Kanifushi Vacation Rentals

"This review is written for fellow professional and frequent travelers who know what true five-star service looks and feels like. We recently stayed at Dusit Thani Maldives and had an exceptional experience that truly stands out, even among other five-star island resorts. We booked the Over Water Villa with Pool, which we highly recommend for its generous layout, serene privacy, and direct access to the house reef. From the moment we arrived, we were in excellent hands with our butler, Mona (Gulnoza). She was incredibly responsive, reliable, and proactive—anticipating needs before we voiced them and ensuring every detail of our stay was seamless. Dining was a highlight. The Sea Grill restaurant impressed us with both its culinary finesse and hospitality. A special mention to the grill chef whose skills elevated every dish, and to Slyp (Mohamed) for his exceptional service—warm, attentive, and consistently professional. We also had the pleasure of dining at Benjarong, Dusit Thani’s signature Thai restaurant, led by Rungnapa. Her deep knowledge of food and beverage, coupled with an evident passion for genuine hospitality, made each visit memorable. She’s a standout professional in every sense. Lastly, breakfast at The Market was a daily delight. While the variety and freshness of offerings were excellent, what made it even better was the gracious service from Shahina and Ahmed—always welcoming, efficient, and personable."

"Amazing first visit to Maldives. Incredible to see all the sea life so up close and personal just snorkeling even off the beach. Great for kids as well. We met couples with young babies even and they complimented staff."

"Amazing experience of staying in room 97 of the lagoon villas… the service from our room keeper was outstanding.. perfectly inline with the sunset.. we will have to return again.. "

"Really nice villas with a beautiful beach. We enjoyed our stay. The only downside is that the food is pretty repetitive and there are not many options. "

"With intermittent strong monsoon rains and winds, the water came thru the doors in the common areas. We absolutely loved the food and staff and never thought twice about eating anywhere else. John, our host was absolutely the best! Kind, perceptive and always helpful. Admin was also incredibly responsive via email and ensured that all of our requests and inquiries were promptly addressed. Can’t wait to go back! "
