South Male Atoll Hotels with Adjoining Rooms

"My partner and I have just returned from a 5 night stay at the Ozen Life Maadhoo resort. I can honestly say that the entire Ozen life team are super well trained as the service was excellent from start to finish. All the staff, no matter what their position were so welcoming and helpful. Unfortunately I didn't get everyone's names , however every waiter, waitress, barman, bar-women , butler , chef , room cleaners, boat staff, gym staff , spa staff etc were excellent. I want to particularly call out that as I'm the awkward one, being a vegan, the chefs picked up on this quickly and did everything to ensure that I was catered for. The head chef also ensured that no matter which restaurant I ate at , I would be looked after. The resort is super well catered for and is perfect for families with a lot to do to keep all family members entertained. We absolutely loved the underwater restaurant . The Indonesian restaurant was also superb . The buffet restaurant was also amazing every day. The service is honestly 5 star and surpassed most of the other 5 star hotels we stayed in on our 3 week December trip. The only one comment which is nothing to do with the staff / service is that the whole resort is a little tired ( after being open for years) and compared to other 5 star hotels, is behind on their interiors."

"Great hotel, from the warm welcome to last farewell everything was smooth and highly enjoyable. We loved the fact the whole island is set in lush greenery and i feels very private despite full occupancy. Staff is extremely friendly and helpfull. We stayed on half board basis and there was always something to choose from. I am sure there are better resorts for snorkeling but if you you are patient you find some good marine life as well (we did snorkel on the surf beach behind the reception) which we later discovered we were not supposed to do but it was the best. One thing I’d consider a downside is the restrictions that may feel ovewhelming, like the kids club that only allows playstation for kids only between noon and 2pm, swimming pool opened only till 6pm and the use or only certain beaches for snorkeling."
