Kudafushi is a beautiful resort where we spent our honeymoon in May. THE VILLA 5/5 We stayed in a water villa. The room was big, quiet and had all the comforts. Good cleanliness level. The sea in front of the house is amazing. Surprisingly, the bathroom is the only part of the house without air conditioning. THE DRINKS 4/5 We had the all inclusive formula. The non-alcoholic offering is big, with lot of fruit cocktails. The alcoholic offering, unfortunately, is a bit limited. Some international cocktails (e.g. Mojito) are chargeable. THE FOOD 3/5 The resort has 3 restaurant, the main (north) included in the All inclusive, a Mexican and a Mediterranean, nice for celebrating special events or romantic dinners. The quality of the food in the main restaurant is ok: the local grilled fish is really good and fresh, however the offering is more or less the same every day. The lowest level for us was the Japanese theme dinner, when we got stomachache and the end of the dinner. DIVING AND EXCURSIONS 5/5 This is probably the best part of the holiday. The diving and snorkeling experience at Maldives are worth the ticket. I recommend in particular the diving experience and the snorkeling in the close island. The prices of the different experiences, however, are very high: make sure to check how much they costs you (incl. 26% taxes) before booking, to avoid unexpected bills at the end of the holiday. I really recommend to bring masks and snorkels from home since the renting cost is “just” 6 $/day plus taxes. This was a bit disappointing for us, but we had no choice. THE STAFF 5/5 Most of the personnel is really nice and professional: everyone salutes you in the resort. Honorable mentions: Roberto, our Turisanda Guide, Zian from the Main restaurant, Hussain from the Sea Edge (sunset) bar, Thanni from the Excursions. They were really friendly and warming with us. OVERALL EXPERIENCE 5/5 Even if there is for sure room for improvement, the Kudafushi restort offered us a 5 star honeymoon we will never forget. Thank you.

Best time ever. We stayed at the water villa and it was awesome. The coral are great and near, the quantity and quality of the water world is amazing, the water villa is big enough. around the Island, you have so many good spots to hang and enjoy the view, the restaurant and food (buffet) is amazing good, the variant of food selection is out of this world, and all the employees are outstanding and very nice. We had a great time with all of them, especially with Daniel. A special thanks to him and his support. The driving range was also very good and pofessional.

We are very happy we came to Kudafushi for our honeymoon! For our stay we were upgraded from the water villa with the pool to the presidential suite which made our experience even more unforgettable! We loved our honeymoon in this island, it is of the perfect size and well-maintained, we were stunned by dazzling colors of the sea. You can walk everywhere (bare foot if you wish). Aside from the main canteen (where I loved eating fresh fish for lunch) there are two restaurants (Mexican and Mediterranean), we visited both and very much enjoyed. Our package also included romantic honeymoon dinner, a couples massage and a snorkeling excursion. The home reef is really amazing with lots of colorful tropical fish, we saw baby sharks near the sunset spot, and also stingrays swimming by our room. We had a great honeymoon in this little paradise and created many happy memories! Thanks to the staff of Kudafushi for making it such a superb experience for us! And the transfer with the sea plane and seeing Maldives from above was a special experience on itself!

We visited for the second time, staying for three weeks. Everything was just as good as the first time, if not better. It was refreshing to see that some things had changed, like food choices and the drinks menu. As returning guests we were welcomed by many members of staff who were the same as last year and treated like royalty. Nothing was too much trouble and we felt like part of the family. We love everything about the hotel, but it is the staff that make it extra special. It is clearly evident that they all enjoy where they work and are looked after by the management, which from a guest perspective, shines through. They all go the extra mile to make your visit extra special, but those worth a special mention are Faizam, Daniel, Shube, Areej, Ziyad, HH, Sari & Nichard - thank you so much for making us feel so welcome. I have never been a lover of buffet food, but love the food here. Being a relatively small hotel, most of the food is fresh, it hasn't sat out under heat lamps for ages. There is a pasta bar that creates the most delicious sauces to order and a grill where Lis cooks the most amazing fish and meat to order. You can see the fish being delivered at the end of the jetty - you can't get much better than that. For snorkelling lovers, as we are, the house reef is incredible. We were lucky enough to see turtles nearly every time we went out, plus an array of stunning fish as well as octopus, sharks and lion fish. This really is an amazing hotel in paradise and cannot recommend it enough to those considering going to The Maldives. You will be made to feel so very special. We are already looking at going again next year.

Superb accomodation, super weather, excellent meals and friendly staff. We enjoyed the private pool, the nearby beach for direct snorkeling in clear water. Extraordinary manifold of colored fishes. White and fine sand on the beach. Two fine special restaurants, a great central swimming pool with enough deckchairs. The island itself is pretty for relaxing. A special glory to the dessert cooks, who create wounderful cakes.

Thank you for the wonderful time on Kudafushi. Cozy little island with a wonderful reef right in front of the villa, millions of colorful fish, sea turtles, lively colorful corals. We could swim anytime, even at low tide. Many thanks to the entire staff, especially to the front desk (Saamir!!, Katya), who fulfilled all of our wishes. All!! were always very friendly and tried to make the time as pleasant as possible (room service, gardener, spa staff, restaurant staff, excursion guides). The rooms were always clean, the dishes fresh and varied). It's a dream to be here and we'll be back next year! Thank you Kudafushi!
