From
RomaniaFrom the Male airport to the resort and back, we were carefully provided with all the services and information we needed. We were quite worried, being our first experience so far from home.
Room service was provided twice a day, the food was varying every day, a smile on every member of the personnel's face every time we met. The rooms are huge and well equiped, pools cleaned daily by dedicated staff, privacy when you need it, 5 star services when you require them. But the main attraction is the water and its beauty. I've never in my life seen so many species of fish. It was enough to go snorkelling around the villa, but don't miss the free snorkelling session organized by the resort. The journey itself is memorable, but the reef and the life it hosts is beyond our imagination. Turtles, dolphins, stingrays, sharks, octopuses, triggerfish and so many other. At the end of the session we were waited with fresh fruits and cold water.
There are so many people I would like to thank for making our stay so memorable: Kingston with his keen eye on detail, Sasha, so helpful and doing her best to fulfill our requests (and believe us, they were many...), Ibby, always there when you need guidance most, Mike, the child of the sea, and of course, the heart and soul of the island, Omar. Thank you for the bottle of wine, it was delicious. And the fact that we were offered another villa to stay between check-out and the seaplane departure, well, that simply turned our vacation into a dream one. Practically we extended it with one more day..
I apologise for not being able to reflect the entire experience in a few words. To put it simply we were on good hands. The small details build the big picture: fresh water in every corner of the island (rooms, boats, gym, you name it), a buggy to pick you up in case you are lazy, the free minibar, fruits in our villa at our arrival, a smile on every personnel' face, services done well, not just to check a box.
