The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Very nice Overwater Villa

I stayed in one of the overwater pool villas, and it was simply amazing! The villa was spacious and exquisitely designed, offering stunning views of the turquoise lagoon. I loved having direct access to the water for snorkeling whenever I desired. The privacy was unparalleled, and the luxury of my own pool made it even more special. It truly felt like a slice of paradise.

Gourmet Culinary Experience

The dining options at the resort exceeded my expectations! I indulged in diverse cuisines at various restaurants, from the exquisite Japanese dishes at Umi to the mouthwatering seafood at Moodhu Grill, which had the most amazing views. The buffet at the main restaurant was always a delight, with a wonderful array of dishes from around the world. I was particularly impressed by the fresh sushi and the exquisite curries!

Serene Spa Retreat

My experience at the spa was nothing short of luxurious. I enjoyed a couple's massage with my partner, which was incredibly relaxing and set in a serene atmosphere. The spa pool area was perfect for unwinding afterward with a cup of herbal tea. It was so rejuvenating, and I left feeling entirely refreshed.

Diving with Marine Life

The diving opportunities at the resort were very nice! I took a diving course with experienced instructors who made the whole experience enjoyable and safe. I got to swim with mantas and even spotted a few whale sharks. It was an adventure that I will remember forever, and the coral reefs were beautiful despite the challenges faced by marine life.
