"Pros: Overall I have to say I am still blown away by the property and mostly the staff working there.
/ The property has pretty much two sides, one that has less beach (during higher tides) but some reef in the water whivh is perfect for snorkeling- facing the front and starting in front of the beach villas/beach-pool villas and the second side which is an almost deserted looking beach on the other side of a small palm forest.
/ We probably had the most relaxing arrival ever at the Property - beeing seated with some coconut water while the staff was taking care of our check in and escorted us to the villa.
/ The staff did take care of us from having someone at the airport pivking us up, taking care of all of our checkin in the TMA waterplane, putting us into the bus for the TMA lounge. Same for the way back - frontdesk was taking care that there was someone at the airport who would escort us until security, enauring a super smooth experience.
/ The space is really big for the amount of villas on the island so we had days where we met maybe a handful of people only and most of time we met not a single person
/ Cleanlyness is amazing - minimum 2x a day our room was made, come rain or sun. No trash whatsoever at any point on the island and cristalclear water full of fish.
/ The island is moat closely located to luxury and ultra luxury resorts such as Diamond and Conrad, so you know what you get in terms of nature and water quality …
Cons: I feel there is two sides to this section, so I want to give one point that I feel can be made better but also adress some concerned mentioned by other travellers
/ If anything I would suggest to talk more to guests about all that you do. I was so happy about all you took care of from our arrival to the depature, but it would have helped if everyone would have been more proactive about sharing what is going on. Example: Our waterplane was delayed and we were afraid we would miss our flight. The staff aranged that we would be escorted in the male airport to security in seconds, picked up right at the bus. Absolutly perfect! But pls let me know about this in advance so I dont need to worry.
As for comments from other travellers:
/ Yes, the front beach has some plastic bags that act as stabilization for this sand island not to be washed away… Thats not plastic trash floating freely. No issue whatsoever as there are plenty of other beaches just meters away which dont need stabilization.
/ Windsurfing is obv. not available - please refer to e.g. Dive Club Maldives for whats available. However snorkeling, diving and even diving certificates are totally doable and depensing on the season whaleshark diving, turtle diving, manta diving… Prices seem fine to me - takkng into consideration that it is in the Maldives.
/ There are indeed quite some mosquitos but the property takes all measurements to shield guests. From compliemntary mosquito repellent to2x a day mosquito poisoning. I definetly felt I was bitten much less than in many other countries.
/ Meals are really up to what you expect. You are after all in the middle of the indian ocean. I personally was super happy and would argue for anywhere up to 10 days you will find more than enough different meals at pretty conveniemt priving (somewhat similar to what you will pay in northern europe in pricing)" ~Raphael
