Magical dream of an island! From the moment we arrived off the speed boat, we feel on love. Walking down the jetty through to the bar for welcome drinks and to check in. Then shown we're our beach villa was we was beaming at what we could see. Our villa was stunning with our own little beach there was really nothing we could have wanted more. Beautiful room, with an outdoor shower was exciting and what was next and we wasn't disappointed. We had lunch and it was beautiful, fresh fish and lots of local dishes to choose from (where not fussy eaters). We settled in to life on the island well, friendly kids staff. One day on our beach villa we sat on the verandah and a man had shot up a tree and brought down coconuts. See us he brought us 2 over and cut them open so we could have coconut water. Another day the same man, popped his heas round and brought us coconuts to eat. Was great to watch him and his machete cut them up. Entertainment wasn't the best, movie night cancelled both times due to technical problems. But didn't spoil our stay. At 7pm every night, they fed the sharks and let you do it too if you ask. Was really something to see. The free trips were fabulous, wish we had done the line fishing and snorkeling at sea more. We also paid for dolphin watching and wasn't disappointed, what felt like 50 dolphins swam alongside out boat. Beautiful. Snorkeling around the island is a must we done this most days with snorkels we took with us. Wish we had flippers and a go pro. A few things seemed a bit off like we wanted go book dinner on the beach with the fish we had caught but they want to charge us and extra $50 each plus the set meal fee (even though we was all inclusive) worked our £300. We declined and gad our fish in the restaurant which was delicious. Overall we loved it and we will be back as soon as we can with a go pro and flippers this time. Thank you all at Medhufushi Island and especially our chef Jowel! He was amazing and always smiling xxxx
