Joy Island Maldives by Cocoon Collection

New resort on a paradise island. Great beach, liked the guys in water sports - all the equipment is new, working and the staff themselves are pleasant to talk to. The staff in the main restaurant is very smiling. They greet you with drums and see you off wonderfully, very atmospheric. Lots of food, good choice, delicious tuna, sometimes good meat. A lot of everything is included in the meal plan, for us it was even too much. The room is very hot, you can't live without air conditioning. We were at other resorts - there the villas have higher roofs and thatch on top, protecting the villa from overheating. This is not the case here, the villa is burning hot in the sun. The villa itself is very simple, like a house at a recreation center in Russia) there was not enough opportunity to connect the phone to the TV, more modern sockets, chargers. The air conditioner in the beach villa hangs opposite the bed, it is almost impossible not to catch a cold. The room includes a lot of drinks, wine. I don't know who can consume so much. As for me, it is a bit excessive. The hotel is new - there is no vegetation yet, it is very hot to move around the island, as there is no shade yet. There are breakwaters on the main beach opposite the beach villa, I did not see them in the photo. In fact, they certainly save you from the waves, but they spoil the frame) for beautiful photos I had to go to the water sports area. But the island is wonderful! Although not big. This is our third resort in the Maldives, I hope to return someday if the resort grows)

The chef in the hotel restaurant is very good and friendly. The nanny at the hotel is very patient and speaks good English. The abilities of hotel housekeepers and managers are very poor. Compared with Chinese housekeepers, they need to be greatly improved. I think the butler and manager of their hotel need to take some continuing education courses, as his ability to be a butler is really poor. I originally booked a water house with a swimming pool for two nights and a beach house with a swimming pool for one night. When I arrived at the hotel after a long journey, they told me that the water house with swimming pool for my first night was fully booked, and they arranged a second room for me, next to it. There were many people of different nationalities checking in, but we were the only Chinese. We felt like we were not taken seriously and our room was given to others. The price of the water house with swimming pool was more expensive than the room we stayed in. The only compensation they gave us was that we used the price difference of the room to buy it. On the second night, we were finally arranged to stay in a water house with a swimming pool, but the most irritating thing was that we were asked to hand over the room at 10:00 in the morning and then transfer to the beach house. I said check-out time was not 12 o'clock? Why do you ask me to hand over the room at 10 o'clock? So why? Wasn't it morning when I checked in yesterday? My child is still sleeping in the room. In addition, there is a lot of garbage on the beach of the hotel. Isn’t the Maldives a beautiful place? Why is it full of garbage? Are these all discharged by the hotel? All made from freshly squeezed orange juice, orange peels and other fruit peels? Also, the hotel towels are yellow and gray, not white?
