Booked a trip to Le Meridien Maldives for 4 nights + 1 night in Male City. We travelled in a grp of 2 couples and were coming from Singapore. The resort itself was amazing,after reading the reviews online, i must say the hotel lived up to expectations! The food was stellar, there were 3 restaurants to choose from under half board for dinner. Breakfast spread every morning had variety and change of menus. We did prefer Vella's steak for dinner as opposed to Rivera restaurant. We found ourselves sufficiently full from just breakfast and dinner. Service in the resort was prompt, there were times where buggy was alil slow, but mainly attributed to peak hours like rainy days/checkout period/dinner time. But other than that, it was always on point with very friendly staff all around. There was no "pressure to tip" like other resort reviews but we felt like we wanted to as the staff truly went out of their way to assist us throughout the stay. We did the dolphin tour for 95usd/pax and saw sooo many, it was amazing especially with the sunset backdrop. Our overwater villa was spotless and modern, beds were hard for me but the resort rectified it with duvets. We swam almost daily from our balcony to their reef, saw baby sharkx1, stingrayx1 and turtles x2. Fish and reefs were wonderful, current does get alil strong sometimes but we were able to stand at most parts of the sea, it wasnt very deep (depending on where you choose to swim). Sea plane journey was seamless, we rested at the le meridian lounge while waiting for boarding they had fruits, drinks and snacks. All in all, a wonderful trip. I was thinking it would be a once in a lifetime trip, but we would 100% return!
