Medhufaru Trip

This wasnt just a resort. It was an experience! We went with the over water villa which had a private pool and snorkeling access via a stair case from the patio. We had the all inclusive and they meant just that. Mini bar was also included. If you want to keep the bill fown better go all inclusive. Had to take a sea plane which is seperate round trip and will chrge extra for weight so pack light. There are some exclusions but it will be more than enough. Our stay also included the bike rental to get around but there is a shuttle and a on call buggy service free of charge If you are not into cycling. Its two islands that you can roam and enjoy. We ate at the Uni restaurant which had a beatiful view and great food at a resonable price. The exclusive restaurants are not all inclusive but the alcoholic/ non alcoholic remained all inclusive. And you need reservations unlike the buffet locations. The Buffet have themed nights ever other night. Seafood night was absolutely amazing. The resort is everything and more you see in videos and pictures. Abdullah was our assigned guide that was there to help schedule things and ensure our questions was answered. He as amazing. From the elcome to the departure it exceeded all expectations. We snorkeled everday and saw all kinds of wild life. If you worry about swiming they have life jackets in the room so that you can still enjoy and it is fairly shallow around your bungalow so standing and walking is an option as well.

the island is well taken care of, Razib our cleaner was fantastic. the snorkeling and wildlife was amazing

Easily accessible by 15-20 minute speedboat transfer. Warm hospitality and impeccable service. Breakfast menus change each day. Dinner inclusion in half-board is different each night so get to try different cuisine. Same butler (Mr/Ms Friday) throughout the entire stay which is great. Crystal clear turquoise water, very beautiful. Highly recommended and I would love to return to Gili in the near future.

This place is a perfect, quiet piece of paradise. Expertly staffed and as exquisitely barefoot chic as anyone could hope for.

A Stunning Island with Room for Improvement – Honest Review of Kandima Maldives We recently stayed at Kandima Maldives and, while the island itself is absolutely stunning and the surroundings nothing short of paradise, there were unfortunately several aspects of our stay that left us feeling disappointed – especially considering the amount we spent. Let’s start with the positives: The setting is truly breathtaking – turquoise waters, white sands, and beautifully maintained grounds. Our accommodation was comfortable and well-designed, and the staff were generally friendly and professional. The food was delicious, with a good variety across restaurants, and the resort offered a good mix of activities and relaxation. However, as beautiful as the island is, there are definitely areas where Kandima falls short – especially when it comes to value for money and customer experience. Firstly, everything is priced without tax and service charges. You’ll be quoted a price, but then a 10% tax and a non-negotiable 16% service charge are added on top – which means you’re paying an additional 26% on everything. This significantly inflates costs. We were on a bed and breakfast package and in hindsight, we really should have opted for all-inclusive. Prices on the island are extortionate – $9 for a Coke, $9++ for a beer, and simple lunches or dinners quickly rack up. We ended up spending close to $3,000 just on food and drinks over the course of our stay. When we enquired about switching
