Fantastic place, very comfortable accomodation with private pool. Staff always very friendly and nice.

We had the sunset water villa with a pool and it was fantastic, also being able to use both islands facilities was great.

Outstanding experience! Kondey island is a beautiful, almost untouched place. We were looking for a peaceful, quiet escape - and we found it. It takes an extra domestic flight to get to the island, but it’s 100% worth it. Villas are recently built, in a great condition and very comfortable. Bed is huge and showers are great. There is a pool, dining area. There is a bikini beach 10 mins from villas. It’s clean and usually empty. Kondey is also a great option for snorkeling. Sunsets are just incredible. Ahmed was the best host! We took care of us, always being nice, helpful and we felt like at home. He is a nice person, and he made our stay really special. He also knows everything about the island, atoll and Maldives. Dolphin cruise went great, we saw hundreds of dolphins. Chef and food were great, we loved it! Everyday fresh, tasty meals. Mostly local but and regional. You won’t get bored! Thank you!

The guesthouse is run by wonderful locals who strive to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. They are not just regular stuff, but family and friends in a tight knit community, who genuinely care about the service they provide. I do not usually write reviews, but in this case I made an exception as the whole experience was so amazing that I wanted to make sure that the guesthouse and the lovely people who run it get the recognition they deserve. Throughout my stay, I was in constant communication with the owner via WhatsApp, if I needed more sunscreen, wanted to have an early dinner, or arrange a snorkel trip and be taken out on a boat, they immediately answered and invariably made everything possible. Location: The guesthouse is located on a small island of 200 inhabitants, with untouched nature, an amazing coral reef perfect for snorkeling, and a tight-knit community of locals living their daily lives. The island is completely safe and the locals are welcoming and curious about foreigners. At one time, on my way back from the beach, I was invited into the house of a handful of locals who offered me some traditional food and had an interesting discussion with me about their customs and way of life. The property The property was built very recently by the owner, and was very much up to the European standards, super clean and very cozy. All rooms are equipped with air conditioning and an electric kettle with a selection of coffees and teas that you can make in your room. All meals are served in a dining area just outside of the house, where you can look at the surrounding nature while eating. Snorkel gear and beach towels are also provided free of charge. The beach The beach is just a few hundred meters from the property, full of coconut trees under which you can lay, or just leave your belongings there while snorkeling. Most of the time I was the only one at the beach, or else only saw 2-3 other people a few hundred meters away from me.

Everything except of the location Everything else is so great! Our butler was very attentive girl :)

extremely friendly staff it felt like home always smiling very hard working felt amazing the moment we entered the hotel

It was a perfect family vacation thanks to the lovely staff, services, facilities and the island. We appreciated the kindness the Ayada staff showed especially towards our little child. Always gentle and helpful with a smile in their face and no matter if butler, waiter, director, kitchen chef, masseur, transportation staff. The service was always impeccable with regards to our necessities: getting organized a microwave to heat up our child's food, getting food to our room, cleaning up the room, getting some dessert to our room. Our Butler Zak was available 24/7 and very helpful for everything we needed. We even received an upgrade for our stay with a swimming pool and direct access to the beach. When asking why, they said: "Because we love you!" Food quality and variety was good as well as the SPA massage we received. The offering of sport variety was amazing from football to volleyball to tennis and kayak. We especially enjoyed our daily bike tours on the island and the infinite swimming pool with beach view at Zero Degree. The island and its nature had a lot to offer: wonderfull beach, crystal water, baby sharks, crabs, bats. An unforgettable experience we will always keep it in our heart and will regress one day for sure.

Everything, last days there me and my wife were thinking about this place and we agreed that this hotel and its stuff - just amazing! We’ve spend the week and had NO negative experience at all. It’s our second time on Maldives, and we travel a lot around the world, and stayed in many hotels (from cheap to most expensive) - but rarely we can give someone 10 out of 10, but this one deserve it. The stuff is very friendly and entertaining, making your stay even better.

In my opinion, this is the best place on earth to relax and disconnect from the craziness of everyday life. This is also the only resort in the Maldives that I have no hesitation returning to. The staff, the food and the facilities are fabulous, but the best thing about this place is the house reef with its beautiful marine life. Nothing beats swimming with and amongst the beautiful fish and countless other sea creatures. You can't experience that in places offering just a blue lagoon. The water is crystal clear when the weather is good, the sand is soft, and you are not stepping - and shouldn't anyway - on any corals. You have to swim a bit to get to them. The staff at the restaurant are lovely and very happy to accommodate any special requests guests might have, but quite frankly, I doubt they have to do it often as the variety of dishes offered is plentiful and very well prepared. I love staying at this resort and will be heading there again in a few days' time. I can hardly wait! I highly recommend this place to anyone wishing to visit the Maldives and have the best experience possible.
