Giulia Kastro
We stayed at the Ocean Villa at the end of February. After two days of traveling, we finally arrived at the resort. We were welcomed with a drink, coconut sweets, and a type of dried fish. We arrived around noon, but check-in was only at 2 p.m. We were exhausted and hungry. When we asked if we could have lunch after check-in, the lady who assisted us said we wouldn’t be entitled to it — we were quite upset by that response. Later, it became clear that if we had lunch on arrival, we wouldn’t be entitled to lunch on the day of checkout — their policy. Our package was all-inclusive.
So, if you’re coming from far away, be prepared — the resort won’t provide even a simple sandwich unless you pay for it. We even spoke with the “manager” because we found the first explanation confusing and didn’t quite understand it. In the end, this situation caused some discomfort upon arrival, and considering the price charged, the resort could be a bit more flexible with its guests — even if it was just by offering some snacks in the room since lunch wasn’t included.
Aside from that, the service at the bars and restaurants was very good. The sea was fantastic, the private pool was very clean, and the room service was excellent. There’s no concierge, but the reception staff always asked about our stay and how things were going. We booked a few activities, but unfortunately, it rained on those days, so we ended up enjoying the sea and the pool more.
We managed to book a spa appointment, and it was incredible — the therapists were excellent professionals, and the service was impeccable.

Very amazing service, the staff is amazing, very kind and caring. The room was amazing and the room cleaner does a fantastic job! The food is amazing, very well prepared and served. The water was amazing, the beach and water activities were amazing! Everything is so well prepared and managed! Definitely an experience i would recommend to everyone! Coming back again, for sure!

Absolutely breathtaking. Recently returned from an anniversary trip and could not have been more impressed. After years of researching resorts in this location and being overwhelmed by the options we landed on this one for their amazing overwater villas. They were even better in person which was hard to believe based on the beautiful photos. Meals at all inclusive resorts can also be hit or miss but every meal was amazing. We loved the themed nights and couldn’t believe we were eating tacos in the Maldives. 11/10 wish it were closer so we could visit once a year.

One of the best experiences in my life. The staff was exceptional, extremely helpful and polite and all day with a smile on their face. Facilities were super clean and IRL more beautiful than the pictures on their website. Try all the diving excursions it is really worth it.
Jun Thompson
This was a bucket list destination and we loved our stay here. I recommend you come! We saw amazing sealife (turtles, reef fish, whale-shark, manta-ray), ate and drank lovely food, enjoyed the stunning views, clear seas. The journey on the seaplane was loads of fun too. There is nothing that I would change.
