Ooh we do love a room tour! Check out how spacious these Beach Suites are at Amaya Kuda Rah!
This resort in South Ari atoll used to have some - we have to say - rather ugly seawalls but, after a $2.5m renovation project, these have been completely removed and replaced with far less intrusive defences. Measures like these are a must to preserve the beach at many islands these days, especially those that, like Amaya Kuda Rah, lie at the edge of an atoll, but they do create a beautifully calm lagoon and a home/feeding place for some sea critters.
7 nights in a Beach Suite like this in June, on All Inclusive Deluxe with direct British Airways flights from London and seaplane transfers, £7,660 for 2 adults

JA Manafaru review!
One of our lovely clients has just returned from this lesser-known island, here's what she had to say:
"We had a lovely time, we really liked the island.
The villa was lovely. The first week the sea was still a bit choppy so we could not swim in the sea outside our villa, which was a little disappointing but things changed and the sea was beautiful and clear and so sandy underfoot. The sand everywhere was beautiful no matter where you walked.
We loved all the inland sandy paths and often got lost, which we loved. The food was amazing and the drinks great - the best we have had. Tons better than Moofushi. The staff were incredible and our villa host was great.
Because of the sea conditions we did not go snorkelling, there weren’t many fish around apart from at the end of the jetties where we saw huge sharks, mantas, dolphins etc. Apparently people that did snorkel from the end of the jetty said it was good.
We did love it!"

Aw, we LOVE receiving emails like this! Client recently returned from Reethi Faru...

"Just an email to say a big thank you for helping arrange the holiday of a lifetime, we both had an amazing time.

Everything from start to finish went like clockwork, your agents at Male airport were fantastic and made it totally stress free.

The island itself really was Paradise, the people so friendly and we were so pleased with our accommodation….right on the beach and opposite the best snorkelling reef on the island.

We can not fault one thing about the island, it really is a stunning place and the food and drink were plentiful and of the highest quality…we wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Reethi Faru to anyone considering a visit to the Maldives.

So a massive thank you for everything you did for us, it’s made a memory that will last a lifetime."

Thank you so much for taking the trouble Chris & Cheryl! 🥰

One of our all-time favourite islands, Vakarufalhi, was taken over by new management a couple of years ago and rebranded as Nova Maldives, with a few tweaks like a swimming pool being added and some villas having private pools too. Their marketing has made the island look a little more 'lively' - but we're glad to report that one of our customers has just returned from there and absolutely loved it, saying it's as quiet and idyllic as ever! Its location in South Ari atoll makes for great snorkelling on the house reef, and our client especially liked the regular demonstrations of traditional Maldivian crafts. We think it's a real hidden gem.
