David S TripAdvisor review

My wife and I just got home from our week at the Mercure Kooddoo Resort. The pictures on the website hardly do it justice. Our ocean villa was immaculate, and the housekeeping staff made it perfect every day. The bed art celebrating my 5th wedding anniversary that was there upon arrival was beautiful. Thanks Jilani. The buffet at the Alita restaurant was easily the highest quality buffet I have ever eaten at. The variety was not overwhelming, and each dish tasted excellent. The Vista restaurant was a great experience as well, but you need to plan ahead for dinner and make reservations. Thanks chef Selvakumar, servers Hassan and Louann. If you have any interest in Scuba diving, the water sports staff are extremely knowledgeable. If you aren’t certified, they can teach you the skills you need to dive safely, and then accompany you to view all of the coral and wildlife. Afterwards, they shared all of the GoPro video, so you can relive your experience. Thanks Marty. The bartending staff have a knack for quickly building rapport with guests. They remember your name, room number and what you like to drink in no time. These guys are the definition of “service with a smile.” Thanks Yukthi and Kamal. Punjubu, you also get an honorable mention. When weather took away my chance to use one of my guest experience vouchers, the front desk supervisor helped me out and gave me a different voucher so my wife and I could get a massage. Thanks Ella. Thanks again for an incredible experience, and hats off to the Resort Manager Stefania Banfi for running such a fine establishment.

Woterworld paradise for all senses

TripAdvisor rating 5.0/5

RACMAN TripAdvisor review

We spent 9 nights at Mercure Kooddoo in December 2024 and.... we loved every second and every aspect of our stay!. The resort is located in one of the still less known south atolls of this amazing and unique 'woterworld' country. We stayed in a Beach Villa which was spacious, airy, light filled and comes with a beautiful maldivian style openair bathroom! The highlight are though the beach and the views of the lagoon at your doorstep! Amenities are essential but adequate for the resort category. The island is reached via a domestic flight from Male, and the small island-style airport shares this beautiful piece of land with the Mercure. So no long waiting to reach your corner of paradise upon arrival or the airport once you sadly have to leave! The lagoon is beautiful and the house reef rich in corals and sea life from sharks to turtles and plenty of colourful fishes, that will keep you willing to spend most of your time in the crystal clear waters. The two restaurants and the bar offer a huge variety of food and drinks which will force you on a diet once you go home! Food is plentiful, fresh and well presented. We recommend to go AI to fully enjoy your holiday. The service and staff deserve a special praise as the whole team, graciously led by Stefania, the Resort Manager, is so welcoming, attentive, friendly and is definitely going to make your stay an even more special experience! Don't miss the excursions and the activities the resort offers, especially the dolphin cruise and a massage at the SPA! Being an adult only resort and having only 68 villas, this is the place to fully relax and reconnect with nature and your half. Don't expect posh surroundings, but a more genuine Maldivian experience with a touch of luxury and great comfort. We had a wonderful stay and hope to come back in the future. Our heart felt thank you to the entire Mercure team!!

Thank you for your heartfelt and detailed review! We’re absolutely delighted that your 9-night stay at Mercure Kooddoo was such a memorable experience. It’s wonderful to hear how much you enjoyed the serene beauty of the South Atolls, the spacious Beach Villa with its open-air bathroom, and the stunning lagoon and house reef teeming with marine life. We’re glad you found the food, drinks, and AI package to be plentiful and enjoyable and that our team’s service made your stay even more special. Your kind words about our staff and the overall experience mean the world to us, and I’ll be sure to share your praise with the entire team. It’s fantastic that you took part in the excursions and activities, and we’re thrilled the dolphin cruise and spa treatments added to your enjoyment. We look forward to welcoming you back for another relaxing and genuine Maldivian experience. Thank you again for choosing Mercure Kooddoo and for your warm words of gratitude! Warm regards, Stefania Banfi Resort Manager

Resort location was beautiful, staff was friendly, and the grounds were well-kept. While the all-inclusive feature wasn't exactly ALL inclusive, compared to other all-inclusive resorts we have visited, it was adequate, and that was only because the resort changed their all-inclusive options after we had already booked and we raised our concerns at check-in and they agreed to make some of the items we wanted included. It would have been nice to have more than 2 restaurant options (a buffet and an Italian restaurant) but the food wasn't bad. My husband and I had 2 massages while we were there and they were fantastic.

Thank you for sharing your feedback! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the beautiful location, friendly staff, and well-kept grounds. We appreciate your understanding regarding the all-inclusive adjustments and are glad we could address your concerns to enhance your stay. Your comments on the dining options are noted, and we’ll look at ways to improve variety in the future. It’s wonderful to know you loved the massages – we’ll pass your kind words to the spa team. We hope to welcome you back for another relaxing experience! Warm regards, Stefania Banfi Resort Manager

Fell Short Of Expectations

For the most part the staff were ambivalent. There were only a couple of staff members who went above and beyond. The food was not cohesive and felt very uninspired. By the end of our 7 day stay we were anxious for a good meal. The bright side, the accommodations were very satisfactory. We stayed in an overwater villa (without a pool). It was very comfortable, clean, and spacious.

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We’re pleased to hear you found the accommodations in the overwater villa comfortable, clean, and spacious. However, we’re truly sorry to learn that the food and overall service did not meet your expectations. Your comments regarding the dining experience and staff engagement are important to us, and we will address these areas with the relevant teams to ensure improvements are made. We greatly appreciate your honesty and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future for a more seamless and satisfying experience. Warm regards, Stefania Banfi Resort Manager
