Reethi Rah Vacations from AED3,724

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.

This is wonderful hotel on little private island ( if I remember correctly there is only about 20 villas) so if you are Honeymooner ( like me :) ) or just a people who do not like to be disturbed on holiday by others, this is the perfect place. The place is absolutely fabulous and tranquil. I would like to thank general manager Julia for warm welcome and very personal attitude, our house butler Chelase, and all other staff of Naladhu Island. You all together made our Honeymoon unforgettable and incredible experience. All the time we felt very, very welcomed. The restaurant Living Room is superb- the best stakes and spaghetti bolognese I have tried in my life.

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.

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!
