I loved everything about Varu. It’s a great hotel with all inclusive amenities and very organized and clean. You feel welcomed since they Pick you up from the airport in the boat and received you in the hotel with the staff receiving you in the docking place. There is nothing I didn’t like about this hotel. Food is excellent, loved the night couple singing in the lounge at night and the sunsets are magical at Varu. Would definitely recommend to anyone going to Maldives.
