Total praktisch und schön
very pleasant overall! Great bungalows with open air jacuzzi (premium beach villa), really friendly staff, currently no construction on the island. Everything looks new. Good evening entertainment, Great housereef with a great variety of fish, sharks and rays. Food OK in the half board meal plan, the totally overpriced 15 min boat transfer from the airport is unfortunately Maldives standard and cannot be avoided.

Value for Money Hotel.
I dont see any reason why one would opt to spend more when here in Bandos you get everything at a much lower price than others. Also all the staffs were amazing and friendly. If i would suggest something to improve.. It would be to make the wifi stronger and also to add an Adult Only pool. Also having bikes would be nice.
