Sandies Bathala

It was an amazing experience of living on such a small island, but they will provide everything you need. The food is just wonderful, stuff is friendly and helpful, atmosphere is nice and very Italian oriented. Reccomend for those who loves privacy and very calm vacations in beautiful place! Would add TV into the rooms for the days with bad weather.

It’s not the first time of staying there and we are absolutely satisfied! Great staff, an awesome service and picturesque views!

It was a magnificent experience. The place is paradise on Earth. Amazing flora and fauna. The water Villa is worth the price to have direct access to the sea and the most beautiful sky to admire with incredible shooting stars. Waiters and the people who work there are very kind and friendly. The entertainment is wonderful with a variety of stunning activities that bring groups together. I also did a fitness activity with drum sticks that I haven’t even heard about before. A big compliment to the amazing stuff: to Joara, Valeria, Gabriele and Alessia. They are all wonderful beings with big hearts and a big sense of humor. We had the honor to enjoy Valeria’s beautiful voice, too. A big compliment also to the marine biologists to Nicole, Alice and Gabriele. We learnt very curious and interesting things about sharks and the fauna of the Maldives that we will remember forever. Night snorkeling is so much worth doing, seeing animals with torches and enjoying the bioluminescent dance of the planktons is a Wow. The trip to find mantas is an unforgettable experience. Also the group snorkelings were great experiences, that we had access to two times/day. The island is quiet enough of you seek tranquility and has enough entertainment if you seek group activities, so it covers both at the same time. We are so filled with joy and gratitude. Thank You for everything!

Accommodation in houses on the water is great! Ahmed makes sure twice a day that everything is tidy and clean, stocked with water, coffee and tea. Really incredibly friendly staff makes sure that all wishes are fulfilled. The island is not big, but it is very clean and ecologically aware. The food is varied, there is something good for everyone. Amjad took care of us, we were served like a king and queen! The whole island breathes like one very well-coordinated team, where everyone knows exactly what they have to do, but at the same time so unobtrusive and friendly. We really enjoyed snorkeling in the company of sharks, manta rays, not to mention colorful fish. A one-time vacation! We highly recommend! Boris and Andreja

Our stay at the Hotel Bathala Resort Maldives was an unforgettable experience. First and foremost, the food was amazing. There was a wide variety of dishes every day, and we enjoyed special dinners featuring Maldivian, Asian, Italian, and international cuisines. The fresh pasta options, such as tagliatelle, gnocchi, and tortellini, were delightful, served with delicious sauces. The water sports center was staffed by knowledgeable biologists who made our excursions at 11 am and 4 pm both educational and fascinating. These trips were free and offered detailed explanations about the diverse marine life. A big thank you to Nicole, Gabriele, Alice, Sofia, and Lapo for making these experiences so memorable. We stayed in a beach villa, which I believe is the best option at the resort. It allowed us to enjoy the beach and nature while offering plenty of privacy. The room itself was minimalistic yet comfortable, with a stunning outdoor Maldivian bathroom. However, the cleaning service could be improved. Despite being done twice a day, the same broom was used for both the porch and the interior, leaving the floor sandy. The animation team was fantastic. Francorosso’s team was excellent, providing entertainment that was engaging yet unobtrusive. Special thanks to Valeria and Johara for their wonderful work. Francorosso also has on-site assistance, and Alessia was super helpful whenever needed. Overall, our experience at Hotel Bathala Resort Maldives was wonderful, with great food, activities, and accommodation. A few minor improvements could make it even better.

We have spent a fantastic week in the Bathala Sandies resort at the Maldives. The unique atmosphere of this island allowed us to rest and regenerate but also to have great fun with the team and other guests. We had also out diamond wedding ceremony and Bathala team made it possible for us to realize our biggest dream. Service, food quality and animation have been all above our expectations. I strongly recommend this pretty island. Keep going Bathala Team!
