As soon as we stepped off the seaplane, we were warmly welcomed by our butler, Mena, with cool towels, fresh coconuts, and happy smiles! Mena gave us a truly wonderful experience - managing everything from dinner reservations, making recommendations on activities, to arranging thoughtful little surprises that made our trip that much more special (#TeamMena!) The food and service completely blew us away. Both the breakfast buffet and à la carte menu were fresh, beautifully presented, and really highlighted the essence of the local Maldivian cuisine. We looked forward to a lovely breakfast every morning and would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Novi, Dian, Yulia, and the rest of the restaurant team for their attentiveness and warmth ❤️ Although we stayed during the rainy season, the hotel staff kindly arranged some wonderful indoor activities such as cooking classes and meditation lessons (especially on days when it was raining). We maximized our snorkeling time here, and it felt incredible to simply step out from the deck of our hotel room right into the water to explore the beautiful coral reefs! We also had a blast with our personal trainer at the gym, Nixion, who really gave us a run for our money with his intense Tabata workout lessons, in addition to our morning yoga sessions with a very kind yogi teacher. Our housekeeper, Shiafiu, made our stay feel so refreshed and magical every day. At the end of the day, we realized that what truly made our stay was the remarkable staff. We cannot thank them enough for their thoughtfulness, warmth and dedication to giving us one of our most memorable experiences. The St. Regis Maldives comes with our highest recommendations, as we believe they have truly set the gold standard for what a magical luxury experience should be. Thank you to the entire St. Regis team for an unforgettable stay. See you again soon! ❤️ -Mike & Tram
