Amazing Stay at Sun Siyam – A Few Tweaks Could Make It Perfect My recent stay at Sun Siyam in the Maldives was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by the incredibly warm and kind staff who made sure every moment of our visit was comfortable and enjoyable. Their hospitality was truly exceptional and made us feel like we were in paradise from day one. Our overwater villa was stunning, offering a spacious, luxurious space with breathtaking views of the turquoise lagoon. Having direct access to the water for swimming and snorkeling was a dream, and waking up to the sound of the ocean each morning was unforgettable. The villa’s design beautifully combined luxury and comfort, making it the perfect retreat after a day of exploring. The food at Sun Siyam was delicious, with plenty of fresh options that we thoroughly enjoyed. Every meal was a treat, and the beachfront dining experiences were incredibly special. However, we did notice that the menu was more Indian-oriented, which while flavorful, could benefit from a bit more international variety to cater to all tastes. Adding a wider range of global cuisine would make the dining experience even better. Despite that small suggestion, everything else was truly outstanding. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our stay was flawless, and the variety of activities – from water sports to spa treatments – kept us entertained and relaxed in equal measure. In summary, Sun Siyam is a slice of paradise, perfect for anyone looking for a luxurious and tranquil escape. With a slight adjustment to the food offerings, it would be absolutely perfect. We can’t wait to return to this beautiful resort!

Anantara Dhigu Maldives Resort

South Male Atoll

Anantara Dhigu Resort is surrounded by soft, white sand beach on Dhigufinolhu Island in the Maldives’ South Malé Atoll, a 35 minutes speedboat journey from the island nation’s international airport.

From end to end, our stay at Anantara Dhigu was smooth, relaxing and beautiful. Firstly, the resort staff is there for you from arrival until the check-in at the airline desk. I didn’t see many other resort providing this level of service to the other tourists lining up at the airport. You are greeted on arrival and the boat trip to the resort is only a little bit over half an hour, making it very convenient after traveling long haul. We stayed in an over water sunset villa and it was simply stunning. Some have hammock nets over the water and some have pools, both options looked lovely depending on your personal preference/need. The villa is clean and spacious, and is decorated tastefully. It feels very private and the view was beautiful. We opted for the half board option and that suited us well. We mostly ate at Fushi Cafe with the exception of one lunch at Aqua and one dinner at Baan Huraa but those just didn’t live up to the exceptional food at Fushi Cafe. There was a lot of choice as well as variation from day to day. The resort itself is very well designed and there is plenty of exploring to do, both on land and in water. As it sits in a lagoon, it also provides for shelter from wind on one side even on the windier days. Our villa for example tended to get a lot of wind but when dining at Fushi Cafe on the other side of the island, it was very peaceful. It is also easy to wade in the water to snorkel island and snorkel in the coral reef there. There is a pontoon constantly operating between Dhigu and Veli making it very easy to go to the other island. Compared to the other resorts I think this location within the lagoon and spanning over several islands makes it so interesting and unique. There are so many things I could mention but these are what were really memorable and noteworthy, as well as the staff of course who are very polite and attentive. I would definitely visit again.

    I loved the proximity to Male for ease of arrival and departure. I also loved looking at the city lights from afar, whilst being separated by stunningly turquoise waters and the gentle sounds of lapping waves. The marine life in the lagoon was plentiful and beautiful, and I had many marine visitors near my villa at all hours of the day. The snorkelling with sharks-excursion was probably the single best experience, but the resort itself was the star of the whole experience. The quality of the villa (amazing bed, wonderful toiletries from L'Occitane, the view, the constant refill of free fresh water and Nespresso coffee) and the rest of the resort (amazing food, world-class spa) was the stuff of holiday dreams!

    I had an absolutely fantastic stay at South Male Atoll / SUN SIYAM OLHUVELI! It take 45 mins from MALE airport to the island by speedboat.

The level of service provided was impeccable, and every team member I encountered was professional, friendly, and attentive to details.
