Absolute perfection and highly recommended for any newlyweds celebrating their honeymoon! Accomodation, food, beach, water villas, services and location were outstanding. The water villas is ok for non-swimmers but be aware of the trigger fish! Shout out to Nadja for an amazing service. Don't pay attention to the weather forecast as it's subject to change at a moments notice. The rain at night is a fright for some as it's a canvas roof. When it does rain, it quickly dries up. Keep an eye out for sting rays, sharks and turtles! The excursion; shark watching is definitely an experience but the dolphin watching and island hopping can be missed. The evening meal on the beach at the Crab Restaurant is a must (we went for two). The massage parlour; Madara Spa is not to be missed as we had an amazing massage! Thank you to all at Cinnamon Hakura Hura! We will definitely return! Read less

This was our first time in Maldives, and I'd like to say that we will definitely be coming back soon. We arrived at the airport early in the morning and came to the resort via seaplane. We were also told that there was a cheaper speedboat option, but 2 to 3 hours on a speedboat in rainy season was not something we wanted. On arrival, we were greeted by the sound of drums and handmade garlands from the staff. After a few minutes to do the check in, we were given a short tour around the resort before we got to our lovely over water villa. We got ourselves a sunset villa with a nice view, and the glass panel on the floor was great to look at the sea life in the evening. The restaurant had a variety of food selections and the staff their were very friendly too. We went to the resort under the All Inclusive, and honestly the selections of food and drinks was okay for us. Even though there was only a few days of sunshine during our stay due to the rainy weather, we made the most of it with free snorkeling trips and the shark feeding tour. Definitely a well rounded stay for us, but I think it's better to visit during the sunny season next time. Read less
