    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.

    We stayed at Adaaran Prestige Vadoo for eight days and could not wish for anything during our stay. We were assigned a butler, Mid Hun who helped us out with everything although we are not needy people he was there to assist with booking the restaurants and general day to day requirements such as extra cold drinks in the fridge. The plunge pool in the Sunset villa is great as you can just relax looking out over the sea and watch the numerous fish which swim around and even see the dolphins first thing in the morning. We had surf shoes which were very useful due to the steps into the sea from the villa being a bit slippery and also walking around in the water as there a re large rocks. The food at Adaaran is superb and a different menu each night along with a curry buffet. The food is a mixture of meat and vegetarian but there is also a lot of different seafood starters and main courses. There is a snack menu available in the main restaurant but you have to pay for items off of this and is it is identical to the Beach bar menu. Overall we had a fantastic relaxing time and the amount of time we stayed was about right.

    there is no house reef, so snorkelling was not as amazing as some islands with their own house reef. For us, this didnt detract from a perfect holiday! the quality and choice of food was exceptional!

    It is a well developed resort.

    It is a well developed resort. However, the Marina passed the little bridge is very empty. Many of the restaurants before the Marina bridge (ex. Ministry of Crab) get very busy but further away, visitors do not tend to go.

    Water villa was very nice, someone available to clean morning and evening which is helpful when you have kids, saii app was very good and reception responsive and buggy arrived within 10 minutes of requesting. Food was decent and could use facilities at hard rock hotel too although sai lagoon facilities were nicer. In addition, kids club had a variety of activities and had to book in advance. Hannan at reception was very helpful and transfer to the resort was quick and someone at airport to collect and transfer

    Staff was always helpful, friendly and very polite. Our butler was amazing. We were welcomed at the airport immediately. When we arrived at the hotel, our butler had organized everything for us already. All of our dinners and activities were pre-booked. When we needed to change something, we just whatsapped our butler and he took care of it. The room was cleaned twice a day, our coffee machine broke and they changed the machine within 1 hour. 10/10 for the service and hospitality!

    We were delighted with the hotel: the friendly staff, with whom you truly feel cared for during interactions, the diverse food and drinks - everything we tried was delicious! The rooms were clean and comfortable - we stayed in two different types of rooms: overwater villa and overwater villa with a pool - both were very pleasing. The hotel left a great impression on me, and we would happily return here more than once.

    Location is great, 25 mins from airport by speed boat which makes it less hassle from taking a sea plane. Facilities are good, and the Water Villa with pool is superb ( Although we didn't have the chance to swim at the lagoon due to the windy weather). Leena from the check in staff was very helpful. My wife had a small emergency and the nurse Anil in the clinic was very supportive. All in all, it is a great resort

    I checked so many hotels before going to Maldives and most of them were quiet far and overpriced. Transfer from airport cost more than the actual price you pay for one night stay. But Adaaran Club Rannalhi was the only hotel I came across with reasonable price for transferring from airport to the hotel. Only cost me 160 dollars by ferry both ways.

    Everything in Ozen Life was amazing epically the staff. try to look for Soodan who was cleaning our room and never make us asking for anything. Also, in the restaurant we met Saathiu who provide us with wonderful service everyday in the restaurant. I highly recommend to choose Ozen Life without even think of other resorts.

Very clean and stylish overall

    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.
