Hvorfor folk elsker det
- Turtle Airport: The house reef is teeming with green sea turtles that are incredibly easy to spot
- Three-in-One Resort: Distinct zones (Sangu, 'O', Main) allow you to choose your vibe—romantic, family-friendly, or lively
- Rare Amenities: One of the few Maldivian islands with a full 6-hole golf course and driving range
Hurtig oversigt: It’s a bustling village, not a deserted island—expect golf carts, seaplanes, and a Friday night party that actually gets loud.
Anmeldt af @SarahMiller4485217: I stayed in this Beach Bungalow and honestly, the all-inclusive package is a game changer. Opening the fridge to find free wine and beer made my day! The room is rustic but cozy, and stepping right onto the beach is unbeatable. Perfect for a chill, value-packed escape.

Reality check
The 'All Inclusive Plus' is great for drinks but restricts you to buffet dining; you'll pay extra for the good a la carte restaurants.
- You get bored easily and need golf, tennis, and nightly entertainment
- You are a diver or snorkeler obsessed with turtles
- You want an adults-only experience (Sangu) without paying $1,000+ a night
Renhed & Vedligeholdelse

- Housekeeping: Twice daily service (morning clean + evening turndown). consistently rated 'Exceptional' on Agoda.
- Bathroom hygiene: Open-air bathrooms in villas are spotless but expect the occasional ant or gecko (nature of the tropics).
- Maintenance: Older garden bungalows show wear, but Sangu Water Villas are freshly renovated for 2025.
- Linens & towels: Crisp and replaced daily if left on the floor; beach towels provided in room.
- Odors & scents: Fresh sea breeze dominates; no complaints of mustiness in renovated rooms.

Ofte stillede spørgsmål og skjulte tips
Alt hvad du gerne vil vide før du booker.
Is the seaplane transfer included?
No, it costs approximately $400 roundtrip per adult and must be booked through the resort.
Can I fly my drone?
Strictly no. You can only fly it at the jetty or house reef with written permission from the General Manager.
What is the difference between All Inclusive Plus and Gold?
Gold adds bottles of wine, one a la carte lunch/dinner per day, laundry service, and a free round of golf. Plus is just buffet dining and drinks by the glass.
Do the Water Villas have direct reef access?
No. They have steps into the lagoon (sand/seagrass). The house reef drop-off is a swim away, accessible via the jetty.
Are there mosquitoes?
Yes, it's a lush island. Fogging happens daily, but bring repellent. Sandflies can also be an issue on the beach.
Is there a doctor on the island?
Yes, there is a medical clinic and a hyperbaric chamber (rare for a resort) due to the large dive center.
Insidertips
- ✨
The 'O' Resort pool is often the quietest spot on the island, even if you aren't staying in that zone (as long as you are 12+).
- ✨
Snorkel the shipwreck on the house reef—it's accessible from the jetty and usually surrounded by batfish.
- ✨
You can rent a bike for about $10/day to get around the massive island faster.
5 ting du bør vide før du tager af sted
💡The 'Garden Bungalows' are essentially in a back alley behind the beach villas—zero view.
💡The sea grass on the north side is vital for the turtles, so don't complain about it—it's why they are there.
💡The 'all-inclusive' wine by the glass is drinkable but basic; wine snobs should upgrade to Gold.
💡You might see 'fruit bats' (flying foxes) hanging from the trees during the day—they are harmless and huge.
💡The Sangu Water Villas were refurbished for 2025, so they feel much fresher than the older garden rooms.
