UPDATE: I've contacted the hotel several times since returning home and they only responded once. They said this stuff happens and that there is nothing they could do to help. How about refund some portion of the thousands of dollars we spent at their hotel to make up for the 10k+ that we had to spend as a result of their negligence. My tripadvisor review disappeared, which tells me they have found a way to get bad reviews removed. Our situation happened to several others the day we were traveling, so I'm sure it happens on other days, too, yet you don't say those reviews, which is concerning. Seriously, stay away.... REVIEW: It pains be to write this review because the staff at the resort itself are lovely, but the resort management is horrendous and we are out $10,000+ because of their negligence. This resort offers better prices than other resorts because it is SO FAR AWAY. You need to take an actual domestic flight (Maldivian Airlines), not a sea plane or high speed boat like the other resorts. This means that you are at the mercy of the tiny airline's delays, cancelations, and other issues. The hotel books the flights for you (you have to pay) and you have no control over the schedule or anything. They booked our return flight to Male way too close to our international return flight. That flight got so delayed that we missed our international flight. The hotel representatives handled this in the worst way possible. They initially said they would help us with rebooking and costs incurred, but once we got to Male they said that could not help us in any way. They made us no-shows for our international flight, which meant we couldn't get the money/credit for it, despite it not being our fault. They had reps at the Male airport and had our passport information and knew our flight was delayed, yet, they weren't competent enough to speak to our international airline and make sure they knew we were NOT voluntary no-shows. They cherry on top is that we later learned our international flight was also delayed and we could have made it on the flight if we had gone straight to the ticketing counter. However, the hotel representative told us we missed it, there was nothing we could do, and to go wait in a lounge while they helped us (no help was given). We are still waiting to hear back from them and I will provide an update if so, but so far, they have not taken any accountability. We live in the US so getting home from the Maldives is not easy, so to have been left stranded there with no way home was horrifying. We ultimately found new flights, but very expensive and out of the way. This was entirely their fault, I would have never booked a domestic flight connecting to an international flight so close, yet they did not allow me to pick the time. They had our international flight information from the time we made the reservation more than six months in advance. Besides the awful and dangerous return experience, our arrival was also unpleasant. Again, they had our flight information for months. Yet, they booked us on the domestic flight from Male to the resort to be six hours after we arrived. There is nothing to do at or near the Male airport, so we just had to wait six hours and waste an entire day. We got to the resort at night. The domestic flight is on a small, very old and uncomfortable plane. You can't even fit a regular sized backpack in the overhead bin to give you perspective. Like I said, the staff that work day-to-day operations at the resort itself are kind and helpful. They took good care of us during the heavy heavy rain and winds that we encountered for most of our stay. They resort is beautiful and spread across two private islands. However, it was not worth the awful travel experience there and back. I hope to hear from them and receive some sort of compensation for their negligence because it is still hard to wrap our minds around how much money, time, and wellbeing we lost as a result of their choices.

My recommendation is not to stay at this resort, they are terrible with how the deal with customer service issues. I have emailed their directors and not had any responses. Even senior directors don’t get back to you. There are better places to visit and better services. They don’t even have a good beach. Now i will dispute things which i have recordings off and pictures. Worst experiences of my life.

Incredible. The room (water villa) was large and clean with an amazing view (sunset side). The staff were excellent and very helpful with any questions and requests. The food was generally very good: the food was excellent at The Falhumaa (French) and Long Island (Italian), the food was really good with wide variety at the Beach Bars and Dining Rooms. We didn't enjoy the food at Li Bai (Cantonese) despite normally enjoying such cuisine. True luxury

My husband and I came to the Residence for the ultimate wedding, honeymoon, getaway and we were not disappointed. From arrival to departure, we have zero complaints. Excellent hospitality, excellent food and drink options, and endless opportunities for adventure. The sea life will not disappoint, at all! We did the standard all inclusive and stayed in villa 300. Joynal went above and beyond any need or expectation. And truly our entire experience was beyond expectations. We definitely did not feel like strangers. As for our wedding, we had gloomy days that just didn't fit a 'Maldivian ceremony '. There was no worries waiting for the perfect sunshine day. When that day came, it was a dream come true. We are so incredibly thankful and look forward to seeing our friends at the residence again!

We had booked the Residence as the final part of our honeymoon trip for a bit of R&R and it delivered exactly that. We had 4 nights stay which we instantly regretted not booking longer! Yes the travelling does take a while but you forget all of that by the time you arrive on the island. From the offset you are made to feel very welcomed and important. It is the luxury you would expect. We had a water pool villa near the end of the east side jetty which was amazing for the views and watching the ocean and sea life. We did hear that the far side of the island villas get more sealife from their villa than what we did which my partner was gutted about. But that didn't affect our stay! Huge villas with everything you need really. The staff are wonderfully attentive and couldn't do more for you. The food was great, for a small resort we thought there was great choice, although the dinning room on the other island did have better choice. The French restaurant was lovely however on the night we visited it was very slow service - we had this included in our package however if it was not included it seemed quite expensive. The resort itself is well looked after, all staff are busy and look after you well. Highly recommended and hopefully come back to visit soon!
