We (my wife and me) were on Vilamendhoo for 7 nights in the beginning of May. It was our 3rd journey to Maldives in the last 12 month' period (previous were Reethi Beach Resort and Kuredu). There were no free beach villas for reservation on Vilamendhoo web site, but we reserved a villa through Agoda.com. So my first recommendation on... More

If you happen to get out of bed early enough, you may find someone sweeping the beach or trimming palm trees as this place is picture postcard perfect. Scuba diving for 60 minutes in 29 Celsius water with out a wet suit was super cool. The marine life on the house reef will blow your mind. Watch out they probably... More

This is a lovely island with pleasant people, friendly staff and good accomodation. The transfer was quick and the seaplane journey, stunning. the seaplane lounge was also excellent. It is clean, comfortable and the food is good. The curries in particular are excellent. the swimming pools are as warm as a bath - the sea is actually a lot more... More

We were not informed that we need to collect our seaplane ticket at a counter outside the arrival hall at the Airport. There are so many hotel respresentatives around to help guests but none is from Vila. First we queued at Maldivian Air and was told to go over to TMA and then TMA said we need to collect our... More

We booked this holiday because we wanted an overwater hut experience. At 7 months pregnant, we left our 1 year old and 2.5 year old with grandparents so we could have a 'babymoon' before baby #3 arrives. When we landed by seaplane we were greeted by guest services at reception & told that the hotel was overbooked & we had... More

It was my first visit to Maldives and it was a really pleasant and memorable trip. My beach villa opened up to a nice view of the sunrise. There isn't anything much to fault on the service as the staff were helpful and accommodating. The response from reception was very fast as well. Food is served international buffet and each... More

Check in: We are back from a 3 nights 4 days break at Vilamendhoo. It was lovely – I have every reason to rate the resort a 5/5 in beauty, service and comfort. The check in from Male airport is arranged smoothly. The Crown and Champa lounge at that waiting area is spacious and clean. There is a shower as... More

Have to completely agree with other reviews in regards to the overbooking policy which irrespective of what the management say is well and truly in full force here. No excuse when people are spending upwards of £6k for a holiday and unforgiveable hence my overall raring. Yes everything else was amazing but wife in tears and holiday ruined on day... More

We stayed here for ten nights in October 2011. The resort itself is beautiful and unlike anywhere I've ever been. Really amazing. Vilamendhoo resort was nice and I would recommend it for an all-inclusive in the Maldives. The food was quite good and we always found something to eat. Let me say this: If you can upgrade (Jaccuzi BV and... More
