                  “Stunning resort”

                  Our overwater bungalow was stunning. We snorkelled from our stairs and saw the most beautiful fish. Our sea plane transfer was disorganised. We were still waiting for confirmation details and only received them at 10pm the night prior to our arrival. Then it was delayed 3 hours. Lots of German tourists were angry as they were waiting for hours. The food at the restaurant looked great but was disappointing. We paid for half board which included breakfast and dinner then had to pay an extra $99 US for the Christmas dinner which was similar to the buffet style that was normally served but with more options. You also had to pay for water whilst dining. Given the pricing of the accommodation, I think a Lunch voucher or drink voucher would have been ideal given we had paid for the dinner component. Also the restaurant has no air conditioning. So most guests were in and out very quickly. We paid for a boat trip to swim with the manta rays which was fantastic but had to pay to hire the snorkel gear and life vest. On our final night we were given a bottle of wine at 10pm without a bottle opener. It would have been nice on the first night with a bottle opener, not on our last.

                  “Waterfront bungalow room with breakfast and dinner buffet included.”

                  Stayed here for three nights, the atmosphere is nice and overall it's worth the money spent. If you want to book a tour trip, you should contact the accommodation in advance because sometimes on the dates we check in, the tours may be fully booked, and we might end up just staying at the accommodation. The staff provided good service, always smiling and greeting us. I have two complaints: one is that some staff at the bar touched customers, and personally, I didn't like this situation. I don't know if it's their custom or if I'm overthinking, but I was a bit scared when they grabbed my arm, especially since I was with my two daughters. The second complaint is that the bathroom didn't have a bidet, and they were a bit stingy on the shower cream and shampoo, but overall it was okay.

                  “Good value hotel in the heart of atoll.”

                  In overall we enjoyed staying in a hotel. It was our first water bungalo experience and was fantastic. We were pleased to find how good the local buffet restaraunt is. Among things we didn't really like: - Safari island is located on a beatuful atolll however it's sad to say this - corals are like 90% dead. Marine life is still there, but I only can predict that it will get worse every year - Yes, global warming is happening and it's a general issue not only to Maldives but I think the hotel impacted negatively a lot too. When I was snorkeling I have found that sewage pipe was leaking and dirty water was just released on a surface poisoning corals and fish. You could see how big is the difference in water up and down the current in that place from transparent blue to almost like a milk water.. This pipe is full of patches so I assume this was a regular problem happening from time to time - To my opinion the hotel is too much focused on earning and this impacts tourists comfort. Like for example you get for free 0.5L of water, the rest you have to buy yourselfes from a bar for 5USD per bottle. But it's not only about the price - you have to always watch for your water stock in the room because if you run out of water - you need to walk all the way to the bar to get some. I would prefer that water is just supplied in the room in the amount I would wish to use. Same for the dinner, in another hotels on Madlives you get water for free served by a waiter which is inluded in the buffet price but here you have to buy a plastic bottle ( and serve it yourselfes! ) - Shower was always cold for like first 5 minutes, so we had to waste a lot of water till the moment it gets at least warm.. - only a small shower gel bottle ( 10 ml probably ). For a family of 3 people when we do snorkeling few times a day this amount is not enough - we regret that we didn't take own shower gel.. So in conclusion - this is still a very great place to spend your vacation, but do not expect much from point of a service if visiting this place. You may not be treated as a special guest. Meanwhile we liked the presonnel - everyone was very friendly and hospitale.

                  “I went on a honeymoon trip.”

                  I think this was the best option for the price. There weren't many guests, so it felt somewhat private, the staff was friendly, and the underwater environment was great. There were a lot of sharks and fish near the beach close to the resort. I stayed in Beach 4 and Water 3, both were very attractive, especially the Beach Villa which exceeded my expectations in satisfaction, haha. There were lots of animal friends like lizards, hermit crabs, and various birds at the accommodation, so I had a great time for 4 days in the Beach Villa. What I wish was different is that the whale shark tour is currently not operating, so I couldn't see them, and the room condition isn't extremely good, but one must take the price into account. The countless stars that seemed to pour down at night, and even though it was the rainy season, perhaps due to being close to the equator, it only rained for an hour during the week which was perfect. I mentioned that it was for a honeymoon to the resort and received a bed decoration and beach dinner, and other things like that. It was such a great place to stay that I would be willing to go back again.

                  “Amazing snorkeling ”

                  When snorkeling you can see turtles, black and white tip sharks, eagle rays. Food in the restaurant, is very good, but dinner first start 19.30, which we sought was to late. You can be unlucky and wait long time for your flight, from Male airport to the resort if you don't travel in group. We waited 4 hours, and 15 minutes before the flight we told that we could not bring our luggage, we didn't have overweight, so I didn't understand why couldn't bring it.
