The experience was beyond perfect! Aside from the spectacular beauty of the island, the overwater villas, food, excursions and the entire experience that the hotel staff provided was exceptional. Everyone is genuinely nice, smiley and helpful and will happily cater to all your needs! I would like to give a special thanks to our villa attendant Dhiras, who took perfect care of us, pampered us with beautiful towel arts, bed decorations, and gestures. He provided us with excellent recommendations and produced a special bed decoration for my birthday which I celebrated on the resort. We already look forward to visiting this resort again for another special experience. Read Less

We stayed 5 nights in Villa 119 for our honeymoon and babymoon and really appreciated all the little details that made our experience truly unforgettable. The genuine warmth and hospitality of the island staff truly defined our experience. Saddam, our personal concierge, was an absolute gem. Not only did he seamlessly arrange restaurant bookings for us, but he also graciously chauffeured us to and from each location, imparting invaluable tips along the way to ensure we experienced the very best the island had to offer. As for Dhiras, his meticulous care and attention to detail transformed our room into a sanctuary. His artistry with towel arrangements — from elegant swans to intricate boats and heartfelt designs — was a testament to his dedication and passion. He consistently made our room feel like a home away from home and always took the time to check with us to make sure we had everything we needed. We also had some great conversations with Dhiras. Thank you Waldorf Astoria Maldives for such a memorable experience. We can’t wait to visit again with our kids in the future. Read Less
