Kandima Maldives is by far the best resort I have visited in the Maldives! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warm smiles and exceptional hospitality. The resort itself is breathtaking, with stunning views, crystal-clear waters, and beautifully designed villas that offer both luxury and comfort. What truly made our stay special was the amazing staff. Every team member was incredibly friendly, always greeting us with a smile and ready to assist. A special shoutout to Song at Zest, who was exceptionally welcoming, helpful, and made our dining experience even more enjoyable. The food was fantastic, with a variety of delicious options catering to all tastes. The activities and facilities were top-notch, making it a perfect destination for both relaxation and adventure. Overall, Kandima Maldives exceeded our expectations, and we can't wait to visit again. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a luxurious and memorable Maldives experience!

My husband and I recently spent 8 wonderful days at Sun Siyam Iru Veli. We celebrated our 8th Wedding Anniversary there. This is not my first time in Maldives, so I'll first highlight some very important things that might be of interest to Tourists. Not sure if this is promotional, but we got the following with our 7 night, all-inclusive, Ocean Villa with Pool booking: - Free round-trip seaplane transfers for 2. Last time I was in Maldives (at a different resort), I paid $450 USD for my seaplane transfer. - Free airport lounge access for Sun Siyam resorts guests, after arrival in Male airport and while you wait for your seaplane transfer to your resort. This lounge access includes food, massages, showers, etc. Not many Maldives resorts have their own airport lounge to wait at. So this is important especially when you could be waiting 2 to 3 hrs before getting your seaplane transfer. - We also each got 100USD spa credits which we made use of and got massages. The massages were amazing and you're looking down into the reef as you're getting massaged. Highly recommend. - We got a jet ski credit. We made use of this and my husband enjoyed the jet ski. We added the drone recording option while jet ski-ing. It costs less than $25USD and it is worth it. Not included is the Jet Car. We also did this and added the drone option. Only the Sun Siyam resorts have the Jet Cars available. They are super cute, picturesque and worth it. - We also got 3 complimentary excursions with our booking. A sunset dolphin cruise, a snorkeling excursion and an excursion to a local island. Many Maldives resorts do not include excursions, so this was a plus. The dolphin cruise was our highlight, we saw dozens of dolphins and some were super close up. - We got 1 daily free Shisha. Another thing that many Maldives resorts do not include. Now for the resort itself. We stayed at Villa # 601. I think it's the best Ocean Villa in terms of location.

Excellent value for money. If you want to get away from the world, have your own private beach and few or no other tourists this is the place to be. Staff exceedingly friendly and helpful nothing was too much trouble. This is not a resort but a true Maldivian experience.

I enjoyed pretty much everything.

I enjoyed pretty much everything. It was a super place to go for a one week holiday. You're a captivated audience on such a small island but there was more than enough to keep you occupied for the week. The food was excellent, the staff extremely supportive and I think that RIU have a near perfect arrangement for the 'all inclusive' experience.

Amazing resort I would highly recommend.

Amazing resort I would highly recommend. This was our second stay at Kandima and our experience exceeded the first. Good selection of meals provided throughout the day and the staff were very helpful and friendly. Our shuttle bus driver Gasimm was very patient and informative on the ecosystem. Excellent facilities for children.

Perfect place for total relaxation. Maybe a few more activities for the ‘oldies’ would be good. We loved the bingo and Kahootz but the party music wasn’t our style. Enjoyed the saxophone player and the Irish singer. During the day maybe trivia or games?

Overall It was amazing experience with wonderful view at the Aqua villa, the staff was nice and very friendly. Time of travel was too long and exhausting, as it took me almost 17 hrs to reach the Island as I had to take a domestic flight which adds more time to my original long flight. The food was Ok buy not great, there was not a lot of variation and the menu had many repeated food. Also the menu should offer more details about the food because I don’t know much about asian food; so I didn’t know what I was eating sometimes.

I dont recommend. Fisrt time in Riu and the last one. Food and drinks really really poor. always the same. very annoying. You are treated like a $. Beds very bad very used mattress. I asked to change but they dont change. a really bad smell in the shower. Was a really bad experience in this hotel. Avoid if you want a really good vacay. manager is very unhelpful.

Everything was good apart from the grilled seafood section was the same for 10 days, I only eat grilled food as am diabetic. However it happened that the i chatted with head chef Janaka and he offered me to make different grilled fish but we were leaving on this day when we chatted. Just to mention I rated kandima 10, but all what am saying here is just for improvements only, the gym looked very old and dull with the blue color, the mats were very dirty we decided to stretch in the room instead. We loved the staff saying good bye when we were leaving by boat my wife cried lol she cries all the time 😂 thanks again to everyone especially Luka, Amr, and Tohbi.
