Sun Siyam Iru Fushi
"Amazing honeymoon destination, it was very relaxing, spacious island with many things to do. The Staff and our butler was AMAZING and helpful, everyone was very kind. I recommend especially if it’s your first time in the Maldives. I suggest you choose all inclusive option because meals are expensive if you were to pay per meal. You get your money’s worth for all inclusive.."
Ifuru Island Maldives
"Absolutely fantastic stay- we were met at Male airport and looked after to our flight to Ifuru Island which is outstanding. All the staff looked after us with extreme courtesy and were extremely welcoming. Everywhere was very clean and cared for and the food very variable and to a high standard. Snorkelling was amazing we saw fish/stingrays/reef sharks/turtles/ resident heron. On our return we were met again at Male airport and looked after and helped to check in for our flight home. Cannot recommend this Island strongly enough ! ALL the staff were very dedicated and very hard working and so sorry can’t remember everyone’s names but very much felt a warm/friendly/family atmosphere. Shout out to: Monika, Tharaka, Sara, Diva, Donni, manager of waterfront(sorry don’t know name), Shiyaau, Basse, Pradeeb, Shiva, Raazan, Juli, Ahmed, Fraish (sorry if spelt wrong - captain of Komomo) thank you to everyone for a very special holiday "
