Vilamendhoo Island Resort & Spa

We had an excellent stay. It is a much bigger island than we have previously visited but was every bit as good. Service throughout is very good. Lots of variety good and for buffet style presently excellently. There’s one live cooling station for each meal. Rooms are good, bed is hard but we asked for a mattress topper and got one immediately and this helped a bit. House reef for snorkelling is fab and diving was well organised. Disappointed we didn’t see quite as much ‘big stuff’ as before but apparently we were between seasons making sightings more random. We didn’t do the whale shark or manta snorkelling trips (lucky to have seen elsewhere before) and didn’t fancy the extra time on boats but were told by others that went that they were brilliant. I’d recommend the resort to others.

Absolute paradise! Quality of buffet food could be slightly improved

Is a paradise. We love everything about that island.

We are totally in love with this place and all its staff. We never wanted to leave—jokingly (kind of) asked if we could get jobs there so we wouldn't have to go. We wanted an over-water villa, but they were booked. Initially sad, but we got beach villa (#130) and loved it! Perfect snorkeling right out front. Thousands of fish every color, shape, size, patterns. Baby black-tip sharks, turtles. Every day different. Went on whale shark tour—they said 50 percent chance of seeing one. We got to swim with 3! It was surreal, beautiful, so special. We’ll never forget this place. Great buffets, water is perfect. Want to come back with kids and grandkids!

Amazing service, Wonderful food, Fabulous house reef - what more can you ask for in a Maldives holiday . If you are a snorkelling enthusiast you will love Vilamendhoo. The house reef is like swimming in an aquarium! Unfortunately there is widespread coral bleaching as there is elsewhere in the Maldives since the El Nino in 2016 but marine life is flourishing . Great holiday

Staff very friendly and nice. Everything was perfect

this property was a dream come true ! With so many options to choose from I know I had made the right choice ! Very beautiful and beautiful people . Just completed my number one bucket list after 26 years in the making ! Planing on returning.

The only downside was the food was mediocre. The fool at the buffet was sometimes cold. Oh and the bathroom is outdoors so if you go at night you could get bitten badly by mosquitoes as I did. The snorkeling was awesome!

Christine, the guest relations officer who was working in the island was very charming and accommodated to all our needs. We had 3 days in the island, it was such a relaxing break for me. The buffet was great with different themes every night. All staff working in the island were awesome.

Staff were very cordial to us. Excellent house reef for snorkeling and they take very good care of it. Every day spent there was an amazing experience for us. Thank you Vilamendhoo.
