5-Star Hotels in Kaafu Atoll, Maldives

The good and the not-so-good: Good: very close to the airport, big island (bigger than many other resort islands in the Mals), very good for snorkeling (you will see lots of fish, and even turtles ), services are great. Lots of land & water activities eg. Tennis, badminton, table tennis, kayak. You will have a host who will look after you during your stay. The not-so-good: some rooms may have out of date furniture, food could be boring if you stay there long time. Airport transfer is expensive and you don’t have any other options but use it. The must try: Water villa, Snorkelling around the island, their Stingray snorkeling tour

We chose the ocean water villa to celebrate my wife’s birthday. The positive side, the resort provided a lovely small cake for the occasion, arranged a photo session with a photographer and the food and drinks were delicious. The resort itself was spotless, and our host (Osama) was excellent, addressing all of our questions and a great guy! Major downside was the lack of privacy; the key reason we booked the ocean water villa was for privacy. Despite the website stating that drones are not allowed, drones were consistently used throughout the resort. One drone came within a few meters of our room and recorded us on the balcony and inside the room, clearly violating our privacy (see pictures, can't upload videos). I called the front desk who said they will let security know & later that day , another drone was hovering near the beach, recording the area again. I spoke to one of the workers, who said they would inform the front desk, but I could see the drone operator from the other side of the venue and resort staff stood nearby without taking any action for breach the rule. The frequent drone usage really compromised the privacy, especially in the premium rooms and was quite loud. I would recommend opting for a more basic room or venue if privacy is important to you. I understand that the resort is beautiful and drone footage captures it wonderfully, but the resort should consider allowing recording only at specific times and in designated areas, under supervision, to ensure privacy is respected and not compromised. That said, aside from the drone issue, the resort is lovely and conveniently close to the airport.

**Review: Family Stay at Sheraton Full Moon Maldives Resort** Our family recently stayed at the Sheraton Full Moon Maldives Resort, and it was an unforgettable experience. Despite being an older resort, the property is impeccably maintained, thanks to the dedicated and professional team. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that customer satisfaction is a top priority here. The service exceeded all our expectations, with every staff member going above and beyond to ensure our comfort and enjoyment. One of the highlights of our trip was completing the PADI Advanced Open Water course. Instructor Mohammad Amaan was exceptional. His extensive experience and superb guidance made the dives not only educational but also incredibly enjoyable. His expertise and passion for diving truly enhanced our experience. Overall, the Sheraton Full Moon Maldives Resort offers a perfect blend of relaxation, adventure, and outstanding service. We highly recommend this resort for families looking for a memorable vacation in the Maldives.

the island is small but we we see variety of fish ,small shark, Manta Ray, we went snorkeling along the trench, fish groups there! despite the coral are dead, the ocean is beatiful, relatively clean and limpid; people there friendly, service good and efficient, breakfust also delivious and sorts covers a wide range of food; sedfood is seldom; others are very good, also the pizza very tasty. the island is suit for me since it is my first time come to maldives, when we come for annual leave within Christmas and New year days; the hotel arrange us at very calm place, I even saw the captain of an airplane in uniform one day night for 1day stay at my neighbor next door; I like Malahini very much! the lovely people , the seashore view, the sky when at night the twlinking stars so near when you look up. i will be back beatiful Maldives!

I visited Maldives for the second time and took a short trip to Velassaru with my 3-year-old baby. I had another wonderful time. Hygiene: I stayed in a sand house for 2 nights. Every day, the staff would take the initiative to ask if it was cleaned. The guy cleaned very carefully. I like his work attitude. Facilities: Because of the rainy season, the wind and waves were very strong. I originally planned to experience the Japanese restaurant Teppanyaki, haha, but it was closed on Sunday night. I didn’t make an appointment at other restaurants and couldn’t eat. I could only have a buffet dinner in the main restaurant. I want to praise Velassaru’s buffet. I personally feel it is still very good. It is more suitable for my taste than the previous one in Xiya Family. Haha, I didn’t get to eat the ice cream twice a day around the island. At that time, the children were either sleeping or digging in the sand, and they didn’t give me a chance to eat at all. Environment: The lagoon is super beautiful. It rained a little before going to the island and I was worried that the whole journey would be rainy. Fortunately, it was sunny the next day, and the photos were also very good, haha. Service: The staff on the island are very enthusiastic. They will say hello and tease the children when they meet.

The water house is really good, the room facilities and services are top-notch. There is a piece of glass on the floor inside the room to see the sea below. Each water house has a small pool of infinity, perfect for taking pictures. The sea is also very clear, there are many coral reefs, and there are many fish. You can see a lot from the room, and the snorkeling equipment hotel is free. The beach here seems to be very good, but it is a pity that I only stayed for one night and didn't go. There are two restaurants on the island, one Japanese restaurant needs an appointment, the other western restaurant does not need to make an appointment, and the production is not bad, but it is relatively simple, basically a main course of 20-30 dollars. Reservations are available as early as possible, and other meals can be ordered at the restaurant. Breakfast must be praised, the butler can be sent to the room, sitting on the terrace looking at the beautiful sea, leisurely to eat. There are many stars in the evening, very beautiful. Overall, an island with good value for money, not far from Male, the airport transportation fee of 130 dollars a room is slightly more expensive. The island is relatively small. After walking for 15 minutes, it is recommended to play for 2-3 days. It is boring to live again. The island is beautiful.

We had an unforgettable stay at the resort! The excellent room service, especially thanks to Ahu, made our experience exceptional. The food was delicious, with the tiramisu being the best we've ever had and the chocolate night an excellent touch. The handmade ravioli was exquisite, and the prosecco sent to our room was the perfect finishing touch. All these wonderful details made our stay truly memorable. We can't wait to return!

We went to the resort for our Honeymoon, it was amazing our stay at Coco Bodu Hithi, the island just beautiful and incredibly romantic. We originally booked a Water Villa but upon arrival, we were upgraded to an Escape Water Villa (a lovely surprise). The bed was huge and had the softest sheets imaginable, the view from our bedroom overlooking the ocean was divine, the indoor bathtub was two was amazing and we loved our own private pool. The villa over water is perfect, a few meters snorkeling we found baby sharks, rays, lots of different fishes and turtles. The breakfast is very wide and the service was fabulous, unfortunately in November the weather is not so good, but we had very sunny days. Thanks to all staff for everything. We would recommend this hotel to other families and will definitely stay again when we return to the Maldives.

I decided to travel during the National Day holiday and chose this hotel. The hotel provides speedboat transfers, which makes it easy to choose flights. The island is well-equipped, and the gym, water entertainment, dining, and water houses are all beyond my expectations. I recommend this hotel.

Ma Dai returned without looking at the sea, which is true. Vallo Island is a newly opened island, which is a 45-minute speedboat ride from the airport. The island is all-inclusive including food, drink and fun. It has a wealth of activities, including sunset cruise, sunset fishing, snorkeling twice a day, various non-motorized water projects such as kayaking, and other paid motorized water activities, but these are free Is enough for you to play! Let's talk about the room types, there are sand houses, swimming pool sand houses, water houses, swimming pool water houses, I can guarantee that you will be stunned when you enter the house, because it is so great! The room is large and the facilities are good. The waiter cleans it very clean. The mini bar is replenished twice a day. There are various snacks, chocolates, coffee, tea and drinks. See the photos for details. It is also equipped with sunscreen and mosquito repellent lotion. Is it intimate? Finally, let’s talk about eating. The main restaurant has different patterns every day, so you won’t get tired even if the main restaurant is every day, not to mention the seafood restaurant Madai restaurant and the grill restaurant. Every day I will go to the main pool bar to drink juices to bask in the sun. It's so comfortable! All of this is free! ! !

The good and the not-so-good: Good: very close to the airport, big island (bigger than many other resort islands in the Mals), very good for snorkeling (you will see lots of fish, and even turtles ), services are great.
