The Ritz-Carlton Maldives, Fari Islands Reviews

Excellent service and environment. Hotel was new . Good was great .. excellent sea view from villa... everything was beautiful over here .

Comfort, comfort and enjoyment

Not long after the hotel opened, the surrounding snorkeling environment is average, there are no corals, and there are few fish. It is far away from the four seasons. The design of the water house is very good, the filming effect is very good, and the food quality is very high

Perfect experience, very satisfied! Have the opportunity to go on vacation again.

unforgettable journey

Expensive but worth the money

10/10

I was really excited to visit the RC and had extremely high expectations. The RC staff blew them out of the water. It was our second visit to the Maldives and it was hard not to stay at our previous property, but the reviews seemed too good to be true for tried the RC. Communication before arrival was great. We were assigned a sunset room -- very happy with the room and amenities. The service is what shined - the best service I have had anywhere in the world. Very friendly and personal. The house reef/snorkeling is a work in progress, but we still found spots of great viewing. We were sad to leave, but hope to return with the full family soon.

Beyond amazing.. the staff has been superb, they have taken our experience to another level.. the facility is fantastic especially for families as the kids club with their amazing staff and activities made our 4 years old boy happy and the same for our 12 years girl.. they didn’t want to leave! Our butler, Maryam has made everything for us seem to be easy and doable, she did personalise every step of this journey and she has been always there for us day and night! Whenever we walked into a restaurant the staffs’ smiles would brighten up the space, they take good care of us and they make the kids feel so special.. We were lucky to meet every one, and Adnan you have a special place in our hearts now! Thank you for the memories and we can’t wait to be back! Much love from Sanad and Yasmina

This trip was a mix of friends and solo trip and I absolutely loved everything there. The service was exceptional starting with Maryam, Grace, Hishu and Shahzab and Naseem! I also absolutely love training and practicing tennis there with Luke who made this even a better experience The property is great and there is plenty of activities to do and go about your day there be it yoga, fishing, snorkeling tote bag paintings I also want to mention that we had a one year a seven month baby and the staff were something else with him and he absolutely having the time of his life with them due to there friendliness. Room are a bit smaller than expected and also the bed is smaller than expected however the view from the room makes up with that big time where we stayed in lagoon over water room Tip: never miss a sunset or a sunrise there

I highly recommend this luxurious resort for a luxury trip or honeymoon. The food is amazing, earning a 9.5/10 rating. While it may be a bit expensive compared to other resorts in Maldives, it is absolutely worth it. Don't miss their teppanyaki restaurant (live cooking) and the incredible dinner buffet on weekends. It's a truly indulgent experience you won't forget.

**Personal Review of The Ritz-Carlton Maldives, Fari Islands** My recent stay at The Ritz-Carlton Maldives, Fari Islands, was an unparalleled experience of luxury and impeccable service. Below, I detail specific aspects and personnel that made our trip memorable: ### Spa Services The spa services were exceptional, largely thanks to Masseur Malik and Masseuse Vujeta. Their skills were evident from our first visit, which led us to request their services again the very next day. The tranquility and expertise provided a rejuvenating experience that set the tone for our stay. ### Dining Experiences The culinary team across the various dining venues, including La Locanda, Arabesque, and Eau Bar, impressed us with their dedication and expertise. A special mention is due to Eresta and Yogi, who not only served us exquisite cocktails but also provided an enlightening masterclass in cocktails and wines. Their knowledge and passion added a unique flavor to our dining experience. Transportation Services Both our pick-up and drop-off services were handled with utmost professionalism and courtesy. Shaan at pick up, ensured our arrival was smooth and welcoming. Although he is not expecting us yet as the team that emailed me just mentioned that the pick up is at 11am, although I told them I am arriving at 7am from a liveaboard. Shaan tried his best to grab our luggages and passports as he mentioned about the weather disturbance, that he is arranging for guests to take the seaplane at the monent. We mentioned having came from a dive in the last 24hrs and would prefer to take a boat to the resort instead of the offered seaplane. He tried his best accommodating our request by checking all the parameters of safety while making sure we get to the resort as early as possible. He arranged everything seamlessly and was able to get back to us with a solution in less than an hour. That was the best! He picked us up where we are waiting with our friends, he settled our bill swiftly by speaking to the waitress, not sure how he did it, we left and borded from where we were. He even arranged for that! On departure, we had to leave early from the resort, again because of the weather disturbance. So we arrived 2:30hrs before the counters open. Yaseen met with us and made sure we settled where we want to go have dinner. He assisted us all the way to the check-in counter and send us off just before we went to the immigration. Yaseen’s calm and polite demeanor made our departure equally pleasant. Their prompt and efficient service was greatly appreciated. Although I am surprised about Ritz not having their own lounge, unlike the Four Season’s and Anantara. This will be expected somehow for a really expensive resort. Waiting to hear whether they will have it at the new airport coming up. At the resort: Housekeeping The housekeeping team operated seamlessly behind the scenes, ensuring our room was impeccably maintained with minimal intrusion. The few interactions we had were

We stayed 17 nights from Xmas to after new year. Enjoyed wonderful and peaceful moments. Thank You for GM Renato De Oliveira ,and my alicemeeha Eddie. The all stuff themselves willing to help us many little things. It is incredible. My son was taked care by beach shack stuff Amu and Jo , also VASLI take care us a lot. Mr Usami is art class teacher. My son like to paint cause he is very good art teacher. So my son took an art painting class a lot. Also I thank all the housekeeping team. They make really clean and we can stay very comfortable even 17 nights. The resort stuff moves really flexible and smart . Next year I will planning to bring my friend and stay 3 family togather. If you have a chance I recommend to go next island, there’s a shark snorkeling point.

This vacation was perhaps one of the best vacations we have had. The resort is simply unrivaled. The staff are unlike other staff that we have ever encountered and are truly caring and really enjoy what they do and enjoy making those who stay at the resort happy. The food is delicious, albeit pricey but this is the norm considering your isolation. The overwater villas are a masterpiece. We went end of April early May, which was great for us because there were enough clouds to provide cloud cover and shade. And the occasional heavy storm with high winds quickly passing through just added to the beauty of the setting. Shout out to Ammadey and Manish who made our stay extra wonderful. When I told Ammadey about a concern I had, his response was ‘Ma’am please do not stress. I will handle it.’ And at first, I thought ok let’s see. But he did everything and took care of us and went above and beyond to make sure I did not have to stress. We will be back as soon as we can.
