Lovely island! The sea of pluses and there is practically nothing to complain about) The island is quite large, but in principle you can walk around in 15-20 minutes. A lot of people rest here, but there is no such thing for someone to directly interfere with each other. Everyone is dispersed in different places.

Lovely island! The sea of pluses and there is practically nothing to complain about) The island is quite large, but in principle you can walk around in 15-20 minutes. A lot of people rest here, but there is no such thing for someone to directly interfere with each other. Everyone is dispersed in different places. Lots of greenery. There are places that are very secluded. The location of the houses and the rest of the infrastructure is good. The transfer to the hotel takes a maximum of 15 minutes, which I will immediately attribute to a plus. It was fundamental for us that there were no breakwaters around the island; usually, although they do not interfere, they still spoil the impression. Here they are not. Plus ref around the whole island. The reef, of course, is like almost everywhere with dead corals, but it is close to the shore and there are a lot of different animals underwater. Lots of fish right next to the shore. The beach is also not the same everywhere. Some places are wider and some are narrower. There are sun loungers right in the bushes. If you do not take the calculation of the main beach with a cleared bottom where the largest concentration of people, then there are enough sunbeds everywhere. They are not tied to numbers and can be dragged wherever you want. . For example, several times we took the sunbeds into the bushes near the water and got a secluded place. Take your masks and flippers with you here if you want, you can rent it, but it's paid. And swimming shoes will come in handy too. It depends on where to enter the water, but it is better to use it so as not to get hurt. In general, for the beach for the level of the hotel and its price, you can generally put it very well! This is not the first time we have turned to Dmitry Kukin for the selection of a tour. You can easily find this wonderful travel agent by name on the VKontakte social network. There has never been a hotel that he recommends to us that we did not like. So this time) Dima thank you very much! Thanks also to all the staff of the hotel for the warm welcome and care. For those who do not speak English well at the reception, there are Russian-speaking staff who will help resolve any issue. I recommend visiting the spa. Good gym. There is a football field. And of course the tennis court. For families with kids there is a kids club. The food is ok. There are quite a few spicy dishes, but we always found food to our liking. . The only thing is if you are all inclusive, then the choice of cocktails is small, but no one bothers to buy what you like. It will still work out better. We are very pleased with how we rested!

Very spacious. Gorgeous canopy bed. Modern electronics. There is a large wardrobe. The bathroom is clean, toilet, bidet. Bathroom and separate shower in a separate niche. Excellent air conditioning, good furniture. The staff is very attentive cleaning is excellent. There is a pleasant calm atmosphere on the territory. Very nice. The beach is gorgeous and the house reef is fabulous. Be sure to take a mask, even saw sharks and a turtle, and a lot of things. Vodichka fairy tale beauty, soft sand in general bounty) We had all inclusive, so we didn’t bother with food, although there are cafes. The food was excellent, even the sea food was enough. Our stomachs cook well, everything was well received) Price quality is super. . Alcohol is also expensive at prices, but this is already a nuance) From entertainment there is tennis, diving, a gym, table football. Small evening shows. The Internet catches perfectly everywhere and the speed is decent. I can also recommend the spa. From the rest we got everything we wanted, we are very satisfied!

Hotel for families with children. When you get there, you feel like you are in a tropical forest. Greenery is everywhere. Although the territory is small, but everywhere there are turn signals between the bushes, people are almost invisible. Cleanliness and order are maintained throughout the territory, and you don’t even notice when all this is done, the hotel workers are almost invisible.

Hotel for families with children. When you get there, you feel like you are in a tropical forest. Greenery is everywhere. Although the territory is small, but everywhere there are turn signals between the bushes, people are almost invisible. Cleanliness and order are maintained throughout the territory, and you don’t even notice when all this is done, the hotel workers are almost invisible. I also note that the hotel has a wonderful spa. There is an outdoor jacuzzi. And all this is like in the thick of the jungle) Walking around the territory you can see the lizards of children, they are very amusing and by the way they are not dangerous. They won’t even bite) Rooms are two-story houses and one-story, we lived in a two-story one. The beach came out of the room a few meters and the beach. The beach is fabulous with white sand, you can relax and plunge into the heavenly atmosphere, as it happens in the pictures. The sun loungers are comfortably placed under the trees in the shade. You can drag and drop them wherever you need. The entrance to the water is smooth, but in some places on the beach you will need corals. There are even signs there. The coolest place is near the diving center where you can swim without fear of getting hurt. And we even saw a few cool sharks and there is no need to be afraid of them. And the recommendation to take a mask and flippers is sure to have something to see. The underwater world is very beautiful. Next, I want to draw attention to the food at the hotel. Take all inclusive or at least dinner and breakfast, lunch will not be so expensive. Mostly European dishes or, so to speak, close to European cuisine, but there are also spicy Asian dishes to choose what to eat, but there is a choice. There are a lot of seafood on the menu. All are well prepared and delicious. Especially liked squid, mussels, shrimps. They were generally well prepared. And in conclusion, I will add a few words about the number. The room is spacious, the furniture is not new, there are some scratches but not killed. A small nuance with water in the room they give a little half a liter per person, we had to dial it was not enough. The rooms are cleaned well and without reminders. We hung out all day either on skis or with a mask or just rotted under the palm trees in the shade) In general, this place is a paradise!

I can only say good things about the hotel. By the way, I want to say thanks to Vlad, the tour manager of Unitours, for offering us this hotel from a number of not the most expensive fours and not insisting on booking a five (more expensive and of the same level as Bandos). The hotel really liked the service, food, reef and rooms. They took the standard. Meyueol is good, the atmosphere in the room is cozy. Cleaning every day, high quality. The coral reef is beautiful. In Sharm, though, I was more impressed, but here there is something to admire in the depths of the ocean. The sand is white, just heaven. The food is good, at the level of the top five of a good five-star hotel. There are restaurants that serve lunch and dinner.

It rained in June. First at lunchtime, at night. Then they became impudent and began to pour at the most excellent hours for sunbathing and swimming. They say that it is better to go to the Maldives from September to December. , these tropical rains. A strong wind, palm trees are swaying, pouring, nothing is visible.

It rained in June. First at lunchtime, at night. Then they became impudent and began to pour at the most excellent hours for sunbathing and swimming. They say that it is better to go to the Maldives from September to December. , these tropical rains. A strong wind, palm trees are swaying, pouring, nothing is visible. It seems that now the roof will be torn off the bungalow and carried away by a wave into the endless waters.
Despite the weather, sometimes it was possible to sunbathe, you can always swim in general, even in the rain. The pools are good. Especially for children, with a large fountain ball in the center. Towels are given here or you can take green ones in the room. there were enough places, because there were few people.
In general, from the public - mostly Chinese-Japanese (wonderful-s-s) or veiled women with children or husbands.
The Maldivians themselves are a copy of the Muscovites: they don’t smile, they do everything through force - it’s hard for them, you know, to work in principle. Then these tourists come in large numbers, serve them, you understand.
We came here directly from Sri Lanka. The monstrous difference with smiling (really, from the heart) and efficient Sri Lankans at first plunged me into a small stop, but then I relaxed and stopped paying attention to them.
On the territory there is a diving club, bars, a children's club. Foreign mothers left children for a long time, even babies. But the club is not bad.
Nobody diligently engaged in sports from tourists, although there are many things for this business.
Well, how can you sit in the sports center if there is this amazing white sand and an empty beach right at the exit from the room? ! You just take a mug of coffee, you leave your house, and after 3 steps - sun loungers, sand, sea...
Personally, I, a mother with two small children and a grandmother, was not bored. My husband got bored at the end, but I think he missed diving. There is entertainment. Crab races for children are very cool, you can experience adrenaline. also fun - the choice of songs for Russians - both adults and children - is huge. My daughter was heard all over the island.
The food is normal. You have to buy water in the restaurant. Therefore, when they bring you here on a boat and offer you bottled water, take more. They also provide water in the rooms.
The souvenir shop pleases with its variety of goods and indecently high prices for them. But, if you really want something, you can take something with you as a keepsake. Painted coconuts and artists sitting right in the store who paint you or your child with such masterpieces are impressive, right sorry to wash afterwards.
Finally, I’ll write about the main problem of rest on the island - MOSQUITOES!!!!! ! For 5 days they ate me up. Small, nasty, nasty. You can’t hear them at night. feet, hands. Smudges don’t save them. They don’t give out all kinds of fumitoxes at night. But they fly, apparently from the bathroom, where there is no glass in the windows. It was not always possible to close the doors.
Ask questions, do not be shy. Anna.

The hotel is excellent, the staff is friendly, and the nature and the ocean are pleasing to the eye.
Now more details. We were at the end of April until the beginning of May. Travel agency Transaerotours, flew respectively by a transaero flight, the delay at departure was about 40 minutes, and when they returned about an hour (excellent for a charter). The flight was normal (about 9 hours), the food was tolerable, practically did not shake, rating 4+. Transfer: upon arrival, they met the luggage to the boat, on departure, they also met at the boat, they showed the check-in counters, they brought the luggage to them.
Customs: alcohol is taken away (I don’t know how it was for you, but for me it was a matter of principle to bring something) back in Moscow I bought a small bottle of Pepsi, made a hole in the bottom, poured Pepsi, heated the lid in boiling water and carefully removed it so that the tear-off ring was not damaged (not for everyone bottles, this method is suitable, it is more reliable to cut the neck of the bottle with the help of wire cutters), I bought a two-liter Pepsi, poured a liter from it and poured whiskey there, closed it with a previously removed cap with a ring. The bottle was like from a store, I threw it into my luggage and, to distract attention, a couple of plastic bottles of drinking water. Everything went off with a bang, even the luggage did not open at customs. I think a more reliable option with juice packaging, but it would take more time.
The hotel itself is a fabulously green place, from edible bananas, mangoes, sea coconuts and some other water rose, if I understand correctly, it is quite edible and coconut palms are everywhere, sometimes I recommend looking up in a strong wind.
The service is excellent, they never burst into the room in the morning and do not wake up with their cleaning, they tactfully wait not far. a bunch of different towels for all occasions are changed once a day, the bed is made twice. Restaurants are friendly and welcoming.
By the way, if you dine at your own expense, excellent cuisine! Some of the same dishes were eaten in a common restaurant and a separate one - there is a difference. Dinner for two averages $40-60.
The food in common restaurants is not to say that there is a great variety (we probably snickered), but you won’t leave hungry.
For some reason, we were not settled in a standart room, but a Deluxe room, it is much larger than the standard one, the only minus is the music thumps slightly in the evening, it didn’t bother me, but my girlfriend didn’t really like it.
A big plus is the tea facilities in the rooms, it is sometimes very nice to drink tea or coffee without running to restaurants, but sitting on your terrace. Safe in the room is free of charge.
Animals: parrots, bats or foxes, but I didn’t understand large ones, lizards, herons, and small birds. From fish sharks, stingrays, moray eels and other fish of all stripes and colors, they can be seen with an ordinary mask and snorkel, for turtles you have to scuba dive. Well, crabs.
There were almost no Russians before May. On May holidays, about 15-20% of tourists were Russians.
Okay, I would like to write a lot more, but .....bottom line: the hotel and the rest are just great, you won’t regret a trip.
