Remarkable resort with attentive staff, wonderful food options, beautiful villas, lovely natural landscaping, and of course tremendous access to the Indian ocean in all its shades of blue.
The Maldivian team members I spoke with were happy to speak about their country with pride that I learned from and I admire (noting that the resort lifestyle is not like their local customs and traditions).

Spent 4 nights during the June school holidays stay at Atmosphere Kanifushi Maldives which was nothing short of extraordinary. Split stay between beach and water villa. Am thankful for an upgrade at water villa with pool. Loved the glass bottom view.
Food was a highlight, with Pier Six standing out as a fine dining gem offering exquisite meals on the island that delighted our taste buds.
The array of activities available ensured our days were filled with excitement and adventure, from cruises to snorkeling to yoga.
Opting for the unlimited drinks package was a brilliant decision, allowing us to enjoy refreshing cocktails by the pool without a care in the world.
Special thanks to my travel consultant, The Lazing Wanderer, whose impeccable recommendations made this family trip seamless and unforgettable.
This resort truly knows how to blend luxury and fun, creating the perfect holiday experience.

The resort was amazing, we had a great experience throughout all the facilities. Lots of restaurants with different options but mainly Indian and Sri-Lankans foods. So, if you’re an Indian food lover, this resort is your paradise. Loved the live cooking options and the night activities as they performed different activities every night, there were lots of day activities such as fishing, snorkeling, diving…etc
We had the pool beach villa, which had a large private pool and direct access to the beach. Loved everything there, my only comment was that if they focus on all guests from different cultures rather than focusing only on Indian guests. However, I would visit this resort again and take my kids too, the daily activities for kids were amazing. The room size was great, the bed wasn’t that comfortable but acceptable. If you’re considering this resort then make sure to go for the all inclusive option, as you don’t want to miss any of the restaurants, starting from the daily buffets in the Spice restaurant to the fine dining in the Pier 6, the only Veg restaurant was a great experience too, loved the night vibe in the Liquid bar, and the food in the Lantern bar and the Sunset bar on the pool.
Our in-charge of our stay Mr. Rafu was a great person and took care of us all the time 🙏🏼
The Internet wifi wasn’t that strong, but who needs connection in that place 😊
We really enjoyed our one week stay there and hopefully will go back there soon 👍🏻

Had a fantastic holiday here. From the moment we landed in the seaplane, we were warmly welcomed. The sea villa was a great choice. The food was fantastic in all restaurants and there was an excellent selection of drinks. I would return in a heartbeat. A big thank you to all of the staff that made our stay a special one.
Ash Dunn
This place is great to unwind, arrival by sea plane is epic, restaurants and the bars are as you would expect, top notch. Every holiday you take after this, you compare it against this island and the whole experience.
