Reviews summary
This summary was created by AI, based on recent reviews.
Powered by AI

Le Méridien Maldives Resort & Spa receives accolades for its pristine rooms boasting spectacular views, although occasional maintenance and shade issues are noted. The hotel's idyllic location is a highlight for many guests, offering close encounters with marine life and breathtaking sunsets. While the service is generally celebrated for its attentiveness, some guests have faced delays. The resort's atmosphere and cleanliness earn high marks, contributing to the luxurious ambiance, despite isolated reports of a subpar breakfast. Amenities are abundant, yet some suggest the need for improved service follow-up, and opinions on value vary, with some concern over unexpected costs.

Overall, the hotel leaves a very decent impression.
We lived in a villa on the beach without a swimming pool, We had four people, two adults, two children, we were given extra beds and we were basically well placed, the only nuance was with air conditioning, it blew quite hard and especially the area where there were extra beds, so we didn't use it.
The area is very well maintained, green, you can walk barefoot everywhere, the sea is chic, the coral reef is very even alive and bright, is in the middle of the lagoon where the rocks are visible at low tide, we got there on our own. We were given swallows for the whole vacation. Everyone looked, saw a reef shark, rays, fish, the kids were thrilled.
The food is beyond praise, especially the Japanese restaurant, everything is delicious.
There are no questions for the bar either, the minibar was replenished regularly, the drinks are decent.
Since this is the first time we've been to Maldives, I don't know how it works on other islands, I'll write about my impression. Indeed, in the early days I was a little stressed by the sound of a generator near the main pool also hydroplanes that were constantly landing next to each other. Also a little embarrassing at first was the treatment for insects at 5:00 p.m. daily.
The kids club unfortunately didn't live up to our expectations, maybe our kids are old enough 07
And 09 years old, but they were frankly bored there and after two attempts, we gave up going to the kids' club.
We didn't see any special animation or entertainment after dinner, mostly walking on the night beach, watching crabs, feeding fish. Lightweight Instrumental
music was at a beach restaurant.
They cleaned the room well, though they didn't always make it to the morning application before lunch.
As for the mosquitoes, they do exist, since we did not use air conditioning as I wrote above, slept with the doors open and did not use a fumigator for the first days, which had consequences in the form of rather itchy bites. The effects have rectified, the fumigator has been turned on and the lights have been turned off in the surrounding area, and the problem has almost levelled off. I think it's not a downside to the hotel, it's a nuance to do with the wildlife that surrounds it.
There were no negative impressions during the holidays, the staff is very friendly, the general manager personally greets and escorts guests. There are Russian-speaking employees. Overall, the atmosphere is very relaxing.

Exceptional hospitality, great food and beverage programme. I was so pleased to see the exec chef Asaf Tasdan at almost every table in every outlet throughout the stay. It’s so great to see the chef interacting with the guests in a very sincere way and really taking great care. The food in every outlet was outstanding. Riviera was a special highlight but the quality of ingredients and menu concepts throughout were really special. The wine list is extensive and reasonably priced. The cocktails were innovative and well made. Rooms are comfortable and while they don’t have much personality, the beauty of the resort and the great service make up for it. Special thanks to our room attendant Aru, who could not have done more for us, he was incredibly helpful and thoughtful and the room was immaculate after he’d passed though and he took the initiative to supply extra water or coffee capsules without us even having to request it. He is a real asset to the hotel.

The view from our room, the activities, the restaurant, and everything else exceeded our expectations.
The regular room cleaning was of high quality and the associates took care to refill the water and change the towels!
The IBBA in charge of our room was friendly and very helpful to us.
Of course I want to come back here again.

Our experience at Le Meridien Maldives Resort was nothing short of spectacular, and it’s the incredible staff that makes this place truly unforgettable. This was our second visit, and it exceeded all our expectations yet again!

A huge shoutout to Sandy and Torsha at the Kids Club for taking such great care of our daughter and keeping her entertained with love and joy. You made her feel so special, and we could relax knowing she was in the best hands.

To Aysha and Yossi in housekeeping, thank you for your attention to every detail. Our room was always immaculate, and the thoughtful touches you added daily made us feel pampered and at home.

Jaya at the front desk, thank you for handling our endless requests with a smile. You helped reschedule, reserve, and accommodate every need of ours without a hitch, making our family feel welcomed and cared for in every way possible.

And of course, Gerryd, you are a true gem. Your attentiveness in the restaurants made every meal an absolute delight, and you always anticipated our needs before we even had to ask. We couldn’t have asked for better service.

To the entire team, 5 stars just isn’t enough to reflect the outstanding hospitality and customer service you provide. We are already looking forward to our next visit. Thank you for making our family vacation unforgettable!

We had a great stay at the Le Meredien Maldives, our home away from home for 7 days in April 2024. They made our 25th anniversary extra special. The facilities were fantastic but it was the staff that truly made our stay exceptional. We booked the Sunrise Overwater villa and were upgraded to the Sunset Overwater villas. The hotel sent us a reminder email to pay for the seaplane transfers from the Male airport to the resort. The resort itself looks quite new and is constantly maintained by the staff given the tropical climate. We received an anniversary cake and bottle of wine when we checked into the villa. Everyone was really friendly and staff members took time out to check on us during our meals. At the risk of missing someone, we wanted to recognize these staff members who really went out of our way to make our stay exceptional. We will be back!

We spent a week at this hotel and enjoyed every second.
The entire island is very lovingly landscaped and invites you to walk.

We booked half board and were very happy with the option to choose a 3-course á la carte menu in three different restaurants.
All food was good quality and very appealing.

The entire staff is incredibly friendly and attentive. We particularly liked the possibility to quickly clarify reservations or questions via WhatsApp chat.

Originally we booked our stay split between an Overwater Villa and a Beach Villa with pool. However, as we liked the Overwater Villa so much we were able to change our booking on site at short notice and spend the entire stay in this room.
Here again a big thank you to the team for making this possible so easily and quickly.

The fantastic bathroom with the large panoramic windows and the possibility to start snorkeling directly from the private terrace and to see so many sea creatures was just great.

We can also recommend the Sunset Dolphin Cruise without restriction. An absolutely great experience to be able to see these animals in the wild and drive towards the sunset with a cool drink.

In summary, we can say an absolutely successful holiday on a paradise island.

We decided to celebrate our 40th anniversary in the Maldives, a destination we wanted to experience for quite some time. With the sheer number of resorts to choose from we opted to read reviews to narrow down the choices and decided on the Le Meridien. We chose correctly. Upon arrival at the resort after a spectacular scenic sea plane ride from Male we were warmly greeted by Thomas the resort manager and his colleague Alessio. Alessio gave us a tour through the lovely resort and pointed out native plants and wildlife. He made us feel very welcome. Upon arrival at our over water sunset view villa, we were filled with a sense of awe. The layout of the room was perfect and the views were spectacular. The surrounding waters were teeming with fish and the house reef, which was a close swim from our villa, was an amazing snorkeling experience, like being immersed in an aquarium.
We highly recommend the all inclusive package to fully experience the variety of the excellent cuisine offered at the four main restaurants which included quite a variety of drinks soft and hard. The chefs are very attentive and go above and beyond to enhance the culinary experience. The level of service is beyond compare and the staff always welcoming and friendly.
The house keeping staff who came by several times a day made sure our room was always tidy and that our pantry & mini bar were well stocked.
Our favorite part of our vacation was when Alessio and his staff surprised us with an anniversary celebration with provided traditional Maldivian nuptial costumes in a private pavilion with champagne, cake, flowers and they even played our wedding song. They also decorated our room and drew a lovely bath filled with flowers.
A special thank you to the associates Nahud, Xavii, Vishan, Devin, Pradeep, Jau, Altho, Xanyf, Asaf, Adam, Rishmeer, and all those whose names we missed that made our stay special and memorable.
In summary, this was an absolutely wonderful experience and we would love to make the 24 hour journey again to enjoy the delightful and warm people at Le Meridien Maldives.

We stayed at the Meridien for 5 nights, and couldn't have asked for a more blissful and relaxing time. Having spent 450+ nights at Marriott hotels, this was by far the best service and experience ever.
The rooms (we got sunset overwater villa) and overall amenities were incredible. Constantly serviced and everything kept in pristine condition, service requests met so quickly.
I'm a huge foodie and found the breakfast and all the restaurants to be top notch. Better Australian steak than 99% of restaurants in Australia at Veela. All the food is really fresh, super tasty, presented beautifully, huge variety, the ambiance of each restaurant authentic to their proposition. Great to see the head chef Asaf always in the restaurants, interacting with the guests.
We did a photoshoot too and the results were beautiful, such a great souvenir of our time. They had a lot of activities each day, I tried yoga, pilates and it was all amazing.
The spa was incredible, what a treat! And the house reef simply stunning.
The entire resort felt really 'boutiquey' - never crowded, always peace and quiet, all the other guests were lovely & respectful, even the kids in the pool were super well behaved (which is not the case with most family-friendly resorts).
The best part was each and every staff member working so hard to make each guest's time unforgettable. They were so good at problem solving with you when things came up e.g., it rained our last couple of nights and we couldn't do our dinner on the beach, but quickly a teppanyaki dinner at Tabemasu was offered as an alternative.
Amazing work to GM Mr Thomas and his entire team for creating such a seamless experience in such a remote location.
I could write so much more about the best holiday ever, and we simply can't wait to come back again and celebration many more important life events together!!

Beautifully and modernly furnished rooms (overwater bungalow) with direct access to the sea. The bungalows with pool are particularly recommended!

Picturesque white beach and unique sea. Huge variety of fish and other sea creatures, which can also be admired from the jetty and from your own terrace!

We really like the opportunity to walk around the island on the beach.

Different restaurants with a wide variety of dishes make the holiday very varied. The specialty restaurant "Tabemasu" in particular is an experience that you want to repeat again and again!

Very friendly and courteous staff without exception! Everyone speaks very good English!

Arriving by seaplane is recommended and very pleasant with the stay in the hotel's own lounge at the airport.

We decided to book all inclusive on site and can recommend it! The prices for individual dishes and drinks are quite high and with AI the specialty restaurant is also included.

We are delighted!!

Environment:
The resort has a fantastic sea view with Tiffany blue color,there are abundant fishes hanging around just under the water villa.The sea under the water villa is pretty safe and the depth is usually less than 2 meters.
Room:
The water villa has several symbolic Tiffany blue decorations to make the room look energetic and stylish.The bathtub owns uncovered sea views,and it's been a relaxing experience to bathe towards the wonderful sea.
Service:
Each employee shares a common company culture,which makes it easier to provide hospitable service.Each employee gives a welcoming greeting with a smiling face.I'd like to thank my butler Ali especially,who helped me find my lost bag,he's kindness and enthusiasm also make my journey more memorable.
Food:
Each restaurant holds a high standard on food,grilled beef,lamb,fish and wonderful burger and sandwich are all tasty.Employees of restaurant are also willing and prepared to provide a wonderful lunch/dinner.Besides, every restaurant has a Chinese menu to help Chinese tourists enjoy their meals.

Velaa was our favorite. You can't go wrong with their steak. A must to order unless you are vegetarian.

If you are a strong swimmer and stay at the villa further out near the west jetty, you can probably swim out to the house reef. It might take 20-30 mins. Our family are not strong swimmers and with a younger kid, we joined the 60-min house reef tour. It ended up only had our family so it's more like a private tour. I'm not a marine expert; the corals look healthy to me.

My flight arrives Male at 3.30pm do I have enough time to catch the seaplane transfer?
Answer from Fiona

Yes, I believe we took the same flight and arrived at Male by 3:30 p.m. Our flight actually landed before 3 p.m. so we had time to catch the seaplane transfer. When you confirm the seaplane transfer, they usually let you know. We waited at the lounge for less than an hour and took the last seaplane out to the resort. With the check in process and quick tour of the island, it was about 6:30 p.m. when we settled into our villa.
