We’ve stayed at the Kudarah island for 10 night May 2024 and had an outstanding vacation. The personal was so kind, all the food was perfect, the diving options are amazing, plus the beach villa with private front pool was so great.

Resort arranged early seaplane schedule so we can early check in and start our holiday asap. Staff are nice and friendly. Spa is good.
My wife and I just returned from our honeymoon at the Amaya Kuda Rah. We had an amazing experience. The staff were extremely pleasant and accommodating. We appreciated the boutique resort feel. There was one restaurant with very attentive staff. Meals were often in a buffet style but we noticed that the best offerings were from nights offering limited menu items.
We have just returned from an amazing holiday on Amaya Kuda Rah and are already missing the resort!! All the staff and mangers were welcoming, attentive and very friendly. A special shoutout to Imam, Akbaar, Mangu, Nazeer and all the chefs; they all went above and beyond to look after us! The island is absolutely beautiful and there is so much to see in the ocean around the island, definitely visit the guys in the dive centre! The island is really well kept and well managed. If your looking for a relaxing holiday then it’s the perfect place however don’t forgot to bring mosquito spray and bite cream!

Nice enough, small resort with limited facilities
Nice location, beautiful beaches. Husband enjoyed the diving although facilities on the whole ie gym and spa were not brilliant, small and limited, spa was massively overpriced. Whilst the staff were very friendly and happy to help we had a few comments from a couple of staff mebers making it clear they were after a tip! We were also interrupted whilst having dinner or a drink on several occasions to constantly ask us for feedback and even when we were leaving asked to leave a trip advisor review there and then! I explained we had half an hour before leaving for home so wouldn't be doing that
Overall was very good particularly the customer service was extremely good. Hotel management team was very present & approachable.
However we were all expecting air conditioning throughout in the water villa especially it’s an enclosed bathroom. There was no AC nor fan in the bathroom and was recommended not to open the door in between the bedroom & bathroom which caused condensation. We tried but the heat/humidity made it hard to do whatever for a minute or 2 without sweating. This was very disappointing for 4.5* resort.
Food was ok, plenty to choose from and will not go hungry. We were AI and drinks were included which were very good.
The Chefs even provided us with custom made fish dishes which were very delicious.
My friends did the fishing excursion but the Maldivian style was not for anyone but there weren’t any fishing rods as another option.
We didn’t do any of the free excursions as weather wasn’t on our side.
We stayed on the water villa and there were many fishes around for snorkeling but be aware that the bottom of the water was very rocky so water shoes are the must.
Chanaka, the Guest Experience Manager was very helpful and made sure all guests enjoying their time on the island & leaving there with a big smile.
It was a pleasant stay with few minor hiccups. Thank you for taking care of us.
Fantastisk service och renlighet. Underbara tvåvåningsvillor med bra läge vid vattnet. Bekväma sängar och kuddar. Vänlig personal. God mat. Bra dykning och snorkling. Rekommenderas varmt.
Amaya Kuda Rah ist ein kleines Paradies, fantastischer Strand, super Restaurant, herzliche Mitarbeiter die einem jeden Wunsch erfüllen. Sehr sauber,es waren sehr viele Meeresbewohner zu sehn, wir hatten eine fantastische Zeit dort.Diesen wunderschönen Urlaub werden wir niemals vergessen und kommen sicher wieder.
Isola molto piccola ideale per il relax. Siamo stati molto bene ed abbiamo avuto la fortuna di assaporare i sapori di terre lontane dalla nostra. Il personale è cordiale e molto disponibile molto ben guidato da Chanaka il quale è sempre presente e guida il gruppo in maniera impeccabile. Abbiamo avuto, inoltre, la fortuna di incontrare lo squalo balena. Avventura unica grazie ai ragazzi del dive center che ci hanno fatto vivere un'esperienza indimenticabile. Grazie Amaya, Grazie Chanaka
First of all would like to thank everyone at Amaya kuda rah resort for such a pleasurable stay from check in all through to check out! The staff are delightful and cheery, and the resort is breath taking. The restaurant and pool bar are amazing, and the staff are wonderful help. A special thank you to Bayzid for such special decorations in the room that are magnificent! As well as Rayan and his team at the dive center for an awesome time snorkeling and water sports activities! Lovely team all in, and thanks again for a lovely stay.
➕Ce que nous avons aimé , c’est la chambre et la piscine privé dans la salle de bain , la grandeur du lit .
➕L’équipe Sympa du diving center, le capitaine du bateau.
➕le repas surprise, à l’heure du dîner. Avec des produits de la mer ; très bon.
➖Ce qui ne nous a pas plu du tout , c’est la vaporisation à la même heure , de l’insecticide, très toxique qui se dépose dans les lieux publiques, le bar et la piscine .... de plus c’est hyper toxique, il y a la faune environnante, les libellules les petites poules sauvage et leurs poussins, les hérons et autres oiseaux qui subissent ces gaz et nous les humains . Et enfin dans l’eau, des morceaux de grillages et bétons d’une ancienne construction peu être gisent au abord d’amya., des canettes aussi

Excellent island style customer service. The island exceeded our expectations, it felt like our very own private island.
Very nice. Food was delicious, diving was fantastic and room was very good. The connection between Male airport and this resort was a bit bad but I think it worth.
That the Maldives is fantastic goes without saying but this Place is fantastic. The staff is amazing and food fantastic. Even if snorkeling The house reef gives enough entertainment with turtles, reef Sharks the diving centre gives an extra oppotrunity to sealife experience.
