Ifuru Island Resort Maldives - 24-Hours Premium All-Inclusive with Free Domestic Transfer

This is a true review that comes straight from my heart and is not 1% sponsored. Ifuru Resort is a 5-star luxury resort rated 100 out of 100 that I highly recommend. The facilities, underwater environment, restaurant, bar, friendliness of the staff, cleanliness, and beauty of the island were all excellent. There are no water villas, but the beach villa is very close to the beach. As soon as you enter the water, you can see colorful corals and giant clams, and the house reef is close and great. We snorkeled every day and had long free swims with turtles, eagle rays, and black tip sharks. It's like this even if you just go out in front of the beach villa instead of taking a paid excursion. First of all, Ifuru Resort, newly opened in 2023! Located in Raa Atoll, Maldives, we traveled by seaplane + speedboat. Since it's a new resort, there aren't many reviews, so I was worried and decided to refer to the resort's official Instagram and YouTube introductions. Among Koreans, we seemed to be the first to visit. When I actually went there, it was a 5-star resort so great that I could give it 100 out of 100! Stylish and luxurious room conditions and facilities (even the hair dryer is Dyson), truly warm and friendly staff (I still really miss Ari, Rocky, angel, Juli, Nikki, Quineee, kuva, Rudy isuru, muni, RN Adhla) , Mode, a very kind female employee at the waterfront restaurant who always had her hair neatly braided (I suddenly can't remember her name), and Rochelle, a very kind and warm general manager, who remembered and looked after each and every resort customer, and cared for and loved the employees. We were impressed by the appearance, and the resort staff were very courteous and friendly, as if they were guests invited to their own home, and they did their best to take care of us. That's why we really want to go to Ifuru Resort again. I still look at videos and photos taken at Ifuru every day.

We came here to celebrate our 25th anniversary. We stayed for 7 nights in a sunset beach suite. The facilities in our room were excellent. The suite was immaculate and housekeeping kept everything perfect. Nothing was too much trouble. There was a little confusion on our booking about our package but this was handled by the manager and his team. The food was excellent an amazing range and plenty of it. The staff in the restaurants were very courteous and friendly. Very much the personal touch. They went above and beyond to ensure you were happy. The bars were also lovely. The staff took great care of you and came round taking drinks orders. The staff made you feel at home and ensure you were completely happy, using our names and quickly picking up on personal preferences. Take a look at the pictures of the resort, it is postcard perfect and kept that way with the help of the amazing behind the scenes team who are constantly working. The App on your phone was perfect for arranging anything including the spa treatments, entertainment, restaurant reservations, housekeeping. We had a couples massage and it was excellent. Once you are on the island you will have the most amazing holiday. Be prepared for a long trip. We came from the UK which was 22 hrs end to end. Check out what your local transfer is like. We were lucky we had a very short wait and had nothing to complain about. Do your research and find out how long your wait will be and book your flights accordingly. It was a holiday to remember. Compliments to Marcel and his team.

Great villa with full beach access, lovely standard of food and quality wines, top drawer service - only issue is their "free" transfers which appeared from what we heard to be organised very much for the convenience of Ifuru not the client - lots of people had 5,6,7 hour waits in Male either arrival or departure...they tell you very late (8pm previous evening) and wanted us out of our room by 430am when our Male flight was 1140am, not the best end to the holiday-when I complained they sorted the situation professionally , but you have to be very insistent to ask for other options earlier if you want to avoid a similar situation - but all in all a superb resort, and lovely staff, especially Adam who got the chef to cook me gluten free pizza and pasta which is quite a feat given the remote location, thank you.

We just spent an outstanding week at the beautiful Ifuru island and loved every second. From the moment your plane sets down and you're escorted via drums, music and a welcome necklace into the beautiful reception area for a glass of fizz, you instantly feel welcome and special. Check in is a breeze, you're whisked away in an electric buggy to your room where a wristband opens to a spacious, modern, super clean room. The TV directs you too download the island app where you can call for a lift, get your room clean, book one of the fabulous restaurants etc. The main pool area and the Hubba Hubba bar is a lively, friendly place, you will be waited on with a smile by the wonderful staff, Kuva is genuinely one of the friendliest, nicest people you could meet, he goes above and beyond to make your holiday a special one. That's not too say the other staff are not the same, I could list all their names as each and every one are a credit to the resort and seem genuinely happy to have you. The evening entertainment was excellent, really good fun, great music and a really nice setting. The beaches are immaculate, with pure white sand and lots of beautiful drift wood adorning them, make sure you visit the secret beach through the white gates, untouched most days and sand like flour. Awesome spot. If busy you'll need to get a sun lounger by the pool early if that's your thing, but there are plenty in the beach. Book your restaurants early as well, the food is simply superb. That's not to say the buffet option isn't good, it's fabulous, but the restaurants are a very nice little touch. All in all a superb place, fully deserving of the 5 star reviews it seems to get every time. Don't think about it anymore, just book it. It's awesome. You'll love it as much as we did I'm sure.

We have been in Ifuru Island resort this November and I must say it was say it was amazing holidays. The rooms are spacious and has absolutely everything You need, beach is magical, the house riff amazing - we saw so many fishes, sharks and turtles, even one morning so many dolphins were so close 😍 but extremely my biggest gratitude for Waterfront team - Rocky, Moosa, Mridula, Ari, Sanket and their manager Yadeesh - they have organized for us best lunches and dinners! This is best staff what I have met in Maldives!! 🫶🏼

We went to Ifuru for our honeymoon and were blown away by the natural beauty of the location. It really is paradise, our villa led directly on to the beach and dazzling blue water. The wildlife and greenery is stunning, walking between the Social House and our villa seeing bats, crabs, lizards etc. Our villa was great, very clean and comfortable. The bathroom with a standalone bath and inside & outside shower really made use of the surroundings. Being able to walk a few steps from our bed to be in the lovely Maldivian sun gave us the perfect location to relax, both secluded and with good access to the beach and lagoon. The lagoon was home to multiple beautiful fish, perfect for snorkeling. I'm a complete beginner, but the equipment was all available and the lagoon is not too deep. I really enjoyed this. The staff at Ifuru are superstars, we were greeted on arrival by Ayaan, who made it clear that he would ensure we had our best ever holiday. He was not wrong, he was always available to sort anything we required during our stay, be it reservations to the fantastic restaurants or booking excursions and the spa, or even just to get a lift around the island. Our villa was kept spotless and with lovely added touches each morning and afternoon, thank you Kasun. And the staff in all restaurants and bars were fabulous, with very high quality food and drink on offer. We couldn't recommend Ifuru more it was everything we wanted for our honeymoon and more. Thank you all

We enjoyed an awesome two weeks stay at the Ifuru hotel. The Island has a beautiful beach, a nice house reef with a lots of colourful fishs, sharks (not dangerous) and a turtle. The hotel itself is absolutely fantastic. Spotless clean and spacious rooms, delicious food at the main restaurant as well as at the a la carte restaurants and very nice cocktails, drinks and wines at the restaurants and bars. The staff was very kind, helpful and attentive. We would espacially like to thank Adam and Miyeoung at the main restaurant, Kuva and Queniee at the Hubba Hubba bar, Angel at the beach club, Yadde, Mode an Delia at the a la carte restaurants. Thank you all for making our stay so special! We would love to return. The only thing that could be improved is the number of umbrellas available .

It is a lovely place with very friendly and helpfull “all star” stuff, nothing is problem here. Excellent, tasty and multifarious food. Offering a lot of entertainment, sport or relaxing activities. Paradise on the Earth. Great vacation
