Family Friendly Hotels in Kaafu Atoll, Maldives

Perfect stay in paradise! Kudos to Shafeeq for the great housekeeping, twice a day! We were lucky to join Bandos 52nd Anniversary Celebrations and met so many friendly staff members and returning guests. Reef was great for snorkelling. We will be back.

Don't mention how much regret it has, and spent too much money! I booked through the agency, I took the children myself. After I went there, I didn’t need an extra bed. The children would have to add 46 dollars a day. The Chinese dinner should be taken care of. For every meal, add 25 dollars, which adds 96 dollars a day. The bar has to pay for it. I searched for all-inclusive, this hotel under the all-inclusive package. After I went there, I said that there is no all-inclusive statement through the agency! The agent pit is dead.

Staying at the Sheraton Maldives was an incredible experience. Out of all the resorts I’ve visited, this one stands out as amazing. They offer so much to do and keep you well informed. We had a personal assistant, Jennifer, who was fantastic in introducing us to everything and making us feel comfortable. During our stay, Russell helped us with all our needs. While waiting to check into our room, we enjoyed a relaxation room equipped with air conditioning, couches, mini beds, and showers. As soon as we arrived on the island by boat, we were treated like royalty with scented lavender cooling towels. We were greeted warmly as we boarded the deck and given a heartfelt goodbye when we left. The breakfast was outstanding, featuring a wide variety of options. The beaches and water were pristine. My favorite part of the trip was the amazing staff—they were friendly, kind, and went out of their way to make us feel special. Everything was arranged seamlessly, from our boat trip to the island to our return to Malé. I can’t wait to go back!

The swimming pool sand house is built on a new island. All facilities are very new. The room area is larger than the water house. The beach and the sea are right outside the door. There is an open-air shower and the privacy is very good. Special praise to the housekeeper Cora, who coordinated many problems after busy work.

The room was very nice, the service attitude was also very good, and there was a beautiful view outside the hotel. As for the food, since we only stayed for one day and had to go to the resort island, we couldn't have breakfast, and the hotel staff also prepared breakfast for us to take on the road. It was good.

Great hotel, we are delighted! We rested from March 30 to April 6, took a water villa with a jacuzzi (300 rooms) 1. Convenient location. Not so close to Male, does not border any industrial islands, so it was clean and comfortable. But it’s not that far, it’s only a 45-minute boat ride, so you won’t get tired after a long flight. The transfer costs $190 per person, which is not that expensive compared to other hotels. The boat is large, beautiful and comfortable. 2. Sea and beach. The water is super, incredible color, very clean and beautiful, the coastline is along the entire perimeter of the island. The beach is different on each side, so you won’t get bored. Somewhere there is sand like flour and a perfect entry into the sea, somewhere there is coral chips, but this doesn’t really bother you, you can swim without special shoes. Also on the eastern side there is a reef and good depth, where you can see fish. The reef isn't super cool, but you'll still enjoy it. You can swim with a mask for hours, it's very exciting. In general, in the Maldives the water is usually shallow and knee-deep, on this island there is no exception, but there are quite a lot of places where you can go deep without touching the bottom with your feet, you don’t even have to walk a kilometer across the sea 😂 masks are available for rent, take your own 3. Villa. We took the water villa with a jacuzzi on the east side, where the rooms are for adults only. The villa is in excellent condition, even better than in the photo, good repair, entry into the water is simply superb. There is little coral on the bottom, so you won't scratch your feet. The ebb and flow of the tides are strong and the water level changes noticeably. But you can always swim. Moreover, from our view we could immediately swim to the reef with fish, this is very cool! The rooms have vests, they are very comfortable to swim in. There are sun loungers on the veranda, so you can sunbathe at home. Moreover, the villas are very private, no one will see you or disturb you. At night you can’t hear the waves hitting the beams, it’s very quiet and calm. The Jacuzzi is super, open-air, it’s great to lie in it at night and look at the stars. The rooms are cleaned constantly and water bottles are filled every day. I really liked that the fish were swimming right under the villa, it was mesmerizing. And at night the fun begins! Fish swim to the light and there are sooooo many of them! Mini sharks and stingrays also swim; they are also present during the day, but less so. In short, the spectacle is fire. 4. Nutrition. We took FB and walked around with huge bellies 😂 The food is excellent, we have never seen such a luxurious buffet anywhere else. There is absolutely everything! You definitely won't leave hungry. A hundred types of meat, seafood, a bunch of vegetables, fruits, restaurant dishes, we actually tried a lot of things for the first time. Separately, it is worth mentioning the desserts, they are the most delicious!!! Breakfast has everything you need, lots of egg dishes, everything for toast, yoghurts and cereals, etc. The full package includes free water for every meal, and juices and coffee only for breakfast. On Sunday there was free champagne for breakfast. There is also a huge cheese plate for every meal, which is a plus for me personally. There is Parmesan, and blue cheese, and Gouda, and Cheddar, in general, all cheeses. There is also cream cheese. 5. Hotel territory. It is very big, there is room to walk, a lot of greenery, real tropics. Free entertainment: ping pong, darts, billiards, table football, regular football, basketball, volleyball. From paid: golf, tennis, badminton, padel and something else. But for all inclusive it’s all free, it seems. We played golf and enjoyed it. There are also water sports such as jet skiing, kayaking, etc. This is all paid, but for all-inclusive it’s either free or a discount, I don’t remember. There are also various excursions, but we didn’t take them. They also take you for free every day to the house reef, a 15-minute boat ride. There really are more fish there, I saw turtles!!! In general, you can go a couple of times. 6. Prices are for reference. Wine in a restaurant starts from $55, cocktails around $16, beer $10, soft drinks around $8-10. Kayaking is 32 dollars per hour, jet skis are like 130 for 15 minutes. Golf 20 per person unlimited time, tennis 20 per person per hour.

New resort on a paradise island. Great beach, liked the guys in water sports - all the equipment is new, working and the staff themselves are pleasant to talk to. The staff in the main restaurant is very smiling. They greet you with drums and see you off wonderfully, very atmospheric. Lots of food, good choice, delicious tuna, sometimes good meat. A lot of everything is included in the meal plan, for us it was even too much. The room is very hot, you can't live without air conditioning. We were at other resorts - there the villas have higher roofs and thatch on top, protecting the villa from overheating. This is not the case here, the villa is burning hot in the sun. The villa itself is very simple, like a house at a recreation center in Russia) there was not enough opportunity to connect the phone to the TV, more modern sockets, chargers. The air conditioner in the beach villa hangs opposite the bed, it is almost impossible not to catch a cold. The room includes a lot of drinks, wine. I don't know who can consume so much. As for me, it is a bit excessive. The hotel is new - there is no vegetation yet, it is very hot to move around the island, as there is no shade yet. There are breakwaters on the main beach opposite the beach villa, I did not see them in the photo. In fact, they certainly save you from the waves, but they spoil the frame) for beautiful photos I had to go to the water sports area. But the island is wonderful! Although not big. This is our third resort in the Maldives, I hope to return someday if the resort grows)

Not long after the hotel opened, the surrounding snorkeling environment is average, there are no corals, and there are few fish. It is far away from the four seasons. The design of the water house is very good, the filming effect is very good, and the food quality is very high

Very beautiful! This island is relatively small, with few people and quiet environment. The service staff are very nice, the food is also very exquisite, there are snacks and fruits in the room, and there is enough drinking water. You can go swimming and snorkeling directly in the sea from the terrace behind the room, or you can pay extra to take a yacht to go snorkeling, which is nice~
