Travelers' Choice
Maalifushi by COMO is the first luxury resort in the Maldives to open in the pristine Thaa Atoll in the archipelago’s southwest. With overwater villas and garden suites, Maalifushi is therefore the ultimate away-from-it-all destination for families, couples, surfers and divers. There are some excellent breaks nearby as well as a string of uninhabited private islands, where whale shark sightings are common.

The service at this hotel is second to none. You feel incredibly looked after as soon as you arrive. We were travelling with a toddler and the staff were so friendly and accommodating. The food here is some of the best we have had when on holiday. There is a great range and the quality is fabulous. The island offers a bit of everything you want from the Maldives - beautiful views, calm seas on one side and soft waves on the other, an incredible house reef, spacious and private rooms and a feeling of serenity. The island is relatively small, with everything in walking/cycling distance. We wanted an island to match the feel of our honeymoon but which could accommodate children and this was perfect. This is a wonderful place.

I wanted to write this review, not to bash the resort but to inform people of our experience and hopefully give people perspective. For context, My wife and I are from New York and we were in the Maldives for two weeks on honeymoon . We’re also frequent travelers. In our opinion, this is most certainly not a 5 star resort and I think the 5 star thing gets thrown around way too lightly. You cannot compare this place to a 4 seasons, ritz, st regis etc. the service was mediocre at best, most of their staff do not speak English, even the waiters and waitress. Not a huge deal, but when you want to ask questions about a meal or get something different, it’s quite difficult. The resort itself is a bit tired and boring. Nothing to ride home about. Very quiet. The food was ok, lunch better than the dinner. The sushi restaurant was terrible, we left and ordered room service. This was the 2nd place in the Maldives we stayed the first - Gili lankanfushi was light years better. In short, I wouldn’t pay for this place again there are much better places and if you’re looking for 5 star this isn’t it

For our second time in the Maldives, we had decided to visit another island, as we love experiencing new adventures. Our first holiday in the Maldives was so enjoyable (Vakkaru) that we were frightened not to reach the same degree of pleasure. We shouldn’t have feared, Maalifushi Como resort gave us again that heightened experience that we were seeking for. The resort is beautiful, but then again, most of the resorts in the Maldives are. Lush vegetation planted on a white sandy island with transparent water is impossible to fault. Our accommodation (water villa) was so big that our jaws dropped when we came in, not only the inside was spacious but also the deck had 2 different seating possibilities. We were fortunate enough to stay for 10 days in half board. Sometimes staying for that length of time you can get bored with the repetitive menu. On the opposite, the menu was changed every 5 days and they also had different themed nights were you could eat dishes outside the à la carte menu. The 2 restaurants serve star chefs quality international and national dishes that really impressed us. On one occasion, we were served a maldivian dish that was not on the menu as our waiter noticed our keen interest in their native cuisine. The head chef was more than happy to satisfy any of our wishes. When I mentioned that I loved their mango passion fruit purée and thought that it would be a wonderful filling for their pastry, they had prepared some for us the day after! We also found this keen desire to please on other occasions. When we generally mentioned (at a cocktail organised to celebrate San Valentine day) that we thought some beach beds could be placed under the trees, we found one bed the day after under a tree, just for us! How can you not Love that! With a fun private butler and a fantastic spa, our holidays couldn’t have been better!

This is our second year at COMO Maalifushi which says a lot. And the second stay was as good as the first one. Our butler Joy makes the experience the best one each time, COMO Maalifushi wouldn't be the COMO experience without Joy! Thank you JOY :))) The food was excellent, and we especially love all the healthy choices and fresh juices. The atmosphere is really calm and harmonious which is perfect to reset your batteries and reconnect. The water suite is really nice and it gives you a homey feeling immediately. The Como Shambhala spa is a must also. The massages and the overall ambiance are so relaxing. We like to scuba dive daily, and although the visibility was not great everyday due to the weather, Gracia did really her best to make the most out of each dive, which was really appreciated, thank you Gracia :) Till next time COMO Maalifushi, we'll be back!

As we console ourselves that today is our last day at COMO Maalifushi, we’re overjoyed that the last eight days have been truly amazing from start to finish. Before arriving, communication with the staff was pleasant and responsive. They addressed our questions and assisted us with a few special requests. This fostered a strong sense of confidence and set the tone for what was to be an outstanding experience. Upon arrival (by seaplane), we were greeted warmly by the management team and our butler, Joy. After introductions and some pleasantries, we were whisked to our overwater villa, where we wrapped up check-in and reviewed the activities schedule with Joy. Over the course of our stay, Joy was a godsend. When I tweaked my ankle, he was there to drive us to dinner and offer the services of the on-call doctor. He helped arrange a sea turtle snorkeling excursion, coordinated a candlelit dinner on the beach, and set us up with a high tech telescope in our villa, when he heard of our love of stargazing. Joy was instrumental in ensuring we got the most out of our stay. The accommodations were stellar. All fit and finishes exuded quality, without being gaudy. The COMO ethos of casual luxury suited us perfectly. Our villa was very private and quiet, and the only sounds we heard were the ocean, the pool, and an occasional seaplane. The food was exemplary. Breakfast by the pool each morning was something to look forward to, with a nice assortment of buffet and à la carte offerings. Everything was fresh and perfectly made. Dinner was equally, if not more, impressive. In particular, the on-site Japanese restaurant, Tai, was a standout. All-in-all, this was hands-down the best vacation we have ever taken. We’re already planning to return later this year or early next. Thank you, COMO Maalifushi! - Mark VanKirk

Dear Como Team - thx for the execellent stay at your Resort ! Especially we have to name Mr. Purna - our buttler !!!! He was brilliant! Friendly , always there , very fast in fulfillingl our wishes ! 2 points to have perhaps eyes on : The waiting period from Male to Como was too long- 3 1/2 hours waiting on the airport for the seaplane! And one minor point were the stairs to the sea from our Water Suite - why is the last part to the sea so onerous? But the whole Team, the food including the breakfast, the water suite, the housecleaning , the special event on tai Beach - simply WONDERFUL , EXCELLLENT and UNIQUE 👍❤️ We‘ll hope to see you/us again !!!! Warm regards S and H

I was super lucky to be taken here by my husband for my significant birthday. The Maldives have always been on our bucket list so it was safe to say I was excited! I’d read many reviews and kept a close eye on Como’s social media so my expectations were high! The bar had been set! But what I wasn’t expecting was for my expectations to not just be met but to be far exceeded! From the moment we were greeted off the seaplane by our hosts we knew we had come somewhere special. Not only is the island breathtakingly beautiful, it’s intimate and serene and so very friendly. Nothing is too much trouble and the care and attention taken by the staff is quite simply 110%. The accommodation is beautifully furnished, our own little oasis amongst the tropical trees overlooking the sea and reef. I favoured using the outdoor shower listening to the birds and looking up at the blue skies whilst inhaling the most amazing smelling aromatherapy products! It’s hard not to relax here. You can do as little or as much as you like. We loved taking each day as it came starting with a leisurely breakfast- so delicious and enjoyed chatting to the staff who all clearly love working here and delivering such a high level of service. The food is second to none and we enjoyed both restaurants and the themed menu evenings. I’m not sure we’ve ever been anywhere quite like it and feel hard pushed to think we find anywhere better in the Maldives( in fact we were told so on many occasion by other guests who had previously been to other islands)! We loved everything about our stay that’s for sure and I really hope that one day we will get to return. What Como Maalifushi gave us was so much more than just a week on a beautiful island. We literally found paradise and a chance to step off the treadmill that is life and for that it will always have a special place in my heart. Special mention to Zayan our helpful butler, the super lovely Maria and her team in food and beverage- always smiling, Riki the marine biologist for her expertise and the wonderful therapist who gave me the best Indian head and reflexology treatment( apologies I forget your name) Thank you all for making our stay the best!

A second, unbelievable visit - couldn’t recommend this place more. Idyllic setting, staff are delightful and couldn’t be more helpful, accommodation is luxurious and facilities are all that you need (good gym, well-equipped water sports centre and spa) and the food is excellent - especially the healthy options, which are many, varied and don’t skimp on flavour. Diving was spectacular and we were incredibly well looked after on all dives given our amateur status!? Didn’t swim with whale sharks this visit as did it the time before - but not to be missed. Just snorkelling on the house reef is a blast - turtles, sharks (friendly ones!), reef fish - it’s all there 15 metres off the jetty. Well-equipped water sports centre too. The best place to combine relaxation with whatever level of exertion and activities you want to fill your time with. Worth noting the resort is a 1 hour sea plane flight from Male but this is s treat in itself + gets you away from the crowds I’m told the resorts around Male can suffer from. Highly recommended.

We stayed for 5 nights with our 9 month old baby and we had the most relaxing time. Incredibly beautiful property with even better food and a lovely group of people to look after your every need. Special thanks to our butler Joy who made everything better for us. Housekeeping was immaculate with Mourouf and his team. Massages were the best we’ve ever had with Tai. All the staff were friendly with the baby and he loved every se fond of attention from them especially Rini. I would surely recommend this place to families and couples alike. Would definitely come back here.
