Ξενοδοχεία με spa σε Baa Atoll, Maldives

"Firstly, there was a clear communication via email and whatsapp before departure. Appreciate that! It helped us clear our doubts and prepare the amount of money required for our trip. Secondly, it was easy to spot the rep at the seaplane check-in area. Then, there was a private transfer to the seaplane terminal. Everything was amazing! We landed in the middle of the sea and got picked up by the hotel's boat. It was another amazing experience for us to have flown on a seaplane and disembarked the plane in the middle of the sea. There was a simple and welcoming drum procession upon arrival from the jetty to the bar, where we were served a welcome drink and given a cold towel. Our host did her part in explaining everything to us and that was the last we saw her. She was nowhere seen or neither did she texted us to ask about our wellbeing throughout our stay there for 5 days. We requested to swap our excursion and she managed to do so for us. Then, there was no personal nor virtual communication. We saw other hosts checking on their guests during meal time and on whatsapp so this was rather disappointing. We took matters into our own hand by dealing with the reception directly for our request. We had our meals at the buffet restaurant. Most of the meals came with different selections of food daily so we weren't bored of the food there. The waiting staff and kitchen staff did a good job there! Most of them were beaming with smiles but evidently, they were more friendly towards the non-asian patrons, though we didn't really care because on the last day, we only tipped those who really served us 'sincerely'. The bartenders were especially friendly. The room was kept clean and tidy throughout our stay, no complaints there! We saw the same housekeeping/luggage transfer guy checking on us twice daily with bright smile. Kudos to him! Overall, for what we paid, I can assure you that this is one of the best places I have ever been. No regrets!"

"Communication with booking department was bad, it was hard to get information about transfers, they didn't answer half of my messages. The boat to the island was delayed for more than 1 hour but I wasn't informed about it. Timing of the speedboat is not the best as it's public transport mainly used by locals, the boat departs from the island about 7.30 am. The staff at the reception are friendly and trying to help but sometimes there are some misunderstandings. Check in was fast and smooth but no information was given at all. Everything is in another building - Swarn. I didn't feel very safe walking around after sunset as this building is in the middle of nowhere.. The island is beautiful but full of construction. The bathroom is tiny and there is absolutely no place to put wet towels and swimsuits. The hotel building is next to a very noisy construction, there were some works in the building itself. I was given a room with the sea view which is nice but also opposite the elevator which produces loud sounds every time someone presses any button on any floor. When it was windy some food waste was in the water and on the beach ("

"I left the hotel today and am writing this from a fresh perspective. I'll say the main thing right away: the hotel is in a great location; fresh salty air wafts through the open window in the mornings and evenings. The hotel is right on the pier where all the boats are—it's beautiful. In the evening, sharks come swimming. You can feed them fish. Inside: the rooms are large, new, and fully equipped. They clean every day, and there's plenty of drinking water. Beach towels are plentiful. In the midday heat, you can linger in the shade of the trees on the shore near your room. Sun loungers, umbrellas, and tables—everything is there. Snorkeling and SUPs are the best place for it. This hotel is right there. The staff: kind, helpful, and empathetic. The house reef is great: dolphins, turtles, manta rays, schools of fish. I saw it all myself. Bikini Beach is a 5-minute walk along the shore. You can walk along the streets – 10 minutes. The breakfasts were nutritious. They helped organize all the boat excursions and fishing trips. They were very supportive and attentive. Adam is the manager. Always ready to talk and help. A special shout out to Yusuf 🤍 Without him, my understanding of the island and local life would have been limited. He did everything he could every day to ensure I enjoyed myself. It was an incredible experience. I'll definitely be back. And to this hotel. There are hotels on the island closer to Bikini Beach, but you won't hear the surf or see the sunrise there because of their location. And the hotels are located on the streets – it's stuffy. If you're choosing where to stay, choose this hotel. I recommend it!"

"On Maldives we come for the third time, the Royal Island Resort was the first time and remained very satisfied! The transfer to the island was a hydroplane and a boat (thank you for the hotel that didn't have to wait until lunch of the inner flight). Back by boat and plane by internal flight. The transfer backward was free, for which also a separate thank you. We arrived at the hotel at 8 a.m., we were settled immediately. We took the Villa sunset, and our house was super successful - far from the pier (in those closer to the pier - it is not very convenient to swim and there is no reef) and close to the beautiful reef. ”The food is very tasty and a great variety, every day for lunch and dinner there were necessarily seafood dishes, fruits, crazy desserts, ice cream, all in abundance. ”The staff is friendly, our waiter at the restaurant brought drinks by the moment we had already got the meals - come to the table, and the water is already poured into glasses and a teapot on the table. Host Mark also liked it very much, everything told, showed. The chief manager at Ali restaurant constantly approached asking how we were eating, whether everything likes. - Cleaning every day , replacing towels every day, including beaches. We have a lot of where we have visited and what have seen, and in our opinion it is a very worthy resort, with excellent price/quality ratio - recommended !!!"

"Our stay in isla retreat was on 100/10! I liked absolutely everything. I would like to express my gratitude to all the staff who surrounded us with care throughout the rest. The food was incredibly tasty, the purity is flawless, the whole service deserves not less than 5 stars. When we arrived, we took a small tour of the island, and then on the map showed where what is located, where you can swim, and where dangerous flows. There is a lot of entertainment in the hotel: library, billiard, waist, bicycles. We even looked at the moon in the telescope! We had breakfast and dinner and everything was very delicious. The menu is large enough to not get bored, and all so delicious that many positions we chose for several days in a row (catch of the day ❤️). There was always enough drinking water and towels in the rooms. And in general, all the filling of the room deserves a separate mention - from the teapot, to the yoga carpet. All staff are always ready to help or answer the question. The hotel is surrounded by green, the balconies can fly the bats, which we have been infinitely delighted. There is a small beach near the hotel where you can rest in the shadows or look at the star sky. Fehendhoo and Isla retreat broke my heart, I hope I can come again! 💔"

"We’ve travelled to many places around the world and stayed in countless hotels and resorts — some even more expensive than this — but Vakkaru is truly the BEST experience we’ve ever had. Baa Atoll is already one of the world’s most pristine ecological reserves, and the resort’s blue holes and sandbanks are simply addictive. We could visit them several times a day and still never get enough. At any moment, you’ll find different kinds of fish swimming freely around you. Beyond the beauty and the facilities, what truly makes Vakkaru unforgettable is the people. Our butler Myat, the sommelier, and our roomboy Mohamond all went above and beyond, offering the warmest, most thoughtful care throughout our stay. Their kindness made all the difference. It’s really hard for us to leave. We will definitely be back — and without a doubt, we’ll choose Vakkaru again."

"Very good holiday island, no children, quiet. The room service was very good, the housekeeper arranged in a well-organized manner, we came to clean as soon as we went out, and replenished enough water. The breakfast and dinner are very rich, the level is very high, satisfied. The only downside is that this time to catch up with the heavy wind and rain, there is no snorkeling and any sea activities. The pick-up service is very good, there is a lounge, at the water airport, some distance from the international airport, there is a car transfer, and the service staff will follow."

"We had an unforgettable experience in Avani Maldives. Our guide beautiful Nathu is really nice, she helped us solved many problems and satisfied any needs that we required to help us with a wonderful honeymoon holidays. Food: really nice and delicious, especially Charcoal, where my husband really liked it and we booked two dinners there. Staffs: all people are nice and friendly, they made lovely beds and warm words to help us with our sleep. Villa: Nice and new. Good snorkeling views. Definitely strong recommendation. For anyone who come to Maldives, this could be your first choice!"

"🌴 Review: Dreamland Maldives (Stayed July 7–11, 2025) 🌴 Just returned from an amazing 4-night stay at Dreamland Maldives, and overall we were really impressed — especially if you love marine life and peaceful surroundings. 🐠 Snorkeling & Excursions – Absolutely worth it! The house reef around the island is full of life. We saw nurse sharks, sea cucumbers, and even sea turtles while snorkeling close to shore. Our favorite excursions were: • A trip to Hanifaru Bay to watch the majestic manta rays. • A nurse shark tour around the Dreamland reef — exciting and well organized. 🍴 Food – Delicious and better than expected We chose the Full Board package (3 meals per day), and the buffet meals were consistently good. Each day offered a variety of beef, pork, chicken, and fish dishes, along with rotating international options. We were pleasantly surprised to find Thai dishes occasionally included — such as Tom Yum Chicken Soup and Thai Fish Cakes (Tod Mun Pla) — both authentic and flavorful. 💧 Note – Full Board doesn’t include water Still water is not included in Full Board. • A 1.5L bottle costs around $3.50 USD, which adds up over several days. • If you prefer not to worry about extra drink charges, we recommend going for the All-Inclusive package instead. 🌧️ Weather Tip – Be cautious in July On our departure day, a storm delayed our seaplane, and we missed our international flight. If traveling in July (monsoon season), plan extra buffer time or stay a night near the airport before your outbound flight. Dreamland offers a relaxing and nature-filled getaway with great snorkeling and tasty food. We’ll gladly return — but next time, with All-Inclusive and flexible travel plans during the rainy season!"

"The hotel is located in the center of the island, the rooms on the first floor, the view from the window is not very good. Everything else was nice."
