The Ritz-Carlton Maldives, Fari Islands

From the moment we arrived we were greeted at the airport and were escorted to the ritz lounge at the doc then they proceeded to take us on Their private yacht to the island! I was blown away the yacht ride to the island was everything!! When we arrived to the resort I knew I was in paradise!!! I actually cried leaving!! Everything about this place is absolutely perfect. Their attention to detail is insane. Our Butler Ford was amazing. He was like a ninja every time we would leave he would always have some sort of sand decoration on on our dock right in front of our door saying some kind of sweet message like happy anniversary or good night Josh and Ashley. Every request we had he was on it. I cannot say how grateful I am for all the bartender staff on the island they were ableto make my favorite drink the Ramos gin fizz!!! Very cool of them!! all the food on the island is very very good you get for what you pay for! Our favorite restaurant was the Asian one the dumplings were to die for! We did the trip to the other island for Indian food. The boat ride and island was neat but the food fell short. I would stick to the restaurants on the resort. The breakfast buffet was out of this world if you can’t find something to eat at their breakfast, then you are one picky eater. They had every single cuisine and everything was just delicious. It was very hard not to eat everything! one of my favorite things Is that all the items in the mini bar in your villa are complimentary and they fill up every day in your villa. we were in Villa 116 over water snorkeling wasn't the best because they just set up their resort and their reef is not quite established yet but I will say there was plenty of sea turtles rays and sharks and I saw one eel overall the property is just stunning. They have plenty places to hang out snorkel, white sand beaches if you have children, they have a huge play area for them. I was a little jealous lol. the bikes they have are awesome. You can ride around the whole island overall we had the best stay!!! Cannot thank Ford enough the was the VIP!! He really made our stay special! I would go back to this resort in a heart beat! Oh forgot to mention the diving Thomas and the dive center is awesome. Really felt safe and comfortable with him. Highly recommend their diving team some of the most extraordinary diving places I’ve ever seen. Book this resort!! Villa 116 was awesome very private plus to the right is a little beach area you can hang about on. 116 for the privacy win!!

ANTH IS MAJESTIC! My wife and I just had the best honeymoon at the Ritz-Carlton Maldives. From the moment we set foot at Malé Airport and were picked up for the transfer, the level of service and hospitality was top notch. This was by far the best travel experience to a luxury resort of our lives. Food 10/10 Views 20/10 Service 100/10 But what really stole the show was our Aris Meeha Anth. She was amazing, giving us love and attention every minute. I showed up with a scratchy throat from singing at our wedding and then caught a cold, and Anth had throat candy and medicine from the clinic doctor sent straight to our room. She booked our dolphin cruise and walked us to the dive center herself, and the dolphins answered her call!! She got us a late checkout until 3pm, rebooked our dinners when rain threatened, and even tracked down my favorite pants from lost and found and got them to us before our flight home. The woman can do EVERYTHING. Anth you rock!! And it was the million small things every day that made our stay truly superior. Anth prepared a bubble bath for us, surprised us with beautiful cheese and wine platters in the room, and always showed up at exactly the right moment. She is super witty and made us feel special every single second. Naby, one of the servers, gave us amazing food recommendations and educated us about Maldives history and current events. He even introduced me to "sick tea" to help me fight my cold. What a top notch guy! Modu, one of the servers, treated us like family from day one. He treated us to lunch, made sure we were taken care of at all times, and we never had to think about anything. An absolute legend! From the moment we checked out we realized how truly top notch Anth and the whole Ritz team are. We miss you all and will forever remember our days at the Ritz!! At this point you should stop reading this and book your stay NOW! Best experience ever!!!

We had a perfect 5‑night, 4‑day holiday at The Ritz‑Carlton Maldives. The island scenery is stunning, and our villa was comfortable. Our overall experience exceeded all expectations. A special thank‑you to our dedicated butler Kelly. She was thoughtful and highly responsive. She smoothly arranged our activities, restaurant reservations and all our small requests. She anticipated our needs with warm and professional service, making so many wonderful memories for us. Highly recommend this resort and we look forward to coming back!

My husband and I celebrated our anniversary here and had an unforgettable experience. The hotel itself is absolutely stunning but the staff and the food here is what made our stay so special. The staff members here are incredible and pay attention to every detail. There was truly no ask that was too much or inconvenient for our Aris Meeha, Arafath!! The food here was also amazing. We are huge foodies and we loved every meal we had. A huge thank you to Executive Sous Chef Mohamed for making dishes tailored to our liking for us to try. All of the chefs there are so incredibly talented and we were so grateful to experience their food. Also a huge thank you to Sunny, Samuh, Mueen, and Lisaan at Eau Bar for helping celebrate our anniversary!! The service and hospitality were truly unmatched. We will definitely be returning to this magical place. Definitely book a spa experience as well!!!! One of the best massages we’ve ever had!
