We had an incredible stay at Noku for our2year wedding anniversary.The resort was absolutely beautiful.The decor, quality of furniture,build and accessories was amazing and so was the design and aesthetic and feel of the place!The resort is fairly new and you can certainly tell by the look of the place,it looked fresh,modern and very welcoming.This was one of the reasons we chose Noku!We stayed in a water villa(ROMANTIC)which was huge.It had a separate bedroom area,dressing area and outdoor bathroom and indoor bathroom.Sunrises from the water villa were very pretty each morning.The ladder that lead directly to the ocean was very convenient for morning swims(morning recommended as it is low tide.As the day progresses, the water becomes deeper and you are unable to stand in the water outside the villa).The water around the entire resort is clean,warm,bright blue and very clear.ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!Not seen water this clear anywhere else in the world!Sand a bright white and pristine!Both my husband and I are vegetarian. We were most worried about this when choosing the Maldives as a destination as local food is very seafood based.Upon arrival, we spoke with our island host Moho(super amazing guy),who arranged a meeting with the chefs of both restaurants. Chef Nathan(big shout out to him)really went out of his way for us!We had delicious food each day including sushi,rice paper rolls,noodles,tofu,curry,veggies,risotto,nachos,pasta,the most amazing salads!Best stay-highly rec Noku!

Response from Afrah on Mar 7, 2023
Please accept our sincere apologies for the inconvenience caused during your stay, It was reported first about the pool lights on 24th February,2023. The 2nd day of the stay. Engineering had checked the issue and found out that the pool lights were working fine. However main issues were with the brightness of the light. all the rooms we have same types of lights and brightness is also same, since the main request was about brightness we arrange it as a special caseOnce again sorry for the inconvenience caused

Where do i begin? After a long 30 hour journey,Arriving at Noku was very exciting. Upon arrival we were greeted with a sweet musical, then We were given our first drink of the trip by Fattah , who we learned would be our Host for the duration of our stay at the villa over the water with a pool. He was very knowledgeable and was our point of contact for everything he was literally at our beck and call,and was always available and made sure whatever we needed was taken care of. That was a great way to jump right in especially since we had to take a COVID test as soon as we arrived, and had to quarantine for a couple hours until we got the results back. We then walked into the room that was very clean and looked just like the pictures, we had bed decor upon arrival a fully stocked mini bar and fresh coconut water. Everything was perfect! We came to celebrate me and my boyfriend and birthdays.I had a special request for his birthday to set up a beach dinner..i brought decor with me from home and Afsal who was our housekeeper for our stay helped me set up the decor with balloons, a birthday banner, bathtub full of flowers to create a romantic feel and vibe that I visioned. I appreciate his great efforts in making this surprise happen. He was so attentive to detail and helpful making sure everything went great without a hitch. Im thankful. The food at dinner was amazing! Tarik the head chef is truly talented, he made the best Egg Marsala and potato crepe Marsala, even his Bbq chic

We have booked a water villa with pool. As the villas are so big and separated from each other and lunch is almost the same ordered to the room v going to the restaurant we have spent most of our time at the villa and not at the social places. Try to get villa 48 or 49 best views and privacy. Dinner is great but the hotel has to understand entertainment is not about playing music as lound as you can:) apart from the loud shows they had lovely acoustic live music every day. Great food, and gym was also decent! The two downsides are: hardly any sea life and it doesn't get much better if you go on a paid snorkeling trip. During new years dinner my purse went missing and the hotel wasnt really bothered by it.

Wir dürften 10 Tage auf Noku Island verbringen. Uns hat die Insel sehr gut gefallen, besonders die Natürlichkeit und die Unberührtheit. Das Personal ist stets freundlich und hilfsbereit. Besonders hat uns der Service in der Palms Bar gefallen. Bei Ankunft und Abflug am Flughafen wurde uns Mohamed zur Seite gestellt der uns zum Wasserflugzeug brachte und sich um das Gepäck kümmerte. Auch das hat uns sehr gut gefallen. In Zeiten bin COVID haben wir uns die Malediven ausgesucht, da besonders viel im Freien stattfindet. Auch die Restaurants sind alle offen gestaltet, so das die Gefahr einer Ansteckung sehr gering ist. Alle Mitarbeiter sogar die Gärtner tragen Masken. Im Restaurant werden als erstes die Hände desinfiziert. Die Villen sind sehr großzügig, unsere Pool Watervilla Sunset ist sehr schön direkt am Hausriff gelegen. Die Einrichtung allerdings eher einfach gehalten. Wir hätten uns eine Couch mit Tisch im inneren gewünscht (der Platz ist ja da). Außerdem besonders in der Sunset Villa ein größeres Sonnensegel oder ähnliches auf der Terrasse. Wir haben einen zweiten Schirm bekommen, aber die Sonne ist besonders in den Nachmittagsstunden extrem! Sehr gut hat uns gefallen, das die Softdrinks aus der Minibar inklusive waren. Die Strände sind wunderschön, an der Nord und Ostseite geht allerdings derzeit viel Sand verloren, so das mit Maßnahmen wie Sandsäcke und ähnlichem begonnen wurde. Die südlichsten Villen und der Pool werden bald weggeschwemmt. Hier muss sicherlich

Das Noku Maldives ist ein absoluter Traum. Es ist das Paradies auf Erden. Wer ein Ruhesuchender ist, wird hier fündig. Es vereint alles, das wir uns gewünscht haben. Viel ungestörte Zeit zu zweit, einen wunderschönen Sandstrand, übergrosse moderne Villen mit traumhaftem Blick aufs Meer, ein sensationelles Schnorchelriff direkt vor der Terrasse und unglaublich gutes Essen auf Hauben-Niveau. Auch das Personal ist super nett & freundlich. Nach so einer Ruhe-Oase haben wir immer gesucht! Wir kommen wieder!

Struttura situata su una isoletta piccolissima (30 min per fare il giro a piedi) Disponibilità e cortesia sono il perno di questa struttura il personale riesce a farti sentire coccolato, Per me é la meta ideale per chi vuole staccare completamente la testa da una vita frenetica, non c'è animazione, niente televisione. vengono fatti un paio di eventi nel tardo pomeriggio o nella prima serata, molto apprezzabili, senza essere inutilmente invadenti. Tutte le camere sono dotate di un proprio wi-fi e un minibar ben fornito. al vostro arrivo trovate (oltre al classico kit) infradito e borsa da spiaggia gesto di attenzione verso gli ospiti. La cucina nei due ristoranti è curata, di impronta principalmente asiatica il tutto è servito al tavolo (nessun buffet) anche se suggerirei l'uso di più pesce locale che purtroppo risulta spesso assente. Merita di essere citata la SPA che offre un servizio eccellente, consiglio almeno un massaggio! Anche il diving offre un ottimo servizio, che posso solo parzialmente giudicare (non faccio immersioni) solo snorkling.

FABULOSO
Hermosas villas, playa perfectas, increible arrecife. Perfecta celebracion de cumpleaños y aniversario con sorpresas sin nunca acabar, ademas de una cálida despedida... "NOKU ES EL LUGAR PARA SOÑAR" Pero sobretodo ¡El personal es de lujo! El cheff siempre presente preguntando si la comida ha sido de tu agrado y ofreciéndote cocinar algo distinto aunque no esté en el menú. El staff del restaurant y bar tan educados y atentos en todo momento. El staff de atencion a las villas... aquí queremos hacer un agradecimiento muy especial a este maravilloso joven tan educado y amable. "DHAAN" hizo de nuestra estancia en nuestras villas un momento maravilloso cuidando de nosotros con mucha dedicación, responsabilidad y amabilidad. Hasta preparándonos un fabuloso baño despues de la cenas... ¡Este joven es una joya! No queremos olvidarnos de maravillosas personas como "SHINAZ, DAVID, NAUFAL, BASIL" tan encantadores y dedicados en su trabajo cuidando en todo momento de cada detalle; coordinando viajes, detalles en la cena y en la villa, sorpresas, música(David "el Elvis" y los jóvenes cantes para la celebración de cumpleaños) SHINAZ cuido de nosotros hasta el último segundo acompañándonos hasta el aeropuerto Sin duda "NOKU ES UNA GRAN FAMILIA" pero detrás de una famila existe un gran padre y ese gran padre es "JUSTIN HENG" que hace todo esto posible. "UN FABULOSO MANAGER" que siempre lo verás dispuesto acercarse a ti con esa sonrisa tímida, humildad y resonsabilidad que lo caracteriza.

環境非常舒適,服務員非常體貼,親切。 但最後都感到失望。 就是在離開時搭水上飛機安排非常失當。 回程時間期望安排黃昏離開,因為返香港班機是晚上10點20分,但祇是安排下午二時班機。咁都無可奈何接受。下午一時就要做好要離開房間,辦理退房手續。在大堂等。........等到下午二時半。不見任何水上飛機踪影,問服務員至回覆話班機通知改為下午四點。最令人氣憤是完全不作通知有關班機延誤。任得我地乾等。準時及通知是非常重要,都無做好

We liked it very much. Harry who made the room very clean was nice and often creative. The chef was just great. The food was always very good. The whole staff took very good care of us. The bartenders as well as the drinks were just great. The snorkeling trip with Shaan and Floh was an unique experience. Durring this week, we saw sharks, octopus, mantas, dolphins, turtles, stingray and a lot of different colored fishes. We would come back anytime.
