Noku Maldives, Vignette Collection

My stay at Noku was truly magical!! Everything and more than I'd ever hoped or dreamed! The location is so private and peaceful and thus the snorkeling too was incredible (2nd best I've seen in the world, to the Great Barrier Reef), feeling like I had the whole sparkling reef all to myself!! The food was delicious!! The staff were so friendly, helpful and wonderful! The plane ride in was fantastic! And my over water bungalow facing the sunset was a dream!! Thanks so much!!!

Just the hidden Maldives taxes that end up being over 20% on everything! 😛 So budget for that!

Nice island to get away and to get fully relaxed. Villa beach was very stylish, big and comfortable. Staff very good and attentive, fast and smooth communication with reception team before and during all our stay. Check out day was well organized after the Hotel Manager intervention : due to the bad weather conditions our seaplane couldn’t arrive at time and we could wait and get a rest in another villa for couple of hours, and finally the speedboat has been arranged to reach another island to take another flight from there to Male. Thanks guys!

Central nice and large beach side is also used for the take off/landing of the very noisy seaplanes, which operate sometimes since 6.30AM; and also 2-3 vessels are always parked right opposite, 20 m away which really spoils the view. Why not to park them on the water sport, staff side, or pier. As the island is quite far away from Male, you should arrive to MLE international before 15.45 if you want to reach Noku the same day. Not a hotel’s mistake, but just be advised)

beach sunset pool villa is amazing, stuff is really great, the villas are located in the way you feel yourself comfortable and private. The food is always good, there are a lot of options to choose. Excellent place to stay.

wi-fi connection is very poor

The room was bigger than expected and also very clean, there were lots of activities to do as well. I and my partner met Andre and he’s the most amazing, he was friendly and warm, he’s very good at his job.

The breakfast set up could be better, there were flies flying around all over the food and couldn’t even eat much through out our trip cause we just couldn’t after seeing so many flies on the food, the hotel could do better by covering the food up with a transparent cover

Very clean and staff was awesome

If you think should have been explained upfront before we arrive. For example, the all inclusive package does not include premium alcohol. It also does not include room service.

The staff was kind and the location is just amazing! The villa is spacious and the beach was just incredible, offering snorkeling just in front of our villa

In general the feeling is that the target of guests is one stay and good bye. Cost of food and services is ove and over priced. Also the mandatory new year dinner (500$) per person that does not include drinks was just too much for what you get. A buffet (that was full of food, that is true with very high variety) and a 3minute fireworks was ok. But definetly the food/sevice was not worth that money. You could easilly eat amazing food and well served and presented including wine pairing for 300-400$ in a fine dining 3* michelin. Where here was a servisol buffet…

the villa was on the water and gave us a feel like we are alone in this wonderful place. the dimmed lights across the island made it at night a special place. Both restaurants food and set up were exceptional and the choices meet any travelers needs.

mosquitoes on the island - none at our Villa so we got caught off guard at the dive club which the bugs used to suck our blood. But we were given spary and a wrist or leg band to aid the bugs. As said not all over the island only after the storm near the jungle bits and mainly at the dive club.
