Lily Beach Resort and Spa - All Inclusive

Wonderful place to relax! Delicious and varied food. Interesting underwater world! Wonderful spa. Fins can be borrowed for free. There is a billiards, a court, a volleyball court.

The best all inclusive in the Maldives! In any case, compared with the four hotels in the Maldives that I happened to visit (j.ali manafaru, banyan.tri, van & onli and emerald). Amazingly tasty at any "food point", a large selection of good French cheeses, 80 types of wine, always fresh fish in stock, wonderful desserts, ice cream and freshly baked buns, croissants, cakes, etc., of course, fruits - a lot of different fruits, a lot is means as much as you want, and not as much as a gloomy Indian will give out at the distribution. In general, for those who suffer from a lack of weight - salvation is here! In addition to delicious food, there is also a beautiful reef, albeit 86% dead coral, but full of life. Sharks strive to play with you, with curiosity swimming right to your feet, almost on the shore. Under the water there is a huge variety of fish: sharks, moray eels, stingrays, all sorts of needles there, multi-colored, small and dumb big. In general, swimming with a mask is a pleasure! And for the more advanced, there is a diving center where you can take a short course and sail on a boat to dive into very picturesque depths. There is a gym with treadmills, barbells and other pieces of iron. Tennis court, mini football field, beach volleyball, all kinds of water sports entertainment. In general, non-vegetable vacationers will have something to do. For lovers of endless selfies or taking pictures of their wife from different angles and against different backgrounds, there are also many suitable scenes, including a swing dug right on the beach at the very edge of the water. The staff is friendly, courteous and unobtrusive. Everywhere is clean, although many common areas, like most rooms, need renovation. Of course, a part has already been renovated, but unfortunately a smaller part. I do not want to write about the negative aspects, maybe the general impressions more than overshadow them. However, so that the review does not look like an advertisement, I will still list some things that you may not like: a lot of old rooms, some of which are located near the kitchen, diesel generator and other utility buildings that make noise and smell; far from every villa you can swim, shallow or many reefs and other prickly bumps; a DJ plays every day the same music of the 90s-2000s, painfully boring Western hits; weak pressure in the taps, in the shower - but this is more of a nitpick, because everyone knows that fresh water on an island in the middle of the ocean is a great luxury; the Internet in 2020 could be faster than 1 Mbps (one megabit), but again, this is more likely a plus than a minus, because those who like to take selfies, saw endless videos and photos, immediately post them, take a little rest from this horse; the spa here, unfortunately, is unprofessional, there is not even a simple questionnaire, a questionnaire about the state of health, allergies, surgeries and other health-related issues that would be very useful for a massage therapist, for example, who can twist your artificial joint or damage your recently cured knee, no disposable briefs... so be prepared to have your favorite swimsuit covered in oil; some of the sunbeds on the beach are very old, the soft part of which looks very ugly; in some places the coast is washed out, sandbags and other devices are visible preventing further penetration of the ocean deep into the island. In general, despite some shortcomings, shortcomings that can be found even in the most expensive hotels, everything here is very cool!

An excellent five-star hotel with an all-inclusive system infrequently for the Maldives, not cheap. Nice own reef, spacious clean beaches, very nice and friendly staff. Of the features - during a hotel trip to view marine reptiles, we managed to see dolphins and dive with mantas and whale sharks, so lucky very rarely. Recommend also the very original Blood Mary at the beach bar

Good diving and snorkelling. Excellent cuisine.

We went to lily beach for our honeymoon, it was an amazing experience . We fell in love with the water villa 😍
The staff were so nice and very efficient .
They are plenty of activities to do and suitable for kids .
Don't get me started about the food there , it was all inclusive so you can never get hungry 😅 and the food was so delicious with so many varieties that we couldn't miss a meal 😋 😜
Loved the experience and would definitely do it again ❤
Highly recommended resort 👌

Amazing food wise, service wise and ofcourse, the accommodation. Has a range of activities and very friendly staff. It is a must visit for your next holiday!

This place is paradise in abundance. The staff are absolutely superb and so attentive. We are staying in a deluxe water villa and it's worth every penny for the wonderful turquoise sea view to wake up to every morning. The snorkelling is great and have seen so many new species that we have not come across on previous snorkelling adventures. The reef sharks and rays were a special treat to swim with straight from our personal villa deck.
I would recommend experiencing the floating breakfast an extra special treat and a great insta pic opportunity too.

We will definitely return but for now am off to enjoy the remaining 6 days we have! You're gonna love it here 💛

I posted on Trip Advisor in more detail, but to be brief: this place is astonishing.

Come for the location, stay for the food and the friendly and professional staff.

I can't say enough about Lily Beach: it was fantastic!

Edit: I need to specifically mention and thank Faisal for taking care of us during our honeymoon. He was the best! A++++!

Resort, staff, overall experience 5 stars! Just read the reviews below. My 5 cents as an avid lover of good food: try the Jack fish prepared by the fabulous chef in black hat at the BBQ stand. You will not regret it.
Say hi from me (the august guest who ate fish every day)! And don't forget to tip!!

Perfection!!!!

Weather was bad, sea was rough, did not get to snorkel! Yet came away with an amazing experience!
Thanks to all the amazing people who made our stay perfectly enjoyable and unforgettable!

Thank you Lily Beach Resort team! Hope to see you again!
