“Noisy kids resort with poor reef”

Reviewed 16 May 2013 NEW via mobile

Not one to moan but.. You come to the Maldives for certain things, I didn't expect this place to have many toddlers and baby's screaming and playing up like they do, I can't believe parents bring kids to the Maldives. You can't have a meal with out them playing up, the beach is small and again full if tantrum toddlers.... More

“Holiday of a lifetime”

Reviewed 13 May 2013 NEW

What can I say, it is as all the others have said before and more. The flight (Thomsons) was much better than expected, the transfer was great fun-a speed boat, the hotel/island was immaculate-rooms cleaned twice a day and ladies continually sweeping fallen leaves. More sunbeds than people, restaurants top-notch although breakfasts were repetative there were so many choices you... More
