Very attentive staff, especially Zahid who was with us throughout our stay. Very clean facilities, including kids club. Food is good. Massage is amazing. You can go to the resort via the speedboat which I consider an advantage.

Embudu Village Resort, hotel in South Male Atoll

Located in South Male’ Atoll, it takes 20 minutes’ speedboat ride from Velana International Airport to reach the island.

Resort is well kept and its location is perfect as it is close to Male, only a 20 minute speedboat ride (arranged by the resort) however the resort is showing its age. Breakfast and dinner buffet was awesome, nice variety of foods. Beach is beautiful, there is a coral reef (Coral garden) around the island for those who like to snorkel. Grounds are very well kept.

OZEN LIFE MAADHOO - Luxury All Inclusive, hotel in South Male Atoll

Offering a year-round outdoor pool and a private beach area, OZEN LIFE MAADHOO - Luxury All Inclusive is located in South Malé Atoll. The resort is approximately 45 minutes away from Malé by...

This was our second time at Ozen in 4 months. First time ... couldn't fault it. This time ... not so positive, we had to move rooms. As the first night we were disturbed all night by noisy neighbours with unruly kids and blaring music and shouting. We had the 2 bedroom beach villa 508 as requested same as time before but this time it was not as great. Second night other side were noisy also so we moved the next day. It Seemed a big group of Russians took over and it was very rowdy, The second room was dusty and smelt damp. Esp the second bedroom where our little boy slept. We had issues with the A.C and again noise. This time the bottle area where the laundry team use to put old bottles and bedding etc we could hear bottles being thrown all evening until turndown had been completed. All in all we had paid $18k dollars for accommodation only. And we're not as impressed as last time. Would be hesitant to return. Will try elsewhere next time. Our butler however was as amazing as always as were the staff, just let down by guests and also room issues.

    Both family and couple orientated the place is just fantastic, despite some hiccups the overall is very good . Is very peaceful and the island(s) quite big so not easy to get bored. Sea life is vibrating and staff excellent. Many activities to do . Try stay in bungalows with pool. This will raise the quality a noch, that will definitively make your stay more pleasant.

    So, let me tell you about our recent getaway to South Male...

    So, let me tell you about our recent getaway to South Male Atoll - it was like stepping into a postcard. From the second we landed, it was all about those island vibes and clear blue waters. Our digs were top-notch, I'm talking overwater villas and cozy beachfront bungalows with views that made us never want to leave. And don't even get me started on the snorkeling and diving - we swam with manta rays and checked out some seriously cool coral reefs. But it wasn't just about the underwater action. On land, we had spa days, tried all the water sports, and chowed some seriously fresh seafood. And let's not forget about the locals—they were so welcoming and friendly that it felt like we'd known them for years. Long story short, South Male Atoll is the ultimate chill spot. Whether you're into relaxation or adventure, there's something here for everyone. We left feeling totally refreshed and already planning our next trip back.

    Very well organised - you are taken care of as soon as you arrive until the security at the airport. You don’t lift a finger, luggage is collected/delivered. Transfer by boat was very efficient - excellent service

    The place is amazing, the watter and everything you seen in the photos and videos is exactly the same or even more beautiful. Thake care about the UV solar power, on our stay was maximum on the scale and a 50 spf is highly recommended as with 30 spf you will get burned and believe me is happening so fast 🤦🏻‍♂️ The temperature is quite constant and even during the night is very hot. Seaplane transfer can be quite expensive. Definitely worth visiting at least once in a lifetime!

    The Vellasaru experience starts from the point you come out of the airport to the point you hand your bags at the airline counter. It was amazing throughout. The staff at the resort were extremely friendly. Breakfast was great. Room was spacious and clean. The island was really well maintained. And honestly we could not ask for more. Views were amazing, marine life was decent and plenty of activities to keep you busy for 5 days. My little one did not want to leave the island and wanted to buy a house in the Maldives 😀

    Staff was always helpful, friendly and very polite. Our butler was amazing. We were welcomed at the airport immediately. When we arrived at the hotel, our butler had organized everything for us already. All of our dinners and activities were pre-booked. When we needed to change something, we just whatsapped our butler and he took care of it. The room was cleaned twice a day, our coffee machine broke and they changed the machine within 1 hour. 10/10 for the service and hospitality!

    We were delighted with the hotel: the friendly staff, with whom you truly feel cared for during interactions, the diverse food and drinks - everything we tried was delicious! The rooms were clean and comfortable - we stayed in two different types of rooms: overwater villa and overwater villa with a pool - both were very pleasing. The hotel left a great impression on me, and we would happily return here more than once.

    All the Hotel staff are very cooperative and polite, they will try to provide whatever request if possible. The food is ok and with variety of options to choose. The property itself is like paradise that you want to stay forever. I would like to thank specifically Joseph in lagoon bar, Brian in Island Pizza, Paulo in the Sunrise bar and Pollie in the Spa for being so helpful and accommodating.

    I checked so many hotels before going to Maldives and most of them were quiet far and overpriced. Transfer from airport cost more than the actual price you pay for one night stay. But Adaaran Club Rannalhi was the only hotel I came across with reasonable price for transferring from airport to the hotel. Only cost me 160 dollars by ferry both ways.

    Saii Lagoon is located in a complex that offers not only a 5-star resort facilities but also the chance to enjoy a small town atmosphere in the Crossroads boulevard and Marina, including a free visit to a Maldivian Cultural Center which was very interesting. It is also possible to access Hard Rock Hotel facilities anytime.

    Everything in Ozen Life was amazing epically the staff. try to look for Soodan who was cleaning our room and never make us asking for anything. Also, in the restaurant we met Saathiu who provide us with wonderful service everyday in the restaurant. I highly recommend to choose Ozen Life without even think of other resorts.

    We usually prefer to stay at Taj hotels, due to their hospitality and the quality of the food. Our stay at Taj Exotica was quite enjoyable. Various other activities like scuba diving, parasailing etc can be enjoyed by the guests. We went on a wonderful sunset cruise where we got to witness the oceanic beauty of Maldives.

    The Island and Reef are just amazing to do snorkel. The ambiance is calm and slowlife. The hotel is not luxurious but everything you need, maintaining the essence of the island and nature, which is amazing. The food buffet has a lot of variety and every day the theme changes, amazing grill and pasta.
