Amazing property, service and food.

Place where you feel like Home

31 Dec 2025
White sandy beaches shimmer beneath the sun, each island resting gently on the ocean’s blue silk. From above, they appear like a necklace of pearls, scattered delicately across the Indian Ocean. We journeyed along this radiant chain, until we reached its heart— Ithaafushi, the Mother of the Pearl, where all beauty seems to begin and quietly return. Here, the sand glows softer, the sea feels deeper, and the island does not simply welcome you— it embraces you, as if you were always meant to arrive.At Waldorf Astoria Maldives Ithaafushi, time seems to soften, and life slows to the rhythm of the sea. The island breathes serenity, but it is the people who give it a soul. From the moment we arrived, we felt not hosted, but gently welcomed—like old friends returning to a place that already knew us. Yousry, our concierge, was the quiet architect of our days, weaving every plan with grace and care, ensuring that each moment unfolded effortlessly. His presence was reassuring, thoughtful, and deeply human—luxury in its truest form. Our villa became a sanctuary shaped by devotion. Rashad tended to it with silent precision, leaving behind comfort, calm, and delicate touches that spoke without words. Behind this harmony stood Aappe, whose leadership was the invisible thread holding everything together. He did not merely oversee housekeeping—he elevated it into an art. His standards, his pride, and his quiet dedication flowed through every detail, creating an atmosphere of effortless perfection that allowed us to fully surrender to rest and peace. His care was never loud, yet it was profoundly felt, like a steady heartbeat guiding the soul of our stay. Mornings blossomed under Salta’s warm smile, where simple breakfasts turned into cherished rituals filled with light and kindness. As the sun dipped into the ocean, Betty at The Ledge added poetry to our evenings, her graceful service wrapping each meal in elegance and ease. This island does not simply offer beauty—it teaches you how it feels to be truly cared for. We leave with salt in our hair, gratitude in our hearts, and a quiet longing to return. Waldorf Astoria Maldives Ithaafushi is not a destination—it is a feeling that stays with you long after the waves fade from view.

Nothing short of perfection

30 Sep 2025
Favorite hotel on the planet. From the room, the food, to the service, everything is perfect. There is not a single thing I could complain about, even if nitpicking. Every restaurant I went to was incredibly tasty, would highly recommend Terra & The Ledge. I bought a swim suit from the boutique & left it out on the outside table to dry overnight. Since the swim suit was white, the table dyed my swim suit brown & the hotel immediately replaced the swim suit for me free of charge.

Beautiful property, kind staff, great beach, relaxing stay.

31 Jan 2026
I really enjoyed my stay at this property. Everyone was kind, welcoming, and genuinely helpful, which made the experience even better. The beach was beautiful and very relaxing, and the overall atmosphere was calm and peaceful. The food was decent with a good variety, and everything was well organized and comfortable throughout the stay. Most importantly, the experience truly made me happy. I would definitely consider coming back again.

Wonderful resort, but falls far short of its peers in Maldives.

31 Dec 2025
Amazing, large, well designed rooms. Amenities on the island are great. The Art Atelier is a very nice touch. Staff were incredible, as is true throughout the Maldives in my experience. The variety of eateries is excellent at ten. So why three stars? Because it bills itself as an ultra-luxury resort which it certainly is not. At this price point it is probably subpar to genuine ultra-luxury hotels in the Maldives. They seem to routinely confuse ultra-luxury with overpriced which gets abusive after a week. For instance, while the variety of eateries is great, Li Long charges $52 (+tax which should be inclusive) for a bowl of mediocre corn soup. They run the same hustle as a Radisson might with breaking out a 'Service Charge' from bills so they don't have to include 18% tax in the prices. This falls more toward tacky than ultra-luxury. Our transfer from Malé had 14 people aboard our boat, not including the captain and first mate. We couldn't even sit together as a family. Overcrowding a small yacht isn't really something a hotel billing itself as ultra-luxury should consider doing. Simply run a boat large enough for everyone to sit or two separate transfers, instead of lumping people together. As another example, every single one of our spa appointments began late. Meaning the therapist came out to the waiting room after the scheduled appointment time despite arriving 20 minutes prior. As discussed in other reviews, there is a lot of traffic on the island roads. There are no serene walks or cycle trips to be had as there is constantly e-motorcycle and golf cart traffic (many without headlights at night, which is unnecessarily dangerous). There are loads of such easily solvable problems throughout the resort. Its simply not what I would expect of an establishment charging $6k per night.
