Hands down the best customer service I’ve ever experienced! Every single staff member was incredibly friendly, professional, and welcoming — I truly felt like part of the resort family. What impressed me most is their commitment: if anything isn’t up to your expectations, just mention it and they’ll fix it immediately and go above and beyond to make it even better. An unforgettable, unmatched experience from start to finish! — Ahmad & Nour Ataya

Everything was OK except the food. I stayed 7 nights, and it was nearly the buffet for breakfast, lunch and dinner. As a 5 Star resort they sjould improve drastically on their buffet selection

Relaxing Heaven

Well kept peaceful and modern facility, everything was fantastic, what more can I say.watersports team were great hosts with fishing and paddle boarding trips, try the wine tasting, it's great fun and quite an education. All the restaurant food was good quality, we loved the service and food the most in Roma. My only down side was on the return to the airport, there is no support from the hotel here, there should be, as another group will pretend to be and over charge for various services from the hotel and offer chargeable services.

Beautiful Hotel, Ugly Service

Amazing honeymoon, no thanks to the service. The island, the water and the weather were stunning. Resort looked beautiful and rooms felt extremely upscale. Excursions offered were tons of fun. Unfortunately the staff at the watersports rental stand are extremely rude and the waitstaff at the buffet are clueless, like its the first job they've ever had. Not the service you would expect for the price you pay to stay here, which is unfortunate because the resort and natural beauty of the location are jaw dropping.

10/10 Exceptional

We had the most AMAZING stay, the rooms are spacious and clean, the water is the bluest I’ve ever seen and the food was delicious. The sunsets were absolutely breathtaking. We stayed at both a beach and water villa and preferred the water villa. Above all the staff made our stay, everyone was so lovely and go above and beyond to accommodate any request, nothing is too much trouble. Lydia was a ray of sunshine every morning at breakfast and the food and beverage manager Jannika went out of his way to make any of our fave dishes we requested in the buffet. Even put together romantic set up for my husband and I on our last night. Nuhaad, Muna, Ruwan, and Namal also made our stay so amazing. We have been to Maldives 3 times and travel extensively and this has been one of our favourite trips. We stayed for 9 nights with our 4 month old and could have stayed longer! I would highly recommend this resort to everyone.

Dias perfeitos no paraíso!

Foi nossa 3ª vez em Maldivas e nosso 3º resort diferente. Posso dizer que, no geral, foi nossa melhor experiência. De longe o staff mais acolhedor e prestativo, começando logo por nossa chegada na ilha com recepção com faixa de feliz aniversário e cantando parabéns no idioma local. A comida do buffet era bem caseira, sempre com boas opções, mesmo sem ser muito sofisticada. Já no restaurante Roma a comida tinha um nível acima e toda a equipe era fantástica, com destaque para a Nita, que tornou nossa experiência ainda mais acolhedora. Ela é uma pessoa muito especial. As praias do resort são perfeitas, com areias brancas e águas azuis turquesa, com poucas pedras ou algas, mas ao mesmo tempo muito próximas de recifes de corais fantásticos, permitindo fazer snorkeling a poucos metros do nosso bangalô. A vida marinha era fantástica com peixes de mil cores. Vimos ainda tartaruga e moreia, além de muitos tubarões e arraias. Fizemos alguns passeios muito legais para o banco de areia e avistamento de golfinhos. Os passeios e o SPA nos pareceram um pouco mais caros que nos outros resorts que já nos hospedamos. Precisei usar a clínica médica da ilha ao machucar o dedo e me surpreendi com a estrutura do local. Ficamos mais tranquilos ao ver tudo que tinha ali. Por fim, um agradecimento especial ao Shuhaan, que foi nosso host e nos orientou e acolheu durante toda a estadia! Sem dúvida o melhor host que já tivemos.

Essen ist schlecht, v.a. im Mainrestaurant. Service ist solala… Personal zwar alle supernett, aber egal wie lange man an der Bar sitzt, es kommt keiner und fragt ob man noch ein Getränk haben möchte. Eher wenig Aktivität. Die Einrichtung im Zimmer ist bereits in die Jahre gekommen. Ansonsten superschnell Insel und fast alle sehr Kinderfreundlich. Speziell bedanken möchten wir uns bei Jahit (Zimmereeinigung), Afreen (Bar), Namal und Hashim (Restaurant) und Shakeeb.

4/10 Fair

Sommige personeelsleden waren uitstekend in service maar ook een groot gedeelte die helaas niet weten wat service is. Het antwoord op een vraag is bijna altijd nee en dan pas na je vraag herhaald te hebben dan kan het ineens wel. Erg slordig allemaal. Veel te duur voor een accomodatie die ook maar weinig keus in eten bied en daarentegen ook summiere keus aan activiteiten/excursies. De ocean pool villa was echter prima!
Mina, 6-night trip

Nous avons adorer notre lune de miel. Les restaurants a la carte est délicieux! Le Buffet était bon mais manquais un peu de variété! Nous avons pris le tout inclus et nous étions très bien servi lors des repas mais hors repas il avais très peu de snack! Nous étions en général bien servi par notre responsable mais nous n'avions pas beaucoup de contact a part sur what's up tandis que d'autre allais voir leur client leur demander leur avis! Je croit que le prix est peu exorbitant en comparant avec ce que nous avions droit mais en général nous avons vraiment apprécier notre séjour! Ce reste une expérience inoubliable et plusieurs rêves réaliser!
Bety, 9-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The dolphin ocean suite was excellent, with splendid views of the vast open ocean and waters so crystal clear you can spot all types of reef fish, including a black tip shark which hung out a lot at ours. The bed was comfortable and the room was much more spacious than I had envisioned by looking at photos. The bathroom design also took my breath away, something I did not expect from photos posted online. Pictures simply cannot do the design any justice. I would highly recommend the dolphin suites to everyone who doesn't mind walking a distance to and from the suite. We travelled with young kids, so the hotel was very kind to offer their buggy service to us. But guests without kids or without mobility issues are not offered the same, and I can imagine the walk being quite tiring under the hot sun, especially if you are coming from the other end of the island where the spa and Mediterranean restaurant are. Service was excellent, and by far the best I have experienced in recent years. The staff seem genuinely happy to be working there and are keen to always help us out where needed. Everyone from the restaurant waiters to the attendants at the kids'club playroom were super friendly and forthcoming with information. Very glad to have made this place our first destination after borders reopened!

Sun Siyam Iru Veli will always be our favorite vacation spot. Went for our honeymoon, flight was super long, but It was all worth It. All staff is very courteous and accommodating.

Pros: The huts over the water are so beautiful. You can snorkel right off them. The island walks to the restaurants are hot but it's nice to get some exercise and walk the island :) the food was GOOD! So they must have adjusted after peoples reviews. I thought it was great and I've stayed at A LOT of 5 star resorts. The restaurant and house cleaning staff are amazing! so fun and friendly( I even became friends with one, Ernie. She was absolutely wonderful and I think management should promote her to customer relations, management or an Ambassador!! truly ) The Whaleshark snorkelling was Well worth it. You also have lunch at a little private island. The cheese and wine pairing was wonderful with the sommelier. The spa was the BEST massage and facial I have EVER gotten in my life. The float plane was lovely coming in and out. No issues there -- overall, it's a great place. I would recommend it and would stay again! Cons: It is true the ambassador's are definitely 'tired' and just only message you when you ask for something. There's no enthusiasm or texting you being like " what do YOU want to do today! " Trying to make it special. It is what it is. If only they switched the restaurant staff to be ambassadors ! Just don't go there expecting that. But it is still nice they have the ability to even text someone with things you need or questions at any time anyway. Most resorts don't even have that.

Let me first say we had an absolutely amazing stay at the Sun Siyam Iru Veli! The staff was very friendly and helpful. Guest services was excellent. The staff provided some very special details for our anniversary and we really appreciated those extra touches.The island was very well maintained. The views and access to the ocean from the overwater Villa were stunning! It definitely looks exceeded our expectations. The hotel offered nightly entertainment that was very good. The food was very good and it had a nice variety/themes every day of the week. Also, the food was very flavorful. The one improvement that we would suggest is having heated containers for the food, there were some dishes that we went to select and they were not warm at all.
