Mathiveri Vacations from $2,399

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Fushifaru in the Maldives, and it was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm smiles and exceptional hospitality. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect, always attentive (Chelsea and Iqbal come to mind!) and genuinely friendly. The overwater villa we stayed in was breathtaking—spacious, beautifully designed, and offering stunning views of the turquoise ocean. Waking up to the sound of gentle waves and having direct access to the water for a morning swim was an unforgettable experience. The resort’s dining options were phenomenal, offering a great mix of international and Maldivian cuisine. Every meal was a delight, with fresh seafood, exquisite flavors, and impeccable presentation. Special mention to Chef Rishad for making our destination dining experience extra special. The activities were equally amazing! From snorkeling among vibrant coral reefs to a relaxing sunset cruise, there was never a dull moment. The spa was also a highlight—soothing treatments in an overwater setting made for the ultimate relaxation. Overall, Fushifaru exceeded all expectations and provided an unforgettable escape to paradise. If you’re looking for a luxurious and tranquil getaway in the Maldives, this is the place to be.

This wasnt just a resort. It was an experience! We went with the over water villa which had a private pool and snorkeling access via a stair case from the patio. We had the all inclusive and they meant just that. Mini bar was also included. If you want to keep the bill fown better go all inclusive. Had to take a sea plane which is seperate round trip and will chrge extra for weight so pack light. There are some exclusions but it will be more than enough. Our stay also included the bike rental to get around but there is a shuttle and a on call buggy service free of charge If you are not into cycling. Its two islands that you can roam and enjoy. We ate at the Uni restaurant which had a beatiful view and great food at a resonable price. The exclusive restaurants are not all inclusive but the alcoholic/ non alcoholic remained all inclusive. And you need reservations unlike the buffet locations. The Buffet have themed nights ever other night. Seafood night was absolutely amazing. The resort is everything and more you see in videos and pictures. Abdullah was our assigned guide that was there to help schedule things and ensure our questions was answered. He as amazing. From the elcome to the departure it exceeded all expectations. We snorkeled everday and saw all kinds of wild life. If you worry about swiming they have life jackets in the room so that you can still enjoy and it is fairly shallow around your bungalow so standing and walking is an option as well.

Easily accessible by 15-20 minute speedboat transfer. Warm hospitality and impeccable service. Breakfast menus change each day. Dinner inclusion in half-board is different each night so get to try different cuisine. Same butler (Mr/Ms Friday) throughout the entire stay which is great. Crystal clear turquoise water, very beautiful. Highly recommended and I would love to return to Gili in the near future.

The most perfect place in the world. Look no where else, the rooms are amazing, the house reef can be accessed from your room, and the food is outstanding! And the staff is wonderful, too. We have been 4 times and will definitely be going for Number 5.

A great resort. Plenty of options for dining, all excellent. Staff members totally focused on providing a 5 star service with a smile. Would certainly go back
