Bolifushi Island Holidays from NZ$7,087

So the room was perfect and the views were unmatched! The weakness of the facility is their need to nickel and dime their guests at every corner with non-included things all over the island despite me being all inclusive. The next weakness was the staff apart from one fantastic bartender Rasel which I loved, many of the hospitality staff weren’t very friendly on top of the buffet area the tables were not kept clean and was often hard to find a place to sit. As far as the dining establishments go I felt the food was subpar for a place of its quality with many things not appearing on the menu that were advertised. Finally I was unable to make a single snorkel trip with them always being cancelled due to possible storms even on the best days.

Overall it was a great experience. The service was exceptional. The facilities were great and we never hard a hard time finding a seat by the pool or the beach. The reason I have given 4 instead of 5 stars is that the resort allows smoking in too many places. You can be sitting there enjoying your time in your pool or beach lounger, when the person sitting a few chairs down lights up a cigarette and the smoke just wafts over for the whole time. There should be non-smoking areas so that non-smoking guests do not have to breathe that in while trying to enjoy the beach.

Great service and lovely rooms

Everything about this hotel is absolutely faultless - from the food to the service and the location to the amenities. Wonderful

We stayed at Furaveri in an Ocean Pool Villa (160 sqm over the water with private swimming pool). We are a family of 4 with 2 children (7 and 14), it is not our first trip to Maldives. This time, it was a 8 days stay in October 2025. The property is very nice, there are 5 restaurants including the main buffet. We had a premium all inclusive plan. The food was good in all the restaurants we tried. We found out that not all restaurants are part of the all inclusive package, the seafood restaurant is not part of the plan and the prices are on the upper scale, probably 100$ pp for a 3 dish order. The amenities include a spa, nice but not exceptional, and there too, the all inclusive package gives only limited benefit (30$ discount on a few treatments), average massages were 150$ for the cheapest ones... Access to the shower/steam bath/sauna is also for a fee (about 60$…). The gym is under-equipped and not well designed, but still has the minimum equipment, it gets too crowded with 3-4 guests working out at the same time… Although most of the food is good, the buffet is mostly similar every day. Children do not have free access to the regular menu in 4 out of 5 restaurants, they only get the kids menu, with chicken nuggets, pasta etc, very standard dishes, not suitable, and not copious enough for a teenager. If they want regular food in another restaurant than the main buffet, it is the “à la carte menu” with “regular” (expensive) prices, even if you have the all inclusive package
