Constance Moofushi

From the warmest of welcomes to the fond farewell, our holiday was as perfect as it could have been. Mevin, the General Manager goes out of his way to ensure you have the best experience and, ably supported by Luthi, his Deputy and the rest of the team, we really did. I cannot praise this beautiful resort highly enough from the warmth of the staff and their very high level of service to the food and drink and our lovely, spotless room maintained by Loob. The continuity of staff, many of whom we have known for years and who always greet as so warmly and by name, really does make us feel instantly at home. The diving at Blue Tribe is fantastic and we were lucky enough to see many mantas, though sadly just missed out on the whale sharks which arrived the day before we left. Thank you to all the staff who worked so hard to make our holiday unforgettable with extra special thanks to Executive Chef Daniel.

We arrived in Male Airport and were met by Shareef, the Constance Moofushi rep, who escorted us to the resort minibus and arranged for our luggage to be checked in for the sea plane. We were driven to the Constance lounge to await our sea plane transfer to the South Atoll resort, where we were met by another polite host who gave us cold refreshing towels. The lounge was very relaxing with a variety of food and drinks as well as facility for a shower. The sea plane flight only took around 25 minutes and gave us great views of some of the other islands. On arrival at the Moofushi resort we were warmly greeted by a number of staff and escorted to reception, where we were given cold towels to refresh and a typical Moldivian drink to welcome us. We were also given a pair of flip flops. After a short tour, we were shown to our over the water villa with steps down to the crystal clear waters of the Indian Ocean. An Eagle Ray swam past followed a short time later by a Black Tip Shark ! The villa was just perfect and spotlessly clean. We mostly dined in the Manta Restaurant where we were greeted by a smiling young lady called Binju, who escorted us to our table of choice. Not only did this restaurant always have a "theme night" such as Moldivian, Italian, Eastern etc, but also catered for those who desired a more plain offering such as beef or chicken burgers which were cooked to order in front of you. The range of wines was fantastic and the Sommeliers were very knowledgeable and helpful, especially the young lady and Jeff. We aslo dined in the more intimate and formal Alizee Restaurant for my birthday. This was a culinary delight and was surprised by being presented with a birthday cake and candle along with singing. The dining experience at Alizee must be appreciated at least once while staying. There are lots of activities such as giant chess, darts, pool table, snorkelling, scuba trial etc etc. The staff from Reception, Housekeeping, Gardening, Buggy Drivers, Catering, Sommeliers, Totem Bar and Manta Bar could not be more polite, helpful and engaging. Special mention to Saif, Sinaz, Kubar, Gopan and Binju, Sommelier Jeff and the young lady Sommelier as they and all the other staff are a credit to Mevin Ramasamy and his Leadership Team. We definitely "came as guests, left as friends"!!
