Stunning resort with all amenities the staff cares about you all times , Excellent experience
Verified review

8/10 Very good

Had room 524 amazing views for sunrise and ocean views 100% recommend, beware it’s at the end of the jetty decently long walk. Rooms are the only place for A/C which in the heat of the day, still can get really hot in rooms. Spa was amazing. Staff was very friendly hospitality is a 5 star. Restaurants are nothing to write home about, fancy type food that’s ok at best. It’s a very romantic place for you and your partner but very hot and humid no restaurants or bars have air conditioning so dressing up and putting makeup on is a mistake since you’ll just be sweating the whole time. Make sure to bring plenty of sunscreen buying it there a regular bottle was $60 bucks!

The property was beautiful overall. There was some remodeling at the nearest restaurant that required me to do a bit of walking from my resort area. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They had a special way of welcoming you back if you were a returning guest. Overall, 9/10.

A truly lovely resort, but it has a number of shortcomings. I had a villa with pool and it was spectacular! Truly lovely. Took 2 days to get used to the outdoor bathroom, but it's safe. Things to note: You cannot order an alcoholic beverage for in-villa dining (except beer), but you can order a bottle @ ~3x the cost. (e.g. gin $135-$160 a bottle; JD $175; grey goose $210!). Get duty-free before you get to the island, if you can. There is no beach service except at the bar pools. My villa was right on the beach with a private pool, but I had to go to one of the bars. Kinda defeated the purpose, for me. In-villa dining is kinda bad (improperly seared tuna; bitter lettuce; horrible scrimpy chicken sandwich), and if they are busy with breakfast, 5 or 6 calls will still not guarantee they answer. Please check departure time against number of nights charged. I had a departure at 1:45 am on Friday, thus was at the airport at 8 pm on Thursday (late night boats not available, and that's the only way to the island). Nonetheless, because my flight was after midnight, they charged me for 6 nights instead of 5. Not sure if that was their fault or Expedia. Either way, it sucked. Most of the staff are friendly and efficient, though smiles are hard to come by. (It may be a cultural thing.) Clovie at check-in was OK but not warm and welcoming. My housekeeper, Abdullah, was FABULOUS!! Kinda shy, but always pleasant and helpful.

Everything was beyond beautiful, better than I ever could have imagined. Every staff member was amazing and very kind and helpful. The property was very clean and everything went smoothly especially with the boat transfer. Could have been a better place to spend our honeymoon.

The water villa experience was ultimate. However, this is not value for money spent for a single day visit and don't get time to enjoy the lavish morning breakfast the next day as you have early morning boat transfer.

We were there to celebrate our 5th anniversary and had a wonderful holiday. It was a very calm and quiet place for a getaway. We stayed in one of the Grand Water Villas with private pool. They decorated our room on our anniversary day, gave us a beautiful cake, a bottle of red wine and a bucket of fresh fruits and organised a lovely candle light dinner for us which was a nice gesture. Housekeeping was top notch. All the hospitality staff had a welcoming smile on their face. We enjoyed free Kayaking, watching marine lives and ofcourse the their mouthwatering multi cuisine buffet foods. Highly recommended for anyone whoever wants a memorable holiday!!

My husband and I traveled here for our honeymoon and we had the most amazing time of our lives. The island is absolutely breathtaking and the staff goes above and beyond to cater to all your needs. Our host, CJ was absolutely phenomenal. He organized so many incredible things for us and was always such a pleasure to speak with. I would recommend this property to anyone wanting to visit the Maldives. I spend WEEKS researching the best property and I can assure you NOTHING beats this property. It has props and everything needed for perfect photo shoots and is incredibly romantic. They also have things for kids to do as well! Overall it’s just amazing.

The staff was very friendly, whether it was room service, restaurants or reception. Very friendly. I have to say that once we were in are room, it was very confusing on how to book activites or reservations for meals. The excursion that we took was for snorkeling and it was literally a 20 minute boat ride, 25 minutes of snorkeling and 20 min ride back. That was disappointing. All inclusive should include more that 25 minute snorkle excursion. Food wasn't what i thought it would. Should be more seafood.

My wife and I stayed at 3 different properties in the Maldives. Sun Siyam Olhuveli's grand water villa was definitely the most modern and the deck was the most spacious. It is an expansive property made up of 3 islands which may not be to everyone's liking. They have golf carts going from early in the morning to late at night so it is not a problem. We stayed on Dream Island. If we went back we would stay on the adult only True Blue Romance Island. You can still walk from Dream to True Blue in less than 10 minutes and use the adult only pool which we did daily. The staff is friendly. Big shout out to the waiter at the pool Pradeep. He made our stay at Olhuveli one to remember.

Do not spend your money for it

I paid for full board but the charge me on water, I have stung many many times of lots of bugs all over my body, main island was closed which is much nice then that is open now, the food quality was bad no variety of foods, they clean rooms only every 2 days, rooms very close to the bar which is so noisy we can’t sleep till 12 am they stop music, buggy was scheduled you can’t request for it & you have to wait 30 minutes & if you are lucky you cloud find a free space, staff are not kind enough you will not never hear good morning of good evening from them, the beach smells so bad we can’t go close to it.

First I want to say the staff is very rude. We went for our honeymoon and it was almost ruined. Shuttles will not stop for you. Even when it’s pitch black at night they expect you to walk around the huge resort site. They are constantly saying no we do go to this area when it’s on the same resort. My husband wanted to jet ski and was given a hard time. We stayed in a over water villa and the beds were so hard. I would wake up literally in aching pains. Breakfast staff is great in sunset bar but other places where buffet will not restock the buffet and if you ask for something the answer is no. The speedboat ride was very scary. However, the property is clean. Can drinks are $6.00 in the room. Food is poor we could only eat breakfast and sometimes the pizza bar. The resort is beautiful we just made the best out of it. Also, we did enjoy our honeymoon dinner provided at island pizza.

Unsafe & Rude staff - Avoid or waste your money

Even though on arrival you are asked for allergies, I was provided with a drink which contains cranberries. I was told by a staff member this drink was called a Lemon under the beach and had no cranberries and only on further interrogation it was clear it was in fact a Cranberry Fizz. Further still our dining experiences only got worse, beef that was chewy and inedible, fries with hair in them and incorrect orders with food not provided as requested. Unfortunately being stuck on an island only leaves you with the option to continue eating at their establishments. Each time we raised this to the staff they did not do much to fix anything and assured us everything would be ok. Until our encounter with front desk manager, who after many unhelpful conversations then decided to shout and scream and hurl abuse at us.
