Bandos Maldives

What i am unhappy about is being forced to depart the island to be dropped at the airport well before checkin is allowed. At the airport they wont allow you to enter until 3 hrs before your flight. Why force guests to depart 6 hrs prior to your flight?

Beautiful and peaceful place to be Superb customer service The staff are so friendly

The staff here is the real draw. Everyone is so lovely and willing to help in any way possible.

Hospitality

This was our second trip to Bandos, both times we paid for the all inclusive package, this time there was definitely less drinks and cocktails included in the package. So really not All Inclusive!!!

The property and location are wonderful. The food is repetitive and I think my biggest disappointment is the chick staff in reception. Basically the left-hand didn’t know what the right hand was doing or they did not speak English although basically just too lazy to do what was being asked of them?

It was amazing experience one of my best trip ever I like the staff they are so helpful and friendly

The only good part of the stay was the nice room, service was sub par quality. Breakfast buffet seemed low quality with not many options available, staff are not friendly, suppose to get a free wine but it wasn't there till we call and ask and eventhen it took them more than 3 hours to bring. The overall vibe is they just to take as much money as they can from you. Everything else needs to be paid add on.

Poor Quality food, which the staff acknowledged. Lack of attention by staff Limited and restrictive times for using water sports equipment. Hot water shared across too many rooms meant there were many times when showers were cold. AC in room was not sized correctly for space or conditions. Location and reefs were amazing. The resort lacked something to live upto its marketing. No somewhere I would return too. From other visitors to the Maldives I am told the resorts can be hit and miss, this was a miss.

Everything was pretty good other than the housekeeping. My villa was tidyed each day but not cleaned. The bathrooms were not mopped and washed down with soap and cleaners each day. The toilets weren't cleaned out either. I would deliberately note dirty areas and they'd still be dirty after Housekeeping 'cleaned.' Because of that, I will not be returning.
