Find Hotel with a Concierge in South Male Atoll

"We spent a week here on our Anniversary trip and have nothing but high praises to give this resort. They meet you at the airport and whisk you away immediately to the private lounge which is air conditioned along with cold drinks, coffee, tea, and water. Once at the lounge our wait for speed boat transfer was very quick and taken care of by the resort completely. The boat ride was about 45 mins, again, refreshments were offered and away we went to paradise. Upon arrival to the resort a warm Maldivian welcome was provided, and we met our personal butler, Forty on the Jetty. Once to reception, a glass of champagne along with a foot and ankle rub was provided. We traveled from US so after 48 hours of flying and traveling these were perfect and hit the spot. We arrived early but luck would be on our side and a villa would be available. We were taken by buggy, given a tour of the island to begin before being taken to our over water villa with pool and absolutely amazed at the views, the amenities, the comfort, everything was perfect. The room has 2 controllable AC units, windows from wall to wall, mini bar, a wine cooler also restocked daily with up to 4 wines. The resort has multiple options for dining, the main being The Palms, it’s the center piece to the dining experience. Buffet options from around the world. 3 other specialty restaurants were available and booked through the butler. Big shout out to Forty, Bikesh, Danielle for providing stellar service through out our trip!"

"The loud noise from the hotel next door was very annoying and continued until 11:00 at Saturday night. Otherwise everything was perfect especially the friendliness of the staff. Everyone was helpful and courteous, "

"everything was amazing from day one. However, they could have done a better job on the food. food was ok but not excellent. other than that. staff and everything else was amazing. definitely will come back "

"Our stay at Velassaru was amazing. We spent 12 days on the island, and did not want to leave... The level of service and dedication of the staff are beyond the words. The hotel is ideal for family or romantic getaway. The island is very small and that makes it really quiet and peaceful. You can see Male as it is really close by, but on the other hand you don't need to spent extra hours for getting to the island. Highly recommend this hotel to all lovers of the tranquil holidays."

"We had an excellent stay. The resort is adult only and quiet. Food was outstanding and the staff was incredible. Guests have access to Dighu resort which is larger and offers more variety. I would highly recommend the hotel."

"We have a lovely stay at the Adaaran. It’s a little paradise. Food is excellent. Cocktails are great. The room are lovely and so is the private pool. The surrounding waters are pristine and we saw multiple sea turtles while snorkeling around our villa which was definitely the highlight of our trip. The staff provided us a lovely cake and bottle of bubbly to celebrate our honeymoon. Another amazing benefit is the resort is only a 15 minute speedboat from the airport. This allowed us to avoid waiting around for a seaplane or transfers which added immensely to our trip. Highly recommend. "

"Great hotel, from the warm welcome to last farewell everything was smooth and highly enjoyable. We loved the fact the whole island is set in lush greenery and i feels very private despite full occupancy. Staff is extremely friendly and helpfull. We stayed on half board basis and there was always something to choose from. I am sure there are better resorts for snorkeling but if you you are patient you find some good marine life as well (we did snorkel on the surf beach behind the reception) which we later discovered we were not supposed to do but it was the best. One thing I’d consider a downside is the restrictions that may feel ovewhelming, like the kids club that only allows playstation for kids only between noon and 2pm, swimming pool opened only till 6pm and the use or only certain beaches for snorkeling."

"The resort was amazing and the staff was very friendly!"

"Stayed here from Nov 24-29. This place is clean and the room was spacious. I like that our room is facing the sea With balcony. All the staffs are very polite and helpful. Excellent place to stay in Maafushi. "
