The hype
The snorkeling is unbeatable and the island is impeccably clean, but the food variety could be better.

사람들이 좋아하는 이유
- Incredible house reef with turtles, reef sharks, and rays
- Adults-only areas including a dedicated pool and restaurant
- Excellent dive center and whale shark excursions
한눈에 보기: The mandatory $400 seaplane transfer stings, and the buffet food gets repetitive after a few days, but the marine life makes it entirely worth it.
@karinsworldoftravel님의 리뷰: I took a seaplane to this incredible island and it was the ultimate escape. The white sand beaches were practically empty, and staying in an overwater villa was a dream come true. If you need to disconnect, this is the place.

Are kids allowed?

Do I need to bring cash?
Most expenses are charged to your room, but bringing some small US dollars for tipping the staff is highly recommended.
내부자 팁
- ✨
Book the full-day whale shark excursion early—it's a bucket-list experience and spots fill up fast.
- ✨
The sunset bar in the adults-only section is the best spot on the island for golden hour drinks.
- ✨
If you're prone to seasickness, take medication before the seaplane ride, as it can get bumpy.
가기 전에 알아야 할 5가지
💡The seaplane luggage limit is strict: 20kg checked and 5kg carry-on. You will pay extra for overweight bags.
💡The sand is so soft and pathways are unpaved, so you literally won't need shoes for your entire stay.
💡The 'Garden Rooms' are the budget option but lack the quintessential Maldives water views.
💡There is a $6 per person, per night 'Green Tax' that isn't always included in the upfront booking price.
💡The island has its own time zone (island time) to give guests an extra hour of daylight.
