Everything from the staff to the island had been a wonderful experience. Upon arrival, you are welcomed with a cold towel and iced tea and greeted by your host. The host provided exceptional hospitality the entire stay there. The island itself is bussing with life and just one week is not enough to see it all! Their house reef is one of the best in Maldives, albeit far but the sea life is worth visiting.

Exceptional honeymoon destination!

An amazing experience and I’ve never stayed anywhere with such attentive staff. They really do accommodate everything they can and suggested to make one of our favorites breakfast choices one day (off menu). The island is beautiful and we were in an overwater bungalow which was amazing. Snorkeling was great and we saw everything - tons of fish, turtles and rays. The buffet had plenty of choice and as vegetarians we never went hungry. We were full board and the drinks we paid for were very reasonably priced, which was great.

Overall would recommend 100%

uber relaxation awaits

Beautiful location. The island is really heavenly and the service was fantastic. It’s worth remembering that an internal flight of 60-90 to get to the island then a 15 min speed boat. So on the return journey you may need to leave 6/7 hours before you flight from Male. Once you are ok with that (and the internal flight cost) the. You are all.

The staff are just fantastic. The food is plentiful, fresh and quality. We even founds lots of vegan options on most days (although we feel with some care there could have been more) - including salads, pasta, curry and cheese less pizza

Snorkelling was great. There has been bleaching but also lots of regeneration. We saw large black top reef sharks, giant turtles and so many fish it all sizes. The house reefs might not be ideal for little ones, but there is also a pool. When the weather was rough we still found peaceful waters on the other side of the Island. Is 20 mins to walk around the island.

We were delighted to stay at Amari Havodda resort hotel for part of our honeymoon. Set on a beautiful island, the resort is a true marvel in the Maldivian Atoll. From the very beginning of our stay where we were promptly welcomed by an extremely friendly member of their staff at the airport (even though our flight ran v. late!) who took us through the check-in process for domestic flight transfers right to making us feel welcome when we arrived. We continued to be really pleasantly surprised by the Amari staff's friendly hospitality, tips and recommendations and accommodation of any requests we had during our stay. It is pricey, but as is any other resort brand in the Maldives. The value for money particularly comes in staff hospitality. As well as relaxation and beautiful beaches with amazing snorkelling, there are also other activities you can do at the resort. We booked a three-course cooking class with one of their chefs, which was absolutely amazing! I would really recommend a stay at Amari Havodda resort, you will not regret it.

Perfect Honeymoon, Perfect Stay

We stayed at Amari for our honeymoon at the end of June 2018, and it far exceeded our already high expectations.

We opted for an overwater villa, which are magic! The rooms are super comfortable, bed was amazing, and the view spectacular. We literally woke up, walked 10 paces, and were in turquoise blue water! The room has plenty of space, and to the rear the outdoor bathroom is great!

The facilities on the island are also wonderful, can’t fault them. My wife had one of the best massages of her life at the spa, the gym is more than good enough for a resort gym, the pool area is huge with awesome views, the Thari bar is a good spot to hang out, and the dining area is really nice.

And finally the staff are simply lovely. Everyone is so great, but especially guys like Shareef (awesome room service towel art!), Athif and Fazel really made our stay even more enjoyable.

Quick tips:
1. Get an overwater villa, you will not regret it.
2. Get on the free snorkeling tour as soon as you arrive, because after that they let you borrow snorkeling gear for the duration of your stay, which you will want. The reef surrounding the island is spectacular and the ease of getting to it is second to none. Expect small reef sharks, turtles, rays, and tonnes of colourful fish!
3.We opted for the full board which included all meals, because we are not big drinkers. If you do want to drink every day, then get the all inclusive.

We will be back, that’s for sure!

The most incredible place you can go to

This hotel has been the best place we’ve ever visited, because of its people. The staff are one of the nicest, most caring people you will see! They talk with you like a friend, not just like a client, they pamper and treat you as if you are the only person on the island.
The food every single day was incredibly delicious, plentyfull and with a lot of choice - if you don’t like something, they can whip up anything for you, just so they know you are satisfied!
The rooms are extremely comfortable and clean as the staff put in incredible effort to leave everything spotless and leave messages on your bed!
I dare to say this environment makes you feel as one big community and the people around have made it feel as the best trip we’ve ever been on!
Big thank you to the General Manager and to everyone who helped us make our stay incredible!

Good hotel especially if you like Indian food!

I think buffet foods do need someone important. Staff are nice and helpful. They will charge extra for drinks you can upgrade for all inclusive drinks but you need to hunt down the servers by the pool if you do need a drink.

Lovely friendly holiday

Great stay at the Amari Havodda
Very attemptive and friendly staff
Beautiful room (I was in a beach villa which turned out being bigger and having more privacy than the water villas)
And beautiful construction in general (swimming pool and lounge areas)
Good food
nice reef

Minor concern;
The journey from and to the Amari Havodda has to count for an extra 4-5hours (including waiting time) to the rest of your journey.

Pricy extras(massage $135, am excursion $65 tot)

Amari ruin my vacation

1. When we arrived, it takes more than one and a half hours to check in. and you need to check the status yourself. we asked two time about the arrangement, first time the lady said we need to wait for a car to semd us the the villa, when we wait for another 15 mins, two cars ready, but still not one gonna bring us to the villa, and we asked the lady second time, then she think she should bring us to the villas.

2. Don't think too much about the all inclusive plan, the drink selection is very limit and the wine quality is not that good. I

3. I have no idea about the all inclusive paln as when we finished daily excecise at the fit centre, we just found that there's out of water, then we go to the front desk to request for a bottle of water, the staff telling us they will refill in room water everyday. When we told the the fit center is out of water, then they grab us 2.

4. The most disappointment one is the check out procedure, we've received a letter for the check out arrangement on the next days. It stated that the cehck out time and lugguage collection time is 17:00, and the speed boat arranged at 17:30.

When the day comes, they come to our room at around 13:00 for lugguage collection, when we show them the letter the staff said he will come back later for the lugguage collection. and then we've received a call from front idesk, saying the just make a mistake on the arrangement amd need us pack all our things and get all things ready at 13:30, 30 mins to pack all thing

Отличное соотношение цена \ качество

Хороший отель за свои деньги (около 400$ в сутки за бич виллу на FB). Не делюкс, но все очень достойно. Остров выше средних размеров и живой коралловый риф, один из лучших на Мальдивах. Мелкие недостатки есть, но общей картины они не портят. Сложность дороги компенсируется отличным соотношением цена \ качество.

フォロアルバムの渡し忘れ

30分無料の撮影が付いてるのでして頂きフォトアルバム（$360ほど）を作成しましたが渡し忘れがあり空港まで届けてくれるとのことで2時間ほど待っていましたが間に合わず結局郵送となりました。きちんと届くのかも心配ですしその日の夜に出来上がると聞いていたのに現地で確認もできず悲しいです。
撮影の方は日本のアニメが好きで日本語を流暢にお話されていましたので困ることなく楽しめました。
何枚も撮っていただく中から18枚を決めるのはかなり時間を要しました。朝昼晩ビュッフェがついていてお腹がすいていなくても早起きして食べに行ってました。
年末年始でしたので年越し｢ガラディナー｣はとてもゴージャスでこちらのホテルにしてよかったと思い満足でした。（x'masから10日以上ですが3つのホテルに滞在致しました）

좋은 수중환경을 가진 보통의 리조트

127번 워터빌라에서 8박을 묵었습니다. 체크인할 때 부터 좀 매끄럽지 않았어요. 숙소내부에 비치되어 있다고 한 슬리퍼도 없었고, 우산도 망가져있었어요. 숙소관리 부분에서 좀 서투른 면이 보였습니다. 지내는 동안 2번이나 에어컨이 고장나서 기사를 불렀습니다. 오래걸리진 않았지만 그 시간을 허비한 것도 사실이지요. 그 외 수중환경도 음식도 괜찮았어요. 중국인이 많이 보였습니다. 좀 시끄러웠습니다. 신혼여행으로는 추천하지 않는 리조트입니다.
