As freshly married couple, we went to Kuramathi Isaland Resort for our dream Honeymoon. Since our arrival at Malé to our departure everything flowed as a dream. We had the privilege to travel by sea plane from Malé to Kuramathi, this takes about 15 minutes, and the sights we saw and the photos taken foresaw the experience we were about to live. I trully recommend the sea plane not only because of sights we see but also because the other possible transfer is the boat that takes a lot of time to arrive to the islands and does not allow the beautifull sky photos. When we arrived to Kuramathi it seems that every person is waiting for you; nothing fails and syncronization is almost at the second; there is no time to wait. We were recived with a welcome coktail and for each couple one staff member to explain every detail of your stay. We had booked for a bech villa, but thay gave us a superior beach villa with jacuzzi for the same price...nice surprise!!! When we arrived to our acommodation all our bags were waiting at the door. This was the begining of a dream stay and a dream travel.

During our stay we had breakfast and lunch at the buffet and it was like paradise with a great variety of choices and every staff member very friendly. At this buffet we had the same table every day as well as the same waiter. I think this is great to create empathies. As we had an select all inclusive, we could drink almost everything we want, except for champagne, and have dinner in every restaurants in the island. Kuramathi has a Barbeque restaurant, Pizzeria,Thai, Sea food, Indian and a coffe shop. We had dinner in all of them and the food was top class. With our package we could select wine à la carte which were great wine choices. I think that Kuramathi is one of the biggest islands of Maldives, fact is that when were walking along the island at day or nigth rarely we rarely crossed paths with someone, it looks the island is just for us. We also had a SPA experience, one hour full body couple massage with fruits and champagne, a very enjoyable and relax moment. Of course that the all day snorkling with all kind of sea life is undoubtedly an unforgettable experience. We also had the Discover Scuba Diving (DSD) which is a well spent money. The electric buggys are a great way to travel through the island but we really enjoyed our walks. As all other guest we had the chance of doing two excursions, one Sunset Cruise and a visit to Local Island Rasdhoo. The sunset cruis was great and we had the chance to wacth dolpinhs and flying fishies. The visit to local island Rasdhoo was a bit disappointing because the boat lives us ther for two ours and the locals only want to sell you something, thers garbage every were and no one is intersted in you or talking to you only in your money.

Every time we arrived to our room it has been cleand up and we haven't even saw the cleaning staff. All paths along the island are cleaned every morning. No one askes you for tips and every one is working with a big smile and and ready to help if needed.

One thing that i think could be improved is the Internet connection. It should be a free acess in all island.

Of course, the hard part is living this paradise...but even when living everything is syncronized and when the sea plane arrives all is ready and thers no time to wait. At the end we have no doubt tha Kuramathi is one of the best resorts in Maldives, one of the best palces in the world to dive and for sure we will go back again some day!!!

We have just returned and had the most fantastic holiday. We went with my sister and her husband and from the moment we got up in the morning to going to bed our days were filled with as much activity or as little as we wanted. Walking down the sand spit in perfect settings and the sea is really that colour! I can definitely recommend the ice cream place. We stayed in a water villa and it was just lovely and while we were there we celebrated a anniversary and a birthday and the bed was decorated with lovely hibiscus flowers, we then had dinner in the Island BBQ restaurant where they surprised us with a birthday cake for my husband and I hadn't even asked for that so a lovely treat.

We saw al sorts of fish from the reef sharks to moray eels and even a turtle the only thing I have suggested is some shade at the end of the jetty where a lot of people go snorkelling from apart from that perfection.

When you come to Kuramathi it is a must to stay in Water Villa with Jacuzi !!! Snorkelling from the deck and having sun bath just beside your own shower is great. On the way to restaurant you see great sharks by the beach 'playing' with fish. Spa is great, heaving massage there was one of the best things in the world :-) Eco Ceter, Nature trail and many beautiful flowers and trees are amazing, so are the ... bats :-) It is place for diving, snorkeling and having a drink in the evening on the beach. I would change nothing. Food and Staff were great :-) Spending the time in Kuramathi is amazing, because it is a first time in my life, when during the stay I was thinking when to come back, and how long will I be waiting till I see lovely blue ocean again ....

It was our 1st time in Maldives, and our honeymoon. We absolutely loved it. The island is quite big and has loads of plants and flowers. You don't see many other tourists on the island. We choose the select all inclusive and didn't regret it. We never had lunch or diner at the buffet restaurant but always à la carte. They were excellent - especially the barbecue, our favorite.
Our villa on piloti with jacuzzi was luxurious. Housekeeping was done twice by day.
2 excursions were planed: visit of Rasdhoo and sunset cruise. However, due to 2 days of rain, we couldn't do them, but no regret, as people told us that visit to rasdhoo wasn't fantastic.
We loved it and couldn't believe that this hotel is a 4*. My, what 5* must be...!
