We stayed at the resort for two weeks at the beginning of November, having imagined that we were in for a trip to paradise, but it was not to be. Firstly many thanks to the previous reviewer, Londoncouple 2010, as they have saved me a lot of typing and I agree 100% with everything they wrote. It is sadly all... more

Not wanting to drag this out. But im sure most of the people who have been to Shangri-la would agree Rooms Really nice rooms, very spacious, and attractive. Water Villas are lovely for jumping in the sea. Beach Villa's you get your own private pool. We never wanted to leave the room. Overall 5/5 ---------- Buggy Service Our buggys was... more

The pictures on their website don't even fully capture all of the charm and beauty of the Villingilli resort in the Maldives. We have stayed at the most luxurious resorts that Hyatt has to offer all around the world (Hawaii, Spain, Thailand, Austrailia, Carribean, US) and without a doubt this is the best resort we have ever stayed at and... more

After wanting to visit the Maldives for 8 years we finally made it there in the middle of November, and I have to say we weren't disappointed. We travelled on BA's new direct service which saved all the hassle of changing flights like you have to with Qatar and Emirates. On arrival at Male we were met by a hotel... more

This place is amazing. This is our third time in the Maldives, and definitely the best resort for us. The island is a bit bigger than most Maldivian resorts, which makes for more of a varied holiday. We were lucky with the weather, and had nine sunny warm days. We stayed in one of the water-villas in Serenity Bay, and... more

We stayed at Villingili at the beginning of September in a water villa on a full board basis. Although this island had only been open for around 6 weeks it was not apparent that this was the case. This was our 10th trip to the Maldives and we have probably visited about 20 islands in the course of our journeys.... more

Just came back from our 5 day stay in early November so the memories are fresh. Firstly, like another traveller said, we are travellers that tend to overlook minor details that people may find annoying. Certainly in a resort like Shangri-la Villingili though there was really nothing to fault. I'm sorry to hear other travellers had bad experiences with the... more

My husband and I have just returned from a holiday at the new shangri-la in Maldives. Waow! What a great experience! We stayed in one of the resort's water villa which was very spacious and comfortable. The ouside daybed was a dream and we very much enjoyed watching the sunset from there. The staff couldn't do enough to please us.... more

We just got back two weeks ago from our stay at the Shangri La. Do not believe any of the rather grumpy posts on this resort, it is spectacular. Your jaw will literally drop when you walk into your room. We stayed in the overwater villa and it is more beautiful and tasteful than any room we`ve ever stayed in,... more
