An unforgettable surfing experience with Nic Von Rupp

30 Jun 2026
We chose The Ritz-Carlton Maldives after learning that Nic Von Rupp would be there, and it turned out to be one of the best decisions of our trip. Surfing with Nic was a truly special experience. He is a top-level athlete, but also an incredibly nice, open and down-to-earth person. Being in the water and around someone of his level added huge value to our stay. It was also great to meet his father Roman and his coach Julio - both amazing people who made the experience even more memorable. The hotel deserves a lot of credit for creating programs like this. For guests who love surfing and sport, having access to someone like Nic is a real game changer and a truly unique experience. We are already planning to come back and will definitely recommend this experience to our friends.

Beautiful Honeymoon Hotel with some Service Hiccups

31 Aug 2025
My husband and I came here on our honeymoon, and can confirm: the Ritz-Carlton Maldives truly feels like something out of a movie. Every bit of the rooms and resort grounds lived up to what we had seen online. The design of separate islands connected by bridges make it feel as if you're going "into town" when you bike or get a golf cart ride over to dinner or to go to the beach. By the end of our 7-night stay, we had a nice routine down yet never felt bored or like we were ready to leave because it always felt like there was more to do. The grounds are immaculately groomed. The sand art created on the floor of our room each night was a real highlight. And the couple of picture-perfect sunsets and sunrises we got to experience against the crystal clear waters had us already planning a return trip to the Maldives before we'd left. The food and beverage team at the Ritz-Carlton was also superb. We were a bit worried about what to expect given I'm gluten free (celiac), but we met the Food and Beverage director at one of the beach happy hours, and she kindly informed us about some gluten free items to watch out for (read: gluten free naan at Arabesque and via room service!) and even remembered us throughout the rest of our stay. But the highlight for us was definitely Chef David at Summer Pavilion. He went above and beyond to not only accommodate gluten free, but give us a different experience each time we came back (and we came back quite a few times!). To this day, at home, we have a dinner we just call "Chef David" which is an attempt to recreate a beef and rice noodle stir fry dish he made that still lives rent free in our heads! We did notice that we seemed to be in the minority of guests staying for an entire week; most people seemed to come for a few days and then leave. And unfortunately, we did notice that service from our Aris Meeha and room staff, dropped off around that same time frame -- perhaps as he shifted to take on new guests. But for a five-star hotel (and the price of this hotel) that was a bit of a bummer. We had to resort to sorting things out on our own for the last 3-4 days of our trip when we saw that we weren't getting anywhere messaging for reservations/a golf cart ride/etc. The offered activities also left a bit to be desired, with morning yoga and a facial class feeling particularly terrible. And as others have noted, the coral and ocean life here just hasn't yet grown enough to quite give you the quintessential Maldives swimming experience straight from the overwater bungalows (particularly compared with friends who stayed at other resorts in the Maldives). All in, the Ritz-Carlton Maldives was a truly wonderful experience. But would we come back? Perhaps for a day or two for memories' sake. But if we were to come back to the Maldives, I'd also wonder if the service might be better at some of the other hotels.

Best butler service ! Attention to details!!

31 Jul 2026
Its been a magical 3 nights (gals trip!) at The Ritz Carlton Maldives. Loved the resort’s design especially Eau Bar. Everyone made us feel at home and service was seamless the icing on the cake was our butler I-gie. Her attention to details and communications with her team were always on point. Every night we come back to our beach villa to some lovely surprises. Food and service were top notch esp the Summer Palace dinner. We had a spa massage which is sublime ! The resort offers a free session of professional photography and a printed copy as keepsake - we had so much fun posing around the island ! The dolphins cruise was one of the best we’ve ever experienced, we had 2 pods of dolphins swimming next to our dhoni! Can’t wait to be back again !

Very satisfied

31 Aug 2025
Overall very satisfied — probably the best resort I have stayed at so far. Special praise for the pre-arrival email communication: every reply was clear, precise, and answered my questions directly, with every single point I mentioned in my emails being addressed. Many other resorts, even luxury ones, do not do this well or give it much attention. Of course, a reminder: things on the island are not cheap. I forgot to bring an SD card and ended up having to buy one on the island at nearly eight times the usual price.

Tripadvisor Overview

From Sangu conch shell blown on arrival, evoking a scene from the ancient Maldives, legendary Ritz-Carlton service by an Aris Meeha, island butler, a character inspired by the olden royal courts, to the celebration of sunsets with an elegant performance of Bodu Beru drums that honors the oldest surviving tradition of the Maldives, followed by a flaming ceremony marking the transition from day to evening, The Ritz-Carlton Maldives, Fari Islands invites you to embrace island life. The resort features 7 restaurants and bars between the dedicated Culinary Island, Grand Sunset Beach, and Fari Marina Village, offering curated experiences for all tastes. Guests can wake up to the aromas of freshly brewed coffee in La Locanda, where Southern Italian cuisine and customs unfold; savor succulent kebabs at Arabesque; embrace the Mediterranean at the family-friendly Beach Shack; or appreciate Oriental flavors at Summer Pavilion.
