In one word - a vacation that is remembered! Well, not for life, but for a year - for sure. I immediately want to earn money and more in order to afford such a trip again, and so that the hotel is certainly no worse. Although who knows, maybe in simpler hotels, too, everything is not so bad)) The Maldives is a heavenly place. Just what the doctor ordered, just right for me. When I was so tired that I didn’t want anything or anyone. There was only one desire - silence, nature, switching and relaxation. All this here - in abundance. Rest 100%. After a couple of days, you get involved and start to really come by 5 pm to watch the sunset, feed the skates, sit in the bar and just stupidly enjoy it all. Everything is nearby, everything is close, there are not many people, you can’t hear anyone, the staff is not intrusive. In general, complete relaxation. And now - in order.
Flight. Worthy. Aeroflot regular schedule. Everything is civilized and decently beaten "Transaero" for sure. The path is long, but you can endure it. Upon arrival, the customs office, where alcohol is taken away. I knew and didn't. A couple of compatriots were taken away. By the way, the hotel has wine. But expensive. The toad choked. I had to learn how to relax without alcohol, and it seems that I even succeeded))
Travel agency. The operator was ICStravel, the tour was bought at the agency, booked, confirmed, given the documents, no problem. Actually, that's probably all. Since at the exit from the airport in the Maldives they are met by the hotels themselves. A guy in the uniform of our hotel gathered all those who came there on vacation, but there weren’t many people - 6 people, took us to the boat and after 15 minutes we had already sailed to the island.

Excursions are also as if from the hotel. Although I can’t say for sure, we took only a couple - fishing and Male, the capital. Fishing was fun, nothing was caught, and then local boys came to the rescue. With their help, I caught as many as 4 fish, which we then ate all the next day)) Indeed, they were delivered to the hotel, cooked and brought to us for lunch.
Excursion to Male - as it turned out, just a craft of the local population. The same hotel boat brings you to the island where Male is located. You disembark - you are immediately picked up by a local type of guide. Who is experienced - immediately refused. And who for the first time - at first does not understand and goes with this guide. There is nothing special to watch, and the level of English among the locals is understandable. Therefore, the excursion is purely thesis. This is something. This is something. They show the park, the presidential palace and the market. In fact, everything. For about 20 minutes. Then he asks for tea, of course. That's what they live. The market is truly amazing. Sea of ​ ​ fish and insanely cheap. Tuna for a dollar a piece. Fruits, spices. Here, by the way, it is better to buy souvenirs, Not in the market, but in the capital, of course. The theme is the sea and fish, mostly.
Hotel. I liked it. My husband and I have no complaints. Although the level of comfort for us is certainly important. Here it is clear - 5 * and even deluxe. Nothing to complain about. The island is not very big, but no one interferes with anyone. We lived in a separate bungalow by the water. And there is also a house-building, there are standard rooms, as I understand it. There is a pool, passed it on the way to the restaurant. Receptionist, Russian girl works. Either Olga, or Natalya, flew out of my head. Everything will tell you what and how and what you can use. Souvenir shop. Dive center. There is a SPA. More about him.
The SPA is located on a small island, you reach it as if by water. Romantic. The prices are crazy, which is a pity. The massages are great. Here I learned what Balinese technique is. Sooo nice movement along the muscles. My next trip will definitely be in Bali!! ! If the prices did not bite, we would go there every day. And so - once tried and that's enough)))

Entertainment. Basically, they are not here. Evening feeding of stingrays, perhaps. Well, tours. And that's it. So they went to bed early. But sleep and rest))
Food. Everything is delicious. They set up a table for you for breakfast. One place for breakfast. For dinner - you can choose, either in the main restaurant, or in others, for an additional fee. We visited, of course, everything. The last dinner, before leaving, was immediately planned to be a candlelight dinner on the shore. Noted, so to speak))
Number. Above all praise! Spacious, strong, everything is brand new. Especially liked the shower in the garden. It turned out that taking a shower in the open air is so cool....
Sea. Or the ocean - perhaps that's more correct? Amazing… Very warm comfortable water. Bathed a lot. Even - a lot! They didn't get out of the water. There are no problems with sunbeds at all. There are enough of them all. Even in excess. The people don't crowd. Nobody bothers anyone. Here it is, the charm of an expensive holiday! The reef at the hotel, as we were enlightened, is weak. But we are not divers, and we didn’t care)) It was already amazing that colored fish, stingrays, were swimming, and all this was next to you.
That's all. Who else suddenly doubts - do not hesitate. It's really cool there. Actually THERE, in the Maldives...
