    I feel there is two sides to this section, so I want to give one point that I feel can be made better but also adress some concerned mentioned by other travellers / If anything I would suggest to talk more to guests about all that you do. I was so happy about all you took care of from our arrival to the depature, but it would have helped if everyone would have been more proactive about sharing what is going on. Example: Our waterplane was delayed and we were afraid we would miss our flight. The staff aranged that we would be escorted in the male airport to security in seconds, picked up right at the bus. Absolutly perfect! But pls let me know about this in advance so I dont need to worry. As for comments from other travellers: / Yes, the front beach has some plastic bags that act as stabilization for this sand island not to be washed away… Thats not plastic trash floating freely. No issue whatsoever as there are plenty of other beaches just meters away which dont need stabilization. / Windsurfing is obv. not available - please refer to e.g. Dive Club Maldives for whats available. However snorkeling, diving and even diving certificates are totally doable and depensing on the season whaleshark diving, turtle diving, manta diving… Prices seem fine to me - takkng into consideration that it is in the Maldives. / There are indeed quite some mosquitos but the property takes all measurements to shield guests. From compliemntary mosquito repellent to2x a day mosquito poisoning. I definetly felt I was bitten much less than in many other countries. / Meals are really up to what you expect. You are after all in the middle of the indian ocean. I personally was super happy and would argue for anywhere up to 10 days you will find more than enough different meals at pretty conveniemt priving (somewhat similar to what you will pay in northern europe in pricing)

    Overall I have to say I am still blown away by the property and mostly the staff working there. / The property has pretty much two sides, one that has less beach (during higher tides) but some reef in the water whivh is perfect for snorkeling- facing the front and starting in front of the beach villas/beach-pool villas and the second side which is an almost deserted looking beach on the other side of a small palm forest. / We probably had the most relaxing arrival ever at the Property - beeing seated with some coconut water while the staff was taking care of our check in and escorted us to the villa. / The staff did take care of us from having someone at the airport pivking us up, taking care of all of our checkin in the TMA waterplane, putting us into the bus for the TMA lounge. Same for the way back - frontdesk was taking care that there was someone at the airport who would escort us until security, enauring a super smooth experience. / The space is really big for the amount of villas on the island so we had days where we met maybe a handful of people only and most of time we met not a single person / Cleanlyness is amazing - minimum 2x a day our room was made, come rain or sun. No trash whatsoever at any point on the island and cristalclear water full of fish. / The island is moat closely located to luxury and ultra luxury resorts such as Diamond and Conrad, so you know what you get in terms of nature and water quality …

    Perhaps a few more sun beds could have been available.

    Everything was well planned and on time. The air conditioning was VERY controllable. The staff were efficient and friendly.

    They could cover the desserts at the restaurant from the flies, like they do with the salads. Maybe some other evening entertainment.

    The location and the resort are amazing. White beaches, lots of fish and clear water. Take shoes to get in the water as there are rocks, but it's where most of the fish are! The staff was incredibly polite and available all the time. They clean the room twice a day! Even the activities offered are nice, all depends on the weather of course, but we managed to go for a snorkeling trip, kayak and sunset cruise. The restaurant is very nice, good variety of dishes 😋 be aware of mosquitos! They do a fumigation every day but it's not enough. There is a recreation centre with table tennis, pool and other games as well as the bar (with amazing mocktails) and the pool area. You can go for a nice walk on the beach all the way to the end of the island. In the evening, lots of crabs come from the sand, but they are harmless. We really enjoyed our stay! Ps: Saabina at the restaurant was pur favourite, super polite and friendly!

    - When I asked about transfer from the Male international airport to the resort I got two choices of transfer - seaplane and airplane + speedboat. We chose seaplane because it must be a super experience but then they were answered to us there is only airplane + speedboat variant.

    - The alpha & omega of this resort is the staff. So friendly, smiling and willing staff I haven't experienced yet! From the cleaning service to the restaurant staff to the reception - all of them are very helpful and you have felt that they are only for you there! A huge praise for the personal manager who is in charge of this. - You often feel like the island is just for you. Great privacy. This is perfect for INTROVERTS. - Resort was very clean including beaches. - The village walk tour outside the resort was amazing and strongly recommend to you if you want to see how the local people live! Big thank to the Zee (If I remember correctly the name) from reception for a guide.

    the price vs value of the offered beverages. for full board i would expect free of charge or at least some number of drinks for free, or lower prices at least. i would appreciate more seafood and fish at the restaurant

    Beautiful environment. WiFi in the entire island!! friendly staff very private, relaxing resort

    - Breakfast selection was not for my full taste. missed fresh juices, more fruits and healthy options. Coffee was good - dinner and lunch ok. Quality was not standard. Some days were better than others - one staff member was ”too friendly”. He made me feel uncomfortable with his questions about my profession etc. I acted as I did not understand his question as I did not feel like talking about my personal or worklife. otherwise staff was very nice, caring and professional

    - Beach front room was very nice, modern and clean - It is a very beautiful and quiet island. I always found an empty part of the beach just for myself if wanted (It was not high season though) - No alcohol policy was Ok but very expensive moctails and non-alcoholic drinks. Water was included to lunch/dinner and they filled two bottles in my room twice a day. I appriciated that very much - Nice pool area and facilities

    Paradise Island. AKA Fiyavalhu Resort

    There is one unusual, but necessary procedure which takes place at around 5pm. It is called de-fogging. It lasts for no more than 10-15 minutes per evening and essentially rids the resort of mosquitoes. The fog clears very quickly. Rooms are also equipped with a plug in mosquito repellant. I took my own with me anyway and am glad to have done so, placing one either side of the enormous bed. I am an absolute mosquito attractor, yet in 21 days was only bitten a few times, no more than in any other country I have visited. So, for me anyway it was NOT really a negative.

    2 or 3 sentences can't sum up this delightful island. The wonderful and friendly staff. The facilities, food, service, including more excursions and watersports than I can mention. Go for the peace and tranquility and relaxing Spa treatments or for the amazing and exhilarating activities on offer. I stayed for 21 nights in September and it's an experience I would recommend to anybody; of any nationality, culture or religion. Fiyavalhu caters for everyone's individual needs. Rooms are cleaned at least twice a day + a turn down service in the evening. Whilst it is a non alcoholic island there is a Gin Palace called 'The Safari' moored approximately 20 meters off the jetty for those who enjoy a tipple. There is also a games room, well equipped gym and resort shop. The native barman at the bar situated by the infinity pool offers a very efficient poolside service and an amazing variety of fruit cocktails. Room service was available 24/7 and there is a well run concierge and reception service. I arrived at Male and took the domestic route (Internal flight + speedboat) and returned to Male via seaplane. I enjoyed both. To the many staff I now consider as friends and those who work silently behind the scenes to keep the resort beautiful, I thank you all. I simply can't name all of the pluses and am struggling to think of a single, justifiable negative!

    it gives the impression of windsurfing being available, but it is not. it also doesn’t say that it is an alcohol free island when you book. The food was positively mediocre at best.

    nothing good to say about the resort other than the staff who were positively delightful.
