Banyan Tree Vabbinfaru

It’s been 11 days since I came back to write a review. You can only upload 20 pictures, much more than that. There are also many small animals, such as lizards that appear everywhere🦎, manta rays that can be seen on the beach every morning, small crabs🦀️, many hermit crabs... We go snorkeling at Dhawa Ihuru opposite every day, and there are many boats to and from the two islands every day . Most of the staff at Banyan Tree Vabbinfaru are very enthusiastic. Special mention should be made of Jien, the young lady at the front desk, who gave us meticulous care and attention~~ She is a Malaysian who can not only speak Chinese but also write Chinese, so awesome 👍; Khaleel who cleans the house every day is very serious and responsible; the three employees of our fishing trip, Captain Samsaad, Rauf and Faiz crew, helped us bait and teach us how to fish. In the end, we caught 10 fish, and we became The lunch the next day was delicious😋; One day when I was eating in a restaurant, I dropped the 50$ I put in my pocket, and Husham found it. Thank you very much🙏; Rajesh, who has been doing buffet barbecue, is very enthusiastic and has attentive service; needed What I particularly want to point out is that when I asked to extend my stay, Riyaz, who is responsible for the management of the two houses, helped to monitor whether there were vacancies. In the end, we were able to continue living in the original house without moving, and they gave us a very reasonable price. Thank you very much. 🙏; Also, one day the father of the child discovered that his brother Nazim was making a bird with coconut leaves (not sure if it was a coconut leaf, a long green leaf), so the father followed suit, and later 🈶️ a younger brother Shafdhaan took over to teach. Later, the father of the child learned to make different birds, and he also carried it forward and learned to make grasshoppers🦗, 🦐, 🦀️ by following the videos on the Internet, but in the end he learned the unique medicine ball here from the two brothers... It’s really good. ;The last thing I want to mention is that they built a traditional house of the former Malay locals on the beach for a few days. Alee and another employee (sorry did not remember the name) also gave us a detailed explanation... This is our This is the fourth time that Madai has been carried out. The scenery is still so beautiful and the corals are growing better. Our whole family really likes Madai and I believe we will go there again in the future. 😊

What a great experience. The room type I arranged at the beginning was not very good. Thanks to Ctrip staff for actively communicating with the hotel, I finally got a very good room. Staying in the hotel is very comfortable. The sand house is wider and very enjoyable. You can lie on the hammock and watch the stars. You can also see the sea after taking a few steps. The hotel staff are very welcoming and the service is very good. Banyan Tree is really good at blending fragrances. The smell in the room is different every day, but it smells so good to me that I even bought some to take home later. It’s a pleasure to watch the sunrise and sunset every day, and the food is okay. There are many small sharks. It’s just that the resort island is relatively expensive, and the snorkeling is not as beautiful as expected. There are only some corals and nothing special. I feel that going to sea on Maafushi Island is more fun. But just come to the resort island and enjoy it quietly. From airport pick-up to drop-off, the service was very good throughout the process. The island is quiet and quiet, suitable for bringing parents.

The room is very exquisite, and the young man who cleans it every day is careful and fast! The island is small but beautiful! It is about 700 meters in a circle, and the scenery is different at each time period. In the early morning, you can see various strange animals, such as turtles and sharks in the shallows, as well as several crane-like seabirds. Even the seagulls are exceptionally beautiful! The tropical drizzle of various colors at the speedboat dock makes you feel like you are in the deep sea. The entire island is filled with the fragrance of plumeria flowers, and flowers of various colors can be seen everywhere! The sunset in the evening is even more charming. Lying on the hammock in the swimming pool, drinking cocktails, accompanied by the sea breeze, listening to the low calls of seabirds and watching the sunset, it is simply impossible to relax😎

It's very comfortable and warm. It's truly a paradise on earth. With Banyan Tree's meticulous care, it's really a holy place for marriage proposals! The island is surrounded by sharks, so don’t go into the sea easily!

The privacy of the room is very good, and the villa swimming pool has a door (lockable). The pool villas of Paradise Island and Paradise Coral Island that I have stayed in were designed with the swimming pools facing the sea, and then surrounded by plants to maintain privacy, but after all The plants cannot stop people from walking in by mistake, so the privacy is the best at Banyan Tree! But the swimming pool is too small, and it is almost useless for swimming (the bathtub is good, and you can soak in hot water at 37.5 degrees, which is very comfortable.) But the overall facilities of the hotel are a bit old. Because the island is small, there are only 48 villas, so the buffet food variety It’s too little, not in line with the positioning of a six-star island, and feels quite shabby, especially with the price of $70. Bird of Paradise’s $50 buffet dinner is much better than it. Compared with before November 3rd (the day when the pool bar opened and guests were treated to free Japanese skewers and cocktails🍹, which was more pleasant.), the island has finally been upgraded with an infinity public swimming pool. This facility is very good, beautiful and practical ( However, because it has just been used, there are design flaws. The anti-skid function of the swimming pool is not good, so it is easy for people to slip and fall. I fell twice. Although it was not serious, it still hurt when I fell, which affected the vacation experience. , I hope it can be rectified so that subsequent tourists will not be accidentally injured), but the most dissatisfying thing is that the hotel treats guests who request to extend the room differently. We booked on Ctrip.com for $150 to extend the check-out time due to room status, but Two Chinese people in another room booked through the hotel's official website and were given a free extension to check out at 18:00. This made me very dissatisfied. There were obviously available rooms that were not available to guests (I asked to extend the stay until 14:00 and wanted to have lunch on the island before leaving, but was rejected). This makes me quite disappointed with the hotel's service spirit! ! The Paradise Island where I stayed during the National Day was very friendly. They would extend your check-out to the latest time for free according to your flight (they will inform you whether to stay in the same place or change rooms to rest depending on the room availability. I was arranged to stay in the water for free at that time. Thank you very much for extending check-out until 20:00!)

The environment is nothing to say, the food in the restaurant is really average, the nuts smell like they have gone bad, there are a lot of flies, and the vegetables are a bit wilted. After staying here for 7 days, the sunset bar has not been completed, which is a pity.

It should be a hotel that has been open for a long time. Although it is well maintained, traces of time can still be seen. The rain and toilet are semi-outdoor, so going to the toilet at night can be a bit scary. The diving conditions on the hotel's own beach are average, but the diving at Angsana, the sister hotel opposite, is very good. There are four or five boats every day that go back and forth between the two hotels every hour. It only takes two minutes. There are still too few boat trips. Especially in the afternoon, there is only one boat. The entire island is very small, with a total of just over 40 rooms. There is no public swimming pool, and there is only one restaurant. It is a buffet for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and most of the tables in the restaurant are on the sand. As a result, there are a lot of sand and flies on the floor of the indoor space where meals are taken. The burgers and sandwiches ordered are pretty good👍The service staff in the restaurant are also warm and friendly. I hope to open another restaurant specializing in a la carte and the swimming pool under construction can be completed as soon as possible!
