We had expected the breath taking physical beauty of the island, but were really amazed by the caring and professional staff throughout our stay: from the transfer assistant at arrival in Male, to the villa host who organized our meals and excursions, to the culinary director overseeing the meal preparation at the 6 restaurants, to the bar tenders, servers, and cleaners. Our villa on the beach was spacious and comfortable but not extravagant. The food and alcoholic offerings were at premium level. There was live music and trivia nights. Our package included a dolphin tour (we saw 5 of them about 30 minutes away from the island) and a photo session. The resort has its own app with all the necessary information for your stay. We really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend the resort.

What an amazing resort! As a single traveler, the transfers to and from the resort were seemless. I enjoyed the property and having the bicycle and golf cart access, made getting around easy. But what made this resort a highlight was the staff. Everyone was cheerful and outgoing. This resort had it all - good food, beautiful location and much much more. Can't wait to return.

Heaven on Earth

We already had extremely high expectations both of the Maldives and Faarafushi but OH MY GOODNESS did Faarafushi exceed those expectations! It is truly heaven on earth. The rooms are divine, the sea life is out of this world, the food is delectable, the cocktails and wine selection are to die for, the spa is bliss, but the staff is what makes this place even more special than you can imagine! Such kind and friendly people! Sundar and Ankur are both fantastic cocktail makers and kind and funny people. Sundar made us the most special cocktails and led a wonderful cocktail class and Ankur led a super interesting molecular mixology class, neither of which you should miss! Vishal gave “turn down service” a whole new meaning with his incredible decorations, and also treated us to birthday decorations for my husband’s birthday and honeymoon decorations. True works of art! We don’t know our masseurs name unfortunately but we had the best Balinese couples massage of our lives! Priyanka was our waitress a couple of nights and was just the sweetest and most attentive waitress one could imagine! We also loved Mohammed and Rohit who told us a lot about the Maldives and Rohit helped us plan our trip to Agra (where we were off to next). And finally our INCREDIBLE host Fayaz who was simply amazing! Organised everything to perfection, always checked in on us and made sure we were happy with everything and just made the whole experience perfection. Run don’t walk to this resort! It is HEAVEN!

This resort is a true paradise. Everything is immaculate and is built not only to function but to instill an atmosphere of relaxation. The staff are all wonderful. Each one will greet you with a smile and will cater to your every need without delay. Our butler Vikas was amazing and he was always a friendly face to see around the resort. The food quality is impressive, especially for an all-inclusive resort. The villa was well stocked with snacks and supplies and was replenished daily. The cleaning crew made our villa look brand new every day. The view from the over water villa was spectacular. The infinity pool and the ocean were both in full view from the bed, which was an amazing sight to wake up to each morning. My wife and I could not have had a better experience for our honeymoon.

My wife and I celebrated our anniversary at Emerald Faarufushi and had an amazing time. I must say it exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we stepped into Malé until the time of our departure, we experienced impeccable service and a warm hospitality that made our stay truly memorable. We were fortunate to have Elite as our vila host. His excellent guest services elevated our experience to a whole new level. Throughout our stay, Elite consistently went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of our vacation was taken care of. We wholeheartedly recommend Emerald Faarufushi Resort to fellow travellers seeking a remarkable resort experience in Maldives. The hotel's luxurious ambiance, coupled with its excellent facilities and delightful dining options, create a perfect oasis for celebrating special milestones. We look forward to returning to Emerald Faarufushi in the future.

Fantastic stay

We spent a week in the resort for our honeymoon and had a fantastic time. It is indeed a bit of a trek from Male (50min seaplane flight) but well worth the journey! We had a water villa, which had a big terrace and pool, and the bathroom was also bigger than what we expected. Everything of course was brand new as the resort had just opened. There were bikes that one could use to drive around in the resort. Food/restaurants were better than what we expected from a diversity and food quality perspective. The staff was super friendly, our butler Kunal in particular helped make our stay unforgettable. We also did a fair bit of diving and the people at the dive centre were excellent and very professional (special thanks to Vladi our instructor). One of the most memorable activities we did during our week was the sandbank lunch - they drop you off on a small private island to spend an afternoon, with lunch and beverages and would highly recommend that.
