8/10 Very good

A truly lovely resort, but it has a number of shortcomings. I had a villa with pool and it was spectacular! Truly lovely. Took 2 days to get used to the outdoor bathroom, but it's safe. Things to note: You cannot order an alcoholic beverage for in-villa dining (except beer), but you can order a bottle @ ~3x the cost. (e.g. gin $135-$160 a bottle; JD $175; grey goose $210!). Get duty-free before you get to the island, if you can. There is no beach service except at the bar pools. My villa was right on the beach with a private pool, but I had to go to one of the bars. Kinda defeated the purpose, for me. In-villa dining is kinda bad (improperly seared tuna; bitter lettuce; horrible scrimpy chicken sandwich), and if they are busy with breakfast, 5 or 6 calls will still not guarantee they answer. Please check departure time against number of nights charged. I had a departure at 1:45 am on Friday, thus was at the airport at 8 pm on Thursday (late night boats not available, and that's the only way to the island). Nonetheless, because my flight was after midnight, they charged me for 6 nights instead of 5. Not sure if that was their fault or Expedia. Either way, it sucked. Most of the staff are friendly and efficient, though smiles are hard to come by. (It may be a cultural thing.) Clovie at check-in was OK but not warm and welcoming. My housekeeper, Abdullah, was FABULOUS!! Kinda shy, but always pleasant and helpful.

We were there to celebrate our 5th anniversary and had a wonderful holiday. It was a very calm and quiet place for a getaway. We stayed in one of the Grand Water Villas with private pool. They decorated our room on our anniversary day, gave us a beautiful cake, a bottle of red wine and a bucket of fresh fruits and organised a lovely candle light dinner for us which was a nice gesture. Housekeeping was top notch. All the hospitality staff had a welcoming smile on their face. We enjoyed free Kayaking, watching marine lives and ofcourse the their mouthwatering multi cuisine buffet foods. Highly recommended for anyone whoever wants a memorable holiday!!

We had the best beach villa upstairs. Room 151. I think the only better villa was next door with a little pool. We got the breeze & it was a heaven, like the aircon. It was very hot, so we were thankful. Amazing, huge outdoor bathroom with privacy wall. Outdoor shower, & bath. Bed was very comfy. By far the best was our houseboy, Noor. He was brilliant, a master at towel art & decoration. He would come twice a day to clean & make or turndown the bed. The buggy service to reception or other islands was great. Runs every 10 minutes. Farnoza & CJ at reception were wonderful. Misa at the jewellery store was lovely and gave us exceptional prices. The girls and guys at the spa were excellent. The Thai & Indian restaurants were to die for. The resort is so well run, when you get bored, explore two more islands, unless you have kids, one island is adults only. They have different restaurants and pools. The water-sports are second to none. The main restaurant on our island was a fabulous all you can eat buffet. Did the 1/2 board cause we only eat twice a day and it was enough for us. Yogesh, Francis, Ravi and the chefs and waiters are great. The resort even have guys that clean the seaweed off the beach multiple times a day so its always pristine white. Nothing is too much trouble. The only improvement is if they had an ATM for USD. Reception can only give $100/day. Beware the giftshop. Hair care and sunscreen are expensive. I paid $68 a bottle for shampoo & conditioner.

The water villa experience was ultimate. However, this is not value for money spent for a single day visit and don't get time to enjoy the lavish morning breakfast the next day as you have early morning boat transfer.

My wife and I stayed at 3 different properties in the Maldives. Sun Siyam Olhuveli's grand water villa was definitely the most modern and the deck was the most spacious. It is an expansive property made up of 3 islands which may not be to everyone's liking. They have golf carts going from early in the morning to late at night so it is not a problem. We stayed on Dream Island. If we went back we would stay on the adult only True Blue Romance Island. You can still walk from Dream to True Blue in less than 10 minutes and use the adult only pool which we did daily. The staff is friendly. Big shout out to the waiter at the pool Pradeep. He made our stay at Olhuveli one to remember.

6/10 Good

First I want to say the staff is very rude. We went for our honeymoon and it was almost ruined. Shuttles will not stop for you. Even when it’s pitch black at night they expect you to walk around the huge resort site. They are constantly saying no we do go to this area when it’s on the same resort. My husband wanted to jet ski and was given a hard time. We stayed in a over water villa and the beds were so hard. I would wake up literally in aching pains. Breakfast staff is great in sunset bar but other places where buffet will not restock the buffet and if you ask for something the answer is no. The speedboat ride was very scary. However, the property is clean. Can drinks are $6.00 in the room. Food is poor we could only eat breakfast and sometimes the pizza bar. The resort is beautiful we just made the best out of it. Also, we did enjoy our honeymoon dinner provided at island pizza.

The staff was very friendly, whether it was room service, restaurants or reception. Very friendly. I have to say that once we were in are room, it was very confusing on how to book activites or reservations for meals. The excursion that we took was for snorkeling and it was literally a 20 minute boat ride, 25 minutes of snorkeling and 20 min ride back. That was disappointing. All inclusive should include more that 25 minute snorkle excursion. Food wasn't what i thought it would. Should be more seafood.
