Komandoo Island Resort & Spa

We are leaving in few days, I thought I would take the time out to write this review. Komandoo truly is paradise on earth. During our 8th visit we are still left completely in awe of its breathtaking, magical views. No matter how many times we return, this island continues to capture our hearts with its beauty, serenity, and warmth. Every visit feels like the first time, and the commitment to excellence from the champions makes it even more special. The champions at Komandoo go above and beyond to make every moment unforgettable. Nothing is ever too much for them, they are always eager to make sure every need is met with a smile. The selection of food is, as always, outstanding, with a diverse range of flavors and dishes that are beautifully presented and delicious. A special shoutout to some of the incredible staff members who made our stay extraordinary: * Kitchen: Alex, Chandana, Rajat, Anil, Sabuj, Azad, Mahesh, Ranjit and Naren all of you crafted meals that were pure culinary masterpieces. * Waiters: Haneef, Riza, Jumaan, Kaleem, Dickshana & Zhoona you made every dining experience feel personal and memorable with your impeccable service and warmth. * Roomboy: Ahmed AR thank you for keeping our villa spotless and always greeting us with such kindness. * Bar: Sanwar, Asitha, Suraj, and Ibrahim every mocktail and drink was perfection. * Reception: Adhil, Madah, Bishaan, Shimal, Niru & Mohamed thank you for making sure everything was to perfection. * Big thank you to all the champions who we may have missed & to everyone who work behind the scenes. I visited the Duniye Spa few times, every massage session felt like pure luxury. The therapists were skilled, attentive, and tailored the treatment perfectly to my needs. Whether it was deep tissue or a soothing relaxation massage, every session was a perfect blend of technique and care. I left each time feeling completely rejuvenated, with all the stress and tension melted away. Everyday we went snorkelling and seen turtles, sting rays, reef sharks and lots of amazing sea life. There is alot to see! Komandoo isn’t just a resort, it’s a place where you feel at home, surrounded by beauty and cared for by incredible people. We are already looking forward to our next visit!

From the greeting to the goodbye, every single second was amazing. Komandoo is a place to feel special, to feel looked after and to feel relaxed! I cannot rate the wonderful staff highly enough and special mentions go to Adil with his wit and charm ever-present throughout our stay and to Dickshan, Auman and Youssef who always looked after us well at every mealtime. All 4 of these lovely people are diamonds, the absolute definition of hospitality. I realise I have only mentioned 4 names, but if I could list everyone from cleaning team, grounds, hospitality (reception, bar, restaurant) catering, and facilities, I would! Everyone on Komandoo is absolutely dedicated to make your stay memorable and outstanding. Our room (Jacuzzi Beach Villa) was wonderful too, well stocked, well presented, super clean, smelled so lovely with the oil burner and the outdoor bathroom was awesome! Again, very well resourced out there too. The groundskeepers work very hard too, not only to maintain the beautiful island but also to fulfill their eco-pledge. The sunset cruise was a nice add-on, included in our all inclusive package and so was one meal (for a 5 night stay) at Aqua, the island’s a la carte restaurant…simply stunning! We loved not wearing shoes, bare feet is the way to go on Komandoo…go there, escape your worries and completely unwind, enjoy amazing food and drink, and gaze at the Indian Ocean in the warm evening breeze. Enjoy the wonderful wildlife that call Komandoo their home. We saw lovely birds, crabs, fascinating hermits, lizards and a gorgeous chameleon as well as the reef wildlife when snorkelling. A top notch holiday! Bravo, Komandoo team. Keep up the fantastic work you do. Miss you already!

Would highly recommend Komandoo Island as a place to completely recharge and relax. From the moment we arrived via our scenic seaplane transfer, we were made very welcome and treated exceptionally well by a great team of “Champions” who went above and beyond throughout the duration of our 12 night stay. The food was of an exceptional standard in both the Falhu and Aqua Restaurants. All the staff were very attentive and gave it a very personal touch, always with a big smile to greet you. A special mention must go to Yousuf whose personality shone through . All the bar staff were very friendly and always happy to engage in conversation, even to the point of remembering our drinks order!! The Thundi bar was a personal favourite on our morning walk around this wonderful island and again later in the afternoon for a refreshing gin & tonic. Our beach ️ villa on the sunrise side of the island was just perfect and kept immaculately clean by the excellent house keeping guys, with amazing towel characters to greet us!! And not forgetting the awesome job carried out by the gardening team. Everyday the happiest gardener ‍ with the biggest grin came along the beach clearing fallen leaves and making the sand perfect . Overall one of the best holiday destinations we have ever visited. Claire & Neil

Just returned from a weeks stay. Worth every penny and journey time. Couldn't fault anything. Food, entire team from management to porters, all excellent. Nice gym, safe snorkelling, outstanding service. Many returning visitors for a reason. Will be joining the list.

a wonderful island, a wonderful resort, run by wonderful people throughout. paradise on earth. great villa with everything you need, private beach, snorkeling on the reef in 5 minutes. great food, great people who all work with pride and excellence. can't get any better.

The best. Been to 9 different islands over the years. Komandoo is the perfect combination - beaches, room standards, wonderful staff and great food. Many resorts now are focused on the wrong thing. This island delivers service. Their staff are so welcoming and helpful. Barefoot - just fantastic.
