Gili Lankanfushi Maldives

Returning to Gili after a year's absence, I originally wanted to book the Sunset Crusoe, but it was too difficult to get a reservation. I managed to snag two nights in a lagoon room, though I didn't manage to book one with half-board this time, but that's okay. From the moment I arrived, I saw many familiar faces. The lagoon room was fantastic, much more comfortable than the pool room I booked last time. The lagoon was beautiful, and the welcome snacks, fruit, and champagne were such a thoughtful touch! A big thank you to our Mr. Friday (Makif) – he was incredibly responsive and helpful. The four different themed meals were still fantastic, and the service was consistently excellent! Last year I came with my child, and when I told my husband how beautiful Gili was, he wholeheartedly agreed! This year, we were very lucky to see many small fish, and the dolphin parade was a constant surprise. Besides dolphins, we also saw sea turtles and flying fish – a truly unforgettable vacation, and I'll definitely come back!

If you're looking for a tranquil island in the Maldives with blue skies, white clouds, turquoise seas, coconut palms, sandy beaches, all-log thatched overwater bungalows, and six-star dining, then Gili Lankanfushi is the perfect choice. This time, we stayed in an overwater bungalow in the lagoon area. Not only was the bungalow stunning, but we also deserve special mention for our personal butler, KK, a lovely lady who speaks both English and fluent Chinese. Her attentive, thoughtful, and enthusiastic service made our five-day, four-night stay even more relaxing and enjoyable! Gili Lankanfushi—the Maldivian island where dreams become reality!

I did a lot of research, so I thought I would see "this is it!" everywhere, but I was impressed far beyond my imagination. It was well maintained, which is hard to believe for a hotel that has been around for over 20 years, and the staff were very unique and enjoyed their work, which was also fun. The breakfast had so many options that I never got bored even though I stayed for four nights. I tried the staff's recommendations and tried the daily specials, and my smile never stopped. The only disappointment was the weather and not being able to see any sea turtles. The weather was not quite clear, so... I went snorkeling at the spot three times, but still couldn't see any sea turtles... It was quite disappointing, but I still had fun seeing various fish and having a full moon dinner. Of course, activities and everything you do will cost you at resort prices, so if you have a lot of leeway financially, I think you won't get bored even if you stay for a long time.

If you are still researching and are in doubt between Gili and another resort, your search is over. If you can, don't miss the opportunity to enjoy unique and unforgettable moments at this outstanding hotel. Paradisiacal beaches and rooms, impeccable service where you will be very pampered and well looked after. The only downside is that when your daily allowance ends, you will be very unaccustomed. It's very worth it. I will cherish the moments I lived here for the rest of my life. I hope to have the opportunity to return.

It was the best resort!
