Universal Resorts - accommodation in Vihamanafushi

When we arrived we were Taken to the lobby area and had to sit through a 30-45 min speech of a TON of information. They had us download their app where we had to make reservations 1-2 days prior to any of their restaurants if we wanted to eat there. They also ran through SO much information at 100MPH. On top of this we were hit with a $360 charge for the water taxi that brought my husband and I from the airport to the hotel. On top of that we were also hit with all the daily taxes for our stay at that same moment. The hotel is nice overall, the rooms were air conditioned and the beach is nice as well. We got a room With our private jacuzzi but be aware these rooms are a distance from Everything so you have to walk Far every morning or anytime you leave your room to go eat, go to the beach or pool or anything. It was blistering hot so the distance daily walk was miserable. The water sports are very expensive maybe a little over priced from the usual. The food was good. The drinks were also good. They also offer excursions but they are expensive along with a 10% gratuity tax and a 17% city tax on top of the price. Overall, everything was fine the worse part for us was the eater taxi charge that we were unaware of.

Everything was great. Was a little disappointed with the view we had an over the water villa and had a view of the city. Everything else was great

Very easy to get to and from the airport from this hotel
