Ithaafushi Vacations from AED2,789

The property was clean, the staff were friendly. They said they do not arrange airport transfers for Expedia guests. Luckily, for us another guest was in need of a transfer while we were at the airport and we were able to ride in the van with him. He was from Shanghai, but worked for Four Seasons and was extremely helpful. The rooms are small, no pool or other amenities. Nice place to spend your first night after a lengthy travel and prepare to stay in a resort. The staff help you arrange transportation when you're leaving out.

Incredible experience with a truly amazing staff. Rooms were a little warn down but the property and privacy/quiet nature of the resort itself helped absorb that one fault. Will absolutely be back!

The food at Baros is top notch. Breakfast was fantastic every day that I was there. I stayed in an overwater villa with great views. Snorkeling at the house reef gave way to views of wonderful underwater life. When I come back to Maldives, I will book this place without hesitation. As for the expedia option of pre-paying for dinner, don't. Just go a la cart and not feel obligated to eat at the same restaurant. It's priced such that you are getting the maximum priced items on the menu each night and only includes one of the three restaurants. The food is great at that restaurant though, so no complaints there. I would have preferred more flexibility in how I used those funds.

Overall nice stay with great snorkeling. We stayed at water villa and ate at the Lagoon restaurant. The food can use improvement in quality and consistency. Service staff was nice. We filled out the survey for food on our 2nd day and the staff really took it seriously and made sure we had good food options rest of our stay. Breakfast was consistently awesome. Lunch and dinner varied in our opinion. I wish our host treated the food allergy we reported seriously as we had kiwi sent to our room as well served on a 10 person excursion without an alternative. The staff was nice to have kind gestures when we shared the food allergy issue. Just not the 5-star personalized experience we expected. We booked on Expedia 7 days before we arrived. The hotel never confirmed our arrival flight. Hope the property better manages communication. Luckily there was another family on the same flight so we didn’t wait for the boat transfer. Just an unnecessary stressful beginning when you do not hear back from the property.

We recently had the pleasure of staying at Huvafen Fushi Resort, and it was nothing short of exceptional. A big thank you to Naadi who went above and beyond to make my birthday unforgettable. The personal touches and attention to detail truly made me feel special throughout our stay. We would also like to thank Noel and the team for their hospitality, their commitment to excellence was clearly demonstrated and visible which added to the overall wonderful experience. Great Island, Sensational Spa, Amazing Food, Exceptional Service! A big thank you to everyone.
