Minaavaru Holidays from NZ$1,927

Staff were great especially Roy. Pool was clean. steps to beach and overall a very nice and quiet island.

Kurumba was everything I imagined and so much more. The staff were incredibly courteous, the room was spotless, and the open bathroom was hands down my favorite part of the bungalow we stayed in. Huge shout-out to the water sports team, and to all the wonderful people we met along the way. Truly an unforgettable experience.

Our stay at Taj Exotica Resort & Spa in the Deluxe Overwater Villa with Pool was absolutely fantastic and truly memorable. From the very beginning, the experience was seamless. The airport pickup was extremely smooth — the Taj team was already present before we arrived, handled our luggage, and escorted us to the speedboat that took us to the island without any hassle. Check-in was quick and effortless, and we were assigned a dedicated staff member who stayed in touch with us throughout our stay and took care of every requirement promptly. A special shoutout to the housekeeping team — their service was simply exceptional. Every time we stepped out of the villa and returned, the room felt like it was prepared fresh for day one. This happened multiple times a day, and honestly, I’m still amazed at how perfectly they managed it. The entire stay was truly relaxing. Not even for a single moment did we face any issues or feel the need to follow up on anything — everything was handled proactively and with genuine care. Thank you, Taj Exotica, for such a flawless and luxurious experience. Highly recommended, and we can’t wait to return!

Half board or all inclusive is the best option, as the cost of food and drink is on the high side.

Great value property. 15 minute boat transfer. Half board was good. Pastry chef was amazing and Shameen, our waiter, was excellent.
