We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to Kudadoo Maldives for making our 25th wedding anniversary celebration absolutely unforgettable. The beach vow renewal ceremony was simply magical and exceeded all our expectations. Every detail was perfect, and we experienced moments we will cherish forever. A special thank you to the entire hotel staff, especially to our butler Saeed, who was with us every step of the way during our stay, making sure everything ran smoothly. His dedication, care, and attention to detail made all the difference — he is truly the best! We’d also like to thank our waiter Abdullah, who provided us with exceptional service throughout.

We have stayed at different resorts in the Maldives during our yearly visit to the country and we can honestly say this has been the Resort and Experience that made us decide that this will be the place to be when we come to the Maldives. There’s really nothing to comment except that we wish we booked longer to stay here. Hussein, our amazing butler, made sure that our stay is nothing short of phenomenal. The customer service is the best. Food is excellent. Massages and the spa, we can’t get enough of them. The different dining experiences was a WOW! Housekeeping service is topnotch. You really have to stay here to experience it all. We can’t wait to come back!

We have had the privilege of experiencing some amazingly luxurious holidays, but this was by far the best! From the moment we arrived, the Kudadoo team looked after us with their exceptional care and attention to detail. Our journey to this private island paradise was nothing short of amazing, exceeding our wildest expectations. Our butler, Saffah, and his team were the epitome of hospitality. They curated our holiday itinerary with precision, ensuring every whim was catered to. They were always on time for every event and everything we perfectly executed – truly amazing organisation. When I thought I had lost a sentimental item, they went above and beyond, turning the resort upside down until it was found. This level of dedication and care is truly unparalleled. The food and wine at Kudadoo were excellent. The food was excellent, with fresh, locally and internationally sourced ingredients used to create a wide range of dishes. The wine selection was equally impressive offering plenty of variety. The Sulha Spa at Kudadoo is a haven of tranquillity. The spa treatments, which included massages and unique therapies like the Himalayan salt chamber, were the best we've ever experienced. The all-inclusive package allowed us to indulge in these treatments as often as we wished, further enhancing our experience. Our villa was breathtaking, offering stunning ocean views, complete privacy and wonderful snorkelling just off our deck. The snorkelling, diving and all underwater adventures were unforgettable, with the opportunity to explore the vibrant marine life. The "Anything, Anytime, Anywhere" concept truly lived up to its promise, allowing us to enjoy gourmet meals, spa treatments, and activities with effortless ease. Kudadoo is more than just a resort; it's an experience that will leave you feeling pampered, refreshed, and already planning your return. The team's dedication to providing seamless, personalised service is a testament to their exceptional management. We cannot wait to return and relive the magic of this incredible island. Thank you to the entire Kudadoo team for making our holiday truly unforgettable.

This is a very small resort, with exceptional service. You are assigned a concierge with access via WhatsApp and anything you ask for, they seem to have. There’s an amazing wine cellar and a great cheese cave, free massages, private yoga sessions, etc. I got a pizza with black truffles and was shocked when they had my favorite Brunello in stock. I love mangosteen and I think we ate a few dozen. The rooms are great, very private with great views. One day, we had a private breakfast on an adjacent island in an underwater aquarium. I booked this in conjunction with a trip to Singapore and made two mistakes. First, it was a bit rainy. I’ll go directly next time at a drier time of year. Also, I didn’t book the private direct plane, but a plane shared with other guests including an adjacent resort. Not a terrible flight, but I prefer things in my timetable. So, expect a return visit.

Me and my husband went to Kudadoo for our honeymoon and it was the best week ever! With the small guest count it truly felt like we had the whole island to ourselves. Our Butler (Hussain) was on top of our itinerary and constantly make sure that we were okay. The entire staff was very welcoming and helpful. Dreaming of this stay until we go back one day!

There are not enough compliments possible to outline how amazing Kudadoo truly is. I've traveled to over 100 countries in my life. I truly enjoy travel. This is hands down the most incredible place I've ever been with the unparalleled customer service. It is worth every dime you will pay. We even cancelled Four Seasons reservations to stay longer. The staff here are remarkable. They understand what excellence in hospitality should be at every moment. Thank you to everyone that took care of both of us. We miss you already. Everything from the butler, meals, drinks, activities, spa, wine and cheese sommelier, chefs were all included, and you really could ask for anything, anytime, anywhere. It's not just something they say. We jet skied to private islands where they anticipated our favorite cocktail, did sunset dolphin cruise with champagne, learned to sail, watched beach movies, and literally did spa treatments all 8 days! Do yourself a life solid and go! We already talking about when we can make the trip around the world to go back.

I recently stayed at Kudadoo Maldives and had a truly memorable experience. The island is stunning, the villas are incredibly luxurious and private, and the level of service is impressive. It’s a perfect destination for relaxation and recharge. One of the highlights of my stay was the wellness offering. I absolutely loved the yoga sessions with Geetha—she is deeply knowledgeable, attentive, and creates a calming, centered experience. Her guidance helped me connect more deeply with my practice. I also had fitness classes with Channa, who is equally professional and motivating. His sessions were tailored to my level and goals, and I appreciated his positive energy and expertise. While everything was close to perfection, I’m rating it 4.5 out of 5 because there were a few very minor details that could be improved to truly meet the “ultra-luxury” promise. However, overall, I would highly recommend Kudadoo to anyone seeking a peaceful, high-end getaway with top-tier wellness and personal attention.

This place blows me away with the incredible service every time! My butler, Shiham is like a genie in a bottle. Always attentive and knows what I want before I even think about it. I wish I could take him with me. ! The Sommelier gave us an amazing wine and cheese experience, whos passion for his work made the whole experience amazing The General Manager always greets us with a warm and friendly attitude. ! The Water Sports Guy (forgot his name) was awesome, he stuck by me until I perfected Flyboarding, and always found sharks and dolphins for us to watch. Ranjan the bartender made the most amazing drinks and always kept my glass filled. Nigam was an amazing waiter who always got our orders right to perfection. The massage Staff gave us daily massages that I wish I could take them home! Everyone knew our names as if we were the only ones on the island. Kudadoo Private Island is truly a slice of paradise! From the moment we arrived, we were treated like royalty. The personalized service is unmatched – every staff member went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. The luxurious overwater villas are breathtaking, offering stunning ocean views and complete privacy. The island's "Anything, Anytime, Anywhere" concept is a game-changer – whether it's a gourmet meal, a spa treatment, or an adventure, they deliver it with effortless perfection. The food is world-class, with fresh, locally sourced ingredients and a wide range of culinary delights. The private island's sustainability efforts are also commendable, from solar-powered energy to eco-friendly initiatives, showing their commitment to preserving this pristine environment. Kudadoo isn't just a vacation; it's a transformative experience. We left feeling refreshed, pampered, and already planning our return! Highly recommended for anyone seeking unparalleled luxury and serenity. Kudadoo is truly in a league of its own!

Kudadoo is so wonderful! We spent an excellent and unforgettable holiday on the island. The whole island is very quiet which makes me feel private. The food is really nice and has too many choices!( Trust me I'm Chinese) We had a lot of activities like handline fishing, snorkelling for manta rays, scuba diving, jet ski and so on. Our butler Naarjy is passionate and experienced. He arranged everything clearly and give us a quick response when we have requests. Also, he prepared a birthday surprise for me. Our diving instructor Cole is very talkative and enthusiastic. We spent three divings together and he always protected us under the sea. The general manager Akira and other stuffs are all very nice. When we met Akira, he would have a chat with us. Hope to spend my future holiday in Kudadoo again!

I want to express my appreciation for the attention to detail and level of service at your resort. The personalized gestures, such as towel art and the luggage cover, truly surprised me. Thank you for taking care of me and my mother during our stay. My butler, Shiham, did an excellent job, as did the water activities instructors.

The AAA experience is the best ever, the staff at the resort make you feel like you are the only ones on the island. A true VIP experience. We have stayed at some of the best resorts in the world, and this is right up there, if not the best we have experienced. We couldn't recommend this place highly enough!
