We had the pleasure of celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary at the St. Regis Vommuli Resort, and it was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience that exceeded every expectation. From the moment we arrived until the bittersweet farewell, we were enveloped in world-class luxury, genuine warmth, and thoughtful, personalized service from a team that felt more like family than staff. A special thank you to our incredible butler, Sareer, who anticipated our every need with grace and care — making each moment of our stay feel effortless and personalized. Dian, the gracious manager at Alba, ensured every meal was flawless, while Mahufooz, our wonderful server, introduced us to an authentic Maldivian breakfast and even surprised us with a thoughtful “contraband” treat that made us feel right at home. The dining experiences across the resort were simply extraordinary. At Orientale, Chef Abdul (the first Egyptian head chef there) and our delightful server Lulu delivered some of the most flavorful and beautifully presented meals we’ve ever had. Sabin, another talented chef, impressed us with his creativity, while Sanjeeb expanded our palate with his expert sake pairings. This duo created one of the most memorable meals of our lives. At The Whale Bar, Jobin stood out with his impeccable service each evening as we watched the sunset over the ocean. Valeri kept things vibrant at the Beach Bar with expertly crafted cocktails and welcoming energy. On the sand, Inaad was always ready with a towel and a smile, and in our villa, Areef made sure everything was spotless and thoughtfully arranged — his attention to detail was truly appreciated. We also explored the resort’s wellness offerings and were blown away. Kimme and Nancy, our spa therapists, delivered two of the best massages we've ever had. Amrutha led peaceful, grounding yoga sessions, while Vimal introduced us to zero gravity yoga — a unique and fun experience. Nixon, the energetic fitness instructor, helped us stay active and balanced throughout our stay. The consistently exceptional cuisine throughout the resort is a true testament to Executive Chef Christian’s leadership and passion. And a warm thank you to Shumaes Rasheed, the Marketing Manager, for his kind hospitality and engaging conversation — it's clear the entire resort is run by people who genuinely care. The St. Regis Vommuli is not just a destination — it’s a feeling. Every sunrise, every meal, every interaction is orchestrated with intention and love. This team created memories we will cherish forever. We left with full hearts, new friendships, and a deep desire to return.
