This is the First resort I have seen whose pictures dont do justice to the actual place. The place in itself is so beautiful that no picture can show the real beauty. We went there in Oct 2012 for our honeymoon and we were given King treatment. There was a guy to receive us at the Airport. He took care... More

Wonderful stay as the weather was perfec for most of our stay there in April. The hotel is not far from the airport so it is good after the long journey to get there. The food was good, although the variety limited. The island is small and the facilities restricted but then most of the islands in the maldives are... More

We stayed here 4 years ago, but I had to write a review of our experience here. Taj never ever disappoints! Located on a small island, this is as exclusive a resort as we have stayed in. Maldives remains as the best beach and resort destination we have visited thus-far. Warm turquoise colored waters, sandy beaches, stingrays floating by -... More

Was there 2 weeks ago and can't recommend the place highly enough. Words just can't describe how beautiful it was and how friendly and welcoming the staff are. Stayed in a deluxe water villa which was brilliant and housekeeping was superb the whole place and experience has left us wanting to return as soon as possible 10/10
