"It was an amazing stay at Raaya. Staff were super friendly and caring. Thank you Shashika and Mithun for your kind support. We sincerely appreciate your hospitality. Koodos to the F&B manager Tyagi for his excellent team. His all day dining manager Mohan also very helpful and extremely responsive. Highly recommend this place to anyone. "

"Most amazingly beautiful island, totally relaxing. Holiday was made extra special by all the staff who were so nice and friendly. Would not hesitate in returning to this beautiful island."

"We already had extremely high expectations both of the Maldives and Faarafushi but OH MY GOODNESS did Faarafushi exceed those expectations! It is truly heaven on earth. The rooms are divine, the sea life is out of this world, the food is delectable, the cocktails and wine selection are to die for, the spa is bliss, but the staff is what makes this place even more special than you can imagine! Such kind and friendly people! Sundar and Ankur are both fantastic cocktail makers and kind and funny people. Sundar made us the most special cocktails and led a wonderful cocktail class and Ankur led a super interesting molecular mixology class, neither of which you should miss! Vishal gave “turn down service” a whole new meaning with his incredible decorations, and also treated us to birthday decorations for my husband’s birthday and honeymoon decorations. True works of art! We don’t know our masseurs name unfortunately but we had the best Balinese couples massage of our lives! Priyanka was our waitress a couple of nights and was just the sweetest and most attentive waitress one could imagine! We also loved Mohammed and Rohit who told us a lot about the Maldives and Rohit helped us plan our trip to Agra (where we were off to next). And finally our INCREDIBLE host Fayaz who was simply amazing! Organised everything to perfection, always checked in on us and made sure we were happy with everything and just made the whole experience perfection. Run don’t walk to this resort! It is HEAVEN!"

"I could not fault this resort, right from the arrival they took such great care of us. The food was outstanding and the staff were super friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend Cora Cora for a special trip away. "

"We did Joali for a 15yr anniversary trip. It is a long trip from North America but well worth it! This place is heaven. The website is actually really understated, it’s hard to describe how beautiful and luxurious things are once you arrive. You get a personal butler to meet all of your needs and arrange things. The rooms are huge and gorgeously appointed. All the staff are amazing and the food was absolutely phenomenal. I do gluten-free and they were able to customize anything. I wanted on the menu. The scuba diving is great and the equipment is all brand new and top-notch, including giving your own dive computer. There’s amazing water sports, including a private yacht to Charter, Sea-Doo and all kinds of manual water sports. We played Padel and tennis. Highly highly recommend."

"Amazing. We were back for our 5 year wedding anniversary. They have numerous activities, from which we've enjoyed the most the soft sports ones. They have great parties, and the jungle one was our favorite, and their staff have great shows and the entertainment manager together with his wife are some real acrobats. The food variety is great and the desserts are a challenge to keep your weight in check. The staff from restaurant & bar are friendly and always ready to refill your drinks, you cannot drink as fast as they come for a refill. It was also nice to see the GM involved in some activities and taking time to meet his guests. As sad part, the transfer prices I would say. I don't know if the resort has any input regarding them, but the seaplane transfer for 2 person is as much as 3 full days on the island, which is painful. Also, sometimes you can feel like an outsider, because most of their tourists are speaking German, so the parties and during the day, some of the staff start talking in German and then switch to English when they see your confusion.
