This is an amazing privately owned island, which is a gem of a find. If you want calmness, relaxation and great service, then this is the place to go. This is our second visit and would happily come back again. The island has lovey, clean rooms and does not have crazy numbers of people, so at meal times, the beaches are deserted. The island offers some great snorkel trips but i would advise you to be strong swimmers (the sea can be rough and many of the trips are in very deep water, as you jump into the sea from a boat). The views around the island are breathtaking and the food is awesome (they also cater for vegan/lactose intolerance and gluten intolerance) vegetarian food was a little sp****, but we ate vegan at lot of the time, which we still lovely but can get a little boring due to limited options, especially when you see all the other delights on offer, but are not vegetarian (including cakes etc) The service was outstanding, the staff could not do any more for us. There was a wide range of visitors from all sorts of countries (a large proportion of German/Russian people) the library was more geared towards German, which suggests the larger number of visitors were probably from there. We stuck to our Amazon Kindles, so didn’t need the library anyway. There were also options to hire boats, jet skis and snorkels if you needed them, plus the possibility of gaining a full PADI diving license for anyone who wanted to do it (all had extra costs). There was a little shop on the island, but it is expensive for essentials (such as snorkels or suntan lotion) because it all has to be imported in, which is understandable. Therefore, make sure you take whatever items you need with you. If you want to experience the Maldives without the commercial craziness or the major corporation chain aspect, this is a great island to visit.
