So it was decided that we will head off to the Maldives with another family on a group holiday. And it was a great place to stay!! We arrived from the heat of Dubai into Male on the morning flight and was guided to our waiting speed boat just a 5 minute walk away from arrivals. The boat took about... more

My boyfriend and I decided to visit Maldives at the last minute. We searched Expedia for resorts but everything was in the $500+/night range or $200/night in a high rise, typical hotel room in Male (not special for the price). Luckily, we discovered Kandooma! We heard about it from other travelers at the airport. It is a resort with great... more

It is an absolutely amazing experience. The boat ride from the airport to the resort is about 40mins - and it is a pretty rough ride. It is all worth it when you arrive at Kandooma. The staff are great, we stayed on the little huts out by the sea - it is definitely the best room i've ever stayed... more

We chanced upon this resort while searching for an affordable honeymoon location. Compared to the other more-established resorts in the Maldives, Kandooma is considerably better value-for-money and takes great pride in the room amenties and guest service. Every villa is a standalone, so if you visit during an off-peak season, you may not even have neighbours. We booked ourselves a... more

My Husband and I stayed in beach villa 100 it was located infront of a swimming area which was great, the villa itself was everything it promises to be, the pillow's were the best i have ever slept on and i would love to know where to buy them from, sockets the same as UK so no need for adapters,... more

The island is very close to the Male Airport in about 40 mins you have already reached the island. The magic begins from the moment you step on the island of Kandooma.The staff is very friendly and polite(a little bit to polite):)))).Everyone is very carefull with everything that links to your stay. If you have the oportunity to arrive on... more

I went with my husband and would consider going back but would probably take the children next time. It's a fabulous island only a few niggles: the price of drinks! The buffet got boring after about day 4. The boat trip to catch fish is a rip off with the young driver even admitting that no-one ever catches anything. The... more

As pre and post tsunami visitors to Kandooma we are yet again speechless by what Kandooma has to offer. Credit must surely go the the management and staff that have worked effortlessly to resurrect Kandooma from that dreadful day 4 years ago. Gone are the old out dated accomandation facilties and bar and in with the modern and new comfy... more

Kandooma is a good quality hotel. There is no doubting that from the efficient pick-up and boat transfer from the airport, to the well equiped rooms. It's billed as 4*, and is. The accomodation is definitely up to scratch, and the communal areas and pool are well laid out and pleasant. However, it's not what you would expect from a... more
