“Lux Maldives - Paradise”

My wife and I visited this island for my 50th and we could not fault anything about it. Our water bungalow was excellent and the snorkelling sensational. The room was beautifully cleaned each day by Ashraf and we were incredibly well looked after. The restaurants and food were excellent and the bars dotted around the island were great. Without fail...

“LOVE it”

Reviewed May 16, 2013

This place is great! - writing this while sitting in the leaving area and sad to be going home. Its a bigger island than some of the others but that means you can take a run round it to burn off some of the excellent food (2.5miles roughly). Alot of people on here complain about the food or lack of... More

All were great, and we ate far too much! The beaches and the pools were beautiful. There are many hotels to choose from in the... More

“Not the dream vacation we expected”

Reviewed May 7, 2013

As this was our honeymoon we searched for a special trip. We paid a lot for our stay here, but we expected more from it. Our sea plane flight to the hotel was delayed by three hours. During that time we could stay in a private lounge on Male. We paid for the whole day (all inclusive package) but lost... More
