A Perfect Holiday, Thanks to the Excellent Service from ICE and Mango!

31 Aug 2025
We had a wonderful week at the Ritz-Carlton Maldives.The stunning environment and impeccable service were truly memorable. A special thanks to our Chinese-speaking ladies' butler, ICE, for her attentive care. She arranged everything for us, making the entire trip incredibly smooth. We also extend our gratitude to our housekeeping attendant, Mango, for his meticulous work. He kept our villa in perfect condition every day and delighted us with his creative towel art. Sincere thanks to both of them for making our stay so perfect. Highly recommended! 在马代丽思卡尔顿度过了美妙的一周。绝美的环境和无懈可击的服务都令人难忘。 特别要感谢会说中文的女管家ICE,她无微不至,为我们妥善安排了一切,让整个行程无比顺畅。同时也感谢房间服务员Mango,他工作非常细心,每天都将房间整理得完美无瑕,并用可爱的毛巾小动物为我们带来惊喜。 真诚感谢两位让我们的旅行如此完美,强烈推荐!

3rd time back to the Ritz

31 Jul 2025
This was our third visit to the Ritz-Carlton Fari Islands in the Maldives, and every stay only deepens our love for the Ritz. The setting is paradise, but what truly makes us return again and again are the people who go above and beyond. From our very first trip in October 2022, Abu has been the reason we fell in love with this resort. He was our Aris Meeha at that time, and his attentiveness and genuine care were unmatched , not just for the Maldives but for any hotel I have ever stayed at. What’s remarkable is that on each of our returns, he has been in different roles across the resort, but always just as helpful , always anticipating our needs and always making everything feel effortless. Every stay feels like coming home to family because of Abu, and he remains the main reason we’ve returned three times already. Our most recent trip this july 2025 , we had the pleasure of meeting Mango, who looked after our housekeeping. He was great ,cheerful, friendly, and kept our three villas spotless. Our kids loved his little towel surprises shaped like turtles and sharks and manta rays. Evgeny, who we often saw at the restaurants and bars, was another highlight. Always smiling, warm, and attentive, he made every place we went enjoyable. A mention must go to Chef Pedro, the head of the resort’s culinary team. not only did he oversee some of the best dining we’ve had in the Maldives , their breakfast is some of the best we’ve experienced anywhere. he even shared a list of restaurants in his home region of San Sebastián for our future travels. His passion for food is felt in every meal at the resort. And of course, our day at sea with Captain Ali, Wadde, and Elaf was unforgetable from helping us catch a beautiful wahoo, to snorkeling with sharks, to simply laughing and enjoying the catamaran. They made it one of the best days of our trip. And also the catamaran was new and great. The Ritz-Carlton Fari Islands is paradise on its own, but it’s people like Abu, Mango, Evgeny, Chef Pedro, and the amazing boat crew and many more.. who make it extraordinary. We can’t wait to return for another visit next year.

Wow!

31 Jul 2025
From the moment we were greeted by Shaghaf, our Aros Meeta, we knew we were in good hands. She recently won Concierge/Guest Services Personality of the Year at the Hotelier Maldives 2025 Awards and she was professional, efficient, warm, friendly and fun. She looked after us like family and absolutely nothing was too much trouble. Shaghaf arranged late check out for us which was the perfect end to a perfect stay. Everyone should have a Shaghaf in their lives! We stayed for 7 nights in a Sunset Beach Villa, beautifully decorated and maintained and kept spotlessly cleaned twice daily by Mango who is a real asset to the housekeeping team. The service standards at RC Fari Islands are incredible. We felt like the only guests there, everyone was so friendly, customer focussed and keen to do more to assist or make our experience even better - we were already feeling so special and pampered! Everyone who passed would smile and say hello, the communication between the Ladies and Gentlemen is truly amazing, they delivered such a personal service with incredible surprises each and every day. We enjoyed the Sundowner and Elite Cocktail Parties, both of which gave us the opportunity to meet senior management and again feel like valued guests. Food was outstanding and beautifully presented and we especially enjoyed La Locanda, Summer Pavilion, Beach Shack and Eau. Given the high standards it is almost impossible to single out individual team members, but a special call out to Azu, Urgam, Naufal, Audy, Adey, Abu, Jessica, Annaf, Marlina and Evgeny for making our dining/bar experiences so memorable. We've been lucky enough to stay in other Ritz-Carltons and been blown away by the people and great teams. We can well understand why Fari Islands has recently been voted No 1 RC in the world. Overall, an unforgettable and incredible stay, it was our first visist and we will definitely return.

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.
