Paradise, absolutely paradise!
The accommodation, staff, setting, food choices, spotless beach, transfer, bar area, entertainment, all were perfectly coordinated and executed! The staff, without exception, were friendly, helpful, efficient! Our room cleaner (141), was so funny, friendly and adept at making towel animals and arrangements on the bed, a special thanks to him for a great job done. The bar and restaurant staff were so efficient, with never a sad face in view. The gardeners, beach cleaners, reception staff and general staff were amazing to, they all look so happy in their work. Such a diverse array of nationalities, from Maldives, Sri Lanka, Bali, all getting on so well, unusual in this day and age! A big thanks to everyone for a wonderful, unforgettable time, we'll be back!

This place is absolutely worth the trip. We stayed on the Palace side which was fantastic. We took the seaplane both ways and that was definitely worth the investment.

The food was amazing and the beach was truly outstanding.

If anything could be taken to the next level it would be the front reception and the fitness team. The arrival experience was not quite top class, for example we were simply handed one room key instead of being asked how many we needed (I do 100 hotel nights a year a discussion about number of key is silly). The fitness team also felt somewhat unstructured, almost as if they were unsure of their roles.

Overall, a really great stay. I have visited the Maldives three times and the water and beach here were exceptionally good.

Amazing! From start to finish, I cannot fault this place. Landing at the airport, we were greeted by a Riu staff member, who told us where to go and what to do, which made it easy. Once we got to the hotel the staff couldn’t go enough for you, every detail was covered and remained that way right until the end of the holiday. The staff were so friendly and helpful, the rooms were spotless and the views breathtaking. I highly recommend anyone who is thinking of going to the Maldives to go here. I would definitely go again!

Cannot fault this hotel and the staff are second to none. Nothing is too much trouble, they will go above and beyond to make your stay perfect. Rooms cleaned daily to a high standard. We stayed in a ground floor beach villa. Waking up to our view everyday was magical. And here's why

Everything stood out, it was a dream! I came to spend the honeymoon with my wife and there’s no other place I would’ve chosen to spend it!

Transfer can be an issue. Limited availability and options. Extremely expensive transfer. On a really nice island

This is our second time visiting this fantastic hotel, the first being July of last year. We are already planning another trip for next year. In 34 years of married life we have never returned to the same resort twice wanting to see more of the world, but this part of paradise has broken that mould.
Last year we came with our 22 year old daughter, this time we came as a couple. Both times we had the best experience.
The location and set up of the resort has been very well thought out. The beach and sea are perfection, and the whole ambiance of the place is restful, relaxing and classy. The rooms are lovely and the cleanliness and daily upkeep is really good.
The staff throughout the resort are always wanting to do their best for you with a smile and genuine happiness. We were amazed and touched by how many of them recognised and remembered our names on our return this year.
The food is very varied and always amazing. The chefs and waiting staff are so keen to please, they repeatedly went the extra mile to give excellent service.
All in all this has to be one of the most beautiful places on earth.

Highly recommended it was an amazing experience

The room was even nicer than the pictures. There was a high concentration of white people, with very few Asian faces. However, there were Chinese-speaking staff, so communication was easy. The ocean view was beautiful, and the hotel was very clean. The buffet was delicious!
