Kudafushi Resort & Spa - All Inclusive

We initially came to the Kudafushi Resort & Spa in the Maldives for a brief and quality relaxing holiday as I am engaged in the Finance Risk segment in the UK and my agenda is significantly demanding. Upon glancing at the ‘water landing platform’ from the seaplane I was immediately enchanted by the ‘sign of adventure’ amidst the exquisite location of the resort situated in a gulf of white sandy beaches intertwined with bright green flora and surrounded by crystal blue ocean lagoon ! Immediately with our arrival, I was fascinated by the resort amenities and understood that this is a truly unique resort with a clearly embedded ‘exceeding guests expectations approach’ and an enthusiastic attitude to ensure that the guest is fully supplied during their holiday- via an exceptional service and professionalism demonstrated by each department and client facing segment of the Resort ! The resort is exceptionally clean, well-managed, easily accessible and offers an exquisite combination of a variety of activities amidst white sandy beaches, green flora and an exclusive selection of beach and water villa accommodation ! Amidst the adventure of a well defined exclusivity, all client facing segments of the Resort demonstrated consistent engagement, commitment, professionalism, responsiveness, energy and diligence in executing embedded responsibilities. I am specifically impressed by the quality of service on behalf of the Reception team, F&B Management and logistics who exhibited an insightful vision of leadership, positive energy and consistency in anticipating the requirements and providing the most optimal solution based on the circumstances. Specific ‘thank you’ to the F&B Manager Pichini for the continuously demonstrated due diligence, professional commitment and creative leadership in maintaining an excellent selection of Asian, Mediterranean, Maldivian and Mexican cuisine intertwined with traditional English flavours. Pichini's profound understanding of taste anticipation of guests’ preferences has served as a magnificent foundation for a global cuisine representation marked by a leadership in a culture of excellency ! Significant ‘thank you’ to the resort onsite Reservations Team, under the coordination of Sahan K for being extremely efficient, diligent, punctual and flexible in arranging and confirming the internal bookings in the system as well as coordinating the seaplane transfers. This brilliant insight, professionalism, dedication, responsiveness, diligence and value-added positive energy have been evident in circumstances necessitating ‘effortless functionality and immediate connectivity’ with respect to unprecedented modifications of the booking terms. As I prepare to embark on the subsequent requirement of my professional commitment I redefine my holiday stay at the Kudafushi Resort as the cornerstone for demonstrating positive energy, uniquely blended atmosphere of culture, history and tradition, and refer to these foundations to repl

Absolute paradise.. turquiose water and coral white sand (whichvnever gets hot!) Food was great with some great spicey local curry. The client host Alessio took time for absolutely everyone, lovely guy. The reef is teaming with life, turtles, rays and sharks that are quite inquisitive but harmless. And, of course so many other tropical fish. A highlight was having baby sharks swimming around our feet in the shallow surf.. magical.

It was our tenth trip to the Maldives and we were a little apprehensive, afraid we'd be jaded or simply disappointed. In fact, quite the opposite - we had our best stay ever at Kudafushi. Superb weather from start to finish, a magnificent lagoon, a beautiful island and probably the best resort from every point of view. The villas are spacious and finely decorated, and the bathrooms are brilliant. The hotel staff are attentive, welcoming without being intrusive. It's also the best buffet we've had so far, with a wide variety of cuisine and a grill serving fresh fish every lunchtime and evening. A small detail that makes all the difference: your drinks are only served when you arrive at the table. But what makes all the difference is the exceptional quality of the reef, which gave us the best snorkeling ever, with an unprecedented diversity of species (leopard rays, sharks, turtles, moray eels, octopus, cuttlefish, and the grail: manta rays just a stone's throw from the boat ressort, an unforgettable experience). We were lucky enough to be upgraded to a stilt house with pool for the last two days, and to top it all off, a dolphin visited us in the late afternoon, literally at the foot of our water villa.
