Centara was the least impressive compared to the previous resorts, it doesn't have the qualifications of a 5 star resort. Rooms and food were OK but nothing exceptional! Average housekeeping service, they didn't come to clean the villa only after calling them twice in the afternoon.. we celebrated the new year's eve there and it was the worst NYE party we've ever had in Maldives. No fireworks, no ambience, no party gadgets for the kids (party hats, flutes, head bands..) we left 20 minutes after midnight!! On our departure day we were ready at the reception at 2:00pm as requested by our resort coordinator but we ended up boarding the seaplane around 5:30 pm!! That was our first visit to Centara Grand Island Resort and it certainly would be the last! Unfortunately NOT RECOMMENDED!…
Lovely resort well maintained and courteous staff along with mouth watering food and cocktails. Scenic infinity pool with a lovely spa and amazing water sports and poor WiFi .What more do u need on a holiday . A best place to unwind and would highly recommend this place to stay for a family or a romantic vacation. Very fast and efficient service by all the staff from the front desk to the boat driver to the bartender and housekeeping. Keep it up and will come again .
The resort is absolutely beautiful and so is the staff there. Everyone is very helpful and always smiling. All precautions are very well taken keeping in mind the covid and yet there has been no compromise on the luxurious experience they provide. Tip: Ask for Alokbhai on the reception as you check-in and you will have not to worry about anything, gem of a person who will always want to serve you in the best way.
I would love to thank ..chef Francis , Ripon (his golden smile and warn welcome to the buffet is amazing .and laxman for making my 5 days really amazing.. this is a great place with mostly everything perfect.just remember to book all inclusive package which includes alcohol unlimted . .. we were sorted .. the sport dept head is a charmer.. he quotes " 95% of the beauty of maldives lies under water. So please go snorkelling .. I swear he was correct. Please do go underwater. Always at the tell your room number as you enter else you might be asked thrice and it can spoil your mood.. Al in all its heaven .
2nd time in Maldives, brilliant escape during pandemic. had a wonderful week off from overall madness. really felt a much needed vacation. food is good, staff friendly, sun&ocean never fails you. if you look for carefree break, Maldives and Centara are definately for you.
