Kudadoo Maldives Private Island – Luxury All Inclusive

This is a very small resort, with exceptional service. You are assigned a concierge with access via WhatsApp and anything you ask for, they seem to have. There’s an amazing wine cellar and a great cheese cave, free massages, private yoga sessions, etc. I got a pizza with black truffles and was shocked when they had my favorite Brunello in stock. I love mangosteen and I think we ate a few dozen. The rooms are great, very private with great views. One day, we had a private breakfast on an adjacent island in an underwater aquarium. I booked this in conjunction with a trip to Singapore and made two mistakes. First, it was a bit rainy. I’ll go directly next time at a drier time of year. Also, I didn’t book the private direct plane, but a plane shared with other guests including an adjacent resort. Not a terrible flight, but I prefer things in my timetable. So, expect a return visit.

This place blows me away with the incredible service every time! My butler, Shiham is like a genie in a bottle. Always attentive and knows what I want before I even think about it. I wish I could take him with me. ! The Sommelier gave us an amazing wine and cheese experience, whos passion for his work made the whole experience amazing The General Manager always greets us with a warm and friendly attitude. ! The Water Sports Guy (forgot his name) was awesome, he stuck by me until I perfected Flyboarding, and always found sharks and dolphins for us to watch. Ranjan the bartender made the most amazing drinks and always kept my glass filled. Nigam was an amazing waiter who always got our orders right to perfection. The massage Staff gave us daily massages that I wish I could take them home! Everyone knew our names as if we were the only ones on the island. Kudadoo Private Island is truly a slice of paradise! From the moment we arrived, we were treated like royalty. The personalized service is unmatched – every staff member went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. The luxurious overwater villas are breathtaking, offering stunning ocean views and complete privacy. The island's "Anything, Anytime, Anywhere" concept is a game-changer – whether it's a gourmet meal, a spa treatment, or an adventure, they deliver it with effortless perfection. The food is world-class, with fresh, locally sourced ingredients and a wide range of culinary delights. The private island's sustainability efforts are also commendable, from solar-powered energy to eco-friendly initiatives, showing their commitment to preserving this pristine environment. Kudadoo isn't just a vacation; it's a transformative experience. We left feeling refreshed, pampered, and already planning our return! Highly recommended for anyone seeking unparalleled luxury and serenity. Kudadoo is truly in a league of its own!

Kudadoo is so wonderful! We spent an excellent and unforgettable holiday on the island. The whole island is very quiet which makes me feel private. The food is really nice and has too many choices!( Trust me I'm Chinese) We had a lot of activities like handline fishing, snorkelling for manta rays, scuba diving, jet ski and so on. Our butler Naarjy is passionate and experienced. He arranged everything clearly and give us a quick response when we have requests. Also, he prepared a birthday surprise for me. Our diving instructor Cole is very talkative and enthusiastic. We spent three divings together and he always protected us under the sea. The general manager Akira and other stuffs are all very nice. When we met Akira, he would have a chat with us. Hope to spend my future holiday in Kudadoo again!

We have already visited Kudadoo 3 times and would definitely like to come back. We have also visited many other luxury resorts and I dare say that Kudadoo is at the top of the TOP resorts in the Maldives. The concept of this resort is very unique - anything - anytime - everywhere, you won't find such a concept anywhere else. Kudadoo has only 15 water villas and no beach villas. It's not for beach villa lovers, but we don't mind because we prefer water villas and they provide more privacy for guests. It is not an island that has the prettiest lagoon or the prettiest beaches, although you can definitely find beautiful places with a nice beach and ocean view. Also here in 2024, breakwaters were added around the beaches, which may bother some people - on the other hand, it is a mini island and erosion is a problem for all resorts, and even more so for these small islands, so the installation of breakwaters is understandable. However, this resort is all about its service and making you feel like a VIP guest. The price of this resort includes everything - great quality wines, cocktails, perfect gastro - isn't foie grass on the menu? No problem, we'll get it! And they really get everything when it's in their power. Also included in the price are massages, private diving, a trip to the sandbank, a trip to look for manta rays, a trip on jet skis and other activities that are normally charged at other resorts. Excursions and the daily schedule must be planned in advance, but if you want to change the plans, you can, you just need to do it in time, because there are other guests in the resort who also have a planned schedule and there may not always be a place when you want. That's why I recommend that you think about all the activities you want to try before arriving at the resort and plan them in advance, and feel free to write this schedule in advance to your butler, who will enter everything into the system. Villas: they are very well designed, have a modern design and are very cozy. The entrance from the villas is directly on the reef. Snorkeling: you can snorkel around the whole island and the reef is very nice. There are a lot of beautiful corals, anemones and you will also meet sharks, rays, lionfish, a school of fish or a turtle. Food: generally great. If you don't find something you want on the menu, they will try to prepare a meal for you on request. Something could probably be improved - for example, the food at Raffles or Milaidhoo tasted a little better to me. But it's more about taste preferences, because the food is of high quality and always fresh. However, even this resort has its faults - FLIES from the neighboring island Felivaru, where is fish processing factory. When there is no wind, there are flies everywhere in the villa, in the restaurant, and it is really very annoying. It would certainly be necessary to install some fly repellents in villas and restaurants - cinnamon as an air freshener or some lavender, eucalyptus, pepper

Highly recommended. Best food we had in the Maledives (even beating Cheval Blanc). Superb staff, extremely good bar and wine/drinks Extremely private. Much more low-key, non-Instagram crows vs. e.g. Soneva properties. Also the first one with proper solar arrays in the Maledives where sustainability is not just a buzz word.
