Wannabe 5-Star boutique resort
15 mths, 5 Maldives trips, 6 5-star hotels, all happy EXCEPT for Hideaway. I was assured during booking that a seaplane-ride directly to hotel, no long domestic/speedboat trip, or no booking. 3 days before departure, no seaplane info, usually within a wk from booking. Repeatedly called to obtain until 2hrs before flying. In Male, waited in Hideaway/Lily Lounge, "plane is coming", 2hr delay not hotel's fault, but no lunch items offered, usually ample food/drinks from other hotels. Samsara: Salad with avocado, no sign of avocado. US$25 edamame badly cooked and not fresh, London Zuma or Nobu would not dare to price like that. Poor manager tried to redeem situation on our next meals when we complaint. Breakfast: nightmare from noise level, droves of all-inclusive Chinese groups. US$16 for a green coconut, locally grown wild, in Conrad Rangali US$7, Shangri-La US$6. Spa SUBPAR, good therapists but CHEAP and old constructions. Taj Exotica, Conrad and Shangri-la beautiful spas. Rm Service never return to pick-up trays. PRIVATE US$825 dirty dhoni charter was a joke, unsafe upper-deck banister. Snorkeling guide was the ONLY good thing. Sunset Pool Cafe, GREAT professional Indian chef saved a few dinners by making special meals, making up for many things offered but not available, and not taken off the menu. Hotel pen, usually a give-away asking US$20!! Poor Villa Host pushed to "sell". Return transfer was a disaster.

I booked a Deluxe Water Villa for 4 nights and it was one of the best experiences I've ever had. The transportation to the hotel is a bit long. 1st, a 50 mins flight, which we waited 3 hours for in a lounge with free wifi and refreshments. and then a 20 mins speedboat ride. Keep in mind there is usually only 2 flights a day, one in the morning (9-11am) and one in the evening (4-6pm). So, word of advice, book a flight to MLE that arrives no later than 8am so you can catch the morning flight. We arrived in MLE at 2pm but finished checking in to our room at 8pm, so basically the first day was wasted because we couldn't catch the morning flight. Once we're there it was a heavenly experience! The blue waters and the beautiful sky, a perfect getaway/hideaway (see what I did there?!). A lot of activities that can be done for couples and families. Good food. GREAT SERVICE (shout out to our butler Omaima! who made thing much easier for us). This is a trip I'll never forget!
