On arrival we were taken to our room by buggy, which at first seemed lovely. However our driver gave us a tour past shabbiest parts of the island, which only added to our disappointment when we saw our delux room … which was dark and grim. Rather than ruin our stay, I decided to lay out additional cost to upgrade our room to one on the other side of the island, and that’s when things started to look up.

My husband and I had an unforgettable stay at Bandos Maldives! From start to finish, everything was perfect. The resort is absolutely beautiful, the food was delicious, and the service was exceptional. Our overwater villa offered breathtaking views and complete serenity. What truly made our stay special was the warm and attentive staff. Everyone was friendly and welcoming, always ready to help with a smile. A special shoutout to Shaavon at Huvan restaurant, who went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience, his attention to detail and kindness didn’t go unnoticed! He even went out his way to come say goodbye to us right before leaving the island. Bandos Maldives gave us the perfect mix of relaxation, adventure, and romance. We left with full hearts and beautiful memories, and we’re already dreaming of coming back. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a slice of paradise!

Our stay in Bandos couldn’t have been better. We stayed in a Superior Beach Villa, 1 minute walk from the beach. Room was very clean and serviced every morning whilst we were at breakfast. We went all inclusive and were very happy with what was included and what wasn’t. Food choices from the buffet were excellent and the restaurant staff were great. As we had a late return flight we booked a massage at the spa and spent a couple of hours before and after relaxing on the sun beds and shower before departure. Risma and Ploy gave us a great massage. We definitely will be back to Bandos - it’s just a matter of saving up!!!!

A beautiful island just below 30 minutes from Male. The corals reefs surrounding the island is wonderful. Food could be better - less variety, mostly Malidivian cuisine is served every meal.
