10/10 Exceptional! (3 reviews)
Absolutely fantastic stay- we were met at Male airport and looked after to our flight to Ifuru Island which is outstanding. All the staff looked after us with extreme courtesy and were extremely welcoming. Everywhere was very clean and cared for and the food very variable and to a high standard. Snorkelling was amazing we saw fish/stingrays/reef sharks/turtles/ resident heron. On our return we were met again at Male airport and looked after and helped to check in for our flight home. Cannot recommend this Island strongly enough ! ALL the staff were very dedicated and very hard working and so sorry can’t remember everyone’s names but very much felt a warm/friendly/family atmosphere. Shout out to: Monika, Tharaka, Sara, Diva, Donni, manager of waterfront(sorry don’t know name), Shiyaau, Basse, Pradeeb, Shiva, Raazan, Juli, Ahmed, Fraish (sorry if spelt wrong - captain of Komomo) thank you to everyone for a very special holiday

This resort is incredible. The water is crystal clear, the marine life is everywhere, and the staff are super friendly and go out of their way to make your stay better. Lots of activities available and enough places to just "be" that it never, ever feels crowded.

Luxurious with great value , Private and Exclusive Our stay at Furaveri was an amazing experience from beginning to end. The island is beautiful, peaceful, and feels wonderfully private and exclusive, making it the perfect place to relax and unwind. A special thank you to Kas, who welcomed us warmly as soon as we stepped off the seaplane. His friendly attitude and professionalism made us feel at home immediately and set the tone for a fantastic stay. The villas were spacious, comfortable, and well maintained, providing everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. The island itself is stunning, with pristine beaches, crystal-clear water, and plenty of places to enjoy the natural beauty. There was also a great range of exciting and interesting activities to choose from, ranging from high octane watersports to kayaking and leisurely snorkeling tours with local marine life, ensuring there was always something enjoyable to do, whether you wanted adventure or simply to experience the incredible marine environment. Considering the exceptional quality of the accommodation, service, facilities, and experiences on offer, we felt Furaveri offered excellent value for money compared with many other Maldives resorts. Thank you to Kas and the entire Furaveri team for making our vacation such a memorable experience. We would happily recommend Furaveri to anyone looking for a beautiful, relaxing, and welcoming resort in the Maldives, and we hope to return in the future.
