Everything is fine. Upon arrival in Male, they meet and accompany you to the hotel (bus - 5 minutes, waiting for a hydroplane in the lounge with food and free massage - ~ 2 hours, hydroplane - 40 minutes, boat - 5 minutes). There is a personal escort on site, a wide range of services. The package included snorkeling equipment, sap, kayak and 3 excursions. The kitchen is for any choice, plus we are ready to fulfill any individual order. You can have both an isolated vacation and spend time in public places (bar, billiards, table tennis, lawn tennis, spa, cigars, wine cellar, all aquasport). There is an 18+ zone where you can relax without children. Kids club with Sony PS - not used. The sunset part of the island with clean sand (corals have never been used), the sunrise part with corals and wildlife right from the shore. For every taste. Underwater life is very intense, almost like in the Red Sea. Any wishes are fulfilled very quickly. Any employee is always ready to help. This is only part of the available buzz - words cannot convey it.

You really need to be careful with this hotel. There is trouble with food, constantly empty plates- food is not reported, the menu barely pulls at 3 *, but this is 5 * and very low-budget. The hotel is aimed at the Chinese, apparently at the cheap segment of the Chinese, because of this there are a lot of them and it is very noisy, they can smoke next to you when you eat or in a secluded place on the beach where only you and your significant other dine for $ 300 separately from everyone - they will come up to you and stand and yell next to you With you. All engineering structures are heated on the beach, that is, the sand is washed out and concrete and torn bags are already visible all over the beach. We ordered breakfast at the plaza for $ 400 and a table was placed next to the trash, this is not on purpose- they are just very service-oriented, I repeat this is a 5* hotel, and the service is 2*.
But, there are also advantages. On the territory of the island there is its own clinic with professionally qualified doctors and in case of something - you will be pumped out like some of them were pumped out from a pressure of 240, there is everything from pills to oxygen. That's where the advantages end. Bottom line: the hotel is expensive at 2 million for two in 8 days, and the service in hotels for 200 thousand in 10 days. This is exactly the difference in money and value that you will be offered.
And here's another important point. Deep-sea fishing for $ 1300 takes place on a boat that doesn't even have a roof, it's a cheap fishing boat for local fishermen, which goes fishing every morning anyway, just for $ 1300 they will put you next to local fishermen and make you sweat for 6 hours in the open air in the sun next to sweaty men. And there should be a boat with a roof and a deck, so that when you don't catch a fish you can relax in the shade and enjoy a walk, in general, such a bottom can be expected for a lot of money. Of course, the hotel can change and there will be a trial, but as a rule this does not happen. And dirty dishes all over the restaurant is not the norm for 5*
We had a rest with a company of 3 people from 28.02-6.03.2024. I must say 5 * justified themselves. They were met at the airport, transported to the port where the seaplane was waiting, waiting for about an hour. Excellent waiting room, buffet with snacks, shower room. We flew from Male in 40-50 minutes with one landing on a neighboring island. The meeting is gorgeous, with drums, smiles, and a welcome cocktail. Our Russian-speaking manager at the Zhulduz hotel, special thanks to her, was in touch 24/7, solved any question, wish in 5 minutes. A very sweet and friendly girl. The first accommodation was in a villa on the beach, where all villas are 1 line. The villa is gorgeous, cleaning twice a day and replenishing the bar as well. The ocean is 10 steps away, the view is gorgeous from the villa. The second villa is on the water. I do not know for what merits, but they changed the standard villa to the premium villa without additional payment. This is generally a separate topic. Just a bomb. Although it is on the edge of the island, it is about 15 minutes on foot to the reception, but you can order an electric car from the room. Buffet meals, for every taste 5+. The only small disadvantage is that the animation is weak, the bars work until the last customer, and those who are interested in the topic of alcohol had everything in unlimited quantities. You can talk endlessly, but the hotel is worth the money and I would go to it more than once. Who is interested in telegram details: @superorgi
