Wonderful Family Getaway at Villa Park Sun Island

We enjoyed an incredible ten-day vacation at Villa Park Sun Island with our family. The staff always made us feel welcome, even as a group of ten! We were thrilled with an upgrade to the Water Villa rooms, which were stunning. Waking up to the clear blue water and sunny skies, with the occasional warm rain, felt surreal. Sana was an exceptional host. Issayas, our waiter at the Southern restaurant, was fantastic—kind, attentive, and fun! He made our stay extra special and we appreciated him greatly. Rachel always had a warm welcome for us at the restaurant. The food was excellent—especially the variety of vegetarian curries we enjoyed. The chefs were friendly, always happy to chat and assist as we chose from the food on offer. We loved our time on the beach and by the pool, with Sandip at the pool bar tirelessly providing drinks with a smile! The three pool attendants went out of their way daily to ensure we had sun loungers and spots in the sun or shade as needed. There was plenty to keep us occupied on the island—from sunset fishing trips and snorkeling to aqua fitness and canoeing. We also loved the daily trips to see the sharks and rays swimming near the boardwalks and watching the heron or stork surveying the area. Every moment of our stay was memorable, and we fully recommend it! The staff are an absolute asset to Villa Park—always attentive, kind, and welcoming. Thank you for all your hard work in making our trip unforgettable!

#maldiveshotel Villa Park (Ex.Sun Island Resort & Spa) Once known as Sun Island*, **Villa Park in South Ari Atoll has quietly reinvented itself — not with flashy luxury, but with **warmth, space, and soul**. This isn’t a tiny boutique hideaway. It’s a **1.8-kilometer island sanctuary**, where you can walk for hours without seeing another soul, find your own stretch of powdery sand, and fall asleep to the rhythm of waves — all while being steps from one of the **richest marine worlds on Earth**. All rooms feature AC, minibar, smart TV, free Wi-Fi — but here, technology fades. The real magic is in the details: morning coffee on your private terrace, barefoot walks at dawn, and the sound of palm fronds like whispered poetry. Explore: 🤿 Snorkel straight off the beach — turtles, blacktip sharks, clownfish in vibrant coral gardens, 🐠 Dive with **manta rays** and even **whale sharks** (seasonal, but unforgettable), 🧘♀️ Spa treatments with coconut oil, herbal wraps, and sea breezes. And yes — bikes are free, yoga mats await at sunrise, and the staff greets you like an old friend. But what makes Villa Park special? 👉 **Space**: one of the largest islands with plenty of privacy, 👉 **Marine magic**: world-class diving and snorkeling right offshore, 👉 **Authentic vibe**: no pretense, just honest Maldivian hospitality. This is the Maldives for those who want **beauty without fuss, adventure without stress, and peace that lasts long after you leave**. 📍 #VillaParkMaldives #SouthAriAtoll #RealMaldives #IslandSoul
