Hotels With Bar in Gaafu Alifu Atoll, Maldives

1. Hygiene status: There are bugs in the wooden closet of the water bungalow; how many blood (?) Traces (?) Are found on the bedding from the opening of the quilt ... 2, buffet meals in general. I didn't order $ 3 / bottle of glass bottled water at the cafeteria, but found it on the bill when I left the island. 3. When checking out, there was a Korean male employee, because we questioned that there was an extra $ 3 on the bill. This person called a supervisor (a dark-skinned, middle-aged fat uncle) to discuss it. Then, the deposit returned by their hands was mixed with a 100-dollar 90-year version of a small-dollar fake dollar. I found out after I returned to China. 4. Ignoring the above, the scenery on the island is still great! This scenery alone is worth the return trip!

Replenish your honeymoon with your wife and enjoy the resort at a glance. The environment is so good that you can jump out into the Indian Ocean to go swimming and snorkeling every day. The sea is full of colorful tropical fish, sharks, devil fish, sea urchins and sea cucumbers. The service was very great, and there were kind smiles everywhere, especially the Siranthe of the pool bar, which gave me a very deep impression. I can understand what a super service is from the time I haven't started. We stayed on the 3rd, but arrived in Male on the 2nd night. The resort had communicated with my hotel in Male in advance. The next day I should go back to the airport to take the inland plane. set. E-mail English communication before departure is also afraid of any problems in the middle of the mistakes, but in the end I found that my fears are superfluous, really do not have to worry about anything. The only downside is that there are too few restaurants and food choices in the resort. The buffet for dinner is really good. If you want to go, you really need to bring more snacks and some instant noodles.

I came to this hotel for the second time, I really like it, stay away from the hustle and bustle. The decor of the hotel is natural and casual, but very private. In the evening, the dinner on this beach is just below the wooden shelf. The service staff will wrap you around with a gauze and place a table chair underneath. Eat once is 485 dollars. Watch the stars in the field. Need to tell the hotel in advance, otherwise you may be ”robbed.” Every time the hotel staff came to the pier to wave goodbye, it was very moving, and the speedboat was far away and still beckoning. Hotel staff training is really good.

Opportunities for improvement: Rooms 1. consider using small bottles of water that can fit into the bar fridge. Cold water after a hot day is a game changer! Melange 1. Surf and turf: the big prawns and lobster meat were frozen and were not really attractive. After grilling, the meat turned out to be partially soggy, which is a turn off. 2. Suggestion: for the grill, cook to order instead of preparing the food and leaving it under a heater lamp. I.e. lamb cutlets, pork chops, grilled sea bass etc. Freshly grilled food taste better and maintains the high quality. Grilled food left under a heater lamp becomes either soggy or too tough. 3. Same suggestion for breakfast waffles: make to order rather than leave it on the plates ready to go. Examples of great service: 1. Mariana helped prepare a ice bucket of champagne for us even though the honeymoon comment was not originally registered by trip.com and pullman. She was very helpful and remembers what clients say. Top marks and greatly appreciated! 2. All buggy drivers greet upon pick up and some even went out of their way to reverse so we can video manta rays in shallow waters off our villa. Truly deserving of the great service tag! 3. All waiters serving at all restaurants always asks whether we want water to start off. It feels like an SOP but we love it! Consistent and service with a smile! Was truly a great experience and would love to come back again!

Thank you Raffles for another magical stay. We are blessed to be able to visit you after only one years time. The island is lush and beautiful and the surrounding reef even better. No matter where you go in the water there is something to see right in front of your villa; in whatever villa you are in. Even in a foot and a half of water you can just sit there and watch baby reef sharks swimming with schools of fish right in front of you. And whether you are comfortable in the water or not, your butler will accompany you on a snorkel or the resident Marine Biologist, Amadine who can spot all form of marine life during your time in the water and make you absolutely at home on the reef. Not only is the water the source of endless entertainment but the people at the resort are SO amazing, it feels like being part of a wonderful family. Everyone from housekeeping to the entire F and B team to upper management are so kind and cool and fun to hang out with; and how could it be any other way with the handsome resort manager Yoges as the face of Raffles to greet you almost daily and ensure all is fabulous. The restaurants are great, either sitting with your feet in the sand or on the over water island watching all the fish just below you while having your delicious breakfast. Also there is fantastic live music at both options, either a great cover band who takes requests and loves it when you get up and dance to a soulful sunset sax player, just take your pick. Whoever said bigger is better has never been here, this island resort really provides an awesome Maldivian experience. This resort was definitely worth the repeat visit and we look forward to our return. A true jewel in the Indian Ocean!
