Our family were well taken care by Waldorf. It's truly unforgettable experience. Breakfast is amazing, many options cater your any favor on the day. Dinner has 11 restaurants to choose from. Housekeeping was done in a very proper time. Staff are friendly with smile as always. Tennis court, Padel tennis court are well maintained, water, sunblock, insect repellent are well prepared too. We love everything here! Thanks for the hospitality.

During our stay at the hotel, we went to the kids club. On the first day, my two-year-old was frightened by a local Maldivian staff member while being taken care of. On the second day, he refused to go there anymore. My two sisters told me that they were not allowed to play public games, I have talked to the manager and they said that they wanted the children to come according to the schedule, but the schedule that day was to go to the garden, but they didn't take the children to the garden for a long time, and the children stayed from 10 am to 2 pm. Is it so difficult to manage something that children really want to do? One Indian and one Russian. I am very dissatisfied with them, they have no patience and don't know how to guide children. For example, when you see a two-year-old trying to enter a room that they are not allowed to enter, what do you do? Do they just shout: "You can't go in!" Or do they squat down and say to the child: "How about we go there to play with cars and tell you some stories?" Our children are smart and we never treat them in a disrespectful way. I think the hotel is not serious enough in hiring the staff for the kids club. This made me very dissatisfied during my stay. Because of these staff, I will not choose Waldorf Astoria and will not recommend it to my family and friends. We didn’t choose that place to experience such unpleasant things! During our stay at the hotel, we went to the kids club. On the first day when my little child only 2yrs in the baby-sitting, he was frightened by a local Maldivian employee. The next day, he refused to go there again. My two elder sisters told me they were not allowed to play the public games and I already talk to the manager they say they want kids to follow the schedule but in that day the schedule is play in the garden they didn’t bring them to the garden for a long time, the kids stay there from 10am to 2pm, there is no reason managing some works that the children really want right?.One Indian and other Russian. I’m unsatisfied about themselves,they had no patience and educate to leading children. For example, when you see a two-year-old child trying to enter a room which they are not allowed, what will you do? ?" Our children are very clever,we never treat them in a disrespectful way. I think the hotel did not hire the kids club staff seriously. This made me very dissatisfied during the stay. I won’t choose Waldorf Astoria because of these employees, And I won't recommend it to my family and friends either. We choose there, not to experience such unpleasant things!

advantage: *The speedboat departs from Male in 45 minutes. China Eastern Airlines flies directly to the island in the evening and can quickly reach the island that same day. *Large room area, new facilities, starting from 237 square meters, wide roof *There are many restaurants and the taste is average. We recommend The Ledge (signature burger, Portuguese grilled chicken, chocolate smoked ice cream cake) Yasmeen

The marine ecology of the artificial island is not very good, there are fewer fish, and the water is not so thorough. Compared with Conrad Conrad Island under the same group, the overall service is not as good as Conrad Island. It is much worse than Dasiji. It didn't meet the so-called six-star standard of Waldorf Astoria. The advantage is that this hotel is very big, and you can play more with children

Stayed for 3 days and the wifi was broken every day. There was no wifi on the island. It was too uncomfortable. I couldn’t do anything. The menu on the ipad was not updated. Wifi I don’t know if tens of thousands of dollars a night can’t guarantee wifi

This is our second consecutive year staying at the resort and we had a most wonderful time again. At check in, we received a free upgrade to the Grand Villa (room 707) and the view was gorgeous. Thank you Ameeq of reservations for making that arrangement! Our personal concierge, Yoonus, took excellent care of us throughout our stay and made our visit extra special. To add, the resort is incredibly well run - everything ran like clockwork, from the buggy pickups to the meals at Tasting Table and The Ledge to housekeeping - service was always efficient and on point. We have already made plans to return next year (hoping to stay at the 1 series villa this time around to try out a different view). Really highly recommend a booking - will not disappoint!!

We appreciate your recognition of Ameeq for arranging this special touch and Yoonus for his exceptional care throughout your visit.

The breakfast buffet was amazing . Dinner experiences all well curated. So much to do ( activities/ excursions ) we were spoilt for choice. Mohamed made our villa 137 spotless daily. Manager at Nava Rogers was amazing to say the least. Special mention to Marica our concierge ... Wow ….the best ! she made our trip! Very thoughtful , … and went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable all through. And wait for this…. Checked in if we got home safe. Impressed . Will definitely be back again.
