Kuredhivaru Resort & Spa Maldives

We had a wonderful time at Kuredhivaru and were especially impressed by our beautifully designed overwater villa (seeing a big shark while sitting on the toilet was a once-in-a lifetime experience ;), the friendliness and care of all employees and the amazing breakfast spread. We were very happy with our host Nelly who was very kind and always quick to support us with our questions and requests. She made sure we were always covered for food in the evenings and pro-actively provided useful suggestions and ideas. Besides Nelly, we would like to give a big thank you and appreciation to: -Omkar and Najima who served and entertained us very well at Latitude (Omkar) and Bodumas (Najima) restaurants -Elvin who always made sure with a big smile that I had enough salmon at breakfast at ONU -Shair who served us quickly and with great friendliness at breakfasts at ONU - and our ONU "juice guy" Shodabayek (hope I remembered his name correctly) who we made work very hard with our frequent requests for freshly pressed juices in the mornings -honorable mentions also to Asanka from the gym and Jinah the dive butler who made sure I saw a lot of sea turtles -and of course, to all the other kind souls at Kuredhivaru whose names we could not remember but who always gave us smiley greetings and good vibes -my wife loved the painting session with the super-nice teacher & artist who is selling his beautiful paintings near the billiards table at the ONU bar He and his painting lessons should get more advertising! -the cleaning staff deserves a special mention here for keeping our beautiful villa impeccably clean all the time! And when you believe you have experienced the best friendly service already and are sad to leave...surprise, you meet another Kuredhivaru super-star: Mimmi!! She welcomed us at the airport on our return, made sure we got through the luggage check and to our check-in counter in record time, all while insisting to carry our heavy bags for us. What a sweet and charming young lady! Thank you very much, Mimmi. And one last word about the island: we were lucky to be spoiled by sunny weather, the waters were crystal clear, the beach clean with white sand and we saw turtles, rays, sharks, lots of colorful fishes...definitely enough to keep us excited (but we are not hard-core snorkelers or even divers). If there is anything to maybe improve, I would say there could be a bit more variety in evening entertainment choices...but then again, it is a rather small island and perfect for families and couples to spend a peaceful romantic time.

Our resort is honestly something special. From the moment you walk in, you're surrounded by beauty, calm, and that feeling of “I could stay here forever.” Everything’s set up to help you relax — the views, the food, the service, the vibe… it all just clicks. But behind the scenes, there’s one person who really keeps it running smooth — Ms. Li. She doesn’t try to steal the spotlight, but you can tell her care and effort are everywhere. From how the team treats guests to the little touches that make a big difference, her leadership is the reason everything feels just right. So yeah — the resort is amazing on its own, but Ms. Li makes sure it stays that way. Quiet power. Big respect.

We had a absolutely fabulous 14 days. Food and overwater villa was fantastic. Thankyou so much to Moosa and Omkar at the Onu and Latitude restaurants for making our stay very special. Unfortunately on our last day we had a very bad experience which left my husband and I feeling very embarrassed and extremely let down by our host Elza who never showed up to wish us a farewell as every other guests that were leaving that day had there's We were left at reception every other guest's had their host take them on a buggy to the plane but us we were left stranded.
