" It is an amazing resort, and I was lucky enough to spend my birthday there. From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly kind, welcoming, and attentive, which made our stay truly special. We were especially impressed by Maniuu, who looked after us throughout our stay and made sure everything was perfect. We absolutely loved the sound and healing session overlooking the beach with the wonderful June – it was such a peaceful and unique experience. All of the restaurant staff were very friendly and welcoming, and the food was consistently good with great variety. The marine life around the resort is incredible. We saw sharks, many beautiful fish, and even manta rays, which was an unforgettable experience. The surroundings are simply stunning. We stayed in an overwater bungalow, which was fantastic – amazing views, a spacious and comfortable room, and the nets overlooking the ocean were my favourite spot to lie back, relax, and enjoy the scenery. I also received a birthday cake, which was not only delicious but such a thoughtful and lovely gesture. I truly felt spoiled. During our stay, we also took part in art classes with an amazing artist. I was genuinely surprised by how unhurried and detailed the experience was – he was incredibly patient, explained everything step by step, and we came away with a beautiful keepsake to remember our time there. We also enjoyed a lovely sunset cruise, which was the perfect way to end our days. Overall, it was a beautiful, memor"

"Providing a picture perfect scene is an achievement in itself, but fostering an environment where staff are comfortable, welcoming, personable, and driven to provide the best possible experience is truly outstanding and remarkable. We very much enjoyed our time overall at Raaya and would not hesitate to recommend the resort to anyone. "

"Luxury Stay at Ifuru Island Resort, Maldives My husband and I enjoyed an exceptional and truly luxurious stay at Ifuru Island Resort. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by the staff and made to feel completely at ease. Being assigned a personal buddy throughout our stay was a thoughtful touch and ensured everything ran smoothly from start to finish. The level of service across the resort was outstanding. Every member of staff was professional, attentive, and genuinely friendly. Our housekeeper, Tharaka, made our stay especially comfortable, checking in with us twice daily to ensure we wanted for nothing. His attention to detail and care added greatly to the overall experience. A special mention also goes to Pradeep, Senior Bar Staff at Hubba Hubba, who was exceptionally welcoming and attentive, making our time there even more enjoyable. The dining experience was excellent, offering a wide variety of beautifully prepared dishes. We also dined at the signature restaurants, where the food was of a very high standard and presented impeccably, perfectly complementing the resort’s luxury atmosphere. Overall, Ifuru Island Resort delivered a refined, relaxing, and memorable experience. We would highly recommend it to anyone seeking a luxurious escape in the Maldives and look forward to returning in the future."
