Patina Maldives, Fari Islands Reviews

Very beautiful, the lagoon is nice and calm. All the restaurants we have are great, especially Koen and Wok Society! Services is the best. Everything is flawless!Lots of activities.

Amazing experience. The resort itself was like a pandora box filled with surprises. I instantly felt the positive and good vibe once I stepped onto the land. Both the exterior and interior design showed respect to the breathtaking nature of the original island. LOVE the natural materials used in the designs, the wood, the leather, the marble, etc. But what makes it more special is the staff. EVERYONE is passionate about their jobs and the island, and they all genuinely care for the guests! Six star service! LOVE the style and amenities too!

Great hotel

The service here was impeccable: friendly, prompt, and professional. We were delighted by the attentive butler service, and the restaurant's meals were delicious. While we sat by the sea, the restaurant constantly offered complimentary drinks. They even provided free sunglasses cleaning. I highly recommend the fishing trip. In the evening, as the sun set, our entire boat returned home full of passengers. On the return trip, we enjoyed a seat on the rooftop, enjoying the starry sky.

The view from the room is nice, but the beach quality is too poor, there are many small shellfish, which can easily scratch your feet. The staff at the children's park are very warm and friendly, and it is the first choice for parents and children and the elderly. It is not recommended for honeymoons, there are too many children, and it is noisy when dining and playing.

Very good service and good scenery

A memorable vacation

The service of this hotel is really poor, it is not recommended to choose It is strongly recommended that you be cautious when choosing this hotel, the service staff is completely unprofessional. 1. We were injured in the swimming pool in front of the room, because the stones at the entrance of the villa were too sharp, and the unsafe facilities caused the soles of our feet to be cut. We called an emergency call on the spot. No one came, so I had to clean it myself, put on a band-aid, and waited for half an hour before someone came, and then I didn't know what to ask. 2. The breakfast table was full of flies, and the food was surrounded by flies on the table.

After 11 years, I visited the Maldives again. It is really a paradise, and Patina's service is definitely the icing on the cake for this trip. Patina is a full-time butler-style service. After arriving, you don't have to wait for check-in in the lobby, you can go directly to the room, and then the butler has already arranged everything. Our essentialist is Naaish, a very good butler brother. Every day's dinner reservations and daily activity arrangements are all through the essentialist. They will work hard to solve any problems encountered. On the night of our arrival, we felt that the fence around the outdoor shower area was slightly gapped, and the privacy was not enough. After telling Naaish, workers were arranged to reinforce it early the next morning. If you want to participate in various activities in the hotel, Naaish will give you very pertinent suggestions. In the end, we went to the Dolphin Cruise and saw the dolphins and the sunset, a magnificent moment worth remembering for a lifetime. The other services of the hotel are also perfect. The steak I ate one night required a medium degree of doneness. It was a bit difficult to cut after it was served. I thought the steak knife was not very good, but the waiter didn't think so at all, so I got it from the back kitchen and remade it for me. I ordered a portion, and then the chef came out and explained that because the medium should not be difficult to cut, it must be their problem or the problem of the meat. This operation really made me a little dumbfounded. I ate at the Helio restaurant on the last night. It is very common to have a sudden change in the weather in the rainy season. After the appetizer and the main course, it suddenly rained heavily. The waiter helped us move into the indoor dining area. We hurriedly ate dessert and went back The room, in fact, everything is normal, but within half an hour the waiter brought a new dessert, because we felt that we hadn't eaten it well before. Every day at Patina is really beautiful, and I am very, very grateful to every employee for their service.

Ctrip is always black! It's really outrageous, it's a complete scam! They actually took out a studio room type and packed it. This room type did not appear on the website at all, and there was no way to know that it was a small building similar to the staff dormitory! Traveling all the way to the Maldives to live in a room like this is almost fainting. I've seen the best, but I've never seen anything like this!

Perfect honeymoon resort

An unforgettable experience from start to finish. From the second you arrive at Patina, the team make you feel like you are the most important people on the island. Our essentialist, Arey made us feel at home immediately. We stayed in an over water villa with our 2 boys. The rooms are so spacious that we didn’t feel on top of each other, so much space for us all and the beds are extremely comfy. Waking up to the view of the sea every day was just amazing. Food wise, you are spoilt for choice! Every restaurant is exceptional. Food and service cannot be faulted. We ate some incredible food and the service was seamless every night. Breakfast is a 10/10, so much on offer and by day 3 the staff even know your coffee choice! We were worried that the Maldives was more of a honeymoon holiday but we couldn’t be more wrong. We have 2 boys age 13 and 11 and they were entertained the whole holiday. Patina kids club is amazing, offering something for everyone. Art and crafts, culinary experiences, PlayStations (time limited), football, soft play, the list goes on! Every evening a list of classes for the children is sent out for you to book on to and there is genuinely something for everyone every day. Our boys snorkelled, played football, decorated cakes and even had a go at some diving. It is impossible for children to get board. They were able to have their own independence on the island coming and going as they please, all the staff were so amazing with them they felt like they were leaving friends when the holiday came to an end. We were celebrating my father’s 70th birthday during our trip and as a family of 8 we wanted to mark the day with something special. The management team organised a private dinner on the beach for us and it was just fabulous. If you have the opportunity to do it then do, it’s not something you will regret! I could go on talking about how amazing patina is but it is really difficult to put it into words. Patina have created something very special, luxury at its finest with the most amazing staff who really felt like family when we left. Arey, Fubu, Muba and Ronnie are just a few of the team that helped make our stay at patina so fabulous. We have definitely made unforgettable memories and we will definitely be back! Thank you once again Patina for everything, I definitely have the holiday blues but feeling extremely thank you for being able to experience such a special holiday in such a special place with my special people. Until next time x x

This is by far one of the best resorts we have ever stayed in. The management here have done an incredible job in creating this feeling of effortless luxury and genuine warmth and hospitality. There is a fantastic range of restaurants and activities in the resirt to keep you entertained for weeks and the team are very good at making sure you have everything you need without being overbearing. We visited a nearby resort during our time (more expensive than Patina) and the overall feeling and energy of the place did not come close to the Patina. This was an incredible honeymoon for us and we enjoyed every day. If you are looking for an exceptional experience in the Maldives and not sure where to go then look no further - we did a lot of research before choosing here and could not have made a better choice - Book now!

We had a great time on Patina with the whole Family! We particularly liked the outstanding architecture and Interior of the Villas - fantastic taste - and the more than lovely service (our essentislist Fubu!) and the broad variety of food. A wholesome and special experience.
