“Excellent Stay”

I had a wonderful 3 night stay here during April 2016. This is an excellent resort and they got a beautiful reef. The reef is filled with natural life. The hotel is just 20 minutes on a boat from the airport and saves a lot of time. The Island itself is clean and tidy. The rooms were good and we... More

“Great holiday spot close to Male”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 weeks ago

Embudu Village is a great place for a holiday in the Maldives if you cannot afford more than three or four days as it is only 30 minutes on a speedboat from the airport. Idyllic place, blissfully free of crowds comparable in quality of sands to what you might find on small islands in the Seychelles. The resort is well... More

“Excellent Hospitality!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 weeks ago

This was the second visit to this resort after almost 12 years! The first impression was that things have only gotten better. They really have! The 'water bungalows' have been refurbished and upgraded. The main restaurant seems bigger and better. The food was simply marvelous and seemed better with each passing day. The staff and the service was first class!... More

We booked to stay for 2 weeks mid-July. We arrived with nothing as Ethiad hadn't managed to get our cases on the connecting flight in time. Upon check in at reception we weren't offered any additional help because of this, no toiletries, or suncream, mosquito repellent etc was offered, despite also having our young child with us. We were told... More

“A little bit of paradise”

The resort itself is beautiful and in keeping with the natural beauty around it. The sea is calm and the waters, clear. You can see a lot of stunning fish swimming around even in shallow waters. The luxury of the resort is easy to get used to. Expensive, but then, that's the price you pay for natural beauty at its... More

We visited the Maldives early July 2016 for the fourth time to the wonderful island of embudu. In our opinion the best island yet. The island has a wonderful house reef that seemed to stretch for miles. We are keen free divers and spent hours daily exploring a superb coral garden, oodles of fish, turtles, eagle and sting ray.
