Visited at the end of August/ beginning September. In one of the older water villas. Not the best water villa we have had over the many visits to other Maldives islands but still nice. Little privacy on the outside as others walking past can see you. Also there are large windows which overlook each other so you can see into each other’s bedrooms.
Great food as usual in these resorts and the staff are superb. A couple of bars but our favourite was the sundowner bar. As it’s name suggests, it faces out to sea and the sunset. Get there early as its very popular
One thing we discovered that was a real and pleasant surprise, the walk from our villa to the restaurant went through an area which was full of budgerigars. A wonderful sight.
The downsides were noisy Chinese holiday makers. Not all I might add but they do tend to take over at times. One time they were using the life rings on the walkway to the sundowner bar (just past our villa) as swimming aids. Comical really but no concern for others.
Some of the wooden supports on the water villas are very badly rotted (see photos).
Overall I’d say it was a great place and would visit again as the coral and the fish are amazing
