Adaaran Club Rannalhi - All Inclusive

This review must be longer than...

I arrived home yesterday and wanted to share the feedback. I lost my Dad in 2023 at the hands of the NHS and always spent Christmas Day with him, so this year I fancied a change and something different. What I got far exceeded any of my expectations, in my wildest dreams I could never have imagined the absolutely life changing time I have experienced. As a single woman travelling alone, this can be sometimes quite daunting when visiting unfamiliar countries and I need not have worried. From the moment I arrived I felt safer there that in some parts of the UK. Throughout the whole stay, you can leave your belongings anywhere and they are safe. I felt absolutely safe throughout my stay. The security is exceptional! The island is beautiful and idyllic with quite breath-taking views. It is a short 15 -20 min leisurely walk to get around the island with fantastic facilities. There are plenty of activities to participate in such as Yoga, Zumba or the Water Aerobics. Bibo does an amazing job to make sure everyone feels involved, especially if you are travelling alone which is amazing. The evening entertainment gives everyone a laugh and if you want you can just chill and relax, watching the Karaoke, for example there really is no pressure. The staff will make sure they do everything to make you feel welcomed and relaxed. There are some fantastic day trips you can book onto. I personally did 2. The “Island Hopping” was a fantastic way to experience the local island culture, some beautiful scenery with a guided tour as well as the adventure of jumping on and off the boat. On our trip we also experienced seeing the dolphins which was an added bonus! The second trip I chose was swimming with the sharks. Now, I must admit I saw the video and thought I might find it all a bit too much, but as I was up for a challenge to have the once in a lifetime experiences, I took the plunge! I was not disappointed. This was the most amazing thing I have ever done, after I composed myself. The staff were brilliant to make sure everyone felt relaxed, assuring them this was a something to enjoy and not to panic at all. The views you see are out of this world and I would encourage you to all experience this, you will not be disappointed at all! The restaurant serves such amazing food, everything you can possibly think of. You are allocated your own table for the duration of your stay and have personalised waiter service; I must say mine were absolutely brilliant! They were always happy, friendly, chatty and clearly love their work. You do also have an option to book additional dining options, which, as I love seafood, I chose this, and this was exceptional. The food was amazing, whilst sat eating on the beach with a great ambience. The attention to detail is great to see. A perfect experience in an idyllic setting. The room was amazing. On arrival, a fantastic welcome with the personalised touches, very spacious and the bed was so comfy! Complimentary facilities are pro

This was our fourth visit to this resort and it didn’t disappoint. Each year it just keeps getting better and better. The snorkelling is incredible. The accommodation is excellent and the food caters for all tastes and is of a high standard. The staff are friendly and very helpful. Mr Roshan went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. A special shout out to the Animator, Bibo, who does an amazing job in running all sorts of classes …. yoga, Zumba and water aerobics etc. The water sports team do a great job and can offer a wide range of activities. We did the snorkelling trip and hired a jet ski. Highly recommended. We will back next year.

We arrived by speedboat which took around 45 minutes. Check in was smooth. Lunch was extended for our arrival. We stayed in room 235 which was a beach villa. Room was basic but clean. Cleaned twice per day. Shower was not very powerful and hot water was a hit and miss but was still nice at the end of a warm day. Complementary water provided along with beach towels and snorkels/flippers. We were give table 69 in the restaurant which was our table for the duration of our stay. Same waiter everyday who was attentive and helpful remember our drinks order and coffee in the morning. Food was delicious. Plenty of choice. No chicken nuggets, pizza, chips etc which was a refreshing change. It was proper food. Meat and fish cooked fresh every day. They cater fir dietary requirements and allergies if requested. The beach was white sands. Sea shoes recommended as broken shells and coral wash up. Snorkeling was fabulous. We saw everything from fish to sharks and mantas. Amazing!! We booked seafood bbq and romantic meal on the beach. Cannot fault the service or food. The lobster was tremendous! We booked the shark feeding trip in the morning which was amazing. So many sharks so close to the accommodation. Fantastic experience. All in all a holiday to remember forever.

What an incredible island filled with amazing people, every day was so special. All the staff were so friendly and welcoming. No stone was left unturned to ensure all the guests are looked after each day whether it be in the restaurant or the bars or doing a water activity. Had a really special honeymoon here. Will definitely be back in the future. Special mention to Sabina who made every meal at the restaurant a delight with her wonderful smile and welcome and top class service.

I would 100% recommend this island. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. I traveled solo and felt safe the entire time. I was served everyday by a very tentative waitress called Simran who always remembered my drink and got me anything I needed. Dj Shane played some epic music at the beach parties which had me dancing ALL night. He also played every request i asked for Jayan is a talented singer/musician who entertained every single night. Bibo had such great energy, I attended all of his classes from Yoga to Aqua aerobics and Zumba...he was also a great host and showman. Shalitha was such a kind and friendly bar tender who made sure I was looked after. Ratina from Chavana Spa gave me an amazing massage (twice!l) Mohamed zayaan gave great housekeeping service too The entire experience was immense and wonderful. Also great place to snorkel with Nurse and Black tip Reef sharks.
