This was a surprise trip for my husband's 50th birthday and we were travelling with my Son Esa aged 8. Once we got to our resort we were greeted and welcomed by Amine and the team. Amine was very welcoming and took us on a buggy around the resort to show us around and escort us to our room. Amine went out his way daily to stay in touch via WhatsApp and kept us updated about all the activities taking place daily. Our room was amazing and we had been upgraded to a beach pool villa:-). The bed was decorated and a welcome card/fruits were placed in our room. The boy's were so excited regarding the private pool. Our resort was amazing and had alot to offer. This resort in particular had a kids club hence why I chose this resort. Guest Relations were amazing and accommodating . Grace also from Guest Relations was very welcoming and came to see us. The restaurant /food was pretty good and had lots of choice. Esa being a child wanted his normal chips/burger or nuggets and was offered this separately which was great. All the restaurant staff was amazing especially Shafiq, Shauka and the team. They all went out of their way to make us feel comfortable and happy. Shafiq had his way of taking care of families and even bringing the yummy special desserts to our table. He would always accommodate us to the best table/view too. Shauka was the head operations manager for all the restaurants and I promise you he was always hands on and ready to serve you in whatever you wanted to eat. He would always go out his way for us especially for my son Esa. Even on the last morning we was leaving he made Esa his favourite waffles :-). Our last dinner was arranged privately by Mr Ejaz (Hotel manager) and Shauka so we can celebrate my husband's 50th. A beautiful table was set on the stilts restaurant with a cake and Shauka personally came to serve us with all the different foods we wanted to eat:-). Absolutely amazing he was. Esa really misses everyone especially Shauka. We had an amazing stay and experience at Villa Nautica. We have already said that we will surely be coming back again and recommending to our family/friends. Small comment regarding the ice cream served at meal times in the restaurant- it was not nice/very poor quality. It was like some powdered ice cream mixed.

Stayed beginning of June 2023. Place is new, clean and staffs are all wonderful. We were two surfer girls from US and happy we chose this place. Pros: You ARE on the island where you can walk to ‘Jail Break’ Staffs can give you a ride if they have time. (Check the tide since entry to this point is tricky with corals. You might consider bringing booties). We chose the smallest room with two beds to share our luggages made it little hard to walk around but room has small fridge, bathroom with shower and rack to hang staff. Bikini beach, where you are allowed to expose your skin, is just a steps away if you want to chill. Hotel staffs will go and beyond to help arrange the boat to surf spots and other activities. Oevaru, even though this restaurant is NOT part of the hotel, it’s right next door. FBH has just opened it’s own restaurant for hotel guest around the corner where we had a nice breakfast. Wifi worked good throughout our stay. This is NOT a resort you think of Maldive. This is the ‘Guest House’ so don’t expect breakfast buffets or anything fancy. They’ll provide basic needs. They may fix your sheets but they won’t be washed unless you ask for it. Cons: (Place is new and they are working on improving it for surfers.) They don’t really have a surfboard rack outside. You have to leave your board at lobby or bring up to your room in small stairs. Hot water shower may take 10-15min of running water and not much pressure(local small island with minimal infrastructure). Place has a common area to sit down/eat on 4th floor but it’s too hot to hang out during the summer time. Himmafushi island has no resort, Only three restaurants on the island that were open when we were there had same menus and it’s hard to find vegetables/fruits since they must import food from somewhere. You are expected to cover your skin and no alcohol are allowed on this island. If you want those western cultures you may find to stay in ‘Resort’ or have a day trip to ‘Resort’.

**Review: Family Stay at Sheraton Full Moon Maldives Resort** Our family recently stayed at the Sheraton Full Moon Maldives Resort, and it was an unforgettable experience. Despite being an older resort, the property is impeccably maintained, thanks to the dedicated and professional team. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that customer satisfaction is a top priority here. The service exceeded all our expectations, with every staff member going above and beyond to ensure our comfort and enjoyment. One of the highlights of our trip was completing the PADI Advanced Open Water course. Instructor Mohammad Amaan was exceptional. His extensive experience and superb guidance made the dives not only educational but also incredibly enjoyable. His expertise and passion for diving truly enhanced our experience. Overall, the Sheraton Full Moon Maldives Resort offers a perfect blend of relaxation, adventure, and outstanding service. We highly recommend this resort for families looking for a memorable vacation in the Maldives.

The hotel for price quality ratio was good. Had a slight problem with the air conditioner but they resolved it/replaced it. Breakfast was pretty good but some of the food was too spicy for the customers at the hotel. Drinks for also expensive and I was just on half board so I didn't have any. The staff goes out of their way to be helpful and I had a pleasurable experience. Be warned this hotel has a very dead reef. You can see fish but no reef. One side of the island is not swimmable. I paid $123 for a ocean view room with half board. Drinking water is free and plentiful. Make sure you get half bored because the buffet dinner is 60 US dollars.

Thank you to Manik and Abu for the amazing attention to detail, they were so friendly and just brilliant! They have went above and beyond to help me surprise the husband for his birthday, there is no words to tell them how much I appreciated all their help.

It’s incredibly hard to put Oblu select lobigili experience into words but the first word I would think of is perfection. We are homesick having spent the first two weeks of December in the Maldives and on our return back to the UK, we keep thinking of the incredible people and friends we have made at the resort. From the moment we came out of the airport to the moment we got back to the airport, everything is looked after for you. The boat ride offers chocolates, a cold towel and a bottle of water of which when you reach the resort, you’re greeted by Jennet the wonderful and talented saxophone player alongside the team at lobigili. You receive your own island hostess/butler and they show you around and make you feel super comfortable. We feel so lucky to have met Ruchika who throughout our entire stay ensured we were looked after, our needs were met, no request was too much and who offered us countless lifts to breakfast, lunch and dinner in the buggy. Ruchika is a kind and smart human who genuinely made our stay full of happiness and smiles; she is super hard working especially after we came to know how many people she is the island host for. Her poor phone was forever pinging away but she always kept on top of every single request. Our entire island stay would never have been the same without her! We genuinely miss her everyday and think of her often and if you’re lucky enough to have her, know that you will not go without! The breakfast, lunches and dinner have such incredible options that you are never short on food or bored of the variety. The food is Michelin standard and plated so beautifully every single time though I’d encourage the staff to use slightly smaller plates so we can fit all the delicious food on the tables. The chef’s are constantly thinking of new dishes, they are full of innovation and there is a daily menu on rotation at dinner. Breakfast and lunch is a mixture of buffet and table service and the drinks and desserts are so delicious. The underwater restaurant is also such an amazing experience having seen the black tip reef shark there several times but our heart lay with the ylang ylang restaurant as we looked forward to seeing the staff there everyday. Though my review seems to be more around the staff than just the island, it’s because we still cannot get over the kindness and happiness of the staff and how amazing they made us feel daily. It must be incredibly hard to be constantly switched on for all the guests to forever show them a constant stream of humility, smiles, relatability, genuineness, happiness but all of the staff manage exactly that! Chef Gede and Chef Aamir, Chef Padam and the kind chef at Gaadiya (Chef Sharma) have gone out of their way to ensure we have been constantly spoilt; from sharing their lotus stem recipe and granola bars recipe to providing us with the most incredible sushi on our last lunch; to ensuring that though I couldn’t handle the spice levels, by personally coming to speak to us

First of all, I would like to thank Ctrip for its services. It is true that the big brand is trustworthy. But this hotel is an unreliable hotel. If possible, go to another house. Near the airport, Paradise Island, Full Moon Island, or Bandos Island can be reached by speedboat. When I was picked up, I was asked to wait by the side. I waited for almost an hour and no one answered me. We have to wait to get on the boat. When I arrived, I disembarked with an African couple, because after waiting for the African couple to wait for an hour, then I went through the formalities for them first, and I waited next to me. Then when I was sending off the plane, I had a flight at 9 o'clock. He told me to go to the airport at 6 o'clock. I said that I would go to see the dolphins with your hotel group. They didn't care, saying that the boat would not wait for me. But this group of people will definitely not be on time, it will definitely exceed 6 o'clock. In fact, they and Dolphin Sightseeing are both in the same hotel. They didn’t even know when the Dolphin Sightseeing came back, and then they said no to me without thinking for a second. It made me boring all day. Later, I asked myself, and the dolphin tour will be back before six o'clock. The staff at the recreation hub is much better than the cold-blooded people at the front desk. Finally, Ctrip coordinated. The boat departed 15 minutes late, but finally left at 6:25, not because of me, but Xiao Hei slowly got there. I got back to the pier on time at 6 o'clock. There are island hopping tours here, but because this hotel is inherently few people, each project requires more than 6 people to go, and many projects are not enough for people to go. I don't have much time in Madai, so I can only give up. So go to the more expensive islands where more people go, at least you can go to island hopping. The hotel rooms are average. The difference between the garden room and the superior room is the first floor and the second floor. The crows on the trees outside at night are very noisy and can’t stand it. In fact, it’s good for the first floor to be cheaper by 200 yuan a day. This island is the cheapest island fee, 85 US dollars, wifi is very poor, slow to death, you must first buy a data card in the Maldives. The waiter is not good, don't come, go to Sheraton Full Moon Island or Pantos Island, Bandos is about the same fee, 93 dollars, but the diving there is beautiful, the room price is about the same, but the service of others is good. It costs $43 per person to go back and forth to Bandos. You can only practice snorkeling here, there are many reefs, it's a small island, and it discriminates against the Chinese, and the service attitude is so bad. Everyone Chinese, don't come here. I regret coming. I should spend more money to stay in other hotels. The breakfast in the hotel is pretty good. The breakfast place is open-air and the photos are beautiful. There are many kinds of breakfast, too many to believe, I ate breakfast for two hours
