Patina Maldives, Fari Islands

We enjoyed every day of our Trip in Patina.

The hotel is gorgeous. Villas are super modern and spacious with completely glass walls so you're surrounded by nature. The island is quite big, so you have personal bikes to move around. Everything there is so beautiful and made thoughtful. There are plenty of delicious restaurants: you can find any cuisine, whatever you want. They also have futuristic food tracks and in my opinion 'Go Go Burger' serves one of the best burgers in the world. Our essentialist Ruslan was endlessly caring, friendly, and dedicated, that kind of service is beyond any expectations. There is a kids club on the island; if you travel with kids, that's the best place for your child. It's like a preschool, where they have a lot of things to do: different master classes, drawing, toys, playground, dancing, role plays, football etc. The staff there love their job and have fun with kids.

Kids club/ staff and local staff throughout the resort are amazing. Food was great especially the Chinese restaurant.

Villa and pool are small compared to other resorts We were completely covered in bites from sand flies. Still itchy one week later. No spraying or fumigation to control like other resorts The water was cloudy and stinky at our villa and the beach club during the day Construction going on right next to our villa

I truly enjoyed everything about this island; it was perfect. Our butler, Mr. Arey, Coach Faisal, and all the other staff members were outstanding. The facilities were fantastic, and the activities were a lot of fun. The resort management and staff were exceptionally fair and helpful. For example, when we encountered adverse weather during our jetski ride, they quickly sent a speedboat to rescue us from the ocean and didn’t charge us for the jetski. From day one to checkout, their friendliness and professionalism were evident. Thank you!

Price of the activities, SPA, and restaurants are very high.

Exceptional customer service, beautiful design & aesthetics, delicious food! l've wanted to stay at Patina since seeing images of the resort a couple of years back. The reality far exceeded my expectations. The hotel is beautifully designed and the public art was a delightful surprise. Everything here is centered around comfort which I fully took advantage of. I happily went on autopilot after meeting our Essentialist, Cathy. Her friendly and fun demeanor, and attention to detail ensured the perfect experience. She also had *the best* recommendations! So if you're lucky enough to have her assigned to you, take her word on everything. The remainder of the staff was just as friendly and welcoming. Everyone went out of their way to make us comfortable. I enjoyed chatting to each and every one of them! (many thanks to them all). The food was also fantastic! The quality easily rivaled that of the biggest cities. I would only recommend increasing the salad options as it was quite hot during our stay. The spa was fantastic as well. The treatments were incredibly luxurious and in a very relaxing setting. I cannot recommend Patina enough! We were well cared for from arrival to departure and I'm already planning my next stay!

The waves were very strong, but what’s there to do about it..!

Modern , amazing staff , so many restaurants and activities

The ferry from airport to hotel is pretty annoying
