It was an amazing experience of living on such a small island, but they will provide everything you need. The food is just wonderful, stuff is friendly and helpful, atmosphere is nice and very Italian oriented. Reccomend for those who loves privacy and very calm vacations in beautiful place! Would add TV into the rooms for the days with bad weather.

Everything was wonderful. It had a cheerful Italian atmosphere, and the staff were friendly enough to say hello when they passed each other.

Myself, husband and 7 year old daughter stayed on this island last year and I can only apologise that it's taken so long to write a review because we had the most amazing time at sandies! Firstly we were given a free upgrade to a water villa upon arrival which was super generous! It was clean with simple decor and no TV (perfect to relax!) Serviced twice daily (by DiDi) with plenty of water left in the room. The food was amazing and lots of things cooked fresh in front of you with different themes every night even a bbq on the beach some nights! (Special mention to Gassy our waiter) The views on this island were absolutely breathtaking and the snorkelling was amazing! Having stayed at a different island in the maldives recently, it really made Sandies stand out. We spent the entire 2 weeks bare foot (even in the restaurant) which really gives you the desert island feel. They have one bar and one restaurant to keep things simple. The island is small and friendly and lovely and quiet, a real get away in paradise. After visiting another island recently, Sandies is definitely the one we would return to and we hope to do so!

This was our 3rd visit to this island and it was as incredible as ever. All the staff are amazing- very welcoming, friendly and very efficient. The catering staff were great and made sure I knew which meals were gluten free and I also had the option of gluten free bread, pasta, pizza and pancakes with my choice of toppings. Our waiter Ibraham was first class - service was always with a smile and he was highly professional- he remembered us from previous visits and remembered our favourite drinks for with our meals. We stayed in a water villa and Ahmed was a real star- our room was kept immaculate and he was always polite and friendly- he worked around our snorkelling times which we really appreciated. The bar staff were super friendly and always made sure we had a drink to hand - Mohammed always had time for a chat and we enjoyed seeing his artwork. The office staff were great as well- we had an issue with our water camera and our incredible kuoni rep in male - Aishath Shamoona- offered to pick up a replacement and take it to the islands head office and mattia arranged for it to be brought to the island by a returning member of staff.. We had the camera the next day- what amazing service and dedication- they really do everything they can to make sure your holiday is perfect. Mattia was also our go to guy for anything marine related - he is so knowledgeable and passionate. The reef is thriving and the island is very eco responsible. We saw, sharks, turtles eagle rays, sting rays, lion fish and a whole reef of beautiful marine life. It was been a real pleasure staying at this island and we highly recommend it

Paradise! So many of the Maldives’s islands have gone for a high luxury full on experience! Sandies Bathala exploits its simplicity! No TVs in rooms, no motorised water sports no full on entertainment…. No shoes! It’s perfect for those wanting to relax, swim, snorkel and enjoy a trip back to nature! The staff are all lovely and make you feel welcome, doing their best to enhance your experience!

Our stay at Sandies Bathala was absolutely exceptional! Everything about this hotel exceeded our expectations. The food was delicious with a great variety of options, and every meal was a delight. Our water villa was spotless, comfortable, and beautifully designed—we slept so well every night. The activities were incredible, especially the snorkeling, which was truly unforgettable. The vibrant marine life and crystal-clear waters made it a magical experience. The staff were outstanding—so kind, friendly, and always ready to help with anything we needed (Shareef, Didi and the whole team of marine biologists). Their warm hospitality made our stay even more special. Everything was simply perfect. We can’t wait to come back! Highly recommend Sandies Bathala for a dream vacation.
