Spiaggia dell'Isola di Fonimagoodhoo

An excellent option for a first-time visit to the Maldives. The service staff, location, and food were outstanding. Communication with the dive shop can be challenging at times due to limited WiFi, but we thoroughly enjoyed the complimentary excursions we participated in.

We visited Reethi Beach Resort in December 2023 for our honeymoon, staying for a total of 9 nights in the water villas. The weather during our stay was a mix of clear, sunny days and cloudy, breezy ones, with rain typically occurring overnight and clearing up during the day. The rooms are traditionally styled, very spacious, and feature large bathrooms and decks perfect for sun lounging with direct access to the sea. The access to the water villas is spectacular, offering a complete panoramic view of the horizon across the water and nearby islands. The beds are big and comfortable, and you have the option of using either air conditioning or a ceiling fan to stay cool. We appreciated the ceiling fan as we’re not very keen on AC, though it is available for those who prefer it. The rooms are serviced daily and kept clean using environmentally friendly procedures. We opted for the standard all-inclusive package, which includes breakfast, lunch, an afternoon snack, and dinner at the Main Restaurant, along with a good selection of drinks and alcoholic beverages from any of the bars on the island. We highly recommend this option as it offers an abundant choice of food and drinks. The Main Restaurant changes its menu daily, especially at dinner, featuring themed cuisines with a wide variety of choices and fresh produce, often from their own garden on the island. The team at the Main Restaurant ensured we always had a great experience and provided everything we could ask for. Special thanks to Majid, Amjad, and Rubel, among others, for their excellent service. We also had good chats with Ixoo and Madushan in the bars, where all the staff were friendly and forthcoming. The all-inclusive package also included two free trips each week: a sunset cruise and a visit to two nearby local islands to experience the local lifestyle. Additionally, a trial scuba diving introduction was included. As we were on our honeymoon, we were welcomed with a nice display in our room featuring fresh fruit. We also enjoyed a complimentary romantic dinner at Saima Garden, the high-end cuisine restaurant on the island, which was candlelit, on the beach, and featured a beautiful flower arrangement on the table. We also tried the Moodhu Bar and Restaurant on our arrival day, receiving a free late lunch due to our mid-afternoon arrival. The location of the Moodhu Bar is stunning, with a wooden deck walkway into the sea. The food at both Saima Garden and Moodhu Bar was of amazing quality. Among the many extra activities

We spent a few days at Reethi Beach, including the Christmas holiday, and had a delightful experience that fully met our expectations. We stayed in the Sunset Deluxe Beach villas. While the interiors are basic and the furniture somewhat outdated, a few upgrades like a coffee machine with capsules, better toiletries, in-room WiFi, and stocked juices in the fridge could significantly enhance the experience. However, the villas are beautifully situated on the beach, featuring individual chairs and umbrellas nestled among lush palm trees with a view of the sea. The reefs are easily accessible from various points during high tide and through two marked corridors with life rings during low tide. The reef itself is stunning, teeming with colorful fish of all sizes, as well as special sightings of sharks, rays, and turtles. We opted for the standard all-inclusive package, which covered breakfast, lunch, and dinner at the Main Restaurant, along with a good selection of drinks, coffees, and alcoholic beverages available at any bar on the island. This was more than sufficient for our needs. We greatly appreciated the friendly and supportive service provided by the staff in the Main Restaurant and all the bars. We celebrated Christmas Eve on the island, and the staff went above and beyond to create a festive atmosphere throughout, including a fantastic dinner buffet with many live cooking stations and a variety of sweets. Overall, our stay was amazing, thanks to the wonderful staff, the island's natural beauty, and the abundant marine life. We will definitely recommend Reethi Beach to our friends back home!

My garden villa was fantastic, though a few updates here and there would make it perfect. I loved the outdoor shower. The staff were all helpful and courteous. The food in the main restaurant was excellent, especially for a non-meat eater like me. The reef is great for snorkeling, and you get to see sharks up close. I missed the chance to swim with whale sharks due to some communication issues, but that just means I'll have to return!

The rooms may not be luxurious, but they are very comfortable and clean. From the water villas, you can see sharks. The trips to Hanifaru Bay to see mantas and whale sharks are amazing. The buffet spread is great, although it could be better for vegans. The service from all the staff is fantastic. You will take a seaplane from Male to get there.
