Great holiday destination, just like the photos. Staff were friendly and polite and not very chatty. The rooms and resort were immaculate.
Excellent place for honeymooners. Bluest skies and brilliant turquoise beaches. Friendly, helpful and very polite staff. It's recommended to take the all inclusive package. The restaurants were good with a wide variety at the buffet. Cuisines from across the world were severed. The resort is very clean and well maintained with loads of greenery. The Deluxe Water Villa, rooms are spacious and clean. Free WiFi is provided, the snacks and drinks in the fridge are re-filled every day.
We had the most amazing time here for our honeymoon! The staff are all very friendly and approachable. The restaurants here all serve up really good food, the Thai restaurant is our favourite out of all of them.
The view from our over-water bungalow is just stunning. Highly recommend to get the all-inclusive package as well, as you get pretty good selection of cocktails.
Overall an excellent 5 star resort. Almost everything is perfect.
Cleaning
Hospitality
The beaches
They address any problems swiftly
Water activities are good but have to be improved
Food and drinks are decent but no much varieties
We spent a very memorable honeymoon experience there, I would highly recommend it.
A cozy and nice resort island with a cool pool and great flora.
It provides an option of the lunch trip, which includes snorkeling, paddle boating, kayaking and tasty lunch. Not much space but it used with taste.
One of the best resort in Maldives :)
The service, the view, the staff, amenities everything is perfect.
You would love if you spend couple of days for vacation here.
The water villas will add more colour to your stay and make your holidays perfect.
If you are looking this resort as an option just go for it. You will not regret.
Overall very nice place , I do think it could do with some shade on the balcony of the water villas I.E umbrella.the mini bar in the villas only supplied 2 beers and soft drinks daily but we feel there should be wine for the ladies. You was allowed to take drinks back to your room but you get charged 1dollar for the cardboard cups even under the all inclusive package but we felt having the water villa we would like to spend more time there but the men only had 2 beers and the ladies had nothing they do supply toiletries but also supply SPF 20 suncream which was a very nice extra touch.
Waterville must stay for anyone. Amazing location and you get to see wide variety of sea creatures. Also good options to choose from when it comes to food.
We went on our honeymoon and stayed in Delux Ocean Spa Water villa. Our stay including food and drinks was awesome and one should visit Maldives once in there lifetime.
You will remember this for rest of your life. One thing which I would like to add was food 🥘 as I heard before going that food will be an big issue there, but reality was totally different as Food was one of the best things which I want to remember.
Food, Drinks , Pool side masti 😍
I have also clicked some beautiful shots please do watch pics.
Great resort, great staff, great food. What more can I say? Do be careful what time of year you come out. When it's the rainy season it can really rain, and ALL day!
Good experience overall. Buffet food was disappointing Don't have something for everyone (limited for good vegetarian options). Restaurant food was great Recommend doing that every night as a 3 course meal is included with half board. No need to book all inclusive unless you're planning to drink a lot.
Fantastic resort , expensive but you see what you are paying for in the food, wine and surroundingsTip make sure you do a all inclusive package well worth it.
My wife and I were on our honeymoon and our first time in Maldives which was 16+ hours of flying time from Boston, MA
A short boat ride from the airport and we arrived at paradise! Upon arrival at the resort, we were greeted by CJ who took us to the very tropical reception area were they had drinks and cold towers for us.
We stayed in a "Deluxe Water Villa" #307, which is an over the water bungalow. We found this to be a perfect location and very private, close to the bar, pool, and restaurants.
The room was immaculate on a daily basis, very confortable in every way and just beautiful just like the pictures.
All the staff within the resort were very friendly and eager to help in any possible way. Service was second to none.
Food was excellent! everything we ate there was just delicious and our seafood romantic dinner by the beach was out of this world.
We had the ALL INCLUSIVE package which we really recommend, the resort its on a private island and everything except fish and coconut is imported.
We took the day tour thru iCom. The place is wonderful with stunning vista. The water is Crystal clear. Staff were all friendly. Water Sports facilities like kayak and water bike are free for the day tour. Food are all delicious.
We went for our honeymoon and couldn't have had a better time. A truly special place, completely cut off from the rest of the world.
We spent a lot of our time snorkeling and relaxing on the beach (with a cocktail or three). But there are more activities to do, both free and paid for.
The staff are so friendly and nothing seems too much bother. There are no children on the island either so would really recommend for a special getaway for couples.
My partner and I visited centara Ras Fushi resort and spa in July this year, as I present that I bought him for his 21st birthday. The holiday was everything we had hoped for and more. The giraavarn island that this resort resides on is absolutely stunning, perfect location. We stayed in a deluxe water villa room that overlooked the sea and had stairs down into the ocean right outside our bedroom doors. The staff were absolutely wonderful, so polite, helpful and welcoming, and were easily accessible at all times of the day if we required anything. The resort has 4 restaurants, a buffet hall, and an Italian, Thai and Arabian restaurant but we chose to eat in the oceans buffet restaurant most night, and had breakfast and lunch here. The food was exceptional, and far exceeded the average food that most all inclusive buffet meals include, each night had a different theme, and we never had a night that we didn't thoroughly enjoy the quality or variety of food. There were 3 bars, the lobby bar was our favourite, as the bar man there Bala was the most accommodating, polite and kindest member of staff we had met. The viu Bar was also beautiful, as well as the pool bar, all had outstanding service and views. 10 night definitely was not enough time, and we will be returning the the Maldives in the future to the centara resort as it was an unforgettable holiday, could not recommend enough, you have to go. Thank you to all the lovely staff at centara Ras Fushi resort for making this occasion so special.
If you want to visit Maldives and don't know which resort to choose, this one is the answer. I will recommend taking the water villas as these will give you the best sunrise and sunset view. Plenty of food choice to choose from and they're delicious. They will give you snorkeling, kayaking and some other non motorized activities free of charge. Also some other paid excursions like Submarine ride ( they take you under water for 30 minutes where you can have a closer look at marine life), Dolphin ride ( you know, a ride to see dolphin), Parasailing, Shark Ride ( ride to see sharks) etc. All the staffs are very cordial, well behaved and English speaking. I will recommend taking all-inclusive meal plan as restaurants here are quite costly if you buy individual meal. Just take a look at the view from our room. We took Sunset Water Villa. The view is breathtaking. You can walk down straight to the ocean from your balcony or just enjoy the sunset on the chair.
This was a lovely Resort with great water activities for free. The big downside of it was, the all inclusive package that doesn't actually include everything. Certain foods and drinks you still have to pay for. The rooms are nice and spacious, cleaned twice a day with really friendly staff. The food selection is also good. The other strange thing about this resort is. Half the people get served on loungers whilst others sit around waiting to be served. We thought this was to do with the package type you went for. But no the staff just pick who they want to serve until you ask for a drink.. Not good. We were left a little dissipated as this was our honeymoon and the service wasn't fantastic. And the non all inclusive menu was very odd.
The place was super good while just 20 mins from Airport by speedboat. Most of the staffs are very good and friendly. But we faced some bad situation from their service so it made us quite disappointed.
For Thai who expected to find a great food or Thai food here may have to reconsideration as in All inclusive package which you can have a set menu in Thai restuarant once a day is not like what I thought. The menu is like noodles, fried rice which I think its not worth for AI package. It's better just book the room and get half or no need. Overall the place, staffs are find but not worth for AI package unless you're alcohol lover.
Welcome to the adult-oriented resort Centata Ras Fushi & Spa! ***** Although children under 12 are not allowed on the island, young adults with ages ranging from 12 to 16 can be accompanied.
This resort is one of the cheapest resorts in Maldives. And yet, due to its ethos, it has become one of the best honeymoon destinations in Maldives.
It is an excellent opportunity to open our eyes into the exclusive natural beauty of Maldives and let the picture sink into our hearts.
Beautiful Island Resort, Good Diving Center. Most professional. Can negotiate of slight discount on diving trip. Overall experience is good. Small Island get bored after 4 days. trip to male town is chargeable. individual trip to airport is also chargeable. They have the best tour guide compare to the rest of the tour agency, we went to dolphin tour and we are the only boat that continue to chase after the dolphin while the rest just part and watch. Food was expected good but after 4 days, my taste buds get tired. 4 restaurant serving different style of food, not everything is worth it especially their "little Thailand night street food" limited selection and they charge at least 26USD before tax and service charge. water sports other than kayak and house reef snorkeling is chargeable, price before tax and service charge
We have stayed here for 4 nights for our honeymoon and had fantastic time throughout.
This resort is about 20 minutes away by speedboat from Male airport. There is a stall set up right outside the customs, waiting to pick you up.
We waited may be 10 minutes for other guests to arrive, before being escorted to the boat.
The island is quite small. It will take you no more than 15 minutes to walk around the place. There are 3 restaurants and 1 buffet hall. All restaurants need advance booking, so when we arrived we had to have lunch and dinner at the buffet hall.
There are several 'levels' of packages you could buy. We bought the 'gold package' which lets you order any dish and any drink from any restaurant. I would recommend this to anyone because it really takes out the financial decision throughout the whole stay. Any lower level of package will either limit your menu choice or make you pay extra, which might feel fine now but will stress you at the venue.
The package included all the cocktails from bars and restaurants. The variety was quite good - I think I saw something like 40 different cocktails on the menu. The quality of the drinks isn't amazing so you will need to be prepared to be disappointed for some cocktails. Bartenders tend to make the cocktails a lot stronger than what I had back in Sydney. Those are all free anyway to try it, and move on with your next one.
Food from restaurants were mostly great. Our favourite was the Thai restaurant. They had great soups and noodles, although the curry felt like lacking spices. Italian was also nice - pasta dish were of good standard, and all the entree dish were fantastic. The Middle Eastern restaurant only opened for dinner and by the evening we were so full, we couldn't really enjoy it. However their kebab was to die for. Portions tend to be large, so ordering 3-course meal will completely stretch your stomach.
We stayed in their 'sunset overwater bungalow' which is located on northern wing of the island, looking towards west. The view during sunset is breathtaking and out of this world. Around midday, the bungalow can get very hot, to the point that we thought our AC was broken. We found it best to stay out during the day and submerge in the pool or beach or shallow waters right below our bungalow, which is what you should be doing if you are there anyway.
Waters below our bungalow came up to around my chest height so it must have been about 1.4 metres deep. Current is pretty strong in the morning til midday, so unless you are confident in swimming you should only jump in during afternoon. Snorkelling gear was free to rent so we were doing that everyday. There were plenty of fish to see all around and also a bit of corals. Make sure you bring your waterproof cameras because you will want to be in the water all the time!
Resort was nice. Over water villas were quite good and comfortable. Pool bar is really good fun and the bar staff there are helpful. Spa was amazing, massages are a must. The variety of food options was great, good to be able to go to each of the different restaurants, just be sure to book for dinner as they fill up.
Reception staff weren't as great. Despite promising to coordinate the airport dropoff/pickup with the next resort, they didn't contact them. Leaving us in the lurch at the airport. This was very frustrating.
