Everything is outstanding. We liked the location near Male airport. Also, all the staff working there is amazing while special thanks to both (Sukaina & Pathum) who helped us even beyond to recommend restaurants and other tips to enhance our stay experience. Highly recommended for families

It was a fantastic resort in every way. The location itself, our villa, and the food and beverages were all worthwhile. The restaurant's staff were really kind and accommodating.

The overall resort experience was flawless! There is absolutely nothing to improve. My wife and I had the time of our lives. Thank you Zacarias for catering to our beck and call 24 hrs a day.
Enjoy relaxing beach holidays in over-water and beach bungalows at Adaaran Club Rannalhi - All Inclusive.

the Island is small you can circle it in 15 min, water was beautiful and also the fishes under whater, i newer saw so many,this is positive. Rooms need renewal , light switches for example are in strange positions, also the toilet and the paperholder was uncomfortable, you don't have bedside tables:), they clean the rooms 2 times a day though(less the 2 last days when they always came late so we were in the room and let it go) meals are ok lots of local cuisine but good.
5-star exclusivity awaits at Taj Exotica Resort & Spa, with luxurious villas and a large infinity pool with clear lagoon views. It features 2 restaurants, a bar and a fitness centre.

This is not 5 stars Hotel , the standards, facilities , service , amenities are below average..
If an island paradise of chic simplicity in a charming adults-only tropical setting is what you need, the white sand and azure waters of Anantara Veli Resort will provide the perfect setting.

We loved everything about this hotel. Paradise island with white sand and turquoise water. Excellent staff who were professional and dedicated to making our stay perfect. Excellent choice of restaurants. The room was a very good size and beautifully decorated. We loved there were many excursions and activities offered too at this resort. We dived and got involved in coral planting. The resort was perfect !!

Both family and couple orientated the place is just fantastic, despite some hiccups the overall is very good . Is very peaceful and the island(s) quite big so not easy to get bored. Sea life is vibrating and staff excellent. Many activities to do . Try stay in bungalows with pool. This will raise the quality a noch, that will definitively make your stay more pleasant.

So, let me tell you about our recent getaway to South Male Atoll - it was like stepping into a postcard. From the second we landed, it was all about those island vibes and clear blue waters.
Our digs were top-notch, I'm talking overwater villas and cozy beachfront bungalows with views that made us never want to leave. And don't even get me started on the snorkeling and diving - we swam with manta rays and checked out some seriously cool coral reefs.
But it wasn't just about the underwater action. On land, we had spa days, tried all the water sports, and chowed some seriously fresh seafood. And let's not forget about the locals—they were so welcoming and friendly that it felt like we'd known them for years.
Long story short, South Male Atoll is the ultimate chill spot. Whether you're into relaxation or adventure, there's something here for everyone. We left feeling totally refreshed and already planning our next trip back.

Very well organised - you are taken care of as soon as you arrive until the security at the airport. You don’t lift a finger, luggage is collected/delivered. Transfer by boat was very efficient - excellent service

The place is amazing, the watter and everything you seen in the photos and videos is exactly the same or even more beautiful.
Thake care about the UV solar power, on our stay was maximum on the scale and a 50 spf is highly recommended as with 30 spf you will get burned and believe me is happening so fast 🤦🏻♂️
The temperature is quite constant and even during the night is very hot.
Seaplane transfer can be quite expensive.
Definitely worth visiting at least once in a lifetime!

The water bungalow experience was fabulous; stepping down the bungalow steps straight into the sea and the reef area for snorkelling was amazing. There was so much underwater life to see.
Although the bungalows were a little tired and the bed was not the comfiest, we loved the experience. As they are semi detached, pray you don’t get a noisy couple next door!
The sunsets were stunning.

Our villa over the sea was amazing. A few steps down into crystal clear torquoise sea water. Snorkelling, even around the villas withy water depth of around 1m was exceptional. It is exactly as imagined and seen in videos of Maldives over the years. Paradise. Staff were fabulous and the entire resort fabulous. Restaurants and food could not be better either. Our "host" Ibrahim, was so helpful, courteous, knowledgeable and on call, 24/7 if needed. We will be back and we will ask for Ibrahim again.
The staff was very friendly and welcoming they made an amazing set up dinner so romantic they create an unforgettable experience that night and the housekeeping almost 24 hours they did a really good job and one more thing the spa was amazing.
Overall, the place I believe is different from other places because of the Hard Rock Hotel and the marina the give you more options for dinners or parties.
well , everything was on point . staff are amazing ( Reda , Ajay and Agra ) they were so nice and helpful and very very professional. food was amazing in everything single detail . I have been around in many resorts . but honestly they are different. they are exactly the meaning of how to be professional and friendly in the same time . Thank you guys . you made our vacation
The management of the hotel is perfect at making you think/feel that any request you have is doable. The restaurant is fully booked? No worries they will open 15 minutes earlier to seat you to eat quickly. You missed your covid test? No worries they will set you up with two contingency plans prior to your departure. Everyone has a fabulously warm sense of humor.
Water bungalow was very comfortable, beautiful ocean view. enjoy sunrise and sundown from the balcony.
staff super friendly and helpful. good food. nice complimentary breakfast in the room. ocean view from the bathroom.
hotel staff went out of their way making a super fun new year’s eve party. everything very neat and clean.
We usually prefer to stay at Taj hotels, due to their hospitality and the quality of the food. Our stay at Taj Exotica was quite enjoyable. Various other activities like scuba diving, parasailing etc can be enjoyed by the guests. We went on a wonderful sunset cruise where we got to witness the oceanic beauty of Maldives.
Effort of management to make everything possible to fix the situation when we complied about quality of room/food/facilities which led to refund of part of our stay, after two days in this hotel we were able to switch it to better one for same price, you can really book top tier hotel for the price they charge
The Island and Reef are just amazing to do snorkel. The ambiance is calm and slowlife. The hotel is not luxurious but everything you need, maintaining the essence of the island and nature, which is amazing. The food buffet has a lot of variety and every day the theme changes, amazing grill and pasta.
Our stay was simply superb! We travelled as a family of 6 and the hotel catered for all ages. Special shout out to Tammy, Nina, Sam & Raai (Roxity kids club), Rao (Pool bar) and tje amazing Carlton who made us feel so welcome everyday. The children are trying to persuade us to return already!
Everything !!!! This includes the welcoming team, especially Lauren (from Brasil) who is very professional. The Hard Rock Hotel was for me a perfect resort. I also really like the bridge leading to the HR Café and Marina. The rooms are comfortable.

Everything was wonderful. The staff is the best we have ever had on a trip. The resort is beautiful and the amenities are great too. This is a must do resort if you like all inclusive resorts.
Superb service and location, accessible via ferry 15mins. Resort is linked to Crossroad & Hard Rock Hotel. We can also use Hard Rock facilities and varieties of eateries at the Crossroads
The cleaning of the hotel rooms and public areas, changing the towels 2-3 times a day, the location of the hotel, its comfort, encountering the manta ray at night were my favorite parts.
Beautiful place, nature, sea. Very stylish and new hotel.Close to Male.Friendly staff.
The restaraunts Kinkao and Ministry of crab are the best.
