Think Twice

This hotel is definitely not 5 star... The service from management was terrible before arrival. We had to send numerous emails to arrange our transfer. Further they charge an extortionate amount for the transfer $250 return trip that takes 15 mins. We paid $50 for a return trip to Maafushi on a similar boat. Altough individual staff including our MEM were friendly, the management was not good. I would definitely not recommend this resort.

We recently stayed at the SO/ Maldives Resort and wanted to share my feedback to help improve future guest experiences. 1. Room Reservation Issue: I booked a water villa specifically for a private vacation with my husband. However, upon arrival, the room I booked was unavailable, and I was offered an upgrade to share a larger house with my friends. While the villa was stunning, it did not provide the privacy I was seeking, which was a key reason for choosing your resort. 2. Boat Transfer Experience: Our group had arranged a private boat transfer. Unfortunately, on the return trip to the airport, we had to share the boat with other guests due to a delay in my checkout process. This resulted in other guests yelling at me for making them late, which was a stressful and unpleasant experience to end the vacation. I appreciate the beauty of the resort and the effort put into making it luxurious, but these issues detracted from the privacy and exclusive experience I was expecting. I hope you take this feedback into account to improve service consistency for future guests.
