"Snorkeling is great, the room is big, and the one-to-one butler service is super considerate"

"Very good holiday island, no children, quiet. The room service was very good, the housekeeper arranged in a well-organized manner, we came to clean as soon as we went out, and replenished enough water. The breakfast and dinner are very rich, the level is very high, satisfied. The only downside is that this time to catch up with the heavy wind and rain, there is no snorkeling and any sea activities. The pick-up service is very good, there is a lounge, at the water airport, some distance from the international airport, there is a car transfer, and the service staff will follow."

"The water on the island is very delicate and clear, because the weather in the rainy season is not good enough, but it is charming enough! The waiters are very enthusiastic, and they will say hello when they meet, but the butler is generally ineffective. The privacy of the room is also very good, the breakfast is very rich, it is recommended to have Thai food for dinner, the price is cheaper and exquisite than the buffet. Snorkeling is very convenient. After experiencing the sand house and water house, you can go directly to the sea in the backyard of the sand house. It is recommended to live in the sand house if you like to play in the water. The water house is very comfortable and there are many fishes underneath. Children love it!"

"🌴 Review: Dreamland Maldives (Stayed July 7–11, 2025) 🌴 Just returned from an amazing 4-night stay at Dreamland Maldives, and overall we were really impressed — especially if you love marine life and peaceful surroundings. 🐠 Snorkeling & Excursions – Absolutely worth it! The house reef around the island is full of life. We saw nurse sharks, sea cucumbers, and even sea turtles while snorkeling close to shore. Our favorite excursions were: • A trip to Hanifaru Bay to watch the majestic manta rays. • A nurse shark tour around the Dreamland reef — exciting and well organized. 🍴 Food – Delicious and better than expected We chose the Full Board package (3 meals per day), and the buffet meals were consistently good. Each day offered a variety of beef, pork, chicken, and fish dishes, along with rotating international options. We were pleasantly surprised to find Thai dishes occasionally included — such as Tom Yum Chicken Soup and Thai Fish Cakes (Tod Mun Pla) — both authentic and flavorful. 💧 Note – Full Board doesn’t include water Still water is not included in Full Board. • A 1.5L bottle costs around $3.50 USD, which adds up over several days. • If you prefer not to worry about extra drink charges, we recommend going for the All-Inclusive package instead. 🌧️ Weather Tip – Be cautious in July On our departure day, a storm delayed our seaplane, and we missed our international flight. If traveling in July (monsoon season), plan extra buffer time or stay a night near the airport before your outbound flight. Dreamland offers a relaxing and nature-filled getaway with great snorkeling and tasty food. We’ll gladly return — but next time, with All-Inclusive and flexible travel plans during the rainy season!"

"The room is so beautiful and big. The service attitude is very good. The room is cleaned several times a day. Every time I go back to the room, it is tidy and clean. I will go again next time."

"It was very troublesome to choose an island before. I chose Four Seasons through various comparisons. I read many reviews before and they were not from Ctrip, so it was difficult to get the information I needed. I would like to provide my experience for your reference. 1. Plan and book your itinerary in advance. Ctrip’s self-operated prices are competitive and the service is guaranteed. 2. Booking a meal package is definitely more cost-effective than ordering a la carte. Unless you don’t plan to have lunch or have a late flight and can’t have dinner on the first day, it is recommended to book a meal package as the most cost-effective option, because meals are not cheap. 3. One week before departure, be sure to remember to make an appointment with your hotel for pick-up and drop-off to the island. 4. If you plan to have three meals a day, don’t bring food to the island. Most people won’t be able to finish the set meals they provide. 5. There is a Chinese service. Generally, you can use WeChat to enter your requirements in Chinese. 6. Personally, I think there is no need to participate in sea activities. Just stay in the hotel and snorkel on the shore. 7. Regardless of whether it is the official website or Ctrip.com, as long as it is the same room type but cheaper, no matter it is a sunrise room or any description, as long as it is cheaper, the sea view will be blocked by the breakwater. 8. Don’t always live in a water house. The sand house is more convenient. The water house has a better sea view and snorkeling next to the beach is better. But if you are lucky when snorkeling in the water house, you can see the eagle ray. 9. There are only two restaurants for brunch, but there are more choices for dinner, and everything is delicious. 10. You may or may not give a tip for cleaning. If you want to tip, prepare a dollar or a dollar. You can decide how much you tip. 11. Entry is now visa-free, but you need to declare online 12. The service, environment and food are basically impeccable, but they must be receptive to foreign food. 13. Apart from being expensive, there is nothing wrong with it. If there are many people, they also have a private island that can accommodate more than 20 people. You can contact Baodao 14. The sand along the coast of the sand house is very fine, and the room has direct access to the beach. However, because the sand is very fine, it affects the snorkeling visibility to a certain extent. 15. If you are traveling independently, it is best if you know a little bit of English. If not, translation software will be enough. In conclusion, this island is not a trap, but it is a bit expensive. Booking in advance will be much cheaper."
