island was excellent and we were really well looked after on the speedboat and domestic flight. It was such an awesome experience. Our Butler Clovie (the only female butler) was incredible- she took care of everything for us , from getting us as many pina coladas whilst we relaxed by the amazing pool, to booking a sunset cruise to running me to the doctor to get some medication I needed. She was wonderful and gave us first class service. We wish her all the best in her endeavours - she will go far !! The water villa restaurant was like a michelin fine dining experience every night - made even more special with the service given by Nihad- our amazing waiter. He was consistently professional yet warm and friendly cracking jokes too: we really hope Nihad and Clovie get the recognition they deserve and continue to do amazing things at Adaaran. A big thanks also to Moosa who kept our room spotless day and night. We met many repeat guests- who have been going back to Adaaran for many years and I can see why. We are definitely going to return. Thank you to Adaaran Meddupparu Water Villa for the best honeymoon experience we could have every wished for Xx Rebecca And Frank xX

Fabulous experience! We absolutely loved everything from start to finish. Stunning island! Our butler Clovie was attentive and kept us informed about what was going on, on a daily basis. She took great care to ensure we didn’t miss a thing, before passing on to Addhu. Unais who looked after our villa room, also excellent, making sure our stay was even more special and comfortable than it already was. Water Villa food was delicious, service and attention to detail exceptional. Afternoon tea, canapés…yum! Chef Pradeep took time to make sure that our meals were perfect! Ifaau was also great during our stay! Loved it! Floating breakfast a highlight!! Would highly recommend Adaaran Water Villas

From the moment we landed at Malé Airport, we felt like a part of the Adaaran family. The warmth of the welcome, along with the kindness and smiles of every staff member we encountered, made our stay truly special. Everything was seamless—no issues at all. The cleanliness of the resort and the quality of the food were excellent. Words hardly do justice to the breathtaking beauty of the beach and the crystal-clear waters surrounding the island—it was like stepping into a dream. We were thoroughly satisfied with our stay, and we’d especially like to thank Vernon for his genuine friendliness and attentive care. This holiday was a wonderful escape for me and my sister, and the memories we made in the Maldives will stay with us forever.

We had the most amazing experience. Everything from the amazing buffet, breakfast had all the options you can imagine, healthy options too. The number of restaurants around the island meant you wouldn’t get bored of the menus which is great when you’re staying in one place for the whole holiday. We were able to snorkel off the beach from our room and we saw manta rays, star fish, turtles, an octopus and lots of big fish. The pool was also so nice, with a bar and our barman Naseer was excellent. He was so friendly and was great to see him whenever he was on shift.

This was our second holiday to Meedhupparu and it lived up to our return expectations in everyway that it could. Everything on the island was clean and well maintained and all of the staff were immensely friendly, helpful and approachable in every way. The island experienced its first rain of 2025 over night whilst we were there during which 28cm fell. When we awoke some of the islands internal paths were underwater. The maintenance team were on it straight away and by 1000hrs had pumps running to clear the surface water. By that evening all the paths were cleared of water and back in use. Throughout our stay we rotated around the islands restaurants but our favorite by far was the Sufura which specialised in Indian cuisine with a different theme each night reflecting a different province of India. The food was so good I am not sure I will ever be able to enjoy another curry in the UK again. The below members of staff I would like to give a special mention to as they regularly went over and above to make out stay even more enjoyable. Adaaran Select take note……these staff members are a true credit to your brand and should be retained: Apoorva (front of house at Sufura) - Always friendly and welcoming on every visit. Soyonia (front of house at Jaafaiy) - Always greeted guests in professional and friendly manner. Lexman (sous chef at Sufura) - Always friendly and more than happy to take time in explaining to guests what all of the specialality dishes were. He was also in charge of the chicken being cooked in the firepit which was mouth wateringly delicious every night of the week. Abdulla (waiter Sufura) – Polite, friendly and attentive. Knew what we liked to drink and would bring it over without even being asked. The sand area of the restaurant which he was responsible for was always pristine. Vernon (reception) – Really vigilant and immensely professional. Would always take time in the evening to find the guests whom he had had contact with and ask them how their day had been. Also an accomplished karaoke singer as he didn’t even need the auto cue. Nirdosh (Watervillas Butler) – Although not our butler this year he always made a point of coming over to speak to us and ask how our stay was going whenever we passed one another on the island. Immensely professional and always impeccably turned out. Ali Hameed (house keeping) – Maintained our room beautifully throughout our 2 week stay. There was never a grain of sand in the room after he had been and he also ensured that we received extra bottled water after I happened to mention that we both drank 2 litres per day. Petkum, Chamara & N.Ssanka (Sunset Bar) – Despite the bar regularly being incredibly busy these boys ran a very professional and efficient operation. There was rarely much of a wait for our drinks to be brought over and amazingly they also had time to have a chat and joke with the customers. We both appreciated their taste in funky shirts too.
