Kooddoo Harbor

From the moment we found the Cinnamon representatives at Malé airport to take us to our seaplane, we didn't have to think for ourselves for the remainder of one of the most relaxing weeks ever. The staff at the resort were incredibly welcoming and friendly throughout our stay. The buffet food was varied and plentiful; every meal also had at least one station with a chef to make you, depending on the mealtime, custom eggs, pasta dishes, stirfys, plus a special station that would change daily, from burgers to pizza to tacos, curries, fresh catches, bbq'd meats, etc. We enjoyed the adults only aspect and appreciated the peaceful atmosphere all over the resort. Even the architecture was calming; the overwater villas with their white sail rooves and the sweeping pathways across the reef all felt so natural with the white sand and palms and added a tremendous feeling of peace. The other resorts we saw from the seaplane just didn't look quite as good! Our overwater villa was just as fantastic as the pictures advertising it. We spent several hours on our private deck, lazing in the floor hammock, tanning on the loungers or just sitting on the edge, watching the marine life in the shallows from above. On one of the days, we went on one of the free excursions to go snorkelling in deeper waters; special thanks and admiration to the captain of the boat, who dove to the bottom of the reef to retrieve a snorkel mask one of us had dropped. Must have been at least 6 meters. A true hero.

We had the most amazing stay at Siyam World Maldives and honestly can’t fault it. From the moment we arrived at the airport, everything was seamless and well organised. A huge highlight for us was having our own hotel representative. We were assigned Toga who was absolutely amazing. His communication was excellent throughout our stay, and he handled everything for us effortlessly. He checked in with us regularly, and sorted anything we wanted or were interested in without us ever having to worry. He truly made our holiday stress-free. The island itself has loads to do with some paid water activities, which was perfect. We were especially impressed with the endless food choices, no matter the time of day – there was always something available and plenty of options for everyone. The evening entertainment was really enjoyable, the beaches were spotless, and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming at all times. Every member of staff went out of their way to make us feel comfortable and looked after. This was a truly special holiday and one we’ll always remember. We will definitely be visiting again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this hotel to anyone considering the Maldives.

Always kept the room clean and very friendly and helpful staff
