Villas Finolhu REPÚBLICA DAS MALDIVAS

Amazing scenery - looks like bounty advertising island!
We loved snorkeling, so many things to see.
The food is so good, do not miss the traditional Club Med buffet style - elegant way of serving food. Resort also proposed sunset cruise, we were lucky to see dolphins on the way!
We don’t like loud parties, so we had fun playing bocce ball / enjoying movie under the stars and even karaoke night 🥰

We came to Club Med for our honeymoon, and the resort is so beautiful and peaceful, perfect for a romantic trip. A big thank you to Maria for helping us arrange this special honeymoon and making it truly memorable 💕💕💕
We also had such a great time thanks to Opic at the water sports area. He was incredibly kind and helpful, especially with my husband who was visiting Club Med for the first time and even taught him the famous Crazy Signs so he could join in the fun. His warmth and patience really made our stay more enjoyable.

We were lucky enough to stay at this stunning resort for a second time and it didn’t disappoint - it ticks all the boxes. From start to finish, we had an incredible time. All the staff are professional and friendly and go out of their way to make you happy. Particular mentions go to the talented and dynamic Marguerite (Chef de Village), Boo the Head Butler who looks after your every need and dear Sola our wonderful waiter, to name but a few. The food is amazing whether it’s in the restaurant, a beach side bbq or by the pool. The resort is spotlessly clean and the villas are spacious and well designed. You will not be disappointed holidaying here! We would not hesitate in going back again to this slice of heaven, already missing it!!

As a fan of Club Meds in general, I can say this was by far our absolute favorite! The location and its beautiful scenery paired with the amazing GO staff and close, community feel can't be beat! From the moment we arrived, greeted by GM Marguerite and our amazing butler Abu, to the send off on our last day, every single expectation we had was exceeded!

Marguerite sets an amazing tone as Chef de Village, and the entire GO team shines with their pride and their genuine desire for excellent customer service and hospitality.

The villas are amazing and roomy, with unbeatable views. The pool and surrounding areas were always immaculately kept, and the food was absolutely amazing (and our server - Sola - met us each meal with a smile and already remembering our preferences, and wanting to hear about our day)!

We did an afternoon at the spa and it was pure luxury, with the added touch of being able to watch the fish through the clear, glass floor. We also took part in the coral restoration workshop - just another demonstration of the commitment to sustainability - and were so impressed by Club Med's in-house marine biologist, who took care to answer all questions and really showed how much she loved her job! We also did a couple of the sport classes and the instructor, Love, was absolutely amazing!

All in all, this truly was the best vacation we have ever been on! A perfect mix that balanced both rest and calm with having loads of fun! All while in an incredibly welcoming, serene environment!

We have been continually impressed by the wonderful, welcoming experience we have received at Club Med's previously - but Finolhu exceeded all expectations.

My wife and were looking for somewhere to relax in the sun for a major anniversary milestone. So peaceful, beautiful and relaxing. A quiet place to lounge and read a book for hours on end.

As soon as you arrive you realize that although the Maldives is a magical, warm, tropical oasis - its the people who take Finolhu over the finish line. You are welcomed by Marguerite (Chef du Village) , who is so focused on making sure the whole island team is ready to help you enjoy your stay. She is clearly a great leader as they truly felt like one big family.

We were then taken to our over the water villa by Abu - who would be our butler for the week. He was so pleasant and always keen to make a suggestion on how to enjoy the resort. He helped so much with all the details - taking all the worries away so we could just melt away on the beach.

The food was amazing too. Everyone was so nice - especially Sola - who was always there with a smile to greet you. In no time, he knew what our likes and dislikes were. All the food was so fresh and creative. Fresh baked goods and really great variety.

We managed to snorkel and dive as well. So much marine life everywhere (even from the villa or Motu). Reef sharks, eagle rays and fish all over the place. We even saw dolphins from the boat going to snorkel - and saw them swim by while coming to the surface after diving!
The property was so well taken care of - so photogenic from any angle. Warm water and awesome weather was the icing on the cake.

We normally try to go to different places each vacation - but I think Finolhu could be the one that we want to go back to the most!
