Here are some tips for Noku Island in the Maldives~
About getting to the island: It takes about 45 minutes to fly to the island by seaplane. After arriving on the island, a butler will add you to the account. A deposit is required for check-in. Each room has a mobile phone, which can be used to make reservations for sailing, call a car, schedule a spa, and call the front desk for any questions. There are mosquito repellent, slippers, beach bags, and safes in the room (you can also bring your own). Regarding food and drinks on the island: We are all-inclusive. There are two restaurants and two bars on the island. One is the palms restaurant. Breakfast and dinner are buffet style, and lunch is a la carte. The buffet is very rich. I personally think this restaurant is delicious. The other is Thari Restaurant, which has a starry sky pool at night. It only has lunch and dinner, and is a la carte. Drinks are all inclusive, so you can drink as much as you want (including those in the bar). The mini bar in the room is also included (it is updated every day).
About the room: The two sand and two water houses we stayed in both have swimming pools. There are only four houses with swimming pools in the row of ordinary sand houses. I stayed in sand house No. 11. One bad thing is that it is very troublesome to walk from the sand house swimming pool to the beach. Then you can see the water house opposite. When we chose it late, the front was full (8, 9, and 10 also have swimming pools. If you care, you can choose these rooms). But you can see the sea, which is not visible from other houses. It is covered by vegetation. There will be some lizards and geckos at night. If you are afraid, just stay in the water house. We stayed in water villa No. 40, which has one downside, which is that from the sea side of the swimming pool you can see Thari restaurant and a sand house on the other side. There are also some aquatic plants, so you can avoid them if you care. However, you can watch the sunset and take beautiful photos, hahaha. Of course, the view from the sunset room is better.
About service: The staff are very nice. No matter where you go on the island, as long as you meet a staff member, they will greet you warmly. Our butler is also very good. The butler will send you the wine and beverage menu. You can also ask him for the daily menu. The butler will also inform you in advance if there are some free activities in the package. Clean the room twice a day, morning and evening.
About activities on the island: We were given a sunset cruise and went on a dolphin cruise at our own expense (about US$108 per person). The dolphin cruise is worth it. There will be a singing team at the palms restaurant every night. You can go there for dinner at night. After dinner, you can take a walk on the beach, feel the sea breeze, and step on the sand. The sand is very fine. If you like. Oh, by the way, there are a lot of hermit crabs over there, hahaha, they are very cute, but please don’t hurt them
About snorkeling: You can bring your own snorkeling gear or rent it on the island. The snorkeling spots in front of the Sunset Room and Thair Restaurant are better.
About leaving the island: The butler will send you the time the night before. You may take a speedboat and then a seaplane, which is also a good experience! I wish you a pleasant trip!
