Anantara Kihavah Maldives Villas

Отдыхали с мужем в этом отеле в ноябре 2024 года. Есть с чем сравнить - joali, one & only. Сразу отмечу - персонал очень старается, все очень чутко, сервис именно так, как вам хочется. В период поездки я была беременна, отель сразу учел это, батлер Zaheen был внимателен, при этом ненавязчив. Ему особенная благодарность, он сделал upgrade нашей виллы до семейной. Муж долго сравнивал этот отель с предыдущими - к концу поездки понял, что придраться просто не к чему. Итак, об отеле - это азиатская сеть luxury отелей. Сам остров можно обойти за 20 минут быстрым шагом, не спеша - 40 минут. Очень зеленый, периодично обрабатывают от комаров, так что из живности - птицы и летучие лисы. Риф самый лучший! Вышел из номера - и уже под водой целый океанариум. Поглубже - манты, скаты, акулы, черепахи. Виллы просторные, все есть, дважды уборка номера, все пополняется без проблем. Еда: на завтраках все есть, каждый день тематические, по видам кухонь. Несколько ресторанов, мы любили итальянский. Очень достойный, тк в этой сетке отелей работают и мишленовские повара. Были на ужине с мишленовским поваром - да, всё так как должно быть. Есть подводный ресторан Икра - там во все блюда добавляют черную икру, не жалея, с горкой) очень атмосферно). Так же есть открытый бар- лаунж-зона. Очень красивая, современная. Главная гордость отеля - планетарий. К сожалению, мы туда не попали, тк на Мальдивах явно изменился климат, второй год подряд в конце ноября еще сезон муссонов, всё прекрасно, но за 2 недели было 4 солнечных дня. Хотя по стоимости отеля- уже высокий сезон. В центре острова - activities. Там есть и небольшой спортзал, и зона йоги, бокса, теннисный корт, и семейные развлечения - бадминтон, настольный теннис. И тд. Спа - считается одним из лучших. Это точно. При оплате услуг учтите, что чаевые они себе вписывают автоматически) Точно рекомендую этот отель! Сами еще вернемся)

太棒了！！

It is pricey but the resort management and staffs ensure every cent is worthwhile for you. Reservation: they list out activities and after you chosen, they plan and schedule for you. They even go all out to plan non-listed activities for you. Like Futsal with the staffs. Welcome party: all the Chiefs were there to welcome us. Host : upon arrival, your host will present the schedule for you and make suggestions for you on the planned activities. Food: Chef ensure that every little dish comes out of the kitchen has highest quality. He was there for every single dining of our stay (we were there for 6 days) to check on diners satisfactions. Quality of ingredients and authenticity of the cooking is everything. Activities: Host ensure that you get the "best seats" even in this high Dec month. Resort Manager goes all out to make exception and justification for you even for the impossible, like catching no fish on the Big Game fishing trip ha ha ha. House Keeping : very accommodating and no questions asked. Overall: though this was our longest stay among our four trips to Maldives, this one is the most fulfilling. Never a dull time. Most expensive stay so far, but surely worth it.

My wife and I stayed here for a couple days after coming here from a different resort. Transfer team both to the resort and after was fantastic (especially the assistance we got heading back, getting through the Male airport, security etc. top notch in a hectic airport. Our room was large, clean with a comfortable bed, and an amazing huge outdoor bathroom. I did note that the rooms could benefit from some tech updates. Turning lights on and off was a struggle sometimes. Staff were incredibly kind and attentive. Our villa host Zidanh was great (bringing me a cell phone cord when mine stopped working), and arranging an early morning breakfast in our villa due to an early flight out, causing us to miss our buffet breakfast. Aboo at plates was also very attentive and kind. We had a beach villa, which was large and very private. Like having a beach house. The A/C struggled at some points, owing to the outdoor bathroom doors having some gaps. A warning - this is a lush natural island with wildlife, so be prepared for animal noises early in the AM. If this is an issue I’d suggest an over water villa. We did spend a lot of time in our plunge pool which was clean and warm. Food was very good at all places we ate. Fire and spice both stood out. As others pointed out, water was insanely expensive. This was a let down considering the prices paid, and the fact that other places don’t charge for water. We had lunch at the underwater restaurant, which experience was amazing. I feel the food prices reflected the uniqueness and ambience, and while the food was good, I don’t know if it was as good as the price suggested. Great staff there thiugh. We used the spa as well which was a great experience. Snorkelling was amazing, swimming with a turtle and other sea life. The one downside to this whole trip was the dive centre. The staff there were rude and dismissive. We had earlier been told before we checked in the manta excursion was done for the season. On day 1, we were also told that due to weather there would not be any excursions. On day 2 when we collected our snorkelling gear we found out that the manta excursion was currently happening and that other excursions were also about to just leave. These are things we desperately wanted to do, and we didn’t feel valued by the staff there. We got more snorkeling advice from Maurice the manager than anyone at the centre. They were truly a disappointment. A beautiful place in a beautiful location.

I'm sure that Anantara Kihavah is the best hotel in the Maldives! Truly the most incredible experience my family have ever had in our life. We’ve never been treated so well and the staff made our experience an incredible once in a lifetime dream vacation. Our villa host Ismail was incredibly kind and attentive! The island is truly heaven on earth. It's a calm and private place to be at!
