My husband and I stayed at Reethi Faru at the end of March, and it exceeded all our expectations. The island itself is small — you can walk around it along the beach in about 40 minutes at a relaxed pace, which creates a cozy and secluded atmosphere. The bungalows are very comfortable, with perfect...

We stayed for a little over a week in December. Before I went, I was a little hesitant about staying on a resort island. I expected to feel bored, isolated and fed up with the food. The island is very small when you look at it from above on a map. But to my surprise, it felt big because there are p...

It was just perfect. We choose 4 nights stay at beach villa. Because we wanted dive to ocean directly when we woke up and we love to walk beach sand. It was right choice. We enjoyed ocean and went to breakfast. That was our routing for 4 days. Place is very at-home atmosphere, cozy, clean. Staff...

Visited for six nights. Island is beautiful. We had a few hiccups on our dinner reservations made pre trip with Mr. Singh. I would suggest you reconfirm everything once there. Nazeer at the Veyo pool bar was fantastic. Food was plentiful and very good.

Strong 4-star hotel. Excellent all-inclusive cuisine with great attention to detail. Large island, quiet and peaceful, with beautiful beaches. The hotel is very clean, and the staff are kind and helpful - you truly feel at home. Plenty of fish and reef sharks for snorkeling, although the coral reefs...

The Daily Reality

Food, pools & the beach itself

Where you'll actually spend the week: how many places there are to eat and drink, what the pool scene offers, and what the water in front of the resort is really like.

Dining & bars

5 restaurants5 barsReservations at some venuesDine-around at sister resorts· International · Indian · Asian · Mediterranean · Grill · Beach bar

Expedia lists 5 restaurants and 5 bars/lounges plus 4 beach bars; official villa and downloads pages support multiple all-inclusive package types including Full Dine Around.

Pools & waterplay

1 pool

Expedia lists an outdoor pool; Maldives-island appeal is more beach, lagoon and house reef than pool-led.

The beach itself

Calm, swimmable waterGradual walk-in entrySnorkeling from shoreNo sargassum (outside the Atlantic belt)

Beachfront private-island setting with excellent snorkeling repeatedly noted by Expedia, Tripadvisor and Reddit; guests also reference a worthwhile house reef.

Venue counts come from the resort's own pages; beach conditions draw on monitoring data and consistent traveler reports. The sea doesn't read press releases, so treat seasonal notes as odds, not promises.

For Families

Taking the kids to Reethi Faru Resort?

A family week turns on the details brochures skip: whether the kids' club is genuinely supervised, who watches the baby on date night, and whether four of you fit in one room. Here's what we've verified.

Rooms that fit a family
3 categories, incl. Two Bedroom Garden Villa, Deluxe Two Bedroom Beach Suite
Beach for young swimmers
Gradual, calm entry: toddler-friendly
Dinner reservations
Needed at some restaurants

Family and two-bedroom villa categories are available, but a supervised kids-club program was not verified.

Questions parents ask

Can a family of 5 stay in one room at Reethi Faru Resort?

Not in a single standard room: the largest stated occupancy at Reethi Faru Resort is 4. Families of five or more need two rooms.

Is the beach at Reethi Faru Resort good for young children?

The water in front is typically calm, and the entry is a gradual walk-in a young child can stand in.

Do you need dinner reservations at Reethi Faru Resort?

At some restaurants: book the à la carte venues early in your stay and keep the buffet as the no-plan fallback for meltdown nights.

Kids' club ages, hours, and babysitting availability change seasonally, so confirm with the resort before booking.

Cons

Things to know

  • Reethi Faru Resort has all-inclusive plans, but they are optional and package-specific rather than the only default board basis.
  • The Full Dine Around package is materially different from basic all-inclusive and should be compared before booking.
