Reviews of Sun Island Resort & Spa

Hello everyone! I was with my husband at Villa Park. We arrived on March 19)) This was our first Maldives trip. Now I will write a detailed review. There will be a lot of letters)) It will be useful for someone when choosing a hotel, and for someone it will be pleasant to read the review, especially if they have been to this hotel❤️ Spoiler: we liked everything! In general, we have a lot of impressions🚀 •The color of the ocean, beautiful picture, atmosphere - I came for this and got it 1000%!) •The island is large and green. We walked a minimum of 7000 steps every day, and at peak - 17,000. We explored every inch of it. So much to see. There is even a zoo)) •We were very lucky with the weather. Although I was a bit worried and checked the forecast, which showed light rains. It's better not to look, it almost never matches for a long time. The whole week there was sunshine. One night there was a light rain, which is hard to even call rain. In my understanding, a tropical rain is a good downpour. Well, better without it if you're going for just a week. If for two weeks, maybe some variety is nice 😅 •Lots of greenery, there is shade, which helps in strong heat. Of course, this brings mosquitoes. In general, they are present on all Maldives😅. Repellents are essential in such destinations. Ours didn't help much; there are some Thai ones and lavender. •The sun in the Maldives is very bright and strong!) SPF 80 minimum for the first days + a lot of panthenol)) After Dubai, I was shocked by the weather; in Dubai it feels like 40, while here it was 28-29 degrees. Equator, in one word. •The ocean is warm. The entry varies. My husband swam with coral shoes, I did not, but I didn't go far. Clear water, and in it swims a shark or several. Right by the shore. They are everywhere)) Unusual and scary (especially when you see it for the first time)😀 •On the island, there is a beautiful lagoon and sandbank. We filmed a video with Ali!)) It turned out great👌🏻 I will also elaborate on the points: 1) The flight here was a direct Aeroflot flight. There is quite a lot of legroom and it's comfortable to sit, which is important since the flight is long)) Meals are provided twice + drinks (including wine) were offered + there is a screen where you can watch movies, etc. We arrived in Male around 10 AM. We got to the domestic terminal only at 13:45. Then a boat ride of 5 minutes. We were in the hotel around 15:00 or later. The weather was wonderful. We arrived, checked in, were treated to juice, and were given a towel. They briefly told us about the hotel, then we had lunch and went to the beach)) The return flight was at 14:10, we were picked up from the hotel around 9:00 AM, which is generally comfortable. Better than if the Aeroflot flight back was at 11:00 and we had to get up at night 😀 so it’s very important to choose the time considering their internal transport. The domestic schedule is peculiar. And if you miss the right time, you’ll be sitting and waiting, which adds color to the trip 🙈 2) I enjoyed the food. It was delicious)) Since we had full board, we mainly ate in the main restaurant (buffet); we did not go to other restaurants, so I cannot comment on them. I don't have any information about alcohol or cocktails either. There were desserts every time (at breakfast, lunch, and dinner). I wanted to try everything, but despite that, I didn't gain a gram because the island is large and we were constantly going somewhere 😅 either to take photos or to play table tennis and darts. One of our evenings had a disco. They played Russian songs as well. But I am currently not drinking alcohol, so I just observed)) some danced, the atmosphere was nice. 3) Room. Initially, we booked a beach villa. But when we arrived, we got upgraded for free to a deluxe beach villa (I don’t know why; probably it was being renovated or it was occupied). Everything is decent and clean. There is a tropical shower, a veranda, different cosmetics, and a clothesline) And honestly, it's cool that we got a different room. The beach was better on this side)) There are buggies on the island that will take you to different corners of the island; you just have to call or catch them. 4) Regarding activities, there is a lot to do overall. Romantic dates, diving, snorkeling. But unfortunately, we didn't take advantage of any of it. We exchanged a limited amount of dollars in our city. We tried to exchange at the resort, but then we changed our minds; it is possible in general, but it's better to do it in Russia and well in advance.. Overall, the hotel is family-friendly) And I was curious to visit such a large island!) For me, the Maldives is definitely love at first sight!❤️❤️ Ali, of course, shoots great videos. I enjoyed it 🤭 A little bit of photos for the atmosphere 🥰

Good day) Deluxe beach Villa number 3. These villas are not exactly near the ocean. We walked to the beach, but even in that there was its own vibe😀

In the Maldives for the first time! Beautiful views and the ocean ❤️ I wanted to share the beauty)) Villa park yesterday and today, I'm attaching photos 🤗 The impressions are very good, I like everything.

Girls and boys, don't cling to the beach. You can swim anywhere. We swam by the pool, by the watersport area, near the deluxes, and on the lagoon-villas side. The island 🏝️ is 2 x 1 km ☺️ 10 minutes on foot and you are at another beach 🌊 The only place where it's impossible to swim is the water villas, it's knee-deep there in a literal sense. Stand-up paddleboard 1 hour - $43, jet ski 15 minutes - $137, 30 minutes - $207.

The island 🏝️ is 2 x 1 km ☺️ 10 minutes on foot and you are at another beach 🌊 The only place where it's impossible to swim is the water villas, it's knee-deep there in a literal sense.

The Villa Park is so great! You can swim everywhere and lie down like in a bathtub! Pina colada and palm trees! Barbell and snooker! I hope the ifuru will be even cooler) Although for me, Villa Park is the best thing that has happened in my life!

Overall, we like the vacation here. The views are beautiful. As for the wildlife in the water - there was quite a massacre today (in the video) ))

In the photo, there is a bar in simple beach villas, water villas prior to renovation. After the renovation, they are somewhat similar to the villas with a pool. I can't find the video. In the water villas, you also get a beach bag, flip-flops, and slippers. Everything is new, packed. No one has been there before you ))

Hello everyone!😊 Our vacation has come to an end; we returned home the day before yesterday, and I'd like to share my impressions in case it might be helpful to someone. We flew with Emirates with a layover in Dubai (5 hours). The planes were excellent, the onboard food, flight attendants, takeoff, and landing were all great. However, the flight there was very tough for us. We decided that next time we would be better off paying extra for a direct flight or for a flight with a long layover to have the opportunity to rest in a hotel. We first flew 5 hours to Dubai, then had a 5-hour layover, and finally another 4 hours to Male. We arrived in Male right on schedule at 9:15, departed from Male at 13:30, and were on the island at the beginning of the third day) we checked in almost immediately) The return journey was much easier. Our flight was at 18:20, and we were picked up from the hotel at 14:00. We didn't wait anywhere, didn't stop at any other islands; we were taken to the airport when check-in was already in full swing, and by the time we went through all the controls, boarding was announced, and we didn't even have time to stroll around duty-free. Everything was very quick on the return trip) Now, about the vacation itself) Initially, we booked a Deluxe Beach Villa. Upon arrival, we were offered an upgrade to a Beach Villa. The Beach Villa is a lower category than the Deluxe, but the villa we were offered had just been renovated, everything was brand new, and no one had lived there before us. After looking at the old Deluxe and the new Beach Villa, we immediately agreed to the Beach Villa) The room is wonderful, the ocean is just steps away, but the only thing that bothered me was the lack of privacy. Of course, there weren't crowds of people like in Anapa, but you couldn't just go out on the veranda in a towel to sit) So we decided to try to upgrade to a villa with a pool. We had planned this while still in Moscow, but since the surcharge for a room with a pool was huge, we decided to take a risk and try to change it on the spot. It's significantly cheaper, but, of course, without guarantees, as the hotel is always full. At first, there were no available rooms, but on the fourth day, our room was found, and we moved. The upgrade cost was $200 per day. The room is magnificent, large. For two, it seemed incredibly spacious. Excellent access to the ocean, all new furniture, a tropical shower, a bathtub, and what was important to me: privacy. We didn't regret for a moment that we moved there. Even my husband said that here, of course, it’s a different level. Yes, it is a different level, but you need to understand that the price here is also completely different. For the last two nights, we stayed in water villas. The furniture is not new, but everything is clean and neat. The only downside is that the air conditioning is less powerful and noisier, but it didn’t bother us at all. The water villa also left only wonderful impressions. It’s incredibly cool to wake up, step out onto the balcony with a cup of coffee, and see the incredible Indian Ocean right under your feet😍 It’s really great that the island has different categories of rooms; everyone can find a villa to fit their budget. The nature here is the same for all, and it’s beautiful😍. There are no separate zones; you can walk and swim everywhere, which for me is an undeniable plus. I would never choose a hotel where there are restrictions on where you can go with a child and where entry is prohibited. For me, that's too much. But of course, this is purely my subjective opinion; everyone has their preference. Upon arrival, we weren't very lucky with the weather. The first three days were cloudy, and it occasionally rained; on the fourth day, it poured nearly all day. From the fifth day onwards, the weather improved. Now, looking back, I understand that it might even be good that the weather in the first days was not sunny but overcast with a breeze. During those days, we managed to explore the island, walking about 20k steps a day, riding bikes, and in the evenings, we attended evening events. After the weather improved, doing this wasn’t so comfortable anymore) With sunny weather, we swam more, sunbathed, and didn't have the energy for long walks or evening sit-outs)) This is to say that nature doesn’t have bad weather, especially when you're in the Maldives) you can always find your benefits. And yes, by the way, the ever-"beloved" tiles didn’t bother us at all, even after the rain; nobody slipped on them or broke their legs) at least not while we were there)) The Maldives have always been associated with small islands that can be walked around in just 10-15 minutes. This trip was a birthday gift from my husband, and he specifically chose the island. When I started reading information about it and found out that the island is far from small but rather one of the largest, I was secretly a bit disappointed, of course, without telling my husband. But when we arrived on the island, I realized how wrong I was and what a wonderful choice my husband made. Many acquaintances (especially those who have been to the Maldives) ask if we went insane with boredom for 12 days; we all say in unison that no, all the days flew by in a blink of an eye, we could have easily stayed longer)) There’s absolutely no time to be bored here as there are so many activities that everyone can find something to do. There are many restaurants and bars, you can swim and see the fish, ride bikes, enjoy various water activities, go to the spa, play tennis, billiards, badminton, table tennis, and so many more. We tried nearly everything and never had a second where we thought it was a bit boring. After dinner, we collapsed, completely exhausted) The beauty of the island is indescribable. It’s simply extraordinary. There are picture-perfect views at every step. Swings, hammocks, beautiful palms, greenery; you can take photographs literally at every step. The lagoon is incredibly beautiful. I haven't seen such a beautiful color of water anywhere, though I have something to compare it with. We’ve been to Mexico, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and been there more than once. Such extraordinarily beautiful water exists only here. The island is very well-kept; you can tell from the outside how lovingly the staff cares for it. Flying foxes soar above, and there are many herons) In general, beauty at every turn. I don’t know how many times a day I uttered the phrase "What beauty is here!", but I can surely say it was a lot. Sometimes I looked and couldn't believe my eyes that I was indeed seeing all this in reality and not in a dream.😍 We rented bikes for 2 days. The cost is $8 per day. It’s very nice to ride around the island and enjoy all its beauty. The only downside is that the bikes are not very comfortable, and it's better to put something soft under the seat; some put towels)) We also rode on a canoe, which we really enjoyed. I highly recommend the spa; I had a relaxing massage + a flower bath) I came out feeling as if I was reborn and looked ten years younger)) The hands of the masseuse are magical! The spa area itself is very beautiful, clean, green, and large. A small little green corner of paradise.😍 If you’re going to take a flower bath, it’s better to go as a pair so you can take photos there; I was alone, and it was quite difficult to do unless I was just photographing nature around)😄 In the bath itself, they pour various aromatic oils, and it simply relaxes immensely, but no matter how relaxing, I think $100 for 30 minutes is a bit much. We also went fishing. In the evening, they grilled all our catch, and it was very tasty. The only downside is that fishing is very nausea-inducing; we came back with "boiled" heads, and some people got really sick( In the evening, we watched the feeding of the sharks and rays. Such cuties😍. Honestly, when I watched videos on the internet, it didn’t evoke much emotion, but when you see it live, it’s a completely different feeling😍. Sharks come close, both tiny and enormous. Watching them is pure joy. We loved to go in the evenings to the Tropicana bar, sit on the cushions, and watch the sunset. Such a beautiful place. Also, the sandbar is incredible. It's like a magical place. In fact, there are no unbeautiful places on this island😍. About swimming with the fish near the Italian restaurant. We didn’t swim. We kept planning to but just never got there)) We left that for next time) There were plenty of fish along the shore. However, we did see a turtle. In the last days, we lived in a water villa, and it swam up to our villa and lingered there for a long time😍 I squealed with delight like a little child))😄 We went to see the parrots; there are so many, and they are all so beautiful) We also visited a farm where they grow greens and vegetables; everything was very well-maintained♥️ What we didn't do was plant a tree. We left that for the second-to-last day, then just forgot about it and remembered on the day of departure when there was no time left. But it’s okay; it will be an extra reason to return💛 I also want to note the work of the entire island staff. All employees are very friendly; everyone greets you, smiles, wishes you a good day, and if you need something, they always help and advise. And it’s always sincere; I never noticed any falsehood. If any staff member saw my husband and me trying to take a joint photo, they always approached and offered their help)) The waiters in the restaurants were always very attentive as well. Overall, it’s clear that the staff values its guests greatly. They always go out of their way and help with any request. When we first checked into the beach villa, we had no place to dry our clothes effectively. We approached the host Eliza at the reception and asked for either a dryer or perhaps a rope to hang in the bathroom; she replied that she would send a request. We returned to our room just 20 minutes later, and the dryer was already there.👍 For the last two days of our vacation, we booked a water villa on the sunrise side, and they checked us into a villa with a sunset view at no extra charge, even though it was significantly more expensive. That was very pleasant! In the evening, lying on a sunbed, holding a glass of wine in hand, and watching the sun go down is indescribable😍 We ordered breakfast on the water. The price was $170. It was very nice, and everything was extremely tasty, but there was way too much)) For a family with kids, it would be great; for just two of us, it was simply gluttony) we didn’t even finish 1/3, but in any case, we don’t regret it; it was an interesting experience))😄 There are evening events. They hold fire shows, beauty contests, and you can simply listen to live music; each bar has its own unique offerings, and once a week there's a disco. My husband and I went out of curiosity. Unfortunately, there were no Russian songs)) I was really hoping for "Gray Night," which they love to play at Villa Park, but I didn’t get it)😂 In general, I want to note that similar disco parties are arranged at almost every hotel, but for some reason only Villa Park gets criticized for it. Before the vacation, I read many threads in this price category, and practically in each one, there is a video with Russian songs playing at the discos. In my opinion, holding such parties once a week for variety is excellent. Nobody forces anyone to go; if you want, you go/if you don’t want, you don’t. The most important thing is that they take place in a bar that is far from the rooms, so it doesn’t disturb anyone, and they don’t last all night but for just 2 hours) We didn’t see any mosquitoes or fleas. On the first day, we used insect repellent, and then we stopped. Not a single bite. We didn't need any medicines either) But of course, it’s better to bring everything just in case and be prepared for anything) As for the food. We spent most of our vacation eating in the main restaurant. Yes, there weren’t any delicacies; I saw shrimp with rice a few times, a kind of plov with shrimp) There are no delicacies, but we never went hungry; there was always something to eat. There was always fish, meat, and chicken. The fruits included apples, melons, watermelons, very tasty oranges, delicious pineapples, and my favorite papaya😍 I didn't see mango at all, and there was no mango in the water villas' restaurant either. But for me, it wasn’t a problem because I can easily find tasty mango in Moscow, whereas I can’t find good papaya no matter how I search in Moscow. So I ate it to my heart's content there))😄 If we compare the regular restaurant and the water villas' restaurant, I agree with those who say that the food there is better. The variety isn’t vastly different, but it is more. They make pasta for you on the spot with various toppings, there are more types of cheese, more ice cream options, and I also saw pomegranates and passion fruit, which weren’t in the regular restaurant. And overall, it’s cozier, possibly because there are fewer people. But that doesn’t mean that the main restaurant is bad. Not at all. I’ll repeat that we never went hungry. You need to remember that this is not a luxury hotel but a mid-range hotel, so expecting champagne for breakfast and lobsters for lunch is completely ridiculous. If we wanted something special, we went to one of the à la carte restaurants and ate there. We dined twice at the Italian restaurant, three times at the Thai place, and once at the Zero restaurant) At the Italian place, we ordered carbonara, and I didn’t like it, but the tiramisu, tuna tartare, shrimp pasta, and beef carpaccio were incredibly delicious😍 At the Thai restaurant, we mostly had thermidor lobster; it was divinely tasty🔥, but I didn’t like the grilled lobster. We also had tom yum, which was excellent in our opinion, and we liked the mango ice cream and shrimp tempura. My husband also liked Pad Thai with seafood, but I didn't like it at all( At Zero, my husband had shrimp with sauce; he said it was nothing special, and I had chicken breast baked with herbs, served with a small portion of risotto in a creamy sauce. I loved it immensely. The risotto was delicious, even though there wasn’t much, and the chicken breast was exceptionally tender and not dry) I also want to emphasize the alcohol. All the alcohol is of excellent quality. There’s no rough stuff. All cocktails are tasty, but I liked the piña colada the most, so I mostly had that everywhere)) One time at the Tropicana bar, my husband had a serving of Hennessy, and he said it was fine, not fake. In summary, I’ll say that these were incredible 12 days in an extraordinarily beautiful place. We’ve traveled a lot, but the vacation at Villa Park became the best of all our journeys. I was afraid that I wouldn’t have those “Wow, what water, what beauty!” impressions about the Maldives after Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and especially Mexico, but no! The first reaction was precisely that “Wow!” even with the weather not being sunny in the first days😍 This is not Cuba, not Mexico, not the Dominican Republic, and certainly not Turkey, as some people write🤦‍♀️ Honestly, I just want to roll my eyes at those who say such things🤦‍♀️. On this island, I saw the real Maldives with their stunningly beautiful nature and incredible ocean, the Maldives you see in pictures. I saw that very picture I always looked at and thought: “Could it really be that beautiful, and is this not photoshop?” Yes, indeed, it’s exactly like that. For which I am immensely grateful to Villa Park❤️ Will we return here? Absolutely! Will I recommend this hotel? Of course! It has captured our hearts❤️ and made us fall in love with the beautiful Maldives Islands😍

Hello everyone!😊 Our vacation has come to an end; we returned home the day before yesterday, and I'd like to share my impressions in case it might be helpful to someone. We flew with Emirates with a layover in Dubai (5 hours). The planes were excellent, the onboard food, flight attendants, takeoff, and landing were all great. However, the flight there was very tough for us. We decided that next time we would be better off paying extra for a direct flight or for a flight with a long layover to have the opportunity to rest in a hotel. We first flew 5 hours to Dubai, then had a 5-hour layover, and finally another 4 hours to Male. We arrived in Male right on schedule at 9:15, departed from Male at 13:30, and were on the island at the beginning of the third day) we checked in almost immediately) The return journey was much easier. Our flight was at 18:20, and we were picked up from the hotel at 14:00. We didn't wait anywhere, didn't stop at any other islands; we were taken to the airport when check-in was already in full swing, and by the time we went through all the controls, boarding was announced, and we didn't even have time to stroll around duty-free. Everything was very quick on the return trip) Now, about the vacation itself) Initially, we booked a Deluxe Beach Villa. Upon arrival, we were offered an upgrade to a Beach Villa. The Beach Villa is a lower category than the Deluxe, but the villa we were offered had just been renovated, everything was brand new, and no one had lived there before us. After looking at the old Deluxe and the new Beach Villa, we immediately agreed to the Beach Villa) The room is wonderful, the ocean is just steps away, but the only thing that bothered me was the lack of privacy. Of course, there weren't crowds of people like in Anapa, but you couldn't just go out on the veranda in a towel to sit) So we decided to try to upgrade to a villa with a pool. We had planned this while still in Moscow, but since the surcharge for a room with a pool was huge, we decided to take a risk and try to change it on the spot. It's significantly cheaper, but, of course, without guarantees, as the hotel is always full. At first, there were no available rooms, but on the fourth day, our room was found, and we moved. The upgrade cost was $200 per day. The room is magnificent, large. For two, it seemed incredibly spacious. Excellent access to the ocean, all new furniture, a tropical shower, a bathtub, and what was important to me: privacy. We didn't regret for a moment that we moved there. Even my husband said that here, of course, it’s a different level. Yes, it is a different level, but you need to understand that the price here is also completely different. For the last two nights, we stayed in water villas. The furniture is not new, but everything is clean and neat. The only downside is that the air conditioning is less powerful and noisier, but it didn’t bother us at all. The water villa also left only wonderful impressions. It’s incredibly cool to wake up, step out onto the balcony with a cup of coffee, and see the incredible Indian Ocean right under your feet😍 It’s really great that the island has different categories of rooms; everyone can find a villa to fit their budget. The nature here is the same for all, and it’s beautiful😍. There are no separate zones; you can walk and swim everywhere, which for me is an undeniable plus. I would never choose a hotel where there are restrictions on where you can go with a child and where entry is prohibited. For me, that's too much. But of course, this is purely my subjective opinion; everyone has their preference. Upon arrival, we weren't very lucky with the weather. The first three days were cloudy, and it occasionally rained; on the fourth day, it poured nearly all day. From the fifth day onwards, the weather improved. Now, looking back, I understand that it might even be good that the weather in the first days was not sunny but overcast with a breeze. During those days, we managed to explore the island, walking about 20k steps a day, riding bikes, and in the evenings, we attended evening events. After the weather improved, doing this wasn’t so comfortable anymore) With sunny weather, we swam more, sunbathed, and didn't have the energy for long walks or evening sit-outs)) This is to say that nature doesn’t have bad weather, especially when you're in the Maldives) you can always find your benefits. And yes, by the way, the ever-"beloved" tiles didn’t bother us at all, even after the rain; nobody slipped on them or broke their legs) at least not while we were there)) The Maldives have always been associated with small islands that can be walked around in just 10-15 minutes. This trip was a birthday gift from my husband, and he specifically chose the island. When I started reading information about it and found out that the island is far from small but rather one of the largest, I was secretly a bit disappointed, of course, without telling my husband. But when we arrived on the island, I realized how wrong I was and what a wonderful choice my husband made. Many acquaintances (especially those who have been to the Maldives) ask if we went insane with boredom for 12 days; we all say in unison that no, all the days flew by in a blink of an eye, we could have easily stayed longer)) There’s absolutely no time to be bored here as there are so many activities that everyone can find something to do. There are many restaurants and bars, you can swim and see the fish, ride bikes, enjoy various water activities, go to the spa, play tennis, billiards, badminton, table tennis, and so many more. We tried nearly everything and never had a second where we thought it was a bit boring. After dinner, we collapsed, completely exhausted) The beauty of the island is indescribable. It’s simply extraordinary. There are picture-perfect views at every step. Swings, hammocks, beautiful palms, greenery; you can take photographs literally at every step. The lagoon is incredibly beautiful. I haven't seen such a beautiful color of water anywhere, though I have something to compare it with. We’ve been to Mexico, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and been there more than once. Such extraordinarily beautiful water exists only here. The island is very well-kept; you can tell from the outside how lovingly the staff cares for it. Flying foxes soar above, and there are many herons) In general, beauty at every turn. I don’t know how many times a day I uttered the phrase "What beauty is here!", but I can surely say it was a lot. Sometimes I looked and couldn't believe my eyes that I was indeed seeing all this in reality and not in a dream.😍 We rented bikes for 2 days. The cost is $8 per day. It’s very nice to ride around the island and enjoy all its beauty. The only downside is that the bikes are not very comfortable, and it's better to put something soft under the seat; some put towels)) We also rode on a canoe, which we really enjoyed. I highly recommend the spa; I had a relaxing massage + a flower bath) I came out feeling as if I was reborn and looked ten years younger)) The hands of the masseuse are magical! The spa area itself is very beautiful, clean, green, and large. A small little green corner of paradise.😍 If you’re going to take a flower bath, it’s better to go as a pair so you can take photos there; I was alone, and it was quite difficult to do unless I was just photographing nature around)😄 In the bath itself, they pour various aromatic oils, and it simply relaxes immensely, but no matter how relaxing, I think $100 for 30 minutes is a bit much. We also went fishing. In the evening, they grilled all our catch, and it was very tasty. The only downside is that fishing is very nausea-inducing; we came back with "boiled" heads, and some people got really sick( In the evening, we watched the feeding of the sharks and rays. Such cuties😍. Honestly, when I watched videos on the internet, it didn’t evoke much emotion, but when you see it live, it’s a completely different feeling😍. Sharks come close, both tiny and enormous. Watching them is pure joy. We loved to go in the evenings to the Tropicana bar, sit on the cushions, and watch the sunset. Such a beautiful place. Also, the sandbar is incredible. It's like a magical place. In fact, there are no unbeautiful places on this island😍. About swimming with the fish near the Italian restaurant. We didn’t swim. We kept planning to but just never got there)) We left that for next time) There were plenty of fish along the shore. However, we did see a turtle. In the last days, we lived in a water villa, and it swam up to our villa and lingered there for a long time😍 I squealed with delight like a little child))😄 We went to see the parrots; there are so many, and they are all so beautiful) We also visited a farm where they grow greens and vegetables; everything was very well-maintained♥️ What we didn't do was plant a tree. We left that for the second-to-last day, then just forgot about it and remembered on the day of departure when there was no time left. But it’s okay; it will be an extra reason to return💛 I also want to note the work of the entire island staff. All employees are very friendly; everyone greets you, smiles, wishes you a good day, and if you need something, they always help and advise. And it’s always sincere; I never noticed any falsehood. If any staff member saw my husband and me trying to take a joint photo, they always approached and offered their help)) The waiters in the restaurants were always very attentive as well. Overall, it’s clear that the staff values its guests greatly. They always go out of their way and help with any request. When we first checked into the beach villa, we had no place to dry our clothes effectively. We approached the host Eliza at the reception and asked for either a dryer or perhaps a rope to hang in the bathroom; she replied that she would send a request. We returned to our room just 20 minutes later, and the dryer was already there.👍 For the last two days of our vacation, we booked a water villa on the sunrise side, and they checked us into a villa with a sunset view at no extra charge, even though it was significantly more expensive. That was very pleasant! In the evening, lying on a sunbed, holding a glass of wine in hand, and watching the sun go down is indescribable😍 We ordered breakfast on the water. The price was $170. It was very nice, and everything was extremely tasty, but there was way too much)) For a family with kids, it would be great; for just two of us, it was simply gluttony) we didn’t even finish 1/3, but in any case, we don’t regret it; it was an interesting experience))😄 There are evening events. They hold fire shows, beauty contests, and you can simply listen to live music; each bar has its own unique offerings, and once a week there's a disco. My husband and I went out of curiosity. Unfortunately, there were no Russian songs)) I was really hoping for "Gray Night," which they love to play at Villa Park, but I didn’t get it)😂 In general, I want to note that similar disco parties are arranged at almost every hotel, but for some reason only Villa Park gets criticized for it. Before the vacation, I read many threads in this price category, and practically in each one, there is a video with Russian songs playing at the discos. In my opinion, holding such parties once a week for variety is excellent. Nobody forces anyone to go; if you want, you go/if you don’t want, you don’t. The most important thing is that they take place in a bar that is far from the rooms, so it doesn’t disturb anyone, and they don’t last all night but for just 2 hours) We didn’t see any mosquitoes or fleas. On the first day, we used insect repellent, and then we stopped. Not a single bite. We didn't need any medicines either) But of course, it’s better to bring everything just in case and be prepared for anything) As for the food. We spent most of our vacation eating in the main restaurant. Yes, there weren’t any delicacies; I saw shrimp with rice a few times, a kind of plov with shrimp) There are no delicacies, but we never went hungry; there was always something to eat. There was always fish, meat, and chicken. The fruits included apples, melons, watermelons, very tasty oranges, delicious pineapples, and my favorite papaya😍 I didn't see mango at all, and there was no mango in the water villas' restaurant either. But for me, it wasn’t a problem because I can easily find tasty mango in Moscow, whereas I can’t find good papaya no matter how I search in Moscow. So I ate it to my heart's content there))😄 If we compare the regular restaurant and the water villas' restaurant, I agree with those who say that the food there is better. The variety isn’t vastly different, but it is more. They make pasta for you on the spot with various toppings, there are more types of cheese, more ice cream options, and I also saw pomegranates and passion fruit, which weren’t in the regular restaurant. And overall, it’s cozier, possibly because there are fewer people. But that doesn’t mean that the main restaurant is bad. Not at all. I’ll repeat that we never went hungry. You need to remember that this is not a luxury hotel but a mid-range hotel, so expecting champagne for breakfast and lobsters for lunch is completely ridiculous. If we wanted something special, we went to one of the à la carte restaurants and ate there. We dined twice at the Italian restaurant, three times at the Thai place, and once at the Zero restaurant) At the Italian place, we ordered carbonara, and I didn’t like it, but the tiramisu, tuna tartare, shrimp pasta, and beef carpaccio were incredibly delicious😍 At the Thai restaurant, we mostly had thermidor lobster; it was divinely tasty🔥, but I didn’t like the grilled lobster. We also had tom yum, which was excellent in our opinion, and we liked the mango ice cream and shrimp tempura. My husband also liked Pad Thai with seafood, but I didn't like it at all( At Zero, my husband had shrimp with sauce; he said it was nothing special, and I had chicken breast baked with herbs, served with a small portion of risotto in a creamy sauce. I loved it immensely. The risotto was delicious, even though there wasn’t much, and the chicken breast was exceptionally tender and not dry) I also want to emphasize the alcohol. All the alcohol is of excellent quality. There’s no rough stuff. All cocktails are tasty, but I liked the piña colada the most, so I mostly had that everywhere)) One time at the Tropicana bar, my husband had a serving of Hennessy, and he said it was fine, not fake. In summary, I’ll say that these were incredible 12 days in an extraordinarily beautiful place. We’ve traveled a lot, but the vacation at Villa Park became the best of all our journeys. I was afraid that I wouldn’t have those “Wow, what water, what beauty!” impressions about the Maldives after Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and especially Mexico, but no! The first reaction was precisely that “Wow!” even with the weather not being sunny in the first days😍 This is not Cuba, not Mexico, not the Dominican Republic, and certainly not Turkey, as some people write🤦‍♀️ Honestly, I just want to roll my eyes at those who say such things🤦‍♀️. On this island, I saw the real Maldives with their stunningly beautiful nature and incredible ocean, the Maldives you see in pictures. I saw that very picture I always looked at and thought: “Could it really be that beautiful, and is this not photoshop?” Yes, indeed, it’s exactly like that.

Of course, there weren't crowds of people like in Anapa, but you couldn't just go out on the veranda in a towel to sit) So we decided to try to upgrade to a villa with a pool. We had planned this while still in Moscow, but since the surcharge for a room with a pool was huge, we decided to take a risk and try to change it on the spot. It's significantly cheaper, but, of course, without guarantees, as the hotel is always full. At first, there were no available rooms, but on the fourth day, our room was found, and we moved. The upgrade cost was $200 per day. The room is magnificent, large. For two, it seemed incredibly spacious. Excellent access to the ocean, all new furniture, a tropical shower, a bathtub, and what was important to me: privacy. We didn't regret for a moment that we moved there. Even my husband said that here, of course, it’s a different level. Yes, it is a different level, but you need to understand that the price here is also completely different. For the last two nights, we stayed in water villas. The furniture is not new, but everything is clean and neat. The only downside is that the air conditioning is less powerful and noisier, but it didn’t bother us at all. The water villa also left only wonderful impressions. It’s incredibly cool to wake up, step out onto the balcony with a cup of coffee, and see the incredible Indian Ocean right under your feet😍 It’s really great that the island has different categories of rooms; everyone can find a villa to fit their budget. The nature here is the same for all, and it’s beautiful😍. There are no separate zones; you can walk and swim everywhere, which for me is an undeniable plus. I would never choose a hotel where there are restrictions on where you can go with a child and where entry is prohibited. For me, that's too much. But of course, this is purely my subjective opinion; everyone has their preference. Upon arrival, we weren't very lucky with the weather. The first three days were cloudy, and it occasionally rained; on the fourth day, it poured nearly all day. From the fifth day onwards, the weather improved. Now, looking back, I understand that it might even be good that the weather in the first days was not sunny but overcast with a breeze. During those days, we managed to explore the island, walking about 20k steps a day, riding bikes, and in the evenings, we attended evening events. After the weather improved, doing this wasn’t so comfortable anymore) With sunny weather, we swam more, sunbathed, and didn't have the energy for long walks or evening sit-outs)) This is to say that nature doesn’t have bad weather, especially when you're in the Maldives) you can always find your benefits. And yes, by the way, the ever-"beloved" tiles didn’t bother us at all, even after the rain; nobody slipped on them or broke their legs) at least not while we were there)) The Maldives have always been associated with small islands that can be walked around in just 10-15 minutes. This trip was a birthday gift from my husband, and he specifically chose the island. When I started reading information about it and found out that the island is far from small but rather one of the largest, I was secretly a bit disappointed, of course, without telling my husband. But when we arrived on the island, I realized how wrong I was and what a wonderful choice my husband made. Many acquaintances (especially those who have been to the Maldives) ask if we went insane with boredom for 12 days; we all say in unison that no, all the days flew by in a blink of an eye, we could have easily stayed longer)) There’s absolutely no time to be bored here as there are so many activities that everyone can find something to do. There are many restaurants and bars, you can swim and see the fish, ride bikes, enjoy various water activities, go to the spa, play tennis, billiards, badminton, table tennis, and so many more. We tried nearly everything and never had a second where we thought it was a bit boring. After dinner, we collapsed, completely exhausted) The beauty of the island is indescribable. It’s simply extraordinary. There are picture-perfect views at every step. Swings, hammocks, beautiful palms, greenery; you can take photographs literally at every step. The lagoon is incredibly beautiful. I haven't seen such a beautiful color of water anywhere, though I have something to compare it with. We’ve been to Mexico, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and been there more than once. Such extraordinarily beautiful water exists only here. The island is very well-kept; you can tell from the outside how lovingly the staff cares for it. Flying foxes soar above, and there are many herons) In general, beauty at every turn. I don’t know how many times a day I uttered the phrase "What beauty is here!", but I can surely say it was a lot. Sometimes I looked and couldn't believe my eyes that I was indeed seeing all this in reality and not in a dream.😍 We rented bikes for 2 days. The cost is $8 per day. It’s very nice to ride around the island and enjoy all its beauty. The only downside is that the bikes are not very comfortable, and it's better to put something soft under the seat; some put towels)) We also rode on a canoe, which we really enjoyed. I highly recommend the spa; I had a relaxing massage + a flower bath) I came out feeling as if I was reborn and looked ten years younger)) The hands of the masseuse are magical! The spa area itself is very beautiful, clean, green, and large. A small little green corner of paradise.😍 If you’re going to take a flower bath, it’s better to go as a pair so you can take photos there; I was alone, and it was quite difficult to do unless I was just photographing nature around)😄 In the bath itself, they pour various aromatic oils, and it simply relaxes immensely, but no matter how relaxing, I think $100 for 30 minutes is a bit much. We also went fishing. In the evening, they grilled all our catch, and it was very tasty. The only downside is that fishing is very nausea-inducing; we came back with "boiled" heads, and some people got really sick( In the evening, we watched the feeding of the sharks and rays. Such cuties😍. Honestly, when I watched videos on the internet, it didn’t evoke much emotion, but when you see it live, it’s a completely different feeling😍. Sharks come close, both tiny and enormous. Watching them is pure joy. We loved to go in the evenings to the Tropicana bar, sit on the cushions, and watch the sunset. Such a beautiful place. Also, the sandbar is incredible. It's like a magical place. In fact, there are no unbeautiful places on this island😍. About swimming with the fish near the Italian restaurant. We didn’t swim. We kept planning to but just never got there)) We left that for next time) There were plenty of fish along the shore. However, we did see a turtle. In the last days, we lived in a water villa, and it swam up to our villa and lingered there for a long time😍 I squealed with delight like a little child))😄 We went to see the parrots; there are so many, and they are all so beautiful) We also visited a farm where they grow greens and vegetables; everything was very well-maintained♥️ What we didn't do was plant a tree. We left that for the second-to-last day, then just forgot about it and remembered on the day of departure when there was no time left. But it’s okay; it will be an extra reason to return💛 I also want to note the work of the entire island staff. All employees are very friendly; everyone greets you, smiles, wishes you a good day, and if you need something, they always help and advise. And it’s always sincere; I never noticed any falsehood. If any staff member saw my husband and me trying to take a joint photo, they always approached and offered their help)) The waiters in the restaurants were always very attentive as well. Overall, it’s clear that the staff values its guests greatly. They always go out of their way and help with any request. When we first checked into the beach villa, we had no place to dry our clothes effectively. We approached the host Eliza at the reception and asked for either a dryer or perhaps a rope to hang in the bathroom; she replied that she would send a request. We returned to our room just 20 minutes later, and the dryer was already there.👍 For the last two days of our vacation, we booked a water villa on the sunrise side, and they checked us into a villa with a sunset view at no extra charge, even though it was significantly more expensive. That was very pleasant! In the evening, lying on a sunbed, holding a glass of wine in hand, and watching the sun go down is indescribable😍 We ordered breakfast on the water. The price was $170. It was very nice, and everything was extremely tasty, but there was way too much)) For a family with kids, it would be great; for just two of us, it was simply gluttony) we didn’t even finish 1/3, but in any case, we don’t regret it; it was an interesting experience))😄 There are evening events. They hold fire shows, beauty contests, and you can simply listen to live music; each bar has its own unique offerings, and once a week there's a disco. My husband and I went out of curiosity. Unfortunately, there were no Russian songs)) I was really hoping for "Gray Night," which they love to play at Villa Park, but I didn’t get it)😂 In general, I want to note that similar disco parties are arranged at almost every hotel, but for some reason only Villa Park gets criticized for it. Before the vacation, I read many threads in this price category, and practically in each one, there is a video with Russian songs playing at the discos. In my opinion, holding such parties once a week for variety is excellent. Nobody forces anyone to go; if you want, you go/if you don’t want, you don’t. The most important thing is that they take place in a bar that is far from the rooms, so it doesn’t disturb anyone, and they don’t last all night but for just 2 hours) We didn’t see any mosquitoes or fleas. On the first day, we used insect repellent, and then we stopped. Not a single bite. We didn't need any medicines either) But of course, it’s better to bring everything just in case and be prepared for anything) As for the food. We spent most of our vacation eating in the main restaurant. Yes, there weren’t any delicacies; I saw shrimp with rice a few times, a kind of plov with shrimp) There are no delicacies, but we never went hungry; there was always something to eat. There was always fish, meat, and chicken. The fruits included apples, melons, watermelons, very tasty oranges, delicious pineapples, and my favorite papaya😍 I didn't see mango at all, and there was no mango in the water villas' restaurant either. But for me, it wasn’t a problem because I can easily find tasty mango in Moscow, whereas I can’t find good papaya no matter how I search in Moscow. So I ate it to my heart's content there))😄 If we compare the regular restaurant and the water villas' restaurant, I agree with those who say that the food there is better. The variety isn’t vastly different, but it is more. They make pasta for you on the spot with various toppings, there are more types of cheese, more ice cream options, and I also saw pomegranates and passion fruit, which weren’t in the regular restaurant. And overall, it’s cozier, possibly because there are fewer people. But that doesn’t mean that the main restaurant is bad. Not at all. I’ll repeat that we never went hungry. You need to remember that this is not a luxury hotel but a mid-range hotel, so expecting champagne for breakfast and lobsters for lunch is completely ridiculous. If we wanted something special, we went to one of the à la carte restaurants and ate there. We dined twice at the Italian restaurant, three times at the Thai place, and once at the Zero restaurant) At the Italian place, we ordered carbonara, and I didn’t like it, but the tiramisu, tuna tartare, shrimp pasta, and beef carpaccio were incredibly delicious😍 At the Thai restaurant, we mostly had thermidor lobster; it was divinely tasty🔥, but I didn’t like the grilled lobster. We also had tom yum, which was excellent in our opinion, and we liked the mango ice cream and shrimp tempura. My husband also liked Pad Thai with seafood, but I didn't like it at all( At Zero, my husband had shrimp with sauce; he said it was nothing special, and I had chicken breast baked with herbs, served with a small portion of risotto in a creamy sauce. I loved it immensely. The risotto was delicious, even though there wasn’t much, and the chicken breast was exceptionally tender and not dry) I also want to emphasize the alcohol. All the alcohol is of excellent quality. There’s no rough stuff. All cocktails are tasty, but I liked the piña colada the most, so I mostly had that everywhere)) One time at the Tropicana bar, my husband had a serving of Hennessy, and he said it was fine, not fake. In summary, I’ll say that these were incredible 12 days in an extraordinarily beautiful place. We’ve traveled a lot, but the vacation at Villa Park became the best of all our journeys. I was afraid that I wouldn’t have those “Wow, what water, what beauty!” impressions about the Maldives after Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and especially Mexico, but no! The first reaction was precisely that “Wow!” even with the weather not being sunny in the first days😍 This is not Cuba, not Mexico, not the Dominican Republic, and certainly not Turkey, as some people write🤦‍♀️ Honestly, I just want to roll my eyes at those who say such things🤦‍♀️. On this island, I saw the real Maldives with their stunningly beautiful nature and incredible ocean, the Maldives you see in pictures. I saw that very picture I always looked at and thought: “Could it really be that beautiful, and is this not photoshop?” Yes, indeed, it’s exactly like that. For which I am immensely grateful to Villa Park❤️ Will we return here? Absolutely! Will I recommend this hotel? Of course! It has captured our hearts❤️ and made us fall in love with the beautiful Maldives Islands😍

Hello everyone!😊 Our vacation has come to an end; we returned home the day before yesterday, and I'd like to share my impressions in case it might be helpful to someone. We flew with Emirates with a layover in Dubai (5 hours). The planes were excellent, the onboard food, flight attendants, takeoff, and landing were all great. However, the flight there was very tough for us. We decided that next time we would be better off paying extra for a direct flight or for a flight with a long layover to have the opportunity to rest in a hotel. We first flew 5 hours to Dubai, then had a 5-hour layover, and finally another 4 hours to Male. We arrived in Male right on schedule at 9:15, departed from Male at 13:30, and were on the island at the beginning of the third day) we checked in almost immediately) The return journey was much easier. Our flight was at 18:20, and we were picked up from the hotel at 14:00. We didn't wait anywhere, didn't stop at any other islands; we were taken to the airport when check-in was already in full swing, and by the time we went through all the controls, boarding was announced, and we didn't even have time to stroll around duty-free. Everything was very quick on the return trip) Now, about the vacation itself) Initially, we booked a Deluxe Beach Villa. Upon arrival, we were offered an upgrade to a Beach Villa. The Beach Villa is a lower category than the Deluxe, but the villa we were offered had just been renovated, everything was brand new, and no one had lived there before us. After looking at the old Deluxe and the new Beach Villa, we immediately agreed to the Beach Villa) The room is wonderful, the ocean is just steps away, but the only thing that bothered me was the lack of privacy.

During those days, we managed to explore the island, walking about 20k steps a day, riding bikes, and in the evenings, we attended evening events. After the weather improved, doing this wasn’t so comfortable anymore) With sunny weather, we swam more, sunbathed, and didn't have the energy for long walks or evening sit-outs)) This is to say that nature doesn’t have bad weather, especially when you're in the Maldives) you can always find your benefits. And yes, by the way, the ever-"beloved" tiles didn’t bother us at all, even after the rain; nobody slipped on them or broke their legs) at least not while we were there)) The Maldives have always been associated with small islands that can be walked around in just 10-15 minutes. This trip was a birthday gift from my husband, and he specifically chose the island. When I started reading information about it and found out that the island is far from small but rather one of the largest, I was secretly a bit disappointed, of course, without telling my husband. But when we arrived on the island, I realized how wrong I was and what a wonderful choice my husband made. Many acquaintances (especially those who have been to the Maldives) ask if we went insane with boredom for 12 days; we all say in unison that no, all the days flew by in a blink of an eye, we could have easily stayed longer)) There’s absolutely no time to be bored here as there are so many activities that everyone can find something to do. There are many restaurants and bars, you can swim and see the fish, ride bikes, enjoy various water activities, go to the spa, play tennis, billiards, badminton, table tennis, and so many more. We tried nearly everything and never had a second where we thought it was a bit boring. After dinner, we collapsed, completely exhausted) The beauty of the island is indescribable. It’s simply extraordinary. There are picture-perfect views at every step. Swings, hammocks, beautiful palms, greenery; you can take photographs literally at every step. The lagoon is incredibly beautiful. I haven't seen such a beautiful color of water anywhere, though I have something to compare it with. We’ve been to Mexico, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and been there more than once. Such extraordinarily beautiful water exists only here. The island is very well-kept; you can tell from the outside how lovingly the staff cares for it. Flying foxes soar above, and there are many herons) In general, beauty at every turn. I don’t know how many times a day I uttered the phrase "What beauty is here!", but I can surely say it was a lot. Sometimes I looked and couldn't believe my eyes that I was indeed seeing all this in reality and not in a dream.😍 We rented bikes for 2 days. The cost is $8 per day. It’s very nice to ride around the island and enjoy all its beauty. The only downside is that the bikes are not very comfortable, and it's better to put something soft under the seat; some put towels)) We also rode on a canoe, which we really enjoyed. I highly recommend the spa; I had a relaxing massage + a flower bath) I came out feeling as if I was reborn and looked ten years younger)) The hands of the masseuse are magical! The spa area itself is very beautiful, clean, green, and large. A small little green corner of paradise.😍 If you’re going to take a flower bath, it’s better to go as a pair so you can take photos there; I was alone, and it was quite difficult to do unless I was just photographing nature around)😄 In the bath itself, they pour various aromatic oils, and it simply relaxes immensely, but no matter how relaxing, I think $100 for 30 minutes is a bit much. We also went fishing. In the evening, they grilled all our catch, and it was very tasty. The only downside is that fishing is very nausea-inducing; we came back with "boiled" heads, and some people got really sick( In the evening, we watched the feeding of the sharks and rays. Such cuties😍. Honestly, when I watched videos on the internet, it didn’t evoke much emotion, but when you see it live, it’s a completely different feeling😍. Sharks come close, both tiny and enormous. Watching them is pure joy. We loved to go in the evenings to the Tropicana bar, sit on the cushions, and watch the sunset. Such a beautiful place. Also, the sandbar is incredible. It's like a magical place. In fact, there are no unbeautiful places on this island😍. About swimming with the fish near the Italian restaurant. We didn’t swim. We kept planning to but just never got there)) We left that for next time) There were plenty of fish along the shore. However, we did see a turtle. In the last days, we lived in a water villa, and it swam up to our villa and lingered there for a long time😍 I squealed with delight like a little child))😄 We went to see the parrots; there are so many, and they are all so beautiful) We also visited a farm where they grow greens and vegetables; everything was very well-maintained♥️ What we didn't do was plant a tree. We left that for the second-to-last day, then just forgot about it and remembered on the day of departure when there was no time left. But it’s okay; it will be an extra reason to return💛 I also want to note the work of the entire island staff. All employees are very friendly; everyone greets you, smiles, wishes you a good day, and if you need something, they always help and advise. And it’s always sincere; I never noticed any falsehood. If any staff member saw my husband and me trying to take a joint photo, they always approached and offered their help)) The waiters in the restaurants were always very attentive as well. Overall, it’s clear that the staff values its guests greatly. They always go out of their way and help with any request. When we first checked into the beach villa, we had no place to dry our clothes effectively. We approached the host Eliza at the reception and asked for either a dryer or perhaps a rope to hang in the bathroom; she replied that she would send a request. We returned to our room just 20 minutes later, and the dryer was already there.👍 For the last two days of our vacation, we booked a water villa on the sunrise side, and they checked us into a villa with a sunset view at no extra charge, even though it was significantly more expensive. That was very pleasant! In the evening, lying on a sunbed, holding a glass of wine in hand, and watching the sun go down is indescribable😍 We ordered breakfast on the water. The price was $170. It was very nice, and everything was extremely tasty, but there was way too much)) For a family with kids, it would be great; for just two of us, it was simply gluttony) we didn’t even finish 1/3, but in any case, we don’t regret it; it was an interesting experience))😄 There are evening events. They hold fire shows, beauty contests, and you can simply listen to live music; each bar has its own unique offerings, and once a week there's a disco. My husband and I went out of curiosity. Unfortunately, there were no Russian songs)) I was really hoping for "Gray Night," which they love to play at Villa Park, but I didn’t get it)😂 In general, I want to note that similar disco parties are arranged at almost every hotel, but for some reason only Villa Park gets criticized for it. Before the vacation, I read many threads in this price category, and practically in each one, there is a video with Russian songs playing at the discos. In my opinion, holding such parties once a week for variety is excellent. Nobody forces anyone to go; if you want, you go/if you don’t want, you don’t. The most important thing is that they take place in a bar that is far from the rooms, so it doesn’t disturb anyone, and they don’t last all night but for just 2 hours) We didn’t see any mosquitoes or fleas. On the first day, we used insect repellent, and then we stopped. Not a single bite. We didn't need any medicines either) But of course, it’s better to bring everything just in case and be prepared for anything) As for the food. We spent most of our vacation eating in the main restaurant. Yes, there weren’t any delicacies; I saw shrimp with rice a few times, a kind of plov with shrimp) There are no delicacies, but we never went hungry; there was always something to eat. There was always fish, meat, and chicken. The fruits included apples, melons, watermelons, very tasty oranges, delicious pineapples, and my favorite papaya😍 I didn't see mango at all, and there was no mango in the water villas' restaurant either. But for me, it wasn’t a problem because I can easily find tasty mango in Moscow, whereas I can’t find good papaya no matter how I search in Moscow. So I ate it to my heart's content there))😄 If we compare the regular restaurant and the water villas' restaurant, I agree with those who say that the food there is better. The variety isn’t vastly different, but it is more. They make pasta for you on the spot with various toppings, there are more types of cheese, more ice cream options, and I also saw pomegranates and passion fruit, which weren’t in the regular restaurant. And overall, it’s cozier, possibly because there are fewer people. But that doesn’t mean that the main restaurant is bad. Not at all. I’ll repeat that we never went hungry. You need to remember that this is not a luxury hotel but a mid-range hotel, so expecting champagne for breakfast and lobsters for lunch is completely ridiculous. If we wanted something special, we went to one of the à la carte restaurants and ate there. We dined twice at the Italian restaurant, three times at the Thai place, and once at the Zero restaurant) At the Italian place, we ordered carbonara, and I didn’t like it, but the tiramisu, tuna tartare, shrimp pasta, and beef carpaccio were incredibly delicious😍 At the Thai restaurant, we mostly had thermidor lobster; it was divinely tasty🔥, but I didn’t like the grilled lobster. We also had tom yum, which was excellent in our opinion, and we liked the mango ice cream and shrimp tempura. My husband also liked Pad Thai with seafood, but I didn't like it at all( At Zero, my husband had shrimp with sauce; he said it was nothing special, and I had chicken breast baked with herbs, served with a small portion of risotto in a creamy sauce. I loved it immensely. The risotto was delicious, even though there wasn’t much, and the chicken breast was exceptionally tender and not dry) I also want to emphasize the alcohol. All the alcohol is of excellent quality. There’s no rough stuff. All cocktails are tasty, but I liked the piña colada the most, so I mostly had that everywhere)) One time at the Tropicana bar, my husband had a serving of Hennessy, and he said it was fine, not fake. In summary, I’ll say that these were incredible 12 days in an extraordinarily beautiful place. We’ve traveled a lot, but the vacation at Villa Park became the best of all our journeys. I was afraid that I wouldn’t have those “Wow, what water, what beauty!” impressions about the Maldives after Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and especially Mexico, but no! The first reaction was precisely that “Wow!” even with the weather not being sunny in the first days😍 This is not Cuba, not Mexico, not the Dominican Republic, and certainly not Turkey, as some people write🤦‍♀️ Honestly, I just want to roll my eyes at those who say such things🤦‍♀️. On this island, I saw the real Maldives with their stunningly beautiful nature and incredible ocean, the Maldives you see in pictures. I saw that very picture I always looked at and thought: “Could it really be that beautiful, and is this not photoshop?” Yes, indeed, it’s exactly like that. For which I am immensely grateful to Villa Park❤️ Will we return here? Absolutely! Will I recommend this hotel? Of course! It has captured our hearts❤️ and made us fall in love with the beautiful Maldives Islands😍

Hello everyone!😊 Our vacation has come to an end; we returned home the day before yesterday, and I'd like to share my impressions in case it might be helpful to someone. We flew with Emirates with a layover in Dubai (5 hours). The planes were excellent, the onboard food, flight attendants, takeoff, and landing were all great. However, the flight there was very tough for us. We decided that next time we would be better off paying extra for a direct flight or for a flight with a long layover to have the opportunity to rest in a hotel. We first flew 5 hours to Dubai, then had a 5-hour layover, and finally another 4 hours to Male. We arrived in Male right on schedule at 9:15, departed from Male at 13:30, and were on the island at the beginning of the third day) we checked in almost immediately) The return journey was much easier. Our flight was at 18:20, and we were picked up from the hotel at 14:00. We didn't wait anywhere, didn't stop at any other islands; we were taken to the airport when check-in was already in full swing, and by the time we went through all the controls, boarding was announced, and we didn't even have time to stroll around duty-free. Everything was very quick on the return trip) Now, about the vacation itself) Initially, we booked a Deluxe Beach Villa. Upon arrival, we were offered an upgrade to a Beach Villa. The Beach Villa is a lower category than the Deluxe, but the villa we were offered had just been renovated, everything was brand new, and no one had lived there before us. After looking at the old Deluxe and the new Beach Villa, we immediately agreed to the Beach Villa) The room is wonderful, the ocean is just steps away, but the only thing that bothered me was the lack of privacy. Of course, there weren't crowds of people like in Anapa, but you couldn't just go out on the veranda in a towel to sit) So we decided to try to upgrade to a villa with a pool. We had planned this while still in Moscow, but since the surcharge for a room with a pool was huge, we decided to take a risk and try to change it on the spot. It's significantly cheaper, but, of course, without guarantees, as the hotel is always full. At first, there were no available rooms, but on the fourth day, our room was found, and we moved. The upgrade cost was $200 per day. The room is magnificent, large. For two, it seemed incredibly spacious. Excellent access to the ocean, all new furniture, a tropical shower, a bathtub, and what was important to me: privacy. We didn't regret for a moment that we moved there. Even my husband said that here, of course, it’s a different level. Yes, it is a different level, but you need to understand that the price here is also completely different. For the last two nights, we stayed in water villas. The furniture is not new, but everything is clean and neat. The only downside is that the air conditioning is less powerful and noisier, but it didn’t bother us at all. The water villa also left only wonderful impressions. It’s incredibly cool to wake up, step out onto the balcony with a cup of coffee, and see the incredible Indian Ocean right under your feet😍 It’s really great that the island has different categories of rooms; everyone can find a villa to fit their budget. The nature here is the same for all, and it’s beautiful😍. There are no separate zones; you can walk and swim everywhere, which for me is an undeniable plus. I would never choose a hotel where there are restrictions on where you can go with a child and where entry is prohibited. For me, that's too much. But of course, this is purely my subjective opinion; everyone has their preference. Upon arrival, we weren't very lucky with the weather. The first three days were cloudy, and it occasionally rained; on the fourth day, it poured nearly all day. From the fifth day onwards, the weather improved. Now, looking back, I understand that it might even be good that the weather in the first days was not sunny but overcast with a breeze.

I don’t know how many times a day I uttered the phrase "What beauty is here!", but I can surely say it was a lot. Sometimes I looked and couldn't believe my eyes that I was indeed seeing all this in reality and not in a dream.😍 We rented bikes for 2 days. The cost is $8 per day. It’s very nice to ride around the island and enjoy all its beauty. The only downside is that the bikes are not very comfortable, and it's better to put something soft under the seat; some put towels)) We also rode on a canoe, which we really enjoyed. I highly recommend the spa; I had a relaxing massage + a flower bath) I came out feeling as if I was reborn and looked ten years younger)) The hands of the masseuse are magical! The spa area itself is very beautiful, clean, green, and large. A small little green corner of paradise.😍 If you’re going to take a flower bath, it’s better to go as a pair so you can take photos there; I was alone, and it was quite difficult to do unless I was just photographing nature around)😄 In the bath itself, they pour various aromatic oils, and it simply relaxes immensely, but no matter how relaxing, I think $100 for 30 minutes is a bit much. We also went fishing. In the evening, they grilled all our catch, and it was very tasty. The only downside is that fishing is very nausea-inducing; we came back with "boiled" heads, and some people got really sick( In the evening, we watched the feeding of the sharks and rays. Such cuties😍. Honestly, when I watched videos on the internet, it didn’t evoke much emotion, but when you see it live, it’s a completely different feeling😍. Sharks come close, both tiny and enormous. Watching them is pure joy. We loved to go in the evenings to the Tropicana bar, sit on the cushions, and watch the sunset. Such a beautiful place. Also, the sandbar is incredible. It's like a magical place. In fact, there are no unbeautiful places on this island😍. About swimming with the fish near the Italian restaurant. We didn’t swim. We kept planning to but just never got there)) We left that for next time) There were plenty of fish along the shore. However, we did see a turtle. In the last days, we lived in a water villa, and it swam up to our villa and lingered there for a long time😍 I squealed with delight like a little child))😄 We went to see the parrots; there are so many, and they are all so beautiful) We also visited a farm where they grow greens and vegetables; everything was very well-maintained♥️ What we didn't do was plant a tree. We left that for the second-to-last day, then just forgot about it and remembered on the day of departure when there was no time left. But it’s okay; it will be an extra reason to return💛 I also want to note the work of the entire island staff. All employees are very friendly; everyone greets you, smiles, wishes you a good day, and if you need something, they always help and advise. And it’s always sincere; I never noticed any falsehood. If any staff member saw my husband and me trying to take a joint photo, they always approached and offered their help)) The waiters in the restaurants were always very attentive as well. Overall, it’s clear that the staff values its guests greatly. They always go out of their way and help with any request. When we first checked into the beach villa, we had no place to dry our clothes effectively. We approached the host Eliza at the reception and asked for either a dryer or perhaps a rope to hang in the bathroom; she replied that she would send a request. We returned to our room just 20 minutes later, and the dryer was already there.👍 For the last two days of our vacation, we booked a water villa on the sunrise side, and they checked us into a villa with a sunset view at no extra charge, even though it was significantly more expensive. That was very pleasant! In the evening, lying on a sunbed, holding a glass of wine in hand, and watching the sun go down is indescribable😍 We ordered breakfast on the water. The price was $170. It was very nice, and everything was extremely tasty, but there was way too much)) For a family with kids, it would be great; for just two of us, it was simply gluttony) we didn’t even finish 1/3, but in any case, we don’t regret it; it was an interesting experience))😄 There are evening events. They hold fire shows, beauty contests, and you can simply listen to live music; each bar has its own unique offerings, and once a week there's a disco. My husband and I went out of curiosity. Unfortunately, there were no Russian songs)) I was really hoping for "Gray Night," which they love to play at Villa Park, but I didn’t get it)😂 In general, I want to note that similar disco parties are arranged at almost every hotel, but for some reason only Villa Park gets criticized for it. Before the vacation, I read many threads in this price category, and practically in each one, there is a video with Russian songs playing at the discos. In my opinion, holding such parties once a week for variety is excellent. Nobody forces anyone to go; if you want, you go/if you don’t want, you don’t. The most important thing is that they take place in a bar that is far from the rooms, so it doesn’t disturb anyone, and they don’t last all night but for just 2 hours) We didn’t see any mosquitoes or fleas. On the first day, we used insect repellent, and then we stopped. Not a single bite. We didn't need any medicines either) But of course, it’s better to bring everything just in case and be prepared for anything) As for the food. We spent most of our vacation eating in the main restaurant. Yes, there weren’t any delicacies; I saw shrimp with rice a few times, a kind of plov with shrimp) There are no delicacies, but we never went hungry; there was always something to eat. There was always fish, meat, and chicken. The fruits included apples, melons, watermelons, very tasty oranges, delicious pineapples, and my favorite papaya😍 I didn't see mango at all, and there was no mango in the water villas' restaurant either. But for me, it wasn’t a problem because I can easily find tasty mango in Moscow, whereas I can’t find good papaya no matter how I search in Moscow. So I ate it to my heart's content there))😄 If we compare the regular restaurant and the water villas' restaurant, I agree with those who say that the food there is better. The variety isn’t vastly different, but it is more. They make pasta for you on the spot with various toppings, there are more types of cheese, more ice cream options, and I also saw pomegranates and passion fruit, which weren’t in the regular restaurant. And overall, it’s cozier, possibly because there are fewer people. But that doesn’t mean that the main restaurant is bad. Not at all. I’ll repeat that we never went hungry. You need to remember that this is not a luxury hotel but a mid-range hotel, so expecting champagne for breakfast and lobsters for lunch is completely ridiculous. If we wanted something special, we went to one of the à la carte restaurants and ate there. We dined twice at the Italian restaurant, three times at the Thai place, and once at the Zero restaurant) At the Italian place, we ordered carbonara, and I didn’t like it, but the tiramisu, tuna tartare, shrimp pasta, and beef carpaccio were incredibly delicious😍 At the Thai restaurant, we mostly had thermidor lobster; it was divinely tasty🔥, but I didn’t like the grilled lobster. We also had tom yum, which was excellent in our opinion, and we liked the mango ice cream and shrimp tempura. My husband also liked Pad Thai with seafood, but I didn't like it at all( At Zero, my husband had shrimp with sauce; he said it was nothing special, and I had chicken breast baked with herbs, served with a small portion of risotto in a creamy sauce. I loved it immensely. The risotto was delicious, even though there wasn’t much, and the chicken breast was exceptionally tender and not dry) I also want to emphasize the alcohol. All the alcohol is of excellent quality. There’s no rough stuff. All cocktails are tasty, but I liked the piña colada the most, so I mostly had that everywhere)) One time at the Tropicana bar, my husband had a serving of Hennessy, and he said it was fine, not fake. In summary, I’ll say that these were incredible 12 days in an extraordinarily beautiful place. We’ve traveled a lot, but the vacation at Villa Park became the best of all our journeys. I was afraid that I wouldn’t have those “Wow, what water, what beauty!” impressions about the Maldives after Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and especially Mexico, but no! The first reaction was precisely that “Wow!” even with the weather not being sunny in the first days😍 This is not Cuba, not Mexico, not the Dominican Republic, and certainly not Turkey, as some people write🤦‍♀️ Honestly, I just want to roll my eyes at those who say such things🤦‍♀️. On this island, I saw the real Maldives with their stunningly beautiful nature and incredible ocean, the Maldives you see in pictures. I saw that very picture I always looked at and thought: “Could it really be that beautiful, and is this not photoshop?” Yes, indeed, it’s exactly like that. For which I am immensely grateful to Villa Park❤️ Will we return here? Absolutely! Will I recommend this hotel? Of course! It has captured our hearts❤️ and made us fall in love with the beautiful Maldives Islands😍

Hello everyone!😊 Our vacation has come to an end; we returned home the day before yesterday, and I'd like to share my impressions in case it might be helpful to someone. We flew with Emirates with a layover in Dubai (5 hours). The planes were excellent, the onboard food, flight attendants, takeoff, and landing were all great. However, the flight there was very tough for us. We decided that next time we would be better off paying extra for a direct flight or for a flight with a long layover to have the opportunity to rest in a hotel. We first flew 5 hours to Dubai, then had a 5-hour layover, and finally another 4 hours to Male. We arrived in Male right on schedule at 9:15, departed from Male at 13:30, and were on the island at the beginning of the third day) we checked in almost immediately) The return journey was much easier. Our flight was at 18:20, and we were picked up from the hotel at 14:00. We didn't wait anywhere, didn't stop at any other islands; we were taken to the airport when check-in was already in full swing, and by the time we went through all the controls, boarding was announced, and we didn't even have time to stroll around duty-free. Everything was very quick on the return trip) Now, about the vacation itself) Initially, we booked a Deluxe Beach Villa. Upon arrival, we were offered an upgrade to a Beach Villa. The Beach Villa is a lower category than the Deluxe, but the villa we were offered had just been renovated, everything was brand new, and no one had lived there before us. After looking at the old Deluxe and the new Beach Villa, we immediately agreed to the Beach Villa) The room is wonderful, the ocean is just steps away, but the only thing that bothered me was the lack of privacy. Of course, there weren't crowds of people like in Anapa, but you couldn't just go out on the veranda in a towel to sit) So we decided to try to upgrade to a villa with a pool. We had planned this while still in Moscow, but since the surcharge for a room with a pool was huge, we decided to take a risk and try to change it on the spot. It's significantly cheaper, but, of course, without guarantees, as the hotel is always full. At first, there were no available rooms, but on the fourth day, our room was found, and we moved. The upgrade cost was $200 per day. The room is magnificent, large. For two, it seemed incredibly spacious. Excellent access to the ocean, all new furniture, a tropical shower, a bathtub, and what was important to me: privacy. We didn't regret for a moment that we moved there. Even my husband said that here, of course, it’s a different level. Yes, it is a different level, but you need to understand that the price here is also completely different. For the last two nights, we stayed in water villas. The furniture is not new, but everything is clean and neat. The only downside is that the air conditioning is less powerful and noisier, but it didn’t bother us at all. The water villa also left only wonderful impressions. It’s incredibly cool to wake up, step out onto the balcony with a cup of coffee, and see the incredible Indian Ocean right under your feet😍 It’s really great that the island has different categories of rooms; everyone can find a villa to fit their budget. The nature here is the same for all, and it’s beautiful😍. There are no separate zones; you can walk and swim everywhere, which for me is an undeniable plus. I would never choose a hotel where there are restrictions on where you can go with a child and where entry is prohibited. For me, that's too much. But of course, this is purely my subjective opinion; everyone has their preference. Upon arrival, we weren't very lucky with the weather. The first three days were cloudy, and it occasionally rained; on the fourth day, it poured nearly all day. From the fifth day onwards, the weather improved. Now, looking back, I understand that it might even be good that the weather in the first days was not sunny but overcast with a breeze. During those days, we managed to explore the island, walking about 20k steps a day, riding bikes, and in the evenings, we attended evening events. After the weather improved, doing this wasn’t so comfortable anymore) With sunny weather, we swam more, sunbathed, and didn't have the energy for long walks or evening sit-outs)) This is to say that nature doesn’t have bad weather, especially when you're in the Maldives) you can always find your benefits. And yes, by the way, the ever-"beloved" tiles didn’t bother us at all, even after the rain; nobody slipped on them or broke their legs) at least not while we were there)) The Maldives have always been associated with small islands that can be walked around in just 10-15 minutes. This trip was a birthday gift from my husband, and he specifically chose the island. When I started reading information about it and found out that the island is far from small but rather one of the largest, I was secretly a bit disappointed, of course, without telling my husband. But when we arrived on the island, I realized how wrong I was and what a wonderful choice my husband made. Many acquaintances (especially those who have been to the Maldives) ask if we went insane with boredom for 12 days; we all say in unison that no, all the days flew by in a blink of an eye, we could have easily stayed longer)) There’s absolutely no time to be bored here as there are so many activities that everyone can find something to do. There are many restaurants and bars, you can swim and see the fish, ride bikes, enjoy various water activities, go to the spa, play tennis, billiards, badminton, table tennis, and so many more. We tried nearly everything and never had a second where we thought it was a bit boring. After dinner, we collapsed, completely exhausted) The beauty of the island is indescribable. It’s simply extraordinary. There are picture-perfect views at every step. Swings, hammocks, beautiful palms, greenery; you can take photographs literally at every step. The lagoon is incredibly beautiful. I haven't seen such a beautiful color of water anywhere, though I have something to compare it with. We’ve been to Mexico, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and been there more than once. Such extraordinarily beautiful water exists only here. The island is very well-kept; you can tell from the outside how lovingly the staff cares for it. Flying foxes soar above, and there are many herons) In general, beauty at every turn.

In the last days, we lived in a water villa, and it swam up to our villa and lingered there for a long time😍 I squealed with delight like a little child))😄 We went to see the parrots; there are so many, and they are all so beautiful) We also visited a farm where they grow greens and vegetables; everything was very well-maintained♥️ What we didn't do was plant a tree. We left that for the second-to-last day, then just forgot about it and remembered on the day of departure when there was no time left. But it’s okay; it will be an extra reason to return💛 I also want to note the work of the entire island staff. All employees are very friendly; everyone greets you, smiles, wishes you a good day, and if you need something, they always help and advise. And it’s always sincere; I never noticed any falsehood. If any staff member saw my husband and me trying to take a joint photo, they always approached and offered their help)) The waiters in the restaurants were always very attentive as well. Overall, it’s clear that the staff values its guests greatly. They always go out of their way and help with any request. When we first checked into the beach villa, we had no place to dry our clothes effectively. We approached the host Eliza at the reception and asked for either a dryer or perhaps a rope to hang in the bathroom; she replied that she would send a request. We returned to our room just 20 minutes later, and the dryer was already there.👍 For the last two days of our vacation, we booked a water villa on the sunrise side, and they checked us into a villa with a sunset view at no extra charge, even though it was significantly more expensive. That was very pleasant! In the evening, lying on a sunbed, holding a glass of wine in hand, and watching the sun go down is indescribable😍 We ordered breakfast on the water. The price was $170. It was very nice, and everything was extremely tasty, but there was way too much)) For a family with kids, it would be great; for just two of us, it was simply gluttony) we didn’t even finish 1/3, but in any case, we don’t regret it; it was an interesting experience))😄 There are evening events. They hold fire shows, beauty contests, and you can simply listen to live music; each bar has its own unique offerings, and once a week there's a disco. My husband and I went out of curiosity. Unfortunately, there were no Russian songs)) I was really hoping for "Gray Night," which they love to play at Villa Park, but I didn’t get it)😂 In general, I want to note that similar disco parties are arranged at almost every hotel, but for some reason only Villa Park gets criticized for it. Before the vacation, I read many threads in this price category, and practically in each one, there is a video with Russian songs playing at the discos. In my opinion, holding such parties once a week for variety is excellent. Nobody forces anyone to go; if you want, you go/if you don’t want, you don’t. The most important thing is that they take place in a bar that is far from the rooms, so it doesn’t disturb anyone, and they don’t last all night but for just 2 hours) We didn’t see any mosquitoes or fleas. On the first day, we used insect repellent, and then we stopped. Not a single bite. We didn't need any medicines either) But of course, it’s better to bring everything just in case and be prepared for anything) As for the food. We spent most of our vacation eating in the main restaurant. Yes, there weren’t any delicacies; I saw shrimp with rice a few times, a kind of plov with shrimp) There are no delicacies, but we never went hungry; there was always something to eat. There was always fish, meat, and chicken. The fruits included apples, melons, watermelons, very tasty oranges, delicious pineapples, and my favorite papaya😍 I didn't see mango at all, and there was no mango in the water villas' restaurant either. But for me, it wasn’t a problem because I can easily find tasty mango in Moscow, whereas I can’t find good papaya no matter how I search in Moscow. So I ate it to my heart's content there))😄 If we compare the regular restaurant and the water villas' restaurant, I agree with those who say that the food there is better. The variety isn’t vastly different, but it is more. They make pasta for you on the spot with various toppings, there are more types of cheese, more ice cream options, and I also saw pomegranates and passion fruit, which weren’t in the regular restaurant. And overall, it’s cozier, possibly because there are fewer people. But that doesn’t mean that the main restaurant is bad. Not at all. I’ll repeat that we never went hungry. You need to remember that this is not a luxury hotel but a mid-range hotel, so expecting champagne for breakfast and lobsters for lunch is completely ridiculous. If we wanted something special, we went to one of the à la carte restaurants and ate there. We dined twice at the Italian restaurant, three times at the Thai place, and once at the Zero restaurant) At the Italian place, we ordered carbonara, and I didn’t like it, but the tiramisu, tuna tartare, shrimp pasta, and beef carpaccio were incredibly delicious😍 At the Thai restaurant, we mostly had thermidor lobster; it was divinely tasty🔥, but I didn’t like the grilled lobster. We also had tom yum, which was excellent in our opinion, and we liked the mango ice cream and shrimp tempura. My husband also liked Pad Thai with seafood, but I didn't like it at all( At Zero, my husband had shrimp with sauce; he said it was nothing special, and I had chicken breast baked with herbs, served with a small portion of risotto in a creamy sauce. I loved it immensely. The risotto was delicious, even though there wasn’t much, and the chicken breast was exceptionally tender and not dry) I also want to emphasize the alcohol. All the alcohol is of excellent quality. There’s no rough stuff. All cocktails are tasty, but I liked the piña colada the most, so I mostly had that everywhere)) One time at the Tropicana bar, my husband had a serving of Hennessy, and he said it was fine, not fake. In summary, I’ll say that these were incredible 12 days in an extraordinarily beautiful place. We’ve traveled a lot, but the vacation at Villa Park became the best of all our journeys. I was afraid that I wouldn’t have those “Wow, what water, what beauty!” impressions about the Maldives after Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and especially Mexico, but no! The first reaction was precisely that “Wow!” even with the weather not being sunny in the first days😍 This is not Cuba, not Mexico, not the Dominican Republic, and certainly not Turkey, as some people write🤦‍♀️ Honestly, I just want to roll my eyes at those who say such things🤦‍♀️. On this island, I saw the real Maldives with their stunningly beautiful nature and incredible ocean, the Maldives you see in pictures. I saw that very picture I always looked at and thought: “Could it really be that beautiful, and is this not photoshop?” Yes, indeed, it’s exactly like that. For which I am immensely grateful to Villa Park❤️ Will we return here? Absolutely! Will I recommend this hotel? Of course! It has captured our hearts❤️ and made us fall in love with the beautiful Maldives Islands😍

Hello everyone!😊 Our vacation has come to an end; we returned home the day before yesterday, and I'd like to share my impressions in case it might be helpful to someone. We flew with Emirates with a layover in Dubai (5 hours). The planes were excellent, the onboard food, flight attendants, takeoff, and landing were all great. However, the flight there was very tough for us. We decided that next time we would be better off paying extra for a direct flight or for a flight with a long layover to have the opportunity to rest in a hotel. We first flew 5 hours to Dubai, then had a 5-hour layover, and finally another 4 hours to Male. We arrived in Male right on schedule at 9:15, departed from Male at 13:30, and were on the island at the beginning of the third day) we checked in almost immediately) The return journey was much easier. Our flight was at 18:20, and we were picked up from the hotel at 14:00. We didn't wait anywhere, didn't stop at any other islands; we were taken to the airport when check-in was already in full swing, and by the time we went through all the controls, boarding was announced, and we didn't even have time to stroll around duty-free. Everything was very quick on the return trip) Now, about the vacation itself) Initially, we booked a Deluxe Beach Villa. Upon arrival, we were offered an upgrade to a Beach Villa. The Beach Villa is a lower category than the Deluxe, but the villa we were offered had just been renovated, everything was brand new, and no one had lived there before us. After looking at the old Deluxe and the new Beach Villa, we immediately agreed to the Beach Villa) The room is wonderful, the ocean is just steps away, but the only thing that bothered me was the lack of privacy. Of course, there weren't crowds of people like in Anapa, but you couldn't just go out on the veranda in a towel to sit) So we decided to try to upgrade to a villa with a pool. We had planned this while still in Moscow, but since the surcharge for a room with a pool was huge, we decided to take a risk and try to change it on the spot. It's significantly cheaper, but, of course, without guarantees, as the hotel is always full. At first, there were no available rooms, but on the fourth day, our room was found, and we moved. The upgrade cost was $200 per day. The room is magnificent, large. For two, it seemed incredibly spacious. Excellent access to the ocean, all new furniture, a tropical shower, a bathtub, and what was important to me: privacy. We didn't regret for a moment that we moved there. Even my husband said that here, of course, it’s a different level. Yes, it is a different level, but you need to understand that the price here is also completely different. For the last two nights, we stayed in water villas. The furniture is not new, but everything is clean and neat. The only downside is that the air conditioning is less powerful and noisier, but it didn’t bother us at all. The water villa also left only wonderful impressions. It’s incredibly cool to wake up, step out onto the balcony with a cup of coffee, and see the incredible Indian Ocean right under your feet😍 It’s really great that the island has different categories of rooms; everyone can find a villa to fit their budget. The nature here is the same for all, and it’s beautiful😍. There are no separate zones; you can walk and swim everywhere, which for me is an undeniable plus. I would never choose a hotel where there are restrictions on where you can go with a child and where entry is prohibited. For me, that's too much. But of course, this is purely my subjective opinion; everyone has their preference. Upon arrival, we weren't very lucky with the weather. The first three days were cloudy, and it occasionally rained; on the fourth day, it poured nearly all day. From the fifth day onwards, the weather improved. Now, looking back, I understand that it might even be good that the weather in the first days was not sunny but overcast with a breeze. During those days, we managed to explore the island, walking about 20k steps a day, riding bikes, and in the evenings, we attended evening events. After the weather improved, doing this wasn’t so comfortable anymore) With sunny weather, we swam more, sunbathed, and didn't have the energy for long walks or evening sit-outs)) This is to say that nature doesn’t have bad weather, especially when you're in the Maldives) you can always find your benefits. And yes, by the way, the ever-"beloved" tiles didn’t bother us at all, even after the rain; nobody slipped on them or broke their legs) at least not while we were there)) The Maldives have always been associated with small islands that can be walked around in just 10-15 minutes. This trip was a birthday gift from my husband, and he specifically chose the island. When I started reading information about it and found out that the island is far from small but rather one of the largest, I was secretly a bit disappointed, of course, without telling my husband. But when we arrived on the island, I realized how wrong I was and what a wonderful choice my husband made. Many acquaintances (especially those who have been to the Maldives) ask if we went insane with boredom for 12 days; we all say in unison that no, all the days flew by in a blink of an eye, we could have easily stayed longer)) There’s absolutely no time to be bored here as there are so many activities that everyone can find something to do. There are many restaurants and bars, you can swim and see the fish, ride bikes, enjoy various water activities, go to the spa, play tennis, billiards, badminton, table tennis, and so many more. We tried nearly everything and never had a second where we thought it was a bit boring. After dinner, we collapsed, completely exhausted) The beauty of the island is indescribable. It’s simply extraordinary. There are picture-perfect views at every step. Swings, hammocks, beautiful palms, greenery; you can take photographs literally at every step. The lagoon is incredibly beautiful. I haven't seen such a beautiful color of water anywhere, though I have something to compare it with. We’ve been to Mexico, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and been there more than once. Such extraordinarily beautiful water exists only here. The island is very well-kept; you can tell from the outside how lovingly the staff cares for it. Flying foxes soar above, and there are many herons) In general, beauty at every turn. I don’t know how many times a day I uttered the phrase "What beauty is here!", but I can surely say it was a lot. Sometimes I looked and couldn't believe my eyes that I was indeed seeing all this in reality and not in a dream.😍 We rented bikes for 2 days. The cost is $8 per day. It’s very nice to ride around the island and enjoy all its beauty. The only downside is that the bikes are not very comfortable, and it's better to put something soft under the seat; some put towels)) We also rode on a canoe, which we really enjoyed. I highly recommend the spa; I had a relaxing massage + a flower bath) I came out feeling as if I was reborn and looked ten years younger)) The hands of the masseuse are magical! The spa area itself is very beautiful, clean, green, and large. A small little green corner of paradise.😍 If you’re going to take a flower bath, it’s better to go as a pair so you can take photos there; I was alone, and it was quite difficult to do unless I was just photographing nature around)😄 In the bath itself, they pour various aromatic oils, and it simply relaxes immensely, but no matter how relaxing, I think $100 for 30 minutes is a bit much. We also went fishing. In the evening, they grilled all our catch, and it was very tasty. The only downside is that fishing is very nausea-inducing; we came back with "boiled" heads, and some people got really sick( In the evening, we watched the feeding of the sharks and rays. Such cuties😍. Honestly, when I watched videos on the internet, it didn’t evoke much emotion, but when you see it live, it’s a completely different feeling😍. Sharks come close, both tiny and enormous. Watching them is pure joy. We loved to go in the evenings to the Tropicana bar, sit on the cushions, and watch the sunset. Such a beautiful place. Also, the sandbar is incredible. It's like a magical place. In fact, there are no unbeautiful places on this island😍. About swimming with the fish near the Italian restaurant. We didn’t swim. We kept planning to but just never got there)) We left that for next time) There were plenty of fish along the shore. However, we did see a turtle.

Unfortunately, there were no Russian songs)) I was really hoping for "Gray Night," which they love to play at Villa Park, but I didn’t get it)😂 In general, I want to note that similar disco parties are arranged at almost every hotel, but for some reason only Villa Park gets criticized for it. Before the vacation, I read many threads in this price category, and practically in each one, there is a video with Russian songs playing at the discos. In my opinion, holding such parties once a week for variety is excellent. Nobody forces anyone to go; if you want, you go/if you don’t want, you don’t. The most important thing is that they take place in a bar that is far from the rooms, so it doesn’t disturb anyone, and they don’t last all night but for just 2 hours) We didn’t see any mosquitoes or fleas. On the first day, we used insect repellent, and then we stopped. Not a single bite. We didn't need any medicines either) But of course, it’s better to bring everything just in case and be prepared for anything) As for the food. We spent most of our vacation eating in the main restaurant. Yes, there weren’t any delicacies; I saw shrimp with rice a few times, a kind of plov with shrimp) There are no delicacies, but we never went hungry; there was always something to eat. There was always fish, meat, and chicken. The fruits included apples, melons, watermelons, very tasty oranges, delicious pineapples, and my favorite papaya😍 I didn't see mango at all, and there was no mango in the water villas' restaurant either. But for me, it wasn’t a problem because I can easily find tasty mango in Moscow, whereas I can’t find good papaya no matter how I search in Moscow. So I ate it to my heart's content there))😄 If we compare the regular restaurant and the water villas' restaurant, I agree with those who say that the food there is better. The variety isn’t vastly different, but it is more. They make pasta for you on the spot with various toppings, there are more types of cheese, more ice cream options, and I also saw pomegranates and passion fruit, which weren’t in the regular restaurant. And overall, it’s cozier, possibly because there are fewer people. But that doesn’t mean that the main restaurant is bad. Not at all. I’ll repeat that we never went hungry. You need to remember that this is not a luxury hotel but a mid-range hotel, so expecting champagne for breakfast and lobsters for lunch is completely ridiculous. If we wanted something special, we went to one of the à la carte restaurants and ate there. We dined twice at the Italian restaurant, three times at the Thai place, and once at the Zero restaurant) At the Italian place, we ordered carbonara, and I didn’t like it, but the tiramisu, tuna tartare, shrimp pasta, and beef carpaccio were incredibly delicious😍 At the Thai restaurant, we mostly had thermidor lobster; it was divinely tasty🔥, but I didn’t like the grilled lobster. We also had tom yum, which was excellent in our opinion, and we liked the mango ice cream and shrimp tempura. My husband also liked Pad Thai with seafood, but I didn't like it at all( At Zero, my husband had shrimp with sauce; he said it was nothing special, and I had chicken breast baked with herbs, served with a small portion of risotto in a creamy sauce. I loved it immensely. The risotto was delicious, even though there wasn’t much, and the chicken breast was exceptionally tender and not dry) I also want to emphasize the alcohol. All the alcohol is of excellent quality. There’s no rough stuff. All cocktails are tasty, but I liked the piña colada the most, so I mostly had that everywhere)) One time at the Tropicana bar, my husband had a serving of Hennessy, and he said it was fine, not fake. In summary, I’ll say that these were incredible 12 days in an extraordinarily beautiful place. We’ve traveled a lot, but the vacation at Villa Park became the best of all our journeys. I was afraid that I wouldn’t have those “Wow, what water, what beauty!” impressions about the Maldives after Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and especially Mexico, but no! The first reaction was precisely that “Wow!” even with the weather not being sunny in the first days😍 This is not Cuba, not Mexico, not the Dominican Republic, and certainly not Turkey, as some people write🤦‍♀️ Honestly, I just want to roll my eyes at those who say such things🤦‍♀️. On this island, I saw the real Maldives with their stunningly beautiful nature and incredible ocean, the Maldives you see in pictures. I saw that very picture I always looked at and thought: “Could it really be that beautiful, and is this not photoshop?” Yes, indeed, it’s exactly like that. For which I am immensely grateful to Villa Park❤️ Will we return here? Absolutely! Will I recommend this hotel? Of course! It has captured our hearts❤️ and made us fall in love with the beautiful Maldives Islands😍

Hello everyone!😊 Our vacation has come to an end; we returned home the day before yesterday, and I'd like to share my impressions in case it might be helpful to someone. We flew with Emirates with a layover in Dubai (5 hours). The planes were excellent, the onboard food, flight attendants, takeoff, and landing were all great. However, the flight there was very tough for us. We decided that next time we would be better off paying extra for a direct flight or for a flight with a long layover to have the opportunity to rest in a hotel. We first flew 5 hours to Dubai, then had a 5-hour layover, and finally another 4 hours to Male. We arrived in Male right on schedule at 9:15, departed from Male at 13:30, and were on the island at the beginning of the third day) we checked in almost immediately) The return journey was much easier. Our flight was at 18:20, and we were picked up from the hotel at 14:00. We didn't wait anywhere, didn't stop at any other islands; we were taken to the airport when check-in was already in full swing, and by the time we went through all the controls, boarding was announced, and we didn't even have time to stroll around duty-free. Everything was very quick on the return trip) Now, about the vacation itself) Initially, we booked a Deluxe Beach Villa. Upon arrival, we were offered an upgrade to a Beach Villa. The Beach Villa is a lower category than the Deluxe, but the villa we were offered had just been renovated, everything was brand new, and no one had lived there before us. After looking at the old Deluxe and the new Beach Villa, we immediately agreed to the Beach Villa) The room is wonderful, the ocean is just steps away, but the only thing that bothered me was the lack of privacy. Of course, there weren't crowds of people like in Anapa, but you couldn't just go out on the veranda in a towel to sit) So we decided to try to upgrade to a villa with a pool. We had planned this while still in Moscow, but since the surcharge for a room with a pool was huge, we decided to take a risk and try to change it on the spot. It's significantly cheaper, but, of course, without guarantees, as the hotel is always full. At first, there were no available rooms, but on the fourth day, our room was found, and we moved. The upgrade cost was $200 per day. The room is magnificent, large. For two, it seemed incredibly spacious. Excellent access to the ocean, all new furniture, a tropical shower, a bathtub, and what was important to me: privacy. We didn't regret for a moment that we moved there. Even my husband said that here, of course, it’s a different level. Yes, it is a different level, but you need to understand that the price here is also completely different. For the last two nights, we stayed in water villas. The furniture is not new, but everything is clean and neat. The only downside is that the air conditioning is less powerful and noisier, but it didn’t bother us at all. The water villa also left only wonderful impressions. It’s incredibly cool to wake up, step out onto the balcony with a cup of coffee, and see the incredible Indian Ocean right under your feet😍 It’s really great that the island has different categories of rooms; everyone can find a villa to fit their budget. The nature here is the same for all, and it’s beautiful😍. There are no separate zones; you can walk and swim everywhere, which for me is an undeniable plus. I would never choose a hotel where there are restrictions on where you can go with a child and where entry is prohibited. For me, that's too much. But of course, this is purely my subjective opinion; everyone has their preference. Upon arrival, we weren't very lucky with the weather. The first three days were cloudy, and it occasionally rained; on the fourth day, it poured nearly all day. From the fifth day onwards, the weather improved. Now, looking back, I understand that it might even be good that the weather in the first days was not sunny but overcast with a breeze. During those days, we managed to explore the island, walking about 20k steps a day, riding bikes, and in the evenings, we attended evening events. After the weather improved, doing this wasn’t so comfortable anymore) With sunny weather, we swam more, sunbathed, and didn't have the energy for long walks or evening sit-outs)) This is to say that nature doesn’t have bad weather, especially when you're in the Maldives) you can always find your benefits. And yes, by the way, the ever-"beloved" tiles didn’t bother us at all, even after the rain; nobody slipped on them or broke their legs) at least not while we were there)) The Maldives have always been associated with small islands that can be walked around in just 10-15 minutes. This trip was a birthday gift from my husband, and he specifically chose the island. When I started reading information about it and found out that the island is far from small but rather one of the largest, I was secretly a bit disappointed, of course, without telling my husband. But when we arrived on the island, I realized how wrong I was and what a wonderful choice my husband made. Many acquaintances (especially those who have been to the Maldives) ask if we went insane with boredom for 12 days; we all say in unison that no, all the days flew by in a blink of an eye, we could have easily stayed longer)) There’s absolutely no time to be bored here as there are so many activities that everyone can find something to do. There are many restaurants and bars, you can swim and see the fish, ride bikes, enjoy various water activities, go to the spa, play tennis, billiards, badminton, table tennis, and so many more. We tried nearly everything and never had a second where we thought it was a bit boring. After dinner, we collapsed, completely exhausted) The beauty of the island is indescribable. It’s simply extraordinary. There are picture-perfect views at every step. Swings, hammocks, beautiful palms, greenery; you can take photographs literally at every step. The lagoon is incredibly beautiful. I haven't seen such a beautiful color of water anywhere, though I have something to compare it with. We’ve been to Mexico, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and been there more than once. Such extraordinarily beautiful water exists only here. The island is very well-kept; you can tell from the outside how lovingly the staff cares for it. Flying foxes soar above, and there are many herons) In general, beauty at every turn. I don’t know how many times a day I uttered the phrase "What beauty is here!", but I can surely say it was a lot. Sometimes I looked and couldn't believe my eyes that I was indeed seeing all this in reality and not in a dream.😍 We rented bikes for 2 days. The cost is $8 per day. It’s very nice to ride around the island and enjoy all its beauty. The only downside is that the bikes are not very comfortable, and it's better to put something soft under the seat; some put towels)) We also rode on a canoe, which we really enjoyed. I highly recommend the spa; I had a relaxing massage + a flower bath) I came out feeling as if I was reborn and looked ten years younger)) The hands of the masseuse are magical! The spa area itself is very beautiful, clean, green, and large. A small little green corner of paradise.😍 If you’re going to take a flower bath, it’s better to go as a pair so you can take photos there; I was alone, and it was quite difficult to do unless I was just photographing nature around)😄 In the bath itself, they pour various aromatic oils, and it simply relaxes immensely, but no matter how relaxing, I think $100 for 30 minutes is a bit much. We also went fishing. In the evening, they grilled all our catch, and it was very tasty. The only downside is that fishing is very nausea-inducing; we came back with "boiled" heads, and some people got really sick( In the evening, we watched the feeding of the sharks and rays. Such cuties😍. Honestly, when I watched videos on the internet, it didn’t evoke much emotion, but when you see it live, it’s a completely different feeling😍. Sharks come close, both tiny and enormous. Watching them is pure joy. We loved to go in the evenings to the Tropicana bar, sit on the cushions, and watch the sunset. Such a beautiful place. Also, the sandbar is incredible. It's like a magical place. In fact, there are no unbeautiful places on this island😍. About swimming with the fish near the Italian restaurant. We didn’t swim. We kept planning to but just never got there)) We left that for next time) There were plenty of fish along the shore. However, we did see a turtle. In the last days, we lived in a water villa, and it swam up to our villa and lingered there for a long time😍 I squealed with delight like a little child))😄 We went to see the parrots; there are so many, and they are all so beautiful) We also visited a farm where they grow greens and vegetables; everything was very well-maintained♥️ What we didn't do was plant a tree. We left that for the second-to-last day, then just forgot about it and remembered on the day of departure when there was no time left. But it’s okay; it will be an extra reason to return💛 I also want to note the work of the entire island staff. All employees are very friendly; everyone greets you, smiles, wishes you a good day, and if you need something, they always help and advise. And it’s always sincere; I never noticed any falsehood. If any staff member saw my husband and me trying to take a joint photo, they always approached and offered their help)) The waiters in the restaurants were always very attentive as well. Overall, it’s clear that the staff values its guests greatly. They always go out of their way and help with any request. When we first checked into the beach villa, we had no place to dry our clothes effectively. We approached the host Eliza at the reception and asked for either a dryer or perhaps a rope to hang in the bathroom; she replied that she would send a request. We returned to our room just 20 minutes later, and the dryer was already there.👍 For the last two days of our vacation, we booked a water villa on the sunrise side, and they checked us into a villa with a sunset view at no extra charge, even though it was significantly more expensive. That was very pleasant! In the evening, lying on a sunbed, holding a glass of wine in hand, and watching the sun go down is indescribable😍 We ordered breakfast on the water. The price was $170. It was very nice, and everything was extremely tasty, but there was way too much)) For a family with kids, it would be great; for just two of us, it was simply gluttony) we didn’t even finish 1/3, but in any case, we don’t regret it; it was an interesting experience))😄 There are evening events.

And overall, it’s cozier, possibly because there are fewer people. But that doesn’t mean that the main restaurant is bad. Not at all. I’ll repeat that we never went hungry. You need to remember that this is not a luxury hotel but a mid-range hotel, so expecting champagne for breakfast and lobsters for lunch is completely ridiculous. If we wanted something special, we went to one of the à la carte restaurants and ate there. We dined twice at the Italian restaurant, three times at the Thai place, and once at the Zero restaurant) At the Italian place, we ordered carbonara, and I didn’t like it, but the tiramisu, tuna tartare, shrimp pasta, and beef carpaccio were incredibly delicious😍 At the Thai restaurant, we mostly had thermidor lobster; it was divinely tasty🔥, but I didn’t like the grilled lobster. We also had tom yum, which was excellent in our opinion, and we liked the mango ice cream and shrimp tempura. My husband also liked Pad Thai with seafood, but I didn't like it at all( At Zero, my husband had shrimp with sauce; he said it was nothing special, and I had chicken breast baked with herbs, served with a small portion of risotto in a creamy sauce. I loved it immensely. The risotto was delicious, even though there wasn’t much, and the chicken breast was exceptionally tender and not dry) I also want to emphasize the alcohol. All the alcohol is of excellent quality. There’s no rough stuff. All cocktails are tasty, but I liked the piña colada the most, so I mostly had that everywhere)) One time at the Tropicana bar, my husband had a serving of Hennessy, and he said it was fine, not fake. In summary, I’ll say that these were incredible 12 days in an extraordinarily beautiful place. We’ve traveled a lot, but the vacation at Villa Park became the best of all our journeys. I was afraid that I wouldn’t have those “Wow, what water, what beauty!” impressions about the Maldives after Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and especially Mexico, but no! The first reaction was precisely that “Wow!” even with the weather not being sunny in the first days😍 This is not Cuba, not Mexico, not the Dominican Republic, and certainly not Turkey, as some people write🤦‍♀️ Honestly, I just want to roll my eyes at those who say such things🤦‍♀️. On this island, I saw the real Maldives with their stunningly beautiful nature and incredible ocean, the Maldives you see in pictures. I saw that very picture I always looked at and thought: “Could it really be that beautiful, and is this not photoshop?” Yes, indeed, it’s exactly like that. For which I am immensely grateful to Villa Park❤️ Will we return here? Absolutely! Will I recommend this hotel? Of course! It has captured our hearts❤️ and made us fall in love with the beautiful Maldives Islands😍

Hello everyone!😊 Our vacation has come to an end; we returned home the day before yesterday, and I'd like to share my impressions in case it might be helpful to someone. We flew with Emirates with a layover in Dubai (5 hours). The planes were excellent, the onboard food, flight attendants, takeoff, and landing were all great. However, the flight there was very tough for us. We decided that next time we would be better off paying extra for a direct flight or for a flight with a long layover to have the opportunity to rest in a hotel. We first flew 5 hours to Dubai, then had a 5-hour layover, and finally another 4 hours to Male. We arrived in Male right on schedule at 9:15, departed from Male at 13:30, and were on the island at the beginning of the third day) we checked in almost immediately) The return journey was much easier. Our flight was at 18:20, and we were picked up from the hotel at 14:00. We didn't wait anywhere, didn't stop at any other islands; we were taken to the airport when check-in was already in full swing, and by the time we went through all the controls, boarding was announced, and we didn't even have time to stroll around duty-free. Everything was very quick on the return trip) Now, about the vacation itself) Initially, we booked a Deluxe Beach Villa. Upon arrival, we were offered an upgrade to a Beach Villa. The Beach Villa is a lower category than the Deluxe, but the villa we were offered had just been renovated, everything was brand new, and no one had lived there before us. After looking at the old Deluxe and the new Beach Villa, we immediately agreed to the Beach Villa) The room is wonderful, the ocean is just steps away, but the only thing that bothered me was the lack of privacy. Of course, there weren't crowds of people like in Anapa, but you couldn't just go out on the veranda in a towel to sit) So we decided to try to upgrade to a villa with a pool. We had planned this while still in Moscow, but since the surcharge for a room with a pool was huge, we decided to take a risk and try to change it on the spot. It's significantly cheaper, but, of course, without guarantees, as the hotel is always full. At first, there were no available rooms, but on the fourth day, our room was found, and we moved. The upgrade cost was $200 per day. The room is magnificent, large. For two, it seemed incredibly spacious. Excellent access to the ocean, all new furniture, a tropical shower, a bathtub, and what was important to me: privacy. We didn't regret for a moment that we moved there. Even my husband said that here, of course, it’s a different level. Yes, it is a different level, but you need to understand that the price here is also completely different. For the last two nights, we stayed in water villas. The furniture is not new, but everything is clean and neat. The only downside is that the air conditioning is less powerful and noisier, but it didn’t bother us at all. The water villa also left only wonderful impressions. It’s incredibly cool to wake up, step out onto the balcony with a cup of coffee, and see the incredible Indian Ocean right under your feet😍 It’s really great that the island has different categories of rooms; everyone can find a villa to fit their budget. The nature here is the same for all, and it’s beautiful😍. There are no separate zones; you can walk and swim everywhere, which for me is an undeniable plus. I would never choose a hotel where there are restrictions on where you can go with a child and where entry is prohibited. For me, that's too much. But of course, this is purely my subjective opinion; everyone has their preference. Upon arrival, we weren't very lucky with the weather. The first three days were cloudy, and it occasionally rained; on the fourth day, it poured nearly all day. From the fifth day onwards, the weather improved. Now, looking back, I understand that it might even be good that the weather in the first days was not sunny but overcast with a breeze. During those days, we managed to explore the island, walking about 20k steps a day, riding bikes, and in the evenings, we attended evening events. After the weather improved, doing this wasn’t so comfortable anymore) With sunny weather, we swam more, sunbathed, and didn't have the energy for long walks or evening sit-outs)) This is to say that nature doesn’t have bad weather, especially when you're in the Maldives) you can always find your benefits. And yes, by the way, the ever-"beloved" tiles didn’t bother us at all, even after the rain; nobody slipped on them or broke their legs) at least not while we were there)) The Maldives have always been associated with small islands that can be walked around in just 10-15 minutes. This trip was a birthday gift from my husband, and he specifically chose the island. When I started reading information about it and found out that the island is far from small but rather one of the largest, I was secretly a bit disappointed, of course, without telling my husband. But when we arrived on the island, I realized how wrong I was and what a wonderful choice my husband made. Many acquaintances (especially those who have been to the Maldives) ask if we went insane with boredom for 12 days; we all say in unison that no, all the days flew by in a blink of an eye, we could have easily stayed longer)) There’s absolutely no time to be bored here as there are so many activities that everyone can find something to do. There are many restaurants and bars, you can swim and see the fish, ride bikes, enjoy various water activities, go to the spa, play tennis, billiards, badminton, table tennis, and so many more. We tried nearly everything and never had a second where we thought it was a bit boring. After dinner, we collapsed, completely exhausted) The beauty of the island is indescribable. It’s simply extraordinary. There are picture-perfect views at every step. Swings, hammocks, beautiful palms, greenery; you can take photographs literally at every step. The lagoon is incredibly beautiful. I haven't seen such a beautiful color of water anywhere, though I have something to compare it with. We’ve been to Mexico, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and been there more than once. Such extraordinarily beautiful water exists only here. The island is very well-kept; you can tell from the outside how lovingly the staff cares for it. Flying foxes soar above, and there are many herons) In general, beauty at every turn. I don’t know how many times a day I uttered the phrase "What beauty is here!", but I can surely say it was a lot. Sometimes I looked and couldn't believe my eyes that I was indeed seeing all this in reality and not in a dream.😍 We rented bikes for 2 days. The cost is $8 per day. It’s very nice to ride around the island and enjoy all its beauty. The only downside is that the bikes are not very comfortable, and it's better to put something soft under the seat; some put towels)) We also rode on a canoe, which we really enjoyed. I highly recommend the spa; I had a relaxing massage + a flower bath) I came out feeling as if I was reborn and looked ten years younger)) The hands of the masseuse are magical! The spa area itself is very beautiful, clean, green, and large. A small little green corner of paradise.😍 If you’re going to take a flower bath, it’s better to go as a pair so you can take photos there; I was alone, and it was quite difficult to do unless I was just photographing nature around)😄 In the bath itself, they pour various aromatic oils, and it simply relaxes immensely, but no matter how relaxing, I think $100 for 30 minutes is a bit much. We also went fishing. In the evening, they grilled all our catch, and it was very tasty. The only downside is that fishing is very nausea-inducing; we came back with "boiled" heads, and some people got really sick( In the evening, we watched the feeding of the sharks and rays. Such cuties😍. Honestly, when I watched videos on the internet, it didn’t evoke much emotion, but when you see it live, it’s a completely different feeling😍. Sharks come close, both tiny and enormous. Watching them is pure joy. We loved to go in the evenings to the Tropicana bar, sit on the cushions, and watch the sunset. Such a beautiful place. Also, the sandbar is incredible. It's like a magical place. In fact, there are no unbeautiful places on this island😍. About swimming with the fish near the Italian restaurant. We didn’t swim. We kept planning to but just never got there)) We left that for next time) There were plenty of fish along the shore. However, we did see a turtle. In the last days, we lived in a water villa, and it swam up to our villa and lingered there for a long time😍 I squealed with delight like a little child))😄 We went to see the parrots; there are so many, and they are all so beautiful) We also visited a farm where they grow greens and vegetables; everything was very well-maintained♥️ What we didn't do was plant a tree. We left that for the second-to-last day, then just forgot about it and remembered on the day of departure when there was no time left. But it’s okay; it will be an extra reason to return💛 I also want to note the work of the entire island staff. All employees are very friendly; everyone greets you, smiles, wishes you a good day, and if you need something, they always help and advise. And it’s always sincere; I never noticed any falsehood. If any staff member saw my husband and me trying to take a joint photo, they always approached and offered their help)) The waiters in the restaurants were always very attentive as well. Overall, it’s clear that the staff values its guests greatly. They always go out of their way and help with any request. When we first checked into the beach villa, we had no place to dry our clothes effectively. We approached the host Eliza at the reception and asked for either a dryer or perhaps a rope to hang in the bathroom; she replied that she would send a request. We returned to our room just 20 minutes later, and the dryer was already there.👍 For the last two days of our vacation, we booked a water villa on the sunrise side, and they checked us into a villa with a sunset view at no extra charge, even though it was significantly more expensive. That was very pleasant! In the evening, lying on a sunbed, holding a glass of wine in hand, and watching the sun go down is indescribable😍 We ordered breakfast on the water. The price was $170. It was very nice, and everything was extremely tasty, but there was way too much)) For a family with kids, it would be great; for just two of us, it was simply gluttony) we didn’t even finish 1/3, but in any case, we don’t regret it; it was an interesting experience))😄 There are evening events. They hold fire shows, beauty contests, and you can simply listen to live music; each bar has its own unique offerings, and once a week there's a disco. My husband and I went out of curiosity. Unfortunately, there were no Russian songs)) I was really hoping for "Gray Night," which they love to play at Villa Park, but I didn’t get it)😂 In general, I want to note that similar disco parties are arranged at almost every hotel, but for some reason only Villa Park gets criticized for it. Before the vacation, I read many threads in this price category, and practically in each one, there is a video with Russian songs playing at the discos. In my opinion, holding such parties once a week for variety is excellent. Nobody forces anyone to go; if you want, you go/if you don’t want, you don’t. The most important thing is that they take place in a bar that is far from the rooms, so it doesn’t disturb anyone, and they don’t last all night but for just 2 hours) We didn’t see any mosquitoes or fleas. On the first day, we used insect repellent, and then we stopped. Not a single bite. We didn't need any medicines either) But of course, it’s better to bring everything just in case and be prepared for anything) As for the food. We spent most of our vacation eating in the main restaurant. Yes, there weren’t any delicacies; I saw shrimp with rice a few times, a kind of plov with shrimp) There are no delicacies, but we never went hungry; there was always something to eat. There was always fish, meat, and chicken. The fruits included apples, melons, watermelons, very tasty oranges, delicious pineapples, and my favorite papaya😍 I didn't see mango at all, and there was no mango in the water villas' restaurant either. But for me, it wasn’t a problem because I can easily find tasty mango in Moscow, whereas I can’t find good papaya no matter how I search in Moscow. So I ate it to my heart's content there))😄 If we compare the regular restaurant and the water villas' restaurant, I agree with those who say that the food there is better. The variety isn’t vastly different, but it is more. They make pasta for you on the spot with various toppings, there are more types of cheese, more ice cream options, and I also saw pomegranates and passion fruit, which weren’t in the regular restaurant.

I saw that very picture I always looked at and thought: “Could it really be that beautiful, and is this not photoshop?” Yes, indeed, it’s exactly like that. For which I am immensely grateful to Villa Park❤️ Will we return here? Absolutely! Will I recommend this hotel? Of course! It has captured our hearts❤️ and made us fall in love with the beautiful Maldives Islands😍

Hello everyone!😊 Our vacation has come to an end; we returned home the day before yesterday, and I'd like to share my impressions in case it might be helpful to someone. We flew with Emirates with a layover in Dubai (5 hours). The planes were excellent, the onboard food, flight attendants, takeoff, and landing were all great. However, the flight there was very tough for us. We decided that next time we would be better off paying extra for a direct flight or for a flight with a long layover to have the opportunity to rest in a hotel. We first flew 5 hours to Dubai, then had a 5-hour layover, and finally another 4 hours to Male. We arrived in Male right on schedule at 9:15, departed from Male at 13:30, and were on the island at the beginning of the third day) we checked in almost immediately) The return journey was much easier. Our flight was at 18:20, and we were picked up from the hotel at 14:00. We didn't wait anywhere, didn't stop at any other islands; we were taken to the airport when check-in was already in full swing, and by the time we went through all the controls, boarding was announced, and we didn't even have time to stroll around duty-free. Everything was very quick on the return trip) Now, about the vacation itself) Initially, we booked a Deluxe Beach Villa. Upon arrival, we were offered an upgrade to a Beach Villa. The Beach Villa is a lower category than the Deluxe, but the villa we were offered had just been renovated, everything was brand new, and no one had lived there before us. After looking at the old Deluxe and the new Beach Villa, we immediately agreed to the Beach Villa) The room is wonderful, the ocean is just steps away, but the only thing that bothered me was the lack of privacy. Of course, there weren't crowds of people like in Anapa, but you couldn't just go out on the veranda in a towel to sit) So we decided to try to upgrade to a villa with a pool. We had planned this while still in Moscow, but since the surcharge for a room with a pool was huge, we decided to take a risk and try to change it on the spot. It's significantly cheaper, but, of course, without guarantees, as the hotel is always full. At first, there were no available rooms, but on the fourth day, our room was found, and we moved. The upgrade cost was $200 per day. The room is magnificent, large. For two, it seemed incredibly spacious. Excellent access to the ocean, all new furniture, a tropical shower, a bathtub, and what was important to me: privacy. We didn't regret for a moment that we moved there. Even my husband said that here, of course, it’s a different level. Yes, it is a different level, but you need to understand that the price here is also completely different. For the last two nights, we stayed in water villas. The furniture is not new, but everything is clean and neat. The only downside is that the air conditioning is less powerful and noisier, but it didn’t bother us at all. The water villa also left only wonderful impressions. It’s incredibly cool to wake up, step out onto the balcony with a cup of coffee, and see the incredible Indian Ocean right under your feet😍 It’s really great that the island has different categories of rooms; everyone can find a villa to fit their budget. The nature here is the same for all, and it’s beautiful😍. There are no separate zones; you can walk and swim everywhere, which for me is an undeniable plus. I would never choose a hotel where there are restrictions on where you can go with a child and where entry is prohibited. For me, that's too much. But of course, this is purely my subjective opinion; everyone has their preference. Upon arrival, we weren't very lucky with the weather. The first three days were cloudy, and it occasionally rained; on the fourth day, it poured nearly all day. From the fifth day onwards, the weather improved. Now, looking back, I understand that it might even be good that the weather in the first days was not sunny but overcast with a breeze. During those days, we managed to explore the island, walking about 20k steps a day, riding bikes, and in the evenings, we attended evening events. After the weather improved, doing this wasn’t so comfortable anymore) With sunny weather, we swam more, sunbathed, and didn't have the energy for long walks or evening sit-outs)) This is to say that nature doesn’t have bad weather, especially when you're in the Maldives) you can always find your benefits. And yes, by the way, the ever-"beloved" tiles didn’t bother us at all, even after the rain; nobody slipped on them or broke their legs) at least not while we were there)) The Maldives have always been associated with small islands that can be walked around in just 10-15 minutes. This trip was a birthday gift from my husband, and he specifically chose the island. When I started reading information about it and found out that the island is far from small but rather one of the largest, I was secretly a bit disappointed, of course, without telling my husband. But when we arrived on the island, I realized how wrong I was and what a wonderful choice my husband made. Many acquaintances (especially those who have been to the Maldives) ask if we went insane with boredom for 12 days; we all say in unison that no, all the days flew by in a blink of an eye, we could have easily stayed longer)) There’s absolutely no time to be bored here as there are so many activities that everyone can find something to do. There are many restaurants and bars, you can swim and see the fish, ride bikes, enjoy various water activities, go to the spa, play tennis, billiards, badminton, table tennis, and so many more. We tried nearly everything and never had a second where we thought it was a bit boring. After dinner, we collapsed, completely exhausted) The beauty of the island is indescribable. It’s simply extraordinary. There are picture-perfect views at every step. Swings, hammocks, beautiful palms, greenery; you can take photographs literally at every step. The lagoon is incredibly beautiful. I haven't seen such a beautiful color of water anywhere, though I have something to compare it with. We’ve been to Mexico, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and been there more than once. Such extraordinarily beautiful water exists only here. The island is very well-kept; you can tell from the outside how lovingly the staff cares for it. Flying foxes soar above, and there are many herons) In general, beauty at every turn. I don’t know how many times a day I uttered the phrase "What beauty is here!", but I can surely say it was a lot. Sometimes I looked and couldn't believe my eyes that I was indeed seeing all this in reality and not in a dream.😍 We rented bikes for 2 days. The cost is $8 per day. It’s very nice to ride around the island and enjoy all its beauty. The only downside is that the bikes are not very comfortable, and it's better to put something soft under the seat; some put towels)) We also rode on a canoe, which we really enjoyed. I highly recommend the spa; I had a relaxing massage + a flower bath) I came out feeling as if I was reborn and looked ten years younger)) The hands of the masseuse are magical! The spa area itself is very beautiful, clean, green, and large. A small little green corner of paradise.😍 If you’re going to take a flower bath, it’s better to go as a pair so you can take photos there; I was alone, and it was quite difficult to do unless I was just photographing nature around)😄 In the bath itself, they pour various aromatic oils, and it simply relaxes immensely, but no matter how relaxing, I think $100 for 30 minutes is a bit much. We also went fishing. In the evening, they grilled all our catch, and it was very tasty. The only downside is that fishing is very nausea-inducing; we came back with "boiled" heads, and some people got really sick( In the evening, we watched the feeding of the sharks and rays. Such cuties😍. Honestly, when I watched videos on the internet, it didn’t evoke much emotion, but when you see it live, it’s a completely different feeling😍. Sharks come close, both tiny and enormous. Watching them is pure joy. We loved to go in the evenings to the Tropicana bar, sit on the cushions, and watch the sunset. Such a beautiful place. Also, the sandbar is incredible. It's like a magical place. In fact, there are no unbeautiful places on this island😍. About swimming with the fish near the Italian restaurant. We didn’t swim. We kept planning to but just never got there)) We left that for next time) There were plenty of fish along the shore. However, we did see a turtle. In the last days, we lived in a water villa, and it swam up to our villa and lingered there for a long time😍 I squealed with delight like a little child))😄 We went to see the parrots; there are so many, and they are all so beautiful) We also visited a farm where they grow greens and vegetables; everything was very well-maintained♥️ What we didn't do was plant a tree. We left that for the second-to-last day, then just forgot about it and remembered on the day of departure when there was no time left. But it’s okay; it will be an extra reason to return💛 I also want to note the work of the entire island staff. All employees are very friendly; everyone greets you, smiles, wishes you a good day, and if you need something, they always help and advise. And it’s always sincere; I never noticed any falsehood. If any staff member saw my husband and me trying to take a joint photo, they always approached and offered their help)) The waiters in the restaurants were always very attentive as well. Overall, it’s clear that the staff values its guests greatly. They always go out of their way and help with any request. When we first checked into the beach villa, we had no place to dry our clothes effectively. We approached the host Eliza at the reception and asked for either a dryer or perhaps a rope to hang in the bathroom; she replied that she would send a request. We returned to our room just 20 minutes later, and the dryer was already there.👍 For the last two days of our vacation, we booked a water villa on the sunrise side, and they checked us into a villa with a sunset view at no extra charge, even though it was significantly more expensive. That was very pleasant! In the evening, lying on a sunbed, holding a glass of wine in hand, and watching the sun go down is indescribable😍 We ordered breakfast on the water. The price was $170. It was very nice, and everything was extremely tasty, but there was way too much)) For a family with kids, it would be great; for just two of us, it was simply gluttony) we didn’t even finish 1/3, but in any case, we don’t regret it; it was an interesting experience))😄 There are evening events. They hold fire shows, beauty contests, and you can simply listen to live music; each bar has its own unique offerings, and once a week there's a disco. My husband and I went out of curiosity. Unfortunately, there were no Russian songs)) I was really hoping for "Gray Night," which they love to play at Villa Park, but I didn’t get it)😂 In general, I want to note that similar disco parties are arranged at almost every hotel, but for some reason only Villa Park gets criticized for it. Before the vacation, I read many threads in this price category, and practically in each one, there is a video with Russian songs playing at the discos. In my opinion, holding such parties once a week for variety is excellent. Nobody forces anyone to go; if you want, you go/if you don’t want, you don’t. The most important thing is that they take place in a bar that is far from the rooms, so it doesn’t disturb anyone, and they don’t last all night but for just 2 hours) We didn’t see any mosquitoes or fleas. On the first day, we used insect repellent, and then we stopped. Not a single bite. We didn't need any medicines either) But of course, it’s better to bring everything just in case and be prepared for anything) As for the food. We spent most of our vacation eating in the main restaurant. Yes, there weren’t any delicacies; I saw shrimp with rice a few times, a kind of plov with shrimp) There are no delicacies, but we never went hungry; there was always something to eat. There was always fish, meat, and chicken. The fruits included apples, melons, watermelons, very tasty oranges, delicious pineapples, and my favorite papaya😍 I didn't see mango at all, and there was no mango in the water villas' restaurant either. But for me, it wasn’t a problem because I can easily find tasty mango in Moscow, whereas I can’t find good papaya no matter how I search in Moscow. So I ate it to my heart's content there))😄 If we compare the regular restaurant and the water villas' restaurant, I agree with those who say that the food there is better. The variety isn’t vastly different, but it is more. They make pasta for you on the spot with various toppings, there are more types of cheese, more ice cream options, and I also saw pomegranates and passion fruit, which weren’t in the regular restaurant. And overall, it’s cozier, possibly because there are fewer people. But that doesn’t mean that the main restaurant is bad. Not at all. I’ll repeat that we never went hungry. You need to remember that this is not a luxury hotel but a mid-range hotel, so expecting champagne for breakfast and lobsters for lunch is completely ridiculous. If we wanted something special, we went to one of the à la carte restaurants and ate there. We dined twice at the Italian restaurant, three times at the Thai place, and once at the Zero restaurant) At the Italian place, we ordered carbonara, and I didn’t like it, but the tiramisu, tuna tartare, shrimp pasta, and beef carpaccio were incredibly delicious😍 At the Thai restaurant, we mostly had thermidor lobster; it was divinely tasty🔥, but I didn’t like the grilled lobster. We also had tom yum, which was excellent in our opinion, and we liked the mango ice cream and shrimp tempura. My husband also liked Pad Thai with seafood, but I didn't like it at all( At Zero, my husband had shrimp with sauce; he said it was nothing special, and I had chicken breast baked with herbs, served with a small portion of risotto in a creamy sauce. I loved it immensely. The risotto was delicious, even though there wasn’t much, and the chicken breast was exceptionally tender and not dry) I also want to emphasize the alcohol. All the alcohol is of excellent quality. There’s no rough stuff. All cocktails are tasty, but I liked the piña colada the most, so I mostly had that everywhere)) One time at the Tropicana bar, my husband had a serving of Hennessy, and he said it was fine, not fake. In summary, I’ll say that these were incredible 12 days in an extraordinarily beautiful place. We’ve traveled a lot, but the vacation at Villa Park became the best of all our journeys. I was afraid that I wouldn’t have those “Wow, what water, what beauty!” impressions about the Maldives after Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and especially Mexico, but no! The first reaction was precisely that “Wow!” even with the weather not being sunny in the first days😍 This is not Cuba, not Mexico, not the Dominican Republic, and certainly not Turkey, as some people write🤦‍♀️ Honestly, I just want to roll my eyes at those who say such things🤦‍♀️. On this island, I saw the real Maldives with their stunningly beautiful nature and incredible ocean, the Maldives you see in pictures.

It's my turn to write a review 😊. We flew with Gulf Air, and they arranged a hotel at the airport. I really liked the hotel + meal vouchers (we ate at Burger King). We arrived at the hotel at 10:10. We booked the deluxe beach, and for 2 days they gave us a free upgrade to Laguna Pool, we liked it so much that we decided to stay there. As usual, everything in the hotel was wonderful 😊, this is our third time at the hotel and you know, the positive emotions are three times more 😊☺️. New acquaintances, we met friends from Germany (we got to know them at VP in 2023). Everyone at the hotel welcomed us like family, recognized us, and were genuinely happy to see us 😊. For the first time in 3 years, we saw a manta ray up close; there were overwhelming emotions 😍😍😍. There were mosquito bites (but not many, about 5-6), for the first 4 days I applied citronella oil on myself and my family, then I forgot 😂😂😂. We flew back through Larnaca, which took 3 hours longer than planned. On the way back, we stayed overnight in Bahrain and were given a Ramada hotel in the city. We got an apartment 😊, with a kitchen, living room, and 2 bedrooms, a good breakfast. Will we return?? Definitely!!!!!! We don't go for food, with the "pillow" menu and so on 😂😂😂. We go for experiences, communication, and to admire the beautiful paradise views.

Our next paradise vacation at the hotel has come to an end. The island is a fairy tale, the island is a dream. Don't believe those who say that nature and the ocean are the same everywhere in the Maldives. No! This place is unique in its beauty! In other words - it's hard to find anything more beautiful) And as for the energy of the legendary Sanu, I won't even go there. Yes, not everyone can feel it. But many know what I'm talking about, and that’s why they keep coming back again and again. Yes, the hotel is not about luxury. There are no trained staff here. And thank God for that! There are people here who put their hearts into their work and share a piece of their soul. Everyone - from the janitor to the chef. If you need a polished staff, you shouldn't come here; this island is about something else. And we want to return here again and again. I am happy that my children fly here every time, as they say, "to our sea," to our favorite waiters, room boys, and buggy drivers, bringing them gifts and receiving heartfelt presents in return. This is not just a hotel, not just another beautiful building with comfortable beds and pillows, where there is a blue ocean and palm trees. This place has a wonderful wildlife, incredible beauty, and amazing people. It's priceless. This island is a living organism. It can be endlessly explored and discovered from new perspectives every time. About the food. Yes, it doesn't have great gastronomic delicacies; everything is simple, but so delicious that after indulging in restaurant feasts, it is valued even more! The fish and meat are very tasty, the freshest greens from the garden, and the most delicious vegetables and fruits. And then there are the stereotypes. For us, a vacation at the hotel is always as private, quiet, and serene as possible. Classic Maldives; there is something to compare it to. In the ocean near our room, we often swam alone for hours! But for those who want a more active pastime, their vacation is richly diversified - there is a huge selection for people with different tastes. Everyone finds their own, and no one disturbs each other. And that is why every vacation at Villa Park becomes unique and unforgettable!

This is not just a hotel, not just another beautiful building with comfortable beds and pillows, where there is a blue ocean and palm trees. This place has a wonderful wildlife, incredible beauty, and amazing people. It's priceless. This island is a living organism. It can be endlessly explored and discovered from new perspectives every time. About the food. Yes, it doesn't have great gastronomic delicacies; everything is simple, but so delicious that after indulging in restaurant feasts, it is valued even more! The fish and meat are very tasty, the freshest greens from the garden, and the most delicious vegetables and fruits. And then there are the stereotypes. For us, a vacation at the hotel is always as private, quiet, and serene as possible. Classic Maldives; there is something to compare it to. In the ocean near our room, we often swam alone for hours! But for those who want a more active pastime, their vacation is richly diversified - there is a huge selection for people with different tastes. Everyone finds their own, and no one disturbs each other. And that is why every vacation at Villa Park becomes unique and unforgettable!

Our next paradise vacation at the hotel has come to an end. The island is a fairy tale, the island is a dream.

But many know what I'm talking about, and that’s why they keep coming back again and again. Yes, the hotel is not about luxury. There are no trained staff here. And thank God for that!

We stayed at Villa Park for 8 days. A wonderful place, I recommend it to anyone planning their first trip to the Maldives. We initially booked a deluxe beach villa, but for the first two days, we were placed in a lagoon beach villa. We decided to stay in it. The extra charge was $75 per day. We asked to see our original villa during the change, and it left a sad impression. We think they specifically showed us the very last one in line so that we wouldn't change our minds. For leisure, I recommend renting bicycles, which cost $7 per day. If you enjoy active recreation, it will be very useful since the island is large, and there are many places to explore. We visited the bird farm, the spit, and explored all the nooks and crannies. The beach near the spit is wonderful, and there's a bar nearby. For excursions, we took a dolphin tour, $79 per person (we were lucky and saw a lot), and a sunset fishing trip, which was included in the package (we were less lucky here, caught nothing, but the guys with us caught various fish). Also, if possible, I recommend all-inclusive, as alcohol is very expensive, but there are many other benefits (free snorkeling equipment, canoe rental, sauna and jacuzzi rental, it pays for itself many times over). We were lucky with the weather; upon arrival, there was a tropical downpour for about 20 minutes, then every day was sunny, with rain twice for 15 minutes. The day before our departure (yesterday), the wind picked up, and the sky was overcast more than usual. Today, everything has been gray from morning until our departure; overall, it depends on how lucky you are.

We stayed at Villa Park for 8 days. A wonderful place, I recommend it to anyone planning their first trip to the Maldives. We initially booked a deluxe beach villa, but for the first two days, we were placed in a lagoon beach villa. We decided to stay in it. The extra charge was $75 per day. We asked to see our original villa during the change, and it left a sad impression. We think they specifically showed us the very last one in line so that we wouldn't change our minds. For leisure, I recommend renting bicycles, which cost $7 per day. If you enjoy active recreation, it will be very useful since the island is large, and there are many places to explore. We visited the bird farm, the spit, and explored all the nooks and crannies. The beach near the spit is wonderful, and there's a bar nearby. For excursions, we took a dolphin tour, $79 per person (we were lucky and saw a lot), and a sunset fishing trip, which was included in the package (we were less lucky here, caught nothing, but the guys with us caught various fish). Also, if possible, I recommend all-inclusive, as alcohol is very expensive, but there are many other benefits (free snorkeling equipment, canoe rental, sauna and jacuzzi rental, it pays for itself many times over). We were lucky with the weather; upon arrival, there was a tropical downpour for about 20 minutes, then every day was sunny, with rain twice for 15 minutes.

Overall, everything here is very nice. The photos and videos are from dinner at the Italian restaurant.

We moved today. We were offered a water villa instead of a deluxe room, and we accepted 😃 Yes, it's a new interesting experience) Before this, I had never stayed in a water villa. The furniture is a bit worn out, of course, but everything is in working condition. If we had arrived right away, instead of after the renovated villas, it wouldn't have stood out so much)) Although we had previously lived in renovated room 271, even there some things had already started to wear out… As for the entry: we have only swum during low tide, almost everywhere it's up to our thighs/waist (we are tall). There are a lot of "cucumbers" during low tide; when I was going down, I accidentally squished one, and it put on quite a show.

Good morning! Most of the beach villas have a good view from the room, but the access is only good for those closest to the water villas. There are literally 5-6 rooms (391-396) located near the water with good access. The others are situated further away from the water - the larger the villa number, the further it is from the water.
