the island is small but we we see variety of fish ,small shark, Manta Ray, we went snorkeling along the trench, fish groups there! despite the coral are dead, the ocean is beatiful, relatively clean and limpid;
people there friendly, service good and efficient, breakfust also delivious and sorts covers a wide range of food; sedfood is seldom; others are very good, also the pizza very tasty. the island is suit for me since it is my first time come to maldives, when we come for annual leave within Christmas and New year days; the hotel arrange us at very calm place, I even saw the captain of an airplane in uniform one day night for 1day stay at my neighbor next door; I like Malahini very much! the lovely people , the seashore view, the sky when at night the twlinking stars so near when you look up. i will be back beatiful Maldives!
Location is perfect. 15 minutes speedboat means get to the bed soon after long exhausting flights. Bandos is not luxurious while well worthy for people like me who needs a short getaway, escapes from a fixed 24/7 place and looks for even a little difference. It is adequate for snorkeling lovers who want to see colorful fishes, nursing sharks, eaglerays, and turtles
The resort and amenities are excellent but a few things were terribly wrong. Being located in the middle of the ocean and constantly exposed to the prevailing weather, one would have thought that the building standards would be up to scratch but sadly they are not. During strong wind and rain, our room flooded. Water entered under doors, around windows and through the ceiling . The curtains, coach and floating flooring were drenched. This is not a new problem as the floating floor boards were deteriorated and loose from this happening regularly.We were moved to another room but still had to endure problems with continuous internet and power outages, fridge and lighting issues. For a reasonably new resort it is a thumbs down for the reasons noted. No offers from management for our great inconvenience and wet belongings!

It takes 20 minutes by speedboat from Male. The island is clean and there are no bugs. The ratio of Westerners to Asians is about half and half, there are many elderly couples, and it is very quiet. Everyone greets each other when they pass by, which was nice. There are delicious curries, pastas, and meats that suit Japanese tastes. If you snorkel from the villa, it is so deep that you can't even touch the water, and the waves are so strong that you get seasick. There are hardly any fish, so I think the pool is more relaxing. It was a bit disappointing that you can see other islands and buildings from the island. It can't be helped since it's close to Male. But I think this price is reasonable for an all-inclusive resort in the Maldives. The cleaning staff was also very kind and unobtrusive, coming twice a day to clean up the place. The host contacted us on our last day even though it was a day off, and was very responsible and kind, so we had a comfortable stay.
We had 4 nights 5 days stay at Kurumba Maldives. It was a very nice experience. The staff was good. The food was really very nice. Had good Indian food at Mahal . Specifically to mention “karuna” the girl at mahal was so sweet and cooperative. Breakfast was also very nice variety with few Indian options.Even the photo shoot at the resort was great fun. Very good ferry transfer service to & fro airport. To sum up a very nice n memorable experience at kurumba . Would really suggest.
Everything was great about this place. Absolute amazing. The service was really great. The staff really friendly and helpful. You can ask anything for help and they will do the best to help.The place is so beautiful. It's a amazing experience and I probably gonna repeat in future.
The hotel is very close to the airport. The speedboat arrived in about 30 minutes, but it was clear that the speedboat transfer fee was included in our booking on Ctrip. The hotel did not recognize that we had to pay on the spot. Although Ctrip helped to solve it later, this made me feel very uncomfortable. OK, Xiao Hei will help carry the luggage, check in and they will help us take the luggage directly to the room
The island is not big, it takes only half an hour to walk all over, the environment is still good, Madai is really beautiful and beautiful
The good and the not-so-good:
Good: very close to the airport, big island (bigger than many other resort islands in the Mals), very good for snorkeling (you will see lots of fish, and even turtles ), services are great. Lots of land & water activities eg. Tennis, badminton, table tennis, kayak. You will have a host who will look after you during your stay.
The not-so-good: some rooms may have out of date furniture, food could be boring if you stay there long time. Airport transfer is expensive and you don’t have any other options but use it.
The must try: Water villa, Snorkelling around the island, their Stingray snorkeling tour
Clean, spacious and exceeded our expectations. Apartments complete with kitchen area with water boiler, stove and microwave. 6 friends and 6 bedder ontop of a living room and dining table
