Furaveri Maldives

This review is very split: I can't say more about the physical appearance of the island itself and the property; however, the service almost ruins all of this. I read numerous complaints about the services on reviews boards about this place so I braced myself, but I could not imagine it would be this bad. The positive: The house reef was unbelievably abundant, full of hundreds of types of fish, and incredible! The rooms (we stayed in two) were beautifully appointed and designed. The food was high quality and very tasty. Cocktails were delicious (but beware that since service is incredibly slow/understaffed, you will wait upwards of 20-30 mins for a cocktail). The negative (more like disastrous): I do not know where to begin. My husband and I tried to make light of the situation and place "bets" between the two of us betting that it can't get worse, but it actually did over the course of our stay resulting in a horrible ending that left us roomless and dragging our own suitcases in the 90-degree sun and heat across the sand to various points in a five-star resort for two hours. The staff consisted of hard-working and kind individuals, but unfortunately, this gorgeous resort lacks any sort of coordination, accountability and is being frankly ruined due to the lack of proper management. Our approach was to minimize requesting anything and avoiding any contact with staff as much as possible because each time just resulted in utter failure. This is NOT how it should be.

Beautiful island. Was better 2 years ago, when there were less villas and the attitude was accordingly better

Amazing resort! One of the most beautiful Islands in Maldives! New beautiful and very large Villas. Fantastic Stuff! tasty healthy food. I love Furaveri and I will always return there with great pleasure!

Nature, snorkeling possibility right at the reef, even turtles hatching next to our villa

The staff here was amazing! We felt welcomed the entire time and staff went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and happy. We booked the all inclusive option, which apparently was new, and so it was very confusing as to what was chargeable and what was included. Once we sat down and talked it out with a staff member, it was easy but it was definitely different than any other all inclusive hotels we have been to. Would absolutely recommend this resort! Work with Ina (water sports), Afra (front desk), and Jesha (bar)!

I stayed in a beach pool villa by the sea. The villa was amazing. Everything was beautiful. I had the full board package and what I did not like was the fact that I had to pay for water during the meal courses. They consider water part of other braverages and alcohol. They do not have much evening entartainement. They had a couple of so called "live misic" with one person playing the guitar, but not a proper set up for dancing nights to have some fun.

My wife and I stayed at this resort for our Honeymoon. We could not have picked a better location and hotel. The staff went above and beyond what is expected. They are so friendly and welcoming and by the end of the trip we knew them by first name basis. The island is stunning with so many things to do. The lagoon and house reef is full of fish and there is even a resident Turtle. Food was delicious and we were never left wanting anything. We will definitely be returning and can't wait!! Highly recommended.

When we arrived in Male we were taken care of by a Furaveri employee who handled everything from our boarding passes for the seaplane to our luggage. The one hour seaplane ride to the resort was so spectacular and scenic, we highly reccomend. We arrived in beautiful Furaveri and were welcomed by the most friendly staff, live music, drinks and beautiful scenery. The staff here pay a lot of attention to detail. Nothing is ever too much trouble. The pool was cleaned daily, room was restocked every morning and the rooms cleaned twice a day. The gentleman Robin who maintained our room for 10 days, is one of the sweetest most hardworking people we’ve ever met. He exceeded our expectations in every way and went out of his way to make sure everything was absolutely perfect. Severa, Eva, Iqbal, Alisha, Him, Zuhair, Dalim and Safeer are also some of the few amazing people my fiancé and I had the pleasure of meeting. We can’t wait to see you all again! The food is exceptional, rooms and ammentities are top knotch and the ocean unlike anything we’ve ever seen before. Thank you all for having us at your beautiful resort! Until next time..

It is the best place to stay, clean property and excellent customer service I would like to give them 200 over 100. Because it is amazing words can not express how the staff make your stay unforgettable. I would like to than especially nichan ( I might not write his name correctly) who was in charge in reception night of 22 to 23 January who made effort to handle my issue with airlines transporter from island to male. Also we had one from staff waiting for us at the airport to help us to Check in and walk us to customs. I would like to thank everyone from the property to make our dream vacation. Food, service and property are great. It is worth it every penny you spend over this place I highly recommend this place for dream vacation

Excellent. Great place to relax and the scenery was to die for. Will definitely be going back
