Radisson Blu Resort Maldives with 50 percent off on Sea Plane round trip 03 nights & above has a garden, shared lounge, a restaurant and bar in Fenfushi. Among the facilities at this property are room service and a concierge service, along with free WiFi throughout the property. The resort features an outdoor swimming pool, fitness centre, karaoke and a kids' club. I recently stayed at Radisson Maldives, and while my trip started with a small inconvenience regarding the view, it quickly turned into an unforgettable experience—thanks to Muby, the best staff member I have ever encountered! Initially, I wasn’t fully satisfied with my view, but Muby went above and beyond to make the impossible possible. Not only did he solve the issue quickly, but he also helped me plan everything throughout my stay—even tasks that weren’t part of his responsibilities. From arranging special experiences to ensuring I had everything I needed at all times, his dedication was truly remarkable. Muby’s hospitality, kindness, and attention to detail made my entire stay an absolute pleasure. He genuinely cared about making my trip perfect, and thanks to him, every moment was smooth, stress-free, and filled with joy. Tip for future travelers: If you want a full sea view, make sure to book a Sunset or Sunrise Villa for the best experience. Radisson Maldives is a stunning resort, but what truly sets it apart is its incredible staff—especially Muby. His exceptional service made my trip unforgettable. Highly recommend!

Set in Rasdu, Veligandu Maldives Resort Island features a private beach area. Offering a restaurant, the property also has an outdoor swimming pool and a fitness centre. Guests can make use of a garden. An Unforgettable Solo Birthday in Paradise! I visited Veligandu as a solo traveler for my birthday, and I can honestly say it was one of the best experiences of my life. From the moment I arrived, I never once felt alone. The staff made me feel like I was among friends – they were incredibly kind and treated me with such warmth and care that I felt extra special throughout my stay. It truly felt like I had a second family there. The daily itineraries were packed with exciting activities – I had the chance to go snorkeling, join a dolphin cruise, and more. Every day brought something new, and I loved being able to choose how I spent my time. The dining options were plentiful, and every meal was delicious. A highlight for me was the teppanyaki restaurant – the Teperniak Chef MrZ Francis was amazing! Because it was my birthday, they even put on a whole show for me, making the experience unforgettable. Evenings were just as lively as the days. There was always something happening – one night it was jazz, and another night was 80s disco, which was by far my favorite! The entertainment and atmosphere were perfect. The food was exceptional at all times – from the breakfast selection to lunch, dinner, and even the snacks by the beach. I savored every bite and truly enjoyed every second of my stay. Initially, I booked for three nights thinking I might get bored, but by the end, I wished I had stayed for a week! I also want to give a special shoutout to the diving team. Miss Sarah, Mr. Misbah, and the absolute star, Julia, took care of me from start to finish. Julia, in particular, was incredibly comforting and made sure I felt at ease all day. I wholeheartedly recommend Veligandu – not just for the breathtaking location but for the people who make it truly special. This will not be my last visit! I can’t wait to return with my loved ones to share this magical place with them. Thank you for making my birthday unforgettable!

Guests can pamper themselves at the Intimate Spa by THEMAE or partake in activities such as snorkelling, diving, wind surfing and kayaking; where all can be arranged at an additional cost. In addition, the resort offers a menu of bespoke romantic experiences and excursions which may be arranged upon request. The property has Chinese speaking staff. I would say everything. Friendly and helpful staff, great rooms, everything sparkling clean, well maintained, amazing food, perfect location with rich sea life. It was a perfect choice and we definitely recommend it. Thank you Drift for the amazing memories

They have many water sport activities to offer, the jet ski trip was so fun. The spa was fantastic and relaxing. The breakfast and dinner buffet and drinks were spectacular. The food was delicious. But the service in this place sets it apart from everywhere else I’ve been, the staff is super attentive, sweet, friendly and welcoming. They made us feel at home. I can’t wait to visit them again. Special thanks to Vivi Harvini who has assisted us and made sure we had everything we needed every single moment and big thank you to Mohammed jameel and Victoria who always took care of us during breakfast and dinner. And a huge appreciation for the Chef Chintaka who not only made fantastic meals but also was so nice to give me the recipes when I asked him for it. So many names I have not memorized sadly of the staff who left an amazing impression on all of us. What a fantastic management and resort.
