Just returned from Maldives and our experience was made terrible by management. The island is fine and view of ocean beautiful, but nothing else going for it. 1) Due to delays in flights, got to hotel past midnight, instead of midday, so missed half board meal. Manager Mr Nazeeh said he could not give us food, even though we paid... More

Our holiday in Holiday Island was amazing! We had the all-in and where very glad we took it! It's very expensive to go out of the all-in, water is like 4 dollar for 1 bottle! We had discounts on some thing if we asked it nice. We had an all-in list to choose our drinks like, water, coke(light), sprite, coctails,... More

We went to Holiday Island last year and loved it. We requested to be near the jetty and they placed us write next to it which was good and I would advise this!

Right from take off at Birmingham Airport we were looked after. On arrival at Dubai we found our departure gate very easily and got to Male airport slightly early. We then... More

We spent beautiful 9 days in the Holiday Island Resort in South Ari Atoll. I extensively used data on tripadvisor for the selection of the hotel, so here is my review back. Flight: We took a direct flight with Austrian from Viena to Male (and back) and it was a very convenient one. The staff was nice and took care... More

Been to the Maldives three times, Bandos, Olhuveli and now Holiday, the Maldives is our favourite place on earth. If this had been our first time it would have been our last. First arrival it looks lovely. Try to get a room on jetty side it's at least got a nice view of the sea and neighbouring Sun Island. The... More
