Breakfast was geat, delicious restaurant, beautiful overwater villa, fun activitites, magical spa and wonderful house reef snorkeling with turtles, mantas, nursesharks etc. Very well maintained, clean and Amazing resort with the greatest people! We are really happy that we picked The Standard as our first Maldives resort and honeymoon destination❤️🌅 and highly recommend it.

Stunning hotel with great facilities. The water villa was immaculately cleaned daily with an extra turn down service at night which was nice. Mini bar stocked with wine, beer and soft drinks. Would have been nice to have a choice of red or white wine and have the option to change some of the soft drinks for extra beers. Seaplane transfer was great is though a little hot to start with. The only things that I would say that let it down was the mis communication regarding our pick up as no one was there to greet us and some of the pool staff where not always on the ball but this didn't help with the fact that they did seem short staffed. The person in charge of towels was hardly ever there and had to get our own. Had 3 speciality meals, one in The Village which was lovely, the third night in Mizu which was just ok as the meals were very salty. The last night was in Ampersand and this was amazing especiallywith food as well as service. I would definitely recommend the hotel

My experience at the resort felt special from the moment I booked. The team stayed in touch through WhatsApp and answered every question with patience and warmth. When my outbound flight was cancelled, Husaam from reservations went above and beyond, offering to move my dates even after the cancellation window, which gave me huge peace of mind. Arriving by seaplane was magical, and being welcomed with a cold cocktail set the tone. My host Kun was incredible — she organised all of our restaurant bookings, sorted excursions, and even found us a new room immediately when our air‑con failed. She genuinely cared about making our stay perfect. Our lagoon villa was beautiful, and housekeeping was consistently great, with Adam leaving us a lovely handmade anniversary message. Across the resort, the staff made us feel like royalty and friends at the same time. The superstars who truly made our stay unforgettable were Shinnu, Viaam, Rose, Sumit, Shush, Gabriel, Ruwan, Salta, Lavino, Afey, Ravi, Nasif, and Venera. Entertainment was a joy thanks to the multi‑talented Vera, who seemed to do everything from yoga to evening shows, and Rina, who was equally warm and engaging. Meals were consistently delicious, especially breakfast thanks to chef Supan. The reef, the trips, and the whole atmosphere made the stay feel dreamy. I left wishing I’d booked a few more nights — it was the perfect place to celebrate a special occasion, and I’d happily return.

Our stay in Furaveri Resort was wonderful from the moment we arrived in Male. They arranged to meet us and took us to the seaplane along with our luggage. Every detailed was so meticulously planned. I can honestly say all the staff were very friendly from the manager, waiters, cleaners and groundsmen. They looked after us so well. The food was excellent, great spa treatment and sports facilities.

Reethi Faru is a true beauty with an unspoilt feel. There are tall palms, lush vegetation, colourful flowers, and a powdery ribbon of white sand around the whole island. Everything is well kept and very clean. Staff is welcoming and friendly, they are a great asset to the resort. My garden villa was of a generous size, loved the comfy large bed and the half-open bathroom. Food was of high standard consistently, the buffet was really varied and plentiful. The island provides a good balance between serenity and being active and bit more social, can do both. There are quiet spots, but also activities on offer. Personal highlights were the incredible spa - very high quality treatments and professional therapists at this beautiful facility - and the manta ray snorkelling trip. I do hope to be back some day! And in the meantime, absolutely recommend to visit, it’s just the right place for a wonderful Maldivian experience.
