It has been a week since we've come back from paradise on Earth. The beauty of the Maldives cannot be described, but the amazing experience of staying at Dusit Thani Maldives, which was simply perfect, can. To be perfectly honest, almost everything exceeded my (very high) expectation. The resort is a beautiful jungle/garden and cycling through it is a pleasure for all the senses (especially in the evenings, when you can smell frangipani). We have stayed in one of the ocean villas. The views were simply stunning. The villa was very spacious and cosy, and even though the furniture is not brand new, it is full of drama. Plus, they have the most comfortable pillows my head had ever touched. The big highight-and what convinced us to stay in the resort-is the Thai restaurant Benjarong with it amazing chef and staff-we were usually attended by Novika (foodie as myself, so she could provide great recommendation) and James, who was also super nice and attentive. After having dinner at Benjarong the first night, we booked all of our meals there (with the exception for the night of Eid celebration, when we dined on the beach with live local music and dancing-thanks Sharif. I especial recommend the soft shell crab with curry - powder, the lamb chops, and my favourite dish in the universe-the Thai green curry. My husband fell in love with the dessert with water chestnuts and ended up eating it twice a day 🙂 (and of course I ended up taking the Thai cooking class). Another highlight for the foodies was breakfast. while the choices of "western" food, pastries is impressive, my very favourite (and I had it every single day) was the noodles station. Also, make sure you try the passion fruit jam which is to die for. You can always ask Mona (yet another, cheerful foodie) for recommendations. Moving from the food... Above the Thai 'restaurant is the Sata bar. My husband took the cocktail making class there and we met a very gifted bar attender Amita.

Everything about this property is perfect! The location, service, quality of food, tranquility and everything else just exceeded our expectations. Every meal we had was amazing! Vakku restaurant deserves a Michelin star! Chef Ushan went out of his way to prepare us some fabulous dishes. We had dinner at Vakku restaurant which was one of the most memorable! The service by Ahameday and Mudassir made it even better. Although all the names are not mentioned here, all the staff at this hotel was excellent! This is exactly what you would expect 5 star service to be. The spa treatment was also one of the best! Seeing a sting-ray swim underneath while getting a massage was priceless! Another one of our highlights was snorkeling near the blue hole with so many beautiful marine life Including reef sharks. The Overall experience at Vakkaru Maldives was simply amazing!

- everything was amazing!! the island is beautiful, big enough but not too big. The intimacy of each customer is a priority for the hotel. - the entire staff was absolutely incredible, I’ve never experienced such quality of service. thank you for your kindness - food was delicious: especially breakfast and Crab Shack restaurant. It was amazing. - a lot of cool activities were proposed - sand bank + the beach were more than beautiful, there’s no word. The color of the sand and of the sea is stunning. I could stay the entire day on my sunbed which were amazing by the way, and a very kind waiter was bringing us some water / cocktails - our beach room was huge, so nice, the bed was amazing. The bathroom was the bathroom of my dreams - no mosquitos at all - arrival at the airport, with a private lounge.

We had an amazing stay in one of the beach villas. Island is gorgeous and this is a boutique hotel therefore quite personal. Naveen was our fantastic host who really made every effort to ensure we have a great stay and enjoy some of the activities we did. We never saw housekeeping staff yet our villa was cleaned/done up twice a day. The most surprising for me was the quality of the food whether it was room service or one of the restaurants; the food was really very good (not always the case even with 5 star hotels we have stayed in). All in all an amazing experience, would highly recommend.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the exceptional service and care I received during my stay at Reethi Beach . I would especially like to commend the manager, Ali Nasheed, whose professionalism and dedication made my experience truly special. I was impressed by the high level of service and the warm hospitality from the entire team. Your resort is a place where guests feel valued and well taken care of. I will gladly return and will wholeheartedly recommend it to my family and friends. Thank you! Ivaylo Gyurov

We loved the staff and size of the beach bungalow . Our location 138 was also perfect location for proximity to dive school and privacy Dive school also a great setup and the house reef , whilst motorised coral was incredibly abundant with shark, turtle , parrot fish etc

It was a simple but perfect accomodation, the staff was very professional, hard working and kind. The room was clean and comfortable and the home made food was warming and delicious. Over all, this is a perfect accomodation for spending some days in the Maldives.

The resort is beautiful. We were at the lagoon villa overwater ,great view ,great stuff,great diving team,I'm diabetic, so the chef and team take care about it ,and even by checkout they give me a box with no sugar cookies ,great massage team also

Beautiful hotel, perfectly located, with great staff and house beach and reef. They also serve the best food of the island. They organise all the tours if you don't want to move from the hotel :)

The island is small hence everywhere is accessible and walkable. Dive company linked to the hotel makes it fuss free for divers. Direct access to the bikini beach too!

The food was excellent and the staff could not be more helpful and all done with a lovely smile -very rare-as for the complete resort -it's paradise !!

Every single thing. From the moment we arrived to the moment of departure everything was like a dream
