We chose Emerald Faarufushi Resort as the destination for our honeymoon, and it turned out to be an absolute dream come true. Our 4-night stay at the Beach Villa with Pool, coupled with the exceptional service of every staffs, as well as our wonderful host, Kunal, made our honeymoon an experience beyond compare. As we stepped onto the pristine shores of the resort, we were instantly captivated by the ethereal beauty of our Villa. The villa, adorned with luxurious amenities, seamlessly combined modern comforts with the natural allure of the Maldives. The private pool, surrounded by lush greenery and mere steps away from the sparkling ocean, offered us moments of intimacy and tranquility. Throughout our stay, Kunal, our gracious host, deserves special commendation for making our stay truly exceptional. From the moment we arrived, he greeted us with a warm smile and a genuine enthusiasm that instantly made us feel at home. Kunal's attention to detail was impeccable, and he went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of our honeymoon was flawless. Kunal made us feel like royalty, and we are immensely grateful for his genuine and personalized service. The Resort also offers a plethora of activities and excursions, and we took full advantage of the water sports and snorkeling opportunities to explore the breathtaking coral reefs and encounter exotic marine species. Each adventure was expertly organized by the resort, ensuring our safety and enjoyment at all times. The culinary experiences at Emerald Faarufushi Resort were simply sensational. The resort's restaurants and bars offered a diverse range of delectable dishes, each prepared with the finest ingredients and presented with artistic flair. Beyond the exquisite dining experiences, the resort's attention to sustainability and environmental conservation added an extra layer of significance to our stay. Overall, this is heaven of heavens that I cannot recommend enough.

We went as a couple to the island at the beginning of December, the journey is fairly straight forward from male and takes about an hour once you’re on the plan via one other island en route. Ifuru island isn’t 5 star. The food in the buffet restaurant isn’t hot, it is warm at best. There is limited choice and the “kids corner” food consists of plain pasta, chips and chicken nuggets. Nothing else for children. The rooms are clean and tidy but if you have a room near the restaurant you won’t sleep until home midnight as it’s so loud. Unless you are in the all inclusive plus you won’t get the mini bar stocked in your room. Some of the beach rooms walk out on to shrubbery and “gardens” and not pristine white sand like you imagine. The gym is very dated and not 5 star, the spa was overpriced at $150 for a facial and the trips are equally as expensive from the dive centre. $100 a person for a 2 hour trip or 15 minutes on a jet ski. It just felt like a rip off. Drinks are good from the bar near the pool but they vary throughout the resort, there is one female bar staff that gets it right but the others seem to make it up as they go along. I asked for a smoothie and it was curdled with sour yogurt in it. There isn’t much by way of snorkelling, we saw a few little black tip shark but the house reef is so far out you don’t really see much and they charge you $50 to take you to the reef. We had a few issues with the hotel as we were in the wrong room & we also thought we were all inclusive but it turned out some things weren’t included and we’d have to pay for things like Prosecco, some cocktails, pizza by the pool etc. The manager Marcel was pretty useless as resolving any of this, he didn’t apologise or even talk to us, he left it to our “buddy” who actually was good but it would have been nice to be acknowledged by the manager. He did sheepishly came over when we were checking out but he just blamed our travel agent for our problems and didn’t take any accountability. The representative from the agency, Sonia I think, was rude. Food at the waterfront is ok but it’s not great. Probably just about a Wetherspoons standard. Prices in the menu are ridiculous, $40 for a chicken salad starter. If I’d of been paying and ordered that I’d of sent it back at walked out, I got a plate of leaves and 2 bits of dry chicken. Food at the grill is much the same, ordered a steak which was tough and chewy and not great quality. Bad points - we were put in the wrong room type and the hotel could not change it. - the gym is very dated and doesn’t have the 5 star feel like some other resorts over looking the sea etc - food in the restaurant is not hot. It is luke warm at best & not much choice. - ice cream isn’t great, no cones, & just cups. It’s self serve and only 3 flavours a day which don’t change much. One scoop for all flavours which is in some dirty water, doesn’t feel clean. - resort shop very overpriced - $54 for cigarettes $49 for suncream - trip

It's so beautiful! Forever memories. It's more cost-effective than the first time I went to Lily Island in Maldives. The water is very good and the lagoon villa is beautiful, but the room I booked was reduced in price a lot later, which is a bit disappointing. I don't know if it's because of the peak season or off-season

my wife and I had a perfect honeymoon at You&Me. our host, Nittu, was fantastic with us throughout our stay and was always very attentive and helpful so that we lacked nothing and we had the best of experiences. The food in any of the restaurants is also fantastic and has a huge variety. The experience at the H2O restaurant (underwater) is exceptional but don't have high expectations about the food, it has to improve a lot, it has a very low quality compared to the place/restaurant. In conclusion, don't waste a lot of time looking and comparing different resorts for your honeymoon, at You&Me you will find the perfect place. thank you so much for everything

Many places in Madai have been polluted. It is still very good here. It is very hard to make the hotel into a work of art. All the furniture is the same weight as the jack, haha. It can only be said that it is the only hotel that wants to come back again. Come and live for a while to feel the real island life.
