The hotel

Spread across two stunning islands in South Male Atoll, with gorgeous white beaches and sea views as far as the eye can see, this resort is a Maldivian paradise. Guests can enjoy crystal clear infinity pools, a range of delicious dining options, and water sports in the lagoon. Take relaxation to the next level, by indulging in a spa treatment at one of the two spas including the Ocean Spa which features 8 over-water pavilions, before watching the sunset with a cocktail in hand.

Dear Olhuveli , Confirmation No: 2430706 (Prince ) We understood from Olhuveli that you are not interested in returning the money to us and only give us a voucher. We made it clear that we could not use the voucher, so we offered it to another family (after you made it clear that there was no problem selling it). This family arriving in the Maldives on mid October. **We marketed** Olhuveli to them, and after they decided to go ahead with it, Olhuveli refused to give them use our voucher, so they made a reservation to Olhuveli via Booking.com (so crazy I can't believe I'm even writing this down) After understanding that Olhuveli refuse to help, **we request an immediate refund** Please take care of this as soon as possible. Thanks! Read less

What a beautiful place to stay. I don’t even know where to start: we are a family of three (two adults and one four year old son). We stayed for six nights on the over water villa and had a personal house cleaner that cleans our room every morning and evening. You read right: twice a day! The prices of the beverage is typical for resorts and hotels, so nothing much to complain about. Extraordinarily friendly workers everywhere. Special thanks to Chippe the restaurant manager, Amir, Hemant, Swami and Babul for making jokes with us every day and bringing a smile to our faces anytime we come to have breakfast or dinner. Let the few pictures speak for itself how beautiful and magical this place is. A paradise! A small tips for people that like snorkeling often: bring your mask along. It will be quite expensive to borrow it everyday. Big thanks to our host Clovie for making our stay marvelous. See you very soon again! Read less
