boutique resort
31 May 2025
Excellent boutique hotel. It was my 30th island resort in the Maldives . Convenient from Male only 25 min by boat but far enough not to be bothered by all the traffic. Villas are small but well taken care of. Aircon is COLD. Food is minimalistic but very good . Service I would rate as outstanding. The new swimming pool at the end of the jetty is an amazing spot to spend the day! Very clever solution and a beautiful construction. It has a fantastic reef it's a bit better than Dhawa in my opinion and we snorkelled both. We will definitely return

Loved the people, the peaceful environment, and the deliciously presented food
31 May 2025
I had a truly memorable stay at the resort. The calm and peaceful environment was exactly what I needed I also really enjoyed the variety of meals and the beautiful presentation of each dish. A heartfelt thank you to Fairoiz, Shujau, Liu, and Yaafis for their friendliness and warm hospitality. Their genuine care and attentiveness made the stay even more special.

Great island travel, sand house, sunshine, beach, night star and small sharks on the shore, everything is so pleasant.

The sea view is beautiful, but there are many mosquitoes outside the restaurant, which is not very comfortable.The room has two pools, a small swimming pool and a hot soaking pool, suitable for relaxing after swimming.Our housekeeper Fatima is very nice and cares about us.

Best anniversary
30 Apr 2025
My wife and I visited the Maldives celebrating our anniversary. The experience start to finish has been excellent! Upon arrival in Male being greeted for our speedboat transfer and making our way to the islands every bit was smooth and comfortable. Upon arriving we were greeting with warm welcome with barefoot ritual from our resort host Fatima, she was very energetic and had a very positive attitude! She was very responsive and hosted us with complete care! and gave us great advice on things to do while here in Banyan tree for a 4 days .also the team from the restaurant and the spa was fantastic. Before leaving we are already planning a trip back next year!

Our ATOL number is T7365 and your protection begins as soon as you’re booked. If a supplier fails, you’ll get your money back, and you can’t get stranded abroad because ATOL ensures you’re brought home at no extra cost.
Payments safeguarded in a Trust Account
The airline is paid when you book and the rest of your payments are held in a trust account, which is controlled by the Travel Trust Association. This is much safer than an ABTA bond, because your money can only be released to pay the suppliers for each element of your holiday, and and your ATOL protection safeguards the whole holiday. Our TTA membership number is U7488.
