The whole trip was not very satisfying. First, the seaplane time I requested is at noon on the 22nd, so that I can have a half-day tour of Male. As a result, I was arranged for an early morning seaplane. The hotel said that because the time of the seaplane is not under their control, and the time of the next day's seaplane will only be known after 6pm before 1 day .Second, I don’t know whether the lock of my luggage was broken by the seaplane staff or the resort staff. Anyway, the lock on my luggage was completely missing between the seaplane and check in the resort. Third. neither the birthday room decorations nor the cake that was promised to me was delivered. I was sick that day, so I didn't remind or ask, but I think the hotel completely forgot, which is a big mistake. Fourth, I told that I am sick and uncomfortable, can I ask for some hot soup for breakfast? The front desk said that there is no way, you only can eat whatever the kitchen prepares, which I can understand, But the front desk didn't even have a word of concern and greeting! I feel so indifferent!
I was very happy to choose you as my first vacation after the covid ,but now I feel that this is a complete mistake.
The resort is new and beautiful located on its own private Island. It is unfortunate that you need to fly into Male, take a second flight and then a boat to the resort. You can only book the flight and boat through the resort and not directly from the airline so there is a premium price to pay. The ”lounge” at Male airport is the public area of the food court where you can select one option from a limited menu most of which you are told they do not have any of. The resort itself is very beautiful offering a 24hr bar and snack service as well as a buffet restaurant and two additional restaurants (Italian and Steakhouse) for which you need to make a reservation. During our 8 nights, we tried daily to make a reservation at the steak restaurant which does not have fixed opening days and depends on guest occupancy so sadly we were not able to enjoy this experience as many other guests who also experienced the same. We were able to make a reservation at the Italian restaurant once during our stay which meant we had no choice but to eat at the buffet restaurant where the dishes did not change much on a daily basis for the duration, it got old by the end of our trip and we couldn't wait to get to the mainland for some other types of food. The staff is all very nice and friendly and there are daily activities organized by them or many areas of beach for peace and quiet as well as a swimming pool with a swim-up bar and plenty of loungers. Overall it was a good experience it's just a shame there is not more choices or chances to try the other restaurants and food.
The island is a little small, the environment is ok, the service needs to be improved, and the bad thing is that the water in the room is the lowest price mineral water in the ordinary bottle. We also pay for the water of the voss. If you look down the date, it is a month. It’s expired, and many things in the hotel are expiring soon. This shouldn’t be the international brand hotel. Another Fairmont room has all the water voss available for free...
The environment can give 5 stars (after all, it’s a sack)
The quality of service needs to be improved. The staff is very polite. They can speak Chinese. Thank you, hello... I could provide 5-star service, but when I left the island, I got the travel time wrong. The original reservation email It was explained that I was leaving by plane at 12:35, but the hotel staff arranged for me to leave until 13:45 in the afternoon by boat. As a result, when I went to the island airport, I couldn’t find my flight information at all (in fact, it was already the night before leaving the island. I checked with the front desk for confirmation, but the front desk clerk insisted that my appearance time was in the afternoon, saying that the time of the email would be changed), and at the same time, I couldn’t get on the 17:05 plane to leave Male’ and could only change to other flights. Hotel service is really not flattering [anger]
The room booked is claimed to be 5 stars, but I can’t feel it. In fact, it’s not much different from the 4 stars next to it. [Pick nose]
All-inclusive price, the food is relatively average, it can only be said to fill the stomach, there are few choices and the quality is average
The hotel itself is very nice, the rooms and everything. The only problem is that it is far from Male airport. This resulted in a very late arrival at the island on the first day (6pm). We left very early on the last day (1pm) and had only 10 minutes for lunch on the last day because we had to wait for the seaplane in advance. Also, the seaplane is very expensive.
The newly opened inn has four side-by-side rooms, clean white marble with lush vegetation, colorful bougainvillea overflowing from the wall, and a semi-open-air shower room for a comfortable shower in the sun. Meals are mainly curry rice noodles, beef, chicken, and fish, 10 US dollars per meal, with a 16% environmental protection tax. There are rich activities and entertainment, the deserted island of Valla is a must-visit, it is as beautiful as a picture, the tailing beach sandbar Sandbank is a must-visit, fishing and snorkeling, etc. are all at your discretion according to your own abilities and physical strength. The boss is called Uchenx, who is very nice, always busy like Miss Rabbit in Peppa Pig, polite without smiling, neither humble nor overbearing, and concise without losing integrity. There are three beaches on the island, two of which require long clothes, and one can wear a swimsuit and is very beautiful; the rest are for your own experience, so I'll stop here.
Nice view and location if you stay at sunset pool water banglow. Spacious, room was very clean eventhough pool needs more cleaning and aircond servicing (water dripping). Some staff are friendly and helpful, thanks to Firdaus for keeping the room clean and restaurant staff Sagar, Azizah and Chaminda. Some staff were racist toward non-white with double standard services. Our host, he tried his best which requires improvement. Activities booking were a hassle for us due to booking pax limit eventhough resort was 98% occupied (?). Resort is not Muslims friendly, served pork and alcohol openly at restaurant. Not mobility friendly resort, be prepared to walk everywhere, 200-300m one way to restaurants, 300-500m one way to water activities centre, bar and reception. No buggy service (but you can repeatedly call for favor from your host and receptionist everyday and be prepared to wait around 15min- 1 hr) and no bicycle. Ongoing tug and war with host and reception in resolving guests' needs and issues. Receptionist/main reservation need to improve and provide clear communication instead of repeating same reply contents
Because I was considering eating and drinking on the island after I hit the road, I chose this high-end Italian brand. Sure enough, the Italian food lived up to expectations. The Italian bread at the buffet was delicious, and the ham, cheese, and pizza were all very good. The decoration style of this hotel is more Mediterranean style. The bathroom has a semi-open roof and good lighting. Don't worry, both the shower room and toilet have roofs.
There are three restaurants in total, buffet, Italian restaurant (on the second floor of the swimming pool), and Japanese restaurant. Japanese food will be disappointing for Shanghai tourists. The sushi rice is like ice cubes, and the sashimi is just local tuna and salmon, with very few varieties. The Russians are said to be very happy.
The advantage is that you can snorkel just outside the beach house, so you don’t have to spend money to go elsewhere. The disadvantage is that all the waiters, regardless of their yellow skin, speak English, and their service to Asians is obviously cold. On the contrary, the local waiters are very serious and run around before and after.
It is customary to tip here, and no one will force you if you don't. I saw many foreigners tipping for breakfast. Bring $1-5 for this and just do as the Romans do.
This hotel has an agreement with the seaplane company and requires flying to the island. There is a mandatory fee of US$480 per person. This should be taken into account within the budget.

XXIANGFEI1. Slightly far from Male airport, the cost of going to the island is more expensive. The inland plane on the return journey speeds up the boat, and the seaplane on the return journey should allow sufficient time. The return seaplane also went to two other resorts to pick up. People, from the departure time to Male airport 1 hour 45 minutes.
2. Breakfast at the hotel is ok. Epicure is more suitable for Chinese tastes than blue. Breakfast buffet with drinks, dinner buffet drinks a la carte.
3. The hotel's children's club is good, the venue is large, the staff is enthusiastic, and the children are happy.
4. The hotel's subsea restaurant can be experienced. There are three packages for adults. We ordered two packages with drinks and one children's package for a total of $ 455.
5. I brought two children and booked a sand house and a water house for 5 nights. The hotel prepared two small beds in both rooms.
The feeling of vacation is generally okay. Tips are recommended, don't give too little. Tips of $ 1 are not available now, it is better not to give them. (Franklin on a hundred dollar bill said: Too much tip is like a big fool, and too little tip is a big fool.)
