Riff von Maafushi

My stay had many positive aspects, but unfortunately also one very troubling incident. The service from Anju and Abishek at the restaurants was exceptional—professional, kind, and always attentive. Anju, especially, truly stood out with her warmth and dedication. If I could rate the staff alone, they would absolutely deserve five stars. The issue occurred at reception upon our arrival. We were charged an amount for the domestic flight, transfers, and taxes that did not match the expected total based on the official exchange rate of that day. We paid in cash and, unlike all other payments during our stay, we were not given any receipt. We only realized the inconsistency once back home. This lack of transparency was extremely disappointing and left us with a very negative impression, especially considering how well everything else at the resort is managed. Aside from this, the resort itself is beautiful and well maintained: clean facilities, a beach that is cared for daily, excellent water villas, clear water, and varied, high-quality food. The majority of the staff was friendly and professional. Would I return? I’m not sure. The resort has many strengths, but this incident at reception affected our overall experience. The five stars I give are exclusively for Anju, Abishek, and the staff members who clearly work with honesty and dedication.

Eine wunderschöne Insel mit kurzer Transferzeit. Super schöne Beach Villen mit Pool, Strand top, Riff top - alles wärmstens zu empfehlen!

We had an absolutely amazing time – just the way we imagined our honeymoon! The Ifuru Island Resort made it truly special. We stayed in Beach Villa 321, which had a particularly beautiful beach access with a rectangular layout, allowing us to relax comfortably in our private garden. The open-air bathroom and direct beach access were perfect.We were there over Halloween, and the celebrations delighted us – from the foam pool party in the afternoon to the festive dinner and outdoor party in the evening. The whole staff was dressed up and created a great atmosphere.Ravi from Sri Lanka did an outstanding job with housekeeping, and the food at six different venues was excellent. The buffet offered delicious themed nights, and the à la carte restaurants like the Waterfront provided top quality and great service, especially from our waiter Sandesh.Evenings at the Hubba Hubba Bar with live acts like belly dancing, LED and fire shows, plus great service from Sumit and Chamod, were highlights. Our personal buddy Suaid was fantastic and took care of everything.As part of our honeymoon, we enjoyed a complimentary 50-minute couples massage. With all the water sports, snorkeling, and excursions, it’s impossible to get bored. We did two snorkeling trips as beginners – both unforgettable.All in all, two weeks in paradise – the most beautiful vacation of our lives.
