There are unlimited snorkelling excursions and non-motorised water sports. And, the longer you stay, the more complimentary diving or spa treats you get.

Our first trip to the Maldives and it was an extremely memorable one thanks to the crew at Ozen. Everyone was extremely friendly and helpful, especially Rahul who made sure that we always ate well. Affan, who always made sure that we drank well, and Ayush, who took care of all of our needs and was always quick to respond. Rahul and Ayush even made sure we were introduced to the executive chef and even asked for special dishes for us, especially during breakfast (they know we love masala dosa), and during dinners at Indoceylon, the Sri Lankan / Indian restaurant. We never needed to order at Indoceylon, Rahul made sure that we had a great meal and he and chef would always plan up a feast for us. The gin bar usually isn’t crowded and Affan, took good care of us and recommended great gins and cocktails. The staff are very attentive. Furugaam and Ayush knew exactly how to stock our mini fridge and realized we loved the beetroot crisps (they are extremely good) and instead of stocking beetroot and potato chips, they would stock 2 of the beetroots. They also realized we loved champagne and the minute we sat down anywhere, always had champagne ready, even in our mini fridge in the room. We loved that it was all inclusive - so that we didn’t have to think any time about costs or that they were trying to upsell us. The snorkeling trips are a must - they do complimentary morning and afternoon trips and we went almost every day (we stayed for 7 nights in total). On the last day we saw 5 sharks, an eagle ray, 2 turtles in the morning snorkeling trip and a sleeping nurse shark on the afternoon trip and a stingray on the boat trip back. For the food, they tend to be milder in taste (as they are trying to cater to everyone), so if you want something that’s stronger and spicier, ask the waiters to tell the chef that you can take spicy to prepare the food spicier. We realized this on the first night when all the curries at Indoceylon were very mild, but once we told Rahul, he made sure that it was all taken care of and our best meals were at the Indoceylon restaurant. Definitely do: M6M - we did this in the day Indoceylon Snorkeling - both morning and afternoon trips were good Fishing - was fun! It’s a line that you throw in. We caught a small fish and let it back in the ocean. Can skip if you don’t have that much time: sunset cruise. For us, this was just a cruise out in the late afternoon out and back. The snorkeling or even fishing seemed much more interesting. Glad that we chose Ozen and we hope to be back. Read less

Amazing experience. Ayush, our butler has been great and always there to help. We stayed in Earth villa and Wind villa with pool. Spectacular sunset views from the pool. They have great selection of drinks and food 24/7. And finally a stellar service. We would definitely come back again.

This is our third stay at this OZEN and it always gets a little more comfortable and better for us each time. The over water villa was refurbed and kept perfect during our stay (thanks Sheskanta). The resort manager and general manager were present and hands on should it be needed. As always the entire staff was professional. Food, beverages, excursions and on site activities and events were top notch. Thanks to PJ / Danielle / M6M staff / snorkeling crew and all). M6M did a wonderful gesture as it was our 50th wedding anniversary!! Ozen does not get a lot of notice on the TA forum but it should as value provided and price paid tilts toward the customer. We will be back! Read less
