Aarah Island

Lovely, bright hotel in a gorgeous location! Stunning views all around. Mainly for a romantic get away. String WiFi but not exactly business friendly. The food is really good! But not worth half-board or full-board prices. No alcohol on this island (Huraa) but there's a day pass to a resort that does. Water activities can be organized, no problem. Best part was the staff for sure! Absolutely warm, attentive and competent. I was treated with respect; like a welcomed guest! There are 2 extra cafes near by if you're looking for a little someone different to eat. And there's an ATM at the pier. The hotel manager will get you set up with a ferry to and from. It's a little disorienting fitting out where to go and when after leaving the airport but it all worked out. There were some leaks and there are several signs of water damage but it's but really a problem. Shower is clean, strong and warm. Windows don't close and there's no bug zappers. Overall, it was really great experience for me.

I had such an amazing stay at Nala by Jawakara Maldives for my birthday trip. The location was absolutely stunning, crystal clear water, beautiful beaches, and the perfect peaceful island atmosphere. The resort itself feels very relaxing, luxurious, and private, especially during sunset. A special thank you to my butler, Mr. Jumaan, for being incredibly helpful and attentive throughout my stay. He went above and beyond in assisting me with everything and always made sure I was comfortable and well taken care of. His kindness, professionalism, and warm hospitality truly made my birthday vacation even more special and memorable. I genuinely appreciate all the effort and excellent service he provided during my time at the resort. The room was clean, comfortable, and beautifully designed. Everything was well maintained and housekeeping did a great job throughout the stay. I also loved how calm and quiet the environment was, making it easy to truly unwind and enjoy the Maldives experience. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful from arrival until departure. Their service made the trip feel extra special and memorable. The amenities were also great, with plenty of activities and beautiful spots around the resort to enjoy. In terms of value, I genuinely feel the experience was worth it for such a memorable birthday vacation. Overall, it was a wonderful stay and I would definitely love to come back again.
