I liked the hotel!!! Everything worked in the room, they were cleaned in different ways, tips did not particularly affect the quality. The food is amazing, there are no complaints at all. Seafood (crabs, shrimps, squid, fish), meat , and salads are all OK. Fruits didn't seem enough (rambutan, langan, passion fruit, papaya, pineapple, melon, watermelon, and something small), desserts are weak. But overall, everything is fine! And every (! 🤣) once after a la carte we came to our 5th. Good champagne, wine, cocktails, everything is very decent. Almost every evening we went for a walk at 4 a.m., but at 5 p.m. it was more respectable and there was a bar, and the music seemed to be better. The disadvantage in 5ke is the lack of a good reef, which was followed by 4ke. More. Crows lived near the villa. How are they there?! The staff is chasing them, but these monsters were annoying with their cawing. Sand is always applied to the room on the 1st floor. I don't know what to do about it. There is high humidity in the room without air conditioning. I'll tell you- The coast of the river is shallow, especially when the tide is out. Swimming is not very good. A turtle, quite large, hung out at our house for a long time, small sharks and a few fish swam. But we went to 4ku for the main snorkeling. In principle, it didn't bother. And all the activities are on the 4th floor - free saps and paid jet skis and skis. Spa and all kinds of yoga and exercises are also on the territory of the 4ki.
In general, if you go here again, you would choose 5 again. It is more comfortable than hanging out on the 4th floor, especially since those who live in the 5th floor enjoy all the benefits of the 4th floor to the fullest, unlike those who live on the island in the 4th floor, who are not allowed access to the island of the 5th floor. There were also questions about the organization of departure by seaplane. We just forgot about our neighbors, it's good that the seaplane left later, so we managed to dive in. But I'm unlikely to choose a seaplane again, the time difference with a boat + flight by internal lines is minimal. But you pay an additional $ 160 per person, and you get a cramped airplane with a terrible smell of gasoline, stuffy cabin and a fence on the way from other islands of other passengers. Not much fun. I will say for sure, if there is an opportunity to choose this hotel, I will definitely recommend it. It's beautiful there!

The service at this hotel is excellent! The room is cleaned every day and during the day there was a man on duty on our floor, who cleaned the sand that fell off the shoes after everyone passing by. The beach is magnificent, I attach a photo. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The cuisine is quite varied and delicious, and alcohol and juices are always poured at the bar. The plus of the fives is that you can move to the four when it gets boring, and there you can always find something to do. Discos and various events take place in the evenings. The reef is beautiful with a diverse number of wildlife. We managed to see: a turtle, a baby shark, a stingray and various fish. I recommend taking a snorkeling mask with you right away. In our opinion, it is still more comfortable in the top five than in the top four on the neighboring island it is quieter and there are fewer people. All that was missing was a shower when leaving the beach to wash your feet and not drag everything to the room. Otherwise, everything is fine, I recommend you to visit 100%! We were in the Maldives for the first time.

This place is highly discouraged. Great views, very clean, that's it. The food is regrettable. The quality of food and drinks negates everything: it's amazing how chefs manage to cook poorly everything except Indian food. The only restaurant worth visiting -
Krystal. The rest is very bad and not tasty, the coffee is disgusting everywhere.
The staff is helpful, clean, tidy, soapy, try their best. There is a lot of alcohol.
