We came here for our 25th wedding anniversary and 50th birthdays. We arrived by seaplane to a lovely greeting from the staff, very welcoming, we then had a tour of the facilities then shown to our bungalow 418, we stayed on the adults only side, our bungalow was lovely, had its own secluded beach. Our cleaner Azim was lovely, there was nothing he couldn't do for us, he was so friendly. The food was amazing and our waiters Saleem and Sharuwanu were lovely, they were very friendly and the service was excellent, also the chefs were helpful and would cook anything for you. The variety of choice was brilliant! In the evening the lovely bar men Menaka and Nandana would serve the best cocktails, very strong some of them haha! But the choice of drinks was great. We went out snorkeling for an hour most mornings where you could see an array of sealife, also my husband did the scuba diving which he filmed and he saw sharks, turtles, rays and a lot more. As it was our birthdays and anniversary, our lovely cleaner did a special message in our room and we were greeted with a special cake in the restaurant, so lovely. We had spa treatments too, the ying and yang for couples was out of this world and the spa staff were so polite and caring, very nice, highly recommend. We also did the shark feeding at sunset, would recommend as well. One thing that did surprise me on arrival was the number of hermit crabs around, by the end of our 12 days I was fascinated by them.

Stunning island, incredible rooms, fantastic staff. Snorkeling the hotel reefs much better than the boat trip (personal prefference).
