Very attentive staff, especially Zahid who was with us throughout our stay.
Very clean facilities, including kids club.
Food is good. Massage is amazing.
You can go to the resort via the speedboat which I consider an advantage.

Resort is well kept and its location is perfect as it is close to Male, only a 20 minute speedboat ride (arranged by the resort) however the resort is showing its age. Breakfast and dinner buffet was awesome, nice variety of foods. Beach is beautiful, there is a coral reef (Coral garden) around the island for those who like to snorkel. Grounds are very well kept.

Both family and couple orientated the place is just fantastic, despite some hiccups the overall is very good . Is very peaceful and the island(s) quite big so not easy to get bored. Sea life is vibrating and staff excellent. Many activities to do . Try stay in bungalows with pool. This will raise the quality a noch, that will definitively make your stay more pleasant.

So, let me tell you about our recent getaway to South Male...
So, let me tell you about our recent getaway to South Male Atoll - it was like stepping into a postcard. From the second we landed, it was all about those island vibes and clear blue waters.
Our digs were top-notch, I'm talking overwater villas and cozy beachfront bungalows with views that made us never want to leave. And don't even get me started on the snorkeling and diving - we swam with manta rays and checked out some seriously cool coral reefs.
But it wasn't just about the underwater action. On land, we had spa days, tried all the water sports, and chowed some seriously fresh seafood. And let's not forget about the locals—they were so welcoming and friendly that it felt like we'd known them for years.
Long story short, South Male Atoll is the ultimate chill spot. Whether you're into relaxation or adventure, there's something here for everyone. We left feeling totally refreshed and already planning our next trip back.

Very well organised - you are taken care of as soon as you arrive until the security at the airport. You don’t lift a finger, luggage is collected/delivered. Transfer by boat was very efficient - excellent service

The place is amazing, the watter and everything you seen in the photos and videos is exactly the same or even more beautiful.
Thake care about the UV solar power, on our stay was maximum on the scale and a 50 spf is highly recommended as with 30 spf you will get burned and believe me is happening so fast 🤦🏻♂️
The temperature is quite constant and even during the night is very hot.
Seaplane transfer can be quite expensive.
Definitely worth visiting at least once in a lifetime!

The Vellasaru experience starts from the point you come out of the airport to the point you hand your bags at the airline counter. It was amazing throughout.
The staff at the resort were extremely friendly. Breakfast was great. Room was spacious and clean. The island was really well maintained. And honestly we could not ask for more. Views were amazing, marine life was decent and plenty of activities to keep you busy for 5 days. My little one did not want to leave the island and wanted to buy a house in the Maldives 😀
The hard rock hotel over all and the cross marina , the neighborhood resort saii all good and having variety of restaurants with different cuisines , biking around the resort and marina is so nice and easy to access all facilities and restaurants, special thanks to sukiana who assisted us from the time we reached until check out , she was so detailed and she leads us for everything
The service was exceptional. Staff were outstanding made us feel welcome every moment of our stay. Especially Mooz working on the beach bar, was amazing! A beyond expectations experience. Our Butler Shark organized our stay very nicely and was always available for last minute changes. Definitely coming again! The food was the best that we’ve ever had in a hotel. Absolutely amazing!
well , everything was on point . staff are amazing ( Reda , Ajay and Agra ) they were so nice and helpful and very very professional. food was amazing in everything single detail . I have been around in many resorts . but honestly they are different. they are exactly the meaning of how to be professional and friendly in the same time . Thank you guys . you made our vacation
As a first trip abroad ever for me, I can say proudly that I spent a splendid time and I experienced a fine vacation at Saii Lagoon Maldives!
Beginning from the hotel adjacent location to the airport, to the nicest staff and crew.
We enjoyed the privacy and the cleanliness of the island, which is connected to other two once, where it made the trip extra fun!
I checked so many hotels before going to Maldives and most of them were quiet far and overpriced. Transfer from airport cost more than the actual price you pay for one night stay. But Adaaran Club Rannalhi was the only hotel I came across with reasonable price for transferring from airport to the hotel. Only cost me 160 dollars by ferry both ways.
The rooms were clean, very comfortable, and the staff was amazing. The hotel is well maintained. Both check-in and check-out were easy. The HRH Maldives is a true sample of excellent hospitality. Especially thanks to Carlton, the manager, who went over and beyond to help make our stay enjoyable, trouble-shooted professionally any issues arising.
Hotel was great, 3 islands, a lot of space to walk and feel isolated, even hotel was almost full. Location and beaches are magnificent, staff is friendly, cleaning rooms and providing tower and water change 2 times a day was very nice, diving center and house reef for snorkeling are great service too, has watersports, bars, everything you need.
Hard Rock Hotel Maldives incredible team of workers are excellent, impressively with great attention to details making our stay and experience so memorable and unforgettable. Very wide selection of great food, wines & cocktails. Private dinning on the beach is a must! Thanks so much to Chef Ruben, F&B Chaya, Team Yusef, Server Dane & Afsar.
The Island and Reef are just amazing to do snorkel. The ambiance is calm and slowlife. The hotel is not luxurious but everything you need, maintaining the essence of the island and nature, which is amazing. The food buffet has a lot of variety and every day the theme changes, amazing grill and pasta.
Hotel was 15 minutes from Male - the food was exceptional for all inclusive (Prabu - Head Chef) was excellent delivering anything to our room that we required (Fruit Basket & Prosecco) complimentary.
The staff were second to none for service - nothing was a problem they would go the extra mile.
Amazing hotel with breathtaking views. The staff was attentive and anxious to help with whatever was needed, special thanks to Adam and Manuddin for everyday attentive care. The villa and food are excellent. Also, thank you to Billal for exceptional dinning experience in Deep End.
Almost eveything was perfect :
- The island is really beautiful & connected to the other family hotels so you have a lot to do
- Our butler was very nice
- All the restaurants are really good
- The activities are amazing (special recommandation to swim with the nurse sharks)
Everything from location and facilities to room and food. It was all so perfect. I have been to two other 5* resorts in maldives but this resort is the biggest I have ever seen. It has got everything covered for adults and kids to enjoy the tropical Island getaway.
Great resort team.. dealing with you like you are there close friends.. everything are exceptional., I will never hesitate at all to go back to them again and again.. special thanks for the hotel manager Mr. Sajesh as well Ms nuha.. THANK YOU SO MUCH..
