JA Manafaru, Maldives

Amazing resort! All the staff are so nice and helpful and the food was so good, highly recommended if you are looking for a quiet, relaxing and peace getaway

一家人首次來到馬爾代夫就能有幸認識JA MANAFARU，感覺非常幸運，因為這裡有着最美的海景，最温馨周到的服務，最原生態的環境，最可口的美食。首先，從上島到離島，都能感受到賓至如歸的幸福感，全島的工作人員都非常專業，非常用心地在服務，也非常注重細節體現（經理帶着全體員工在碼頭接機以及送行），這裏重點要感謝管家LINDA無微不至的照顧以及服務生NIZAM的熱情洋溢的服務，讓我及我的家人深刻地感受到了愛的存在。其次，這裏的海景一流，沒有任何的污染，這也源自於這邊的人們對於環境的保護，所有的設施及用品均為原生態及有機產品，海灘也有專門的環保人員管理。島上植被繁茂，基本上80%以上的地方均被綠化覆蓋，讓人感覺不到赤道的炎熱。浮潛及海上運動項目也非常多，體驗感非常好。這裏每天還提供豐富多彩的體驗互動活動，包括小童樂園，都有着非常不錯的經歷。再者，島上的6個餐廳提供了非常豐富可口的食物，乾淨衞生，而且蔬菜都是有機的，大都來自於島上自給自足的培育。順便要提一句，島上餐廳每天都會免費給小朋友提供冰淇淋，非常貼心。最後，再次感謝酒店經理及管家LINDA的精心安排的各種入住體驗，我們非常期待與你們所有人在JA MANAFARU的下一次的相遇！

服務和海景都一流，設施和海資源二流，一次很好的休假。尤其要表揚中國成都姑娘LINDA，她熱情周到，讓我們得到了賓至如歸的感受。

Nous avons été désagréablement surpris d’apprendre 24h avant notre arrivée à l’hôtel que le transfert de Male international airport pour rejoindre Manafaru n’était pas inclus dans le prix. Nous avons du sortir 1500$ pour 2 adultes et un enfant pour rejoindre l’hôtel. Pas de fleurs à notre arrivée pour la st Valentin malgré ma demande lors de la réservation. Pas de service pour garder notre enfant de 4 ans et faire des activités. C’est est vraiment décevant pour un hôtel 5 étoiles même si l’endroit est magnifique.

This island are so nice with bright blue sea and all the things are great！ All guys are passion and patient for my mon,especially our housekeeper Linda! Due to my mother can't say English,Linda is very nice and full of passion to treat us.She booked every restaurant for us and pick up us go to everywhere about the resort.A unforgettable trip for us !

**Honeymoon Trip - JA Manafaru, Maldives** 1. **Transportation** JA Manafaru is indeed quite far from Malé, requiring a 75-minute seaplane ride. Upon arrival, our flight was delayed by two hours due to last-minute adjustments made by the hotel. To make up for the inconvenience, the hotel provided in-room dining service, which was a thoughtful gesture. Our return trip was a combination of speedboat and domestic flight. Thankfully, the weather was perfect, with calm seas, making the speedboat experience smooth and enjoyable. 2. **Staff Service** Special thanks to our Chinese-speaking butler, Linda. Since my parents don’t speak English, we had requested a Mandarin-speaking butler in advance. Linda’s service was incredibly attentive, always making sure we were comfortable and assisting with everything from dining transportation to special requests. When my husband got sunburned, Linda promptly brought him after-sun lotion. By the fifth day, my father was missing his usual corn porridge from home, so Linda kindly arranged for the chef to prepare it. Her attention to detail was remarkable, and the other staff members were all very warm and friendly as well. 3. **Dining Experience** This place truly lives up to its reputation as a “foodie island” with a wide range of dining options, including Asian Night, teppanyaki, ocean grill, and an Italian restaurant. On our final night, we dined at the Italian restaurant, coincidentally on Maldives Night. While we’re not particularly fans of curry, the head chef thoughtfully brought out several Maldivian specialties for us to try, adding a special touch to the evening. 4. **Snorkeling Experience** There weren’t many fish directly in the waters near our room, but we were lucky to spot a nurse shark just below our room (we were in room 521—whether by chance or special arrangement, we’re not sure!). The best snorkeling spot was near the jetty, where we saw a variety of colorful fish and even manta rays. At night, quite a few nurse sharks also swam by, creating an exciting nighttime view with just a flashlight. This was my first travel journal, and we are so grateful for the attentive service from the JA team, which made for a relaxing and perfect honeymoon. We’ll definitely be back! ❤️
