Located on the largest island in Dhaalu Atoll, Kandima Maldives offers an abundance of water-sports, the largest beach club and tennis and Volleyball courts. It offers a marine biology centre, an art studio and cooking classes. My wife and I recently had the privilege of staying at Kandima aqua villa hotel, and it was an experience that completely exceeded our expectations in every possible way. From the moment we arrived, we were immersed in an environment of unparalleled luxury and tranquility. The villa was a stunning blend of modern elegance and natural charm. Perched above the crystal-clear waters, it offered us mesmerizing views that were a joy to wake up to each day. The private deck with its direct access to the water was a personal highlight, offering a secluded and serene spot for us to relax and enjoy the beauty of our surroundings. The service was beyond compare. Every staff member struck the perfect balance between professionalism and warmth, ensuring we felt pampered and well cared for throughout our stay. Their attention to every detail, from the exquisitely arranged room to the tailored recommendations for activities and dining, was impeccable. Dining at the hotel was a culinary journey like no other. Each meal was a celebration of fresh, local flavors, served with impeccable presentation. The variety and excellence of the food catered to all our tastes and preferences, making each dining experience a delight. The array of amenities and activities on offer was impressive. Whether we were snorkeling among the vibrant coral reefs or indulging in spa treatments, there was never a moment that wasn't filled with wonder. The hotel's dedication to providing a unique and unforgettable experience shone through in every aspect of our stay. In conclusion, this aqua villa hotel didn't just uphold the standards of a 5-star establishment; it completely redefined them for us. It was more than a mere stay; it was an unforgettable journey that my wife and I will treasure forever. We left with cherished memories and a yearning to return. For anyone in search of the ultimate in luxury, relaxation, and natural beauty, this hotel is undoubtedly the perfect choice.

Located in Dhaalu Atoll, Sun Siyam Iru Veli - Premium All Inclusive has a fitness centre, an indulgent over water spa and a bar. Featuring shuttle service, this property also provides guests with a restaurant. The 5 star premium all inclusive resort features Sun Aqua Signature meal plan with dine around option. My husband and I recently spent 8 wonderful days at Sun Siyam Iru Veli. We celebrated our 8th Wedding Anniversary there. This is not my first time in Maldives, so I'll first highlight some very important things that might be of interest to Tourists. Not sure if this is promotional, but we got the following with our 7 night, all-inclusive, Ocean Villa with Pool booking: - Free round-trip seaplane transfers for 2. Last time I was in Maldives (at a different resort), I paid $450 USD for my seaplane transfer. - Free airport lounge access for Sun Siyam resorts guests, after arrival in Male airport and while you wait for your seaplane transfer to your resort. This lounge access includes food, massages, showers, etc. Not many Maldives resorts have their own airport lounge to wait at. So this is important especially when you could be waiting 2 to 3 hrs before getting your seaplane transfer. - We also each got 100USD spa credits which we made use of and got massages. The massages were amazing and you're looking down into the reef as you're getting massaged. Highly recommend. - We got a jet ski credit. We made use of this and my husband enjoyed the jet ski. We added the drone recording option while jet ski-ing. It costs less than $25USD and it is worth it. Not included is the Jet Car. We also did this and added the drone option. Only the Sun Siyam resorts have the Jet Cars available. They are super cute, picturesque and worth it. - We also got 3 complimentary excursions with our booking. A sunset dolphin cruise, a snorkeling excursion and an excursion to a local island. Many Maldives resorts do not include excursions, so this was a plus. The dolphin cruise was our highlight, we saw dozens of dolphins and some were super close up. - We got 1 daily free Shisha. Another thing that many Maldives resorts do not include. Now for the resort itself. We stayed at Villa # 601. I think it's the best Ocean Villa in terms of location.

Free WiFi is available in the rooms. The experience was perfect right from the start. We were received by Resort staff at the Airpot. Professionally handled and escorted to the Sea Plane check-in counter. Received by our own Resort Host Mohamed who was in touch with us throughout our stay and helped with everything that was needed, excellent guy. The head chef Nitin made every effort to accommodate our requests and the food was fantastic, we specially loved the Positive Energy Cafe by the pool for snacks and Well Done for dinner is highly recommended. We ended up doing all our lunch snacking by the pool at Positive Energy Cafe and all our dinners, except 1 at Well Done. Spice restaurant location is very good, but we didn't like the taste so much. Babul was exceptional in taking care of our room and made sure we were never short on anything and the rooms were clean. Rooms were daily serviced by him 3 times and this guy is amazing. The whole staff, at the restaurants are great and very welcoming, especially the Chef at Well Done made sure the kids eat well and the food for kids there was always free with free deserts and icrecreams to follow-up. All-in-all, it has been one of the best trips of our lives and all thanks to the amazing team.

Room looks amazing - it was big, clean and had full equipment to use. We had there a delicious breakfasts and dinners on the terrace with a beautiful view. The beach is around 6-7 min way by foot so really close. It is a private beach so I could wear bikini without any problem. We had a beach tent so we could relax without be afraid of burn our skin and kayak for our disposal as well. Water was just perfect, so warm, clean with a lot of beautiful fish and amazing corals. If you are looking for place to relax and clear your mind this is just a place: there is only 1 guesthouse on the island so there is no possibility to meet crowd of tourist there. But we have to mentioned about a great people who works in this hotel. First we talked on booking.com and met on Male Shameem - angel person - he helped us so much! He gave us all information and take care of us when we have a problem with a speed boat. On the island we met Asim and Raaif. They are also super nice and caring and they make our stay just wonderful. You can also expect a very nice surprises from them :D So guys - once again big big thank you! And I hope we will meet again soon! <3
