Como Maalifushi

Absolutely loved our time at COMO Maalifushi. It truly felt like paradise on earth. So much love and gratitude to the wonderful people who made it so special - Fayaz, Wena, Green, our amazing butler Jalil, and many other kind souls. The food was beautiful, the service full of heart, presence, and kindness. We’d love to return one day.

Amazing overall experience. We chose this resort because of its close proximity to multiple surf breaks and our daughters had a great time on their daily trek with the excellent Tropicsurf team. We also alternated with padel tennis, gym, yoga and had great fun on a sunset fishing trip where we caught loads of fish off simple hand lines. We also waded across at low tide to an adjoining uninhabited island and had a great time there. Spa treatments were enjoyed, food and the different themed nights were also excellent. We stayed in an "over water" villa and it had everything we needed. Staff and service excellent throughout and the resort whatsapp and butler system works really well. Highly recommended.

We booked COMO Maalifushi after a recommendation from a neighbour and it didn’t disappoint. From the moment we made the booking, the communication and level of service was second to none, from arranging our sea planes (with private lounge on arrival in Male), to the care and warmth from every member of staff during our stay. Special mention to our butler Naail, who is available 24/7 to ensure no question or request goes unanswered, Rini, Zuaail and the wider catering team and the kids club assistants. The team really do go out of their way to ensure you have a wonderful time, and they are all brilliant with children. The resort itself is exactly how it is described, a remote island paradise with pristine beaches and clear waters, far away from the noise and light pollution of resorts closer to Male. We stayed in a beach villa, spacious with a private pool and direct beach access. We enjoyed snorkelling on the house reef and the sunset dolphin cruise. Food is as you would expect from a five star Maldives resort, and we particularly enjoyed the extensive breakfast and the special themed nights put on in the main restaurant. We highly recommend this resort and look forward to returning in years to come.

We had a great vacation at Como Maalifushi. The island is beautiful with a lot of vegetation and very well taken care of. Our room was AMAZING! We had a water villa with a magical view. The staff was amazing! Every single one of them, starting from our buttler Jalil, the manager and staff of the restaurants, the gardeners, the housekeeping and ending with our super amazing chef Dika, they all made our vacation special. We really felt we were pampered the whole time. Chef Dika surprised us with a special meal one evening. It was one of the best lobster spaghettis we've ever had. Thank you, Como Maalifushi!

My family, including two children stayed at COMO Maalifushi last week, where villas were spacious, far surpassing any other hotel accommodations we’ve experienced, and provided the perfect setting for a luxurious and comfortable getaway. The staff at the resort were exceptionally well-trained, friendly, and always went the extra mile to ensure our happiness. A special mention to Zayan, our butler, who made our stay unforgettable, from the moment he welcomed us with refreshing drinks to packing our luggage for departure. Zayan created a home-like comfort zone for us, organized a surprise birthday party for my sister, everything was beyond expectation, omotenashi was present. The F&B team also stood out with their warmth and attentiveness. They greeted us by name, and we found ourselves looking forward to visiting the restaurant. The food was delicious, authentic, and crafted to be both tasty and healthy. My family appreciated the thoughtfulness and creativity behind each dish. This resort is a gem, offering a perfect blend of luxury and authentic Maldivian hospitality. This resort is a must-visit for anyone looking to create memories in a truly idyllic setting. A heartfelt thanks to Peter Nilsson and his amazing team for making our stay so special.

My partner and I visited Como Maalifushi for a 10-night stay in what turned out to be the best holiday we have been on. From arrival to departure the service was simply exquisite. It all starts with the Como greet at Male airport whereby you are whisked off to the lounge at the seaplane terminal ahead of your flight across to the resort. The flight itself is an experience and offers amazing views of the maldives and all the various atoll’s. Upon landing at the remote Thaa Atoll you are greeted by wonderful staff who take you by boat to the resort. There we met by the friendly resort manager and our amazing butler Citti, who took us by Golf Cart to our water Suite (416), which is great for that impressive Maldivian sunset view. Citti was a true stand out, she was amazing throughout, always on hand, but never over-bearing and very sweet. She even gave us a few little surprises, which were very thoughtful. By far and away the best butler experience we have ever had. The overwater suite was understated luxury, very spacious (huge bathroom with large rain showers and a tub) with all the amenities you could wish for. The pool deck welcomed you into the lagoon whereby each day we saw various sea-life ranging from fish, turtles, rays and small reef sharks. We collected snorkelling equipment from the dive shop which we were able to keep throughout our stay to explore the wonderful house reef, beaming with marine life. We also kayak’d to the neighbouring small island owned by Como for a little exploration. The food was simply amazing. At Madi the menu is extensive, well balanced and rotated every few days for variety. Tai was a great place for sundowners ahead of a great dinner with Japanese / sushi twist. The Chef’s come out to say hello too, and are clearly very passionate about what they do. I am Gluten Free (Coeliac) and they catered for this perfectly, pretty much being able to adjust every item on the menu and even surprising me with thoughtful gluten free options too! Gluten free pancakes and waffles were a staple for me at breakfast. I cannot speak highly enough of the service and staff throughout the resort from start to finish. Special mention for Naail, Zulaal and Anne who catered for us most breakfasts, lunches and dinners with the greatest of smiles on their faces and impeccable service. There was often live music in Thila bar which added to the laid back, relaxed atmosphere. Activities wise we would highly recommend the dolphin sunset cruise, jungle cinema, Photo Shoot and of course a massage at the Shambala Spa. The spa lives up to its reputation and the dolphin sunset cruise was truly breathtaking. We must have seen in excess of 50 dolphins approach the boat and conduct acrobatics in front of us as the sun set. Fishing / diving / waterport equipment is top-notch and the staff are very knowedlgable on all things diving, fishing, and the ocean. Although we do not dive, other couples did whilst we were there and they mentioned how goo
