We had an exceptional stay at the Hard Rock Maldives, where we were warmly welcomed by Sato. He was extremely knowledgeable about the resort and attentive to every detail. Our birthday celebration was truly unforgettable.
Upon arrival, we were delighted to find a beautifully decorated birthday setup in our room, complete with a bottle of wine and our favorite cake. This was a lovely surprise, as we had only mentioned it in passing during our reservation. The reservation team did an outstanding job.
The resort offers a wide range of dining options, although we didn't have time to explore them all due to our short stay. As part of the Hard Rock, we were also welcome to use the Sai Lagoon facilities.
At check-out, the front desk team was meticulous in reviewing our bill to ensure that we received the eligible discount. Great job!
The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Even when they were busy maintaining the public areas, one staff member (unfortunately, we forgot his name) went out of his way to offer to take our photos. His kindness was genuinely appreciated.
Overall, our stay at the Hard Rock Maldives was fantastic, and we can't wait to return!

Truly Wonderful Experience
Our stay at Hard Rock Hotel was absolutely unforgettable, thanks to the incredible entertainment, exceptional dining experiences, and outstanding hospitality.
The entertainment was a major highlight, with Deviate Band delivering high-energy performances that made each evening memorable. A special shoutout to solo singer Hera, whose soulful voice during the Sundown Cocktail set the perfect mood for unwinding and enjoying the breathtaking sunset.
Dining at Sessions was a treat, with an impressive variety of dishes. The breakfast buffet, in particular, had something for everyone. The themed dinners were also a standout, with Grill Night serving perfectly cooked cuts, and Japanese Night offering flavors that transported us straight to Japan.
A huge thank you to Chef Ruben, who went above and beyond to check on us and make sure we had everything we needed.
Hard Rock Hotel knows how to create an unforgettable experience, and we can’t wait to return!

Our first-time experience at the Hard Rock Hotel and Restaurant far surpassed all expectations. The exceptional hospitality and genuine warmth of the staff made our stay truly unforgettable. A special mention to Chef Ruben and Ms. Edna, whose dedication and care made us feel like we were dining in the comfort of our own home. Their culinary expertise not only delivered the familiar and comforting flavors of our home country but also impressed us with a remarkable selection of international dishes. To elevate the experience even further, Hera, the talented solo band performer, graciously played and sang our requested songs with a beautiful voice, creating an atmosphere that was both intimate and unforgettable. With a perfect blend of authentic local and international cuisine, impeccable service, and outstanding entertainment, this establishment is a must-visit for anyone seeking a welcoming environment and an exceptional dining experience.

We had the most wonderful vacation experience. A big thank you to ALL the staff for looking after us during this fantastic holiday. Also, for putting so much effort into making Valentine's day special for the guests, buffets, day and night performances, cooking for us every day. Thanks to the bar staff who worked hard to create delicious drinks. The buggy drivers were incredibly amazing in their responsiveness and friendliness. Thanks for the “see you again” banner (I don’t remember the exact words) before we took the speedboat back. It was so touching. You are all superstars! Definitely recommend!
Michelin Guide
I spent an unforgettable week here, the kind of vacation that stays with you long after it ends. Everything was incredible.
The hotel is in a perfect location, close to Malé yet far enough to feel secluded. A short boat ride from the airport makes arrival easy.
The overwater bungalow was perfect—spacious, beautifully decorated, and impeccably clean.
Breakfast offered a fantastic variety, from Asian to European cuisine, with every dish prepared to perfection.
The resort spans two connected islands, allowing easy access to different beaches. Getting around is simple with buggies or bikes, though some bikes needed maintenance.
A great feature is the marina on the second island, home to several restaurants and shops. We tried them all, and Ministry of Crab and the Indian restaurant stood out as favorites.
The resort offers many activities, but the half-day excursion to swim with stingrays and visit a nearby island is a must. An unforgettable experience.
