Resort is a dream place.
On our bucket list for way to long. Our expectations were more than reached.
Reality is way better than the pics all over the web.
Fully recommended. We will definitely go back. Greetings to all amazing staff.

This truly is the Paradise! The island is amazing with its natural flora and fauna and offers a lot of beautiful landscapes. The inhouse reef is very interesting and it has a lot of submarine life in there. We also went to these turtle and mantra rays snorkeling trips - well deserved time and cost for what we saw! I would like to thank to Kuramathi Resort for the great service and amazing experience we had there. Upon arrival, we were upgraded to Two Bedroom Beach House (we were supposed to be at Beach Villa) for free and had the entire house on our own! Also, special thanks to our housekeeper who took a great care of the house and made us feel very comfortable and happy there. The food at the buffet was very nice and diverse, but we would also recommend visiting some of the à la carte restaurants (like The Reef and The Island Barbeque) where the food really is on the next level. Sunset view from the Laguna bar and the infinite pool is a must.
The resort really offers luxury service and accommodation. Can't wait to get back there!
This was our best vacation so far. We were pleasantly surprised by the outstanding hospitality of the staff. Everything from the beginning to the end was perfectly executed. The food was excellent. The water villa was a dream, very nicely decorated, the bed was super comfortable and the view was simply perfection. The whole resort is very well maintained. We enjoyed the sunset cruise very much and also all of the dives. Not to mention super fun evening entertainment with the live band. We loved our stay so much we even prolonged it for one additional week. Would love to come back.
We recently returned from our second visit to Kuramathi in the last 5 months - we were not disappointed and are pleased to say that the impeccable standard & experience we had in November was repeated - top notch customer service, rooms, food, drinks and of course the all important kids dream of Bageecha Kids Club!! While we went as a family with 2 young kids, it is important to note we would return here in a heart beat without the kids!!
Snorkling: We did considerably more snorkling during this visit - we swam on the reef with dolphins, turtles, reef sharks and all sorts of other fish you can imagine. We had a room on the reef side so we could simply paddle out from the beach in front of our room. Bring a Go-Pro or some sort of underwater camera to document the experience!!
Food: We had opted for the full-board package and were therefore allocated the Farivalhu buffet restaurant. You will not be disappointed with the variety, quality and freshness of the food served at every meal. We stayed for nine (9) nights and were never disappointed nor did we feel that the food was repetitive. Top quality food which is on par or exceeds standard of 5 star buffet restaurant in Dubai. The a la carte restaurants are exceptional but we didn't get to try them on this occasion.
Room: Once again we were in a 2-bed beach house which is super spacious and could accommodate 6 adults. It is a two story structure with massive living space on each floor, massive bathroom and situated directly on the beach with your own private beach chairs in front. For families, there will be very few hotels that could offer such a unique living arrangement and is one of the reason we came back! The rooms are cleaned daily and the staff are extremely attentive to ensure the room is spotless upon your return.
Island experience: We explored the island some more this time - its about 1.2km in length which means you are able to do your morning jogs from one end to the other. The white sandbar at the end of the Island is mind blowing- and spectacular, beautiful spot to park yourself, watch the world go by and take some memorable photos. At the other end of the island they have one of 3 swimming pools (2 of which are infinity) - it is very close to the jetty where the beginner snorkling is done and the swimming pool amongst the palm trees in front of the white sand it just WOW! There are several restaurants/bars around it where you can order food or refreshments. In between these two points there are many bars, restaurants, coffee club, spa and swimming pools which offer a great ambiance.
Evening entertainment: The island has a cracking band which plays at the various bars/restaurants. We decided to briefly watch the band at Laguna bar on this visit and were very impressed. These guys have incredible voices, play any cover on request and really get the crowd going with their enthusiasm. Again, a very nice added touch for those that want to listen to some live music in paradise!
Bageecha Kids Club - For those with kids, this is a priceless gem of a feature of the resort. The staff at this club are just phenomenal and give you every peace of mind that the kids are happy & in good hands. The kids club has lunch and dinner available during the course of the day and will facilitate baby sitting for younger kids (from a couple of months) for a very reasonable hourly fee. The kids will be doing painting, crafting, dress-up costumes, beach walks, cooking/bbq experience, visit the ocean life educational center amongst the many other activities. The club also has a dedicated swimming pool with slides along with a splash park for the toddlers. Imagine this: family breakfast finished 10:30am, drop off kids at Bageecha at 11am, adult time of cocktails by pool followed by a peaceful lunch. This is followed by having to drag the kids out of the kids club at 2pm because they enjoy it so much and want to stay longer. This place is what makes the resort for families!!
Overall a very pleasant experience and one we would like to repeat. This resort is like nonother that we have stayed at and one we would recommend to anyone!!
Dear Jesse t,
Thank you for taking the time to share this amazing review here. We are so pleased you had a great stay with us on Kuramathi.
Thank you for the kind words, and recognition of our team members.
We look forward to welcoming you back to the island!
Warm regards,
Team Kuramathi
After much anticipation and anxiety due to Covid times, me and my best friend finally decided to go ahead with our long pending “girls trip” to Maldives.
The gorgeous setting of the resort, the amazing hospitality and yummylicious food - there’s everything to fall in love about the place!
Special mention to the hygiene standards & precautionary measures taken the resort - which were of utmost standards.
So glad we selected Kuramathi Maldives for our stay! ❤️
We are so happy we found this island and made this choice for our holidays in the Maldives! Everything from the beginning to the end of our vacation was perfect!
The island is big and abundant in nature! It is so beautiful, you can not believe your eyes! There are many options for snorkeling places and for just relaxing at the beach or pool, or enjoying your pina colada with a perfect view. Everywhere you go, the happy vibe and magical nature follows you.
The island is big but you feel like it is only yours... it is not crowded at all! You see people only during dinner time and still is not loud or uncomfortable.
People who are working in Kuramathi are very friendly and happy! We would like to say special thanks to Shujau, Naushad and Aafaag. The bar attendant Mahesh makes the best pina coladas! The waiter Mauroof made us feel special and made a nice surprise for us. Chanadana is an artist in the eggs station - he can make perfect eggs of your choice. Thank you guys! You made our stay very nice and comfortable!
We had a water villa with all inclusive package. I believe in this island any villa is nice, but all inclusive is a must!
The sunsets on the sandbank are very beautiful! The snorkeling around the island is fantastic! You can find such a beautiful and colorful water-world there: different sizes and colors of fish, turtles, black tip sharks and many more... It is just amazing!
The only suggestion I would make : to increase the frequency of buggy rides.
We had fantastic and happy time in Kuramathi Maldives and can’t wait to come back! Definitely will recommend to our friends!
