We really liked the Sun Siyam Vilu Reef Resort. The island is small and beautiful and stands out in particular due to the great vegetation and good service. All the staff are always friendly and attentive. We had an east-facing water villa. This meant we could stay in the shade all day and had a pleasant breeze. The water villa is very spacious for three people, as it also has a large terrace, and thanks to the high privacy screen you can enjoy complete privacy.
Our special thanks go to Sham and Simal, who looked after us very warmly right from the start.
We would also like to thank Rakesh for the great room service. He was very attentive and always made sure our room was in perfect condition.
Chaminda, the chef, often spoiled us with extraordinary curries from his home country Sri Lanka. We would also like to say a big thank you to the entire service team, especially Surja, Juri, Ali, Shakil, Kushal and Dilshan.
We can definitely recommend this resort and will hopefully be back soon.

I had an amazing experience with my family at Vilu Reef. Everything was top notch, the environment was super welcoming, the staff were all friendly and made our experience 100% better, the island is absolutely beautiful and well taken care of.
I would like to give some special mentions to specific staff at the resort. In the Aqua restaurant all the staff were amazing and friendly, but our experience was even more special due to the waiter that took care of us every night which was Shakil and his lovely supervisor Dilshan. These two staff members made the holiday so fun and welcoming, making us want to eat dinner at the restaurant every night due to their friendly demeanour and welcoming ways. The last, but definitely not least, person I want to give a special and separate mention to was our island guide and helper Adhu. He made sure that our stay at the island was relaxing and that all our problems that arose was taken care of swiftly and stress free.
Overall our stay at Sun Siyam Vilu Reef was absolutely amazing and we would recommend 1000% to anyone that wants to have a relaxing holiday with their family or even as a couple.

The view is amazing, you can snorkeling anywhere around the island, sea finishing is amazing we got 15 fishes in 2 hours. Very memorable trip, will definitely come back in the future. Housekeeping team has fantastic service, Habib cleaned my rooms he is an amazing guy, really thankful for his service! Compare to the price, food is not that good for AI, but fair enough.

People working in the resort are very nice, friendly and open for any requests.
They create a good atmosphere on an island. We want to give thanks especially for Niyaaf and Shakil.
We hope to see you someday

We spent our honeymoon here and it was the most wonderful place we have ever been. The people are incredible, everyone smiles and always has a kind word for us.The view is amazing, I have never been anywhere where the wildlife was so rich. I saw dolphins swinging from the swing bed, I swam with turtles and sharks. We definitely want to come back here one day.
