Outrigger Maldives Maafushivaru Resort

An exceptional resort that will stay with us for a long time. The Island is beautiful and extremely well maintained by ground staff. The house reef is full of an abundance of marine life, as are the areas underneath the villa. We snorkelled day and into the early hours of the evening. The overwater pool villas are beautifully finished with a large floor plan. The deck area is the perfect balance of sun and shade. As most reviews have highlighted, it's the attentive staff that take this resort to the next level. Warm smiles, genuine service and no stone left unturned. Thank you to Jinah our butler, a true gentleman and extremely prompt with our requests. I must also mention Joy, Sashi, Muflih, Imadah and Chef Charminda and his team. Your service was impeccable. The food, especially the Maldivian curries were delicious, fresh and authentic. The food at this resort is varied daily and of very high quality. We ate at the Japanese restaurant which was delicious too. In all honesty, we were just as happy at the nightly dinner buffet, the food constantly changing and brilliant service. Also, a shout out to Chloe the Marine Biologist whose presentation on Manta Rays and Reef sharks was especially informative. Chloe also had time to chat when we seen her around the resort. Lastly, Zayan and Sabe who took us on our turtle and snorkelling excursion, great fun and very educational. I researched many resorts prior to booking, lm so very pleased we chose Outrigger for our stay. Dont hesitate, book this resort. A credit to management, the resort is a very well oiled machine with heart. We will return. Terry & Chris - Melb, Australia
