Pullman Maldives Maamutaa, All-Inclusive Resort 5 stars

Before booking please be aware that the domestic flight is horrendous, it easily adds hours to your journey and a considerable amount of stress. On your return journey you can be potentially booked on a domestic flight that leaves no margin for delays or travel disruption. You are not asked your preference in-fact you are left guessing, and without approaching reception, no communication regarding departure is given. Reception on the whole needs to re-evaluate their customer service, we found them to be unhelpful, disinterested rude and generally difficult to deal with, definitely room for improvement in this area. Moving away from the above negatives the Island is beautiful, even as a non-swimmer/snorkeler spotting sharks, turtles, stingray is a daily treat. And the ever changing ocean colours are spectacular with white sandy beaches and beautiful tropical pathways winding through the island . We stayed in a pool water villa on the sun rise side. The villa its self was absolutely beautiful, clean and modern with a large pool and outdoor area sunbeds etc. Well stocked mini bar, snacks, toiletries etc. However the sea on this side is not accessible as the sea bed is rocky, it was also “very” windy which might just be bad luck. They also do not get the sun in the afternoon. We had bikes included with our room which we loved but the hotel needs to provide locks with bike hire as believe it or not peolpe take your bikes!!! Dining we used main dining area “Melange” for breakfast and evening meal. The selection is impressive with lots of freshly cooked options. The staff and chefs are a credit to the hotel and provide a great service, a special thank you to Subrata, Kori and the young man and his co-workers behind the dessert counter (names un-known) for providing that extra special service. A special thank you goes to the hard working team at The Hub pool bar, providing drinks ,lunch and plenty of smiles. Kasan and Rachitha for providing that extra special service, a credit to your employers. All in all despite the domestic flight and reception issues we had a thoroughly lovely stay its a beautiful island, and only rated as 4 stars due to the location /domestic flight and reception issues.

Amazing resort , food is great ! Very wide range of alcoholic and non beverages , clean rooms and outlets . Staff is super helpful and friendly . Highly advised place .

We were looked after fabulously and the accommodation was wonderful. Good however mediocre.

Our stay at Pullman Maldives Maamutaa was, without a doubt, one of the most comfortable and memorable holidays we have ever had. It is truly one of the best resorts for families travelling with an infant. Our one-year-old had the most wonderful time on the island, and that alone made the experience incredibly special for us. From the moment we landed in Malé, everything was perfectly taken care of. Resort staff were waiting to welcome us and assisted us seamlessly with the domestic transfer to Kooddoo, including access to a comfortable lounge. From Kooddoo, it was just a short 15-minute speedboat ride to the resort, making the journey smooth and stress-free, even with a baby. On arrival, we were greeted by a group of smiling staff members with traditional Maldivian music, beautiful garlands, and refreshing welcome drinks. The warmth and hospitality were immediately evident. We were then given a detailed island tour, where everything from restaurants and bars to activity locations was clearly explained. After that, we were taken to our stunning Overwater Ocean Pool Villa, which became our home for the first three nights. The villa was perfectly positioned with breathtaking sunset views and equipped with every amenity one could need. Waking up to the ocean and ending each day with those sunsets was truly magical. After three nights, we moved to a Private Beach Pool Villa, which offered direct access to the beach and crystal-clear turquoise waters. This change gave us a beautiful mix of overwater luxury and beachside serenity during our stay. One of the absolute highlights of our experience was the food. The chefs were exceptional and went above and beyond to cater to our little one’s dietary needs, preparing meals on demand to ensure he was happy and well-fed. Breakfast at Mélange Restaurant offered a fantastic variety, with our personal favourite being the dosas prepared by Chef Krishna. Lunches and dinners featured a wide range of cuisines, ensuring there was always something new and delicious to enjoy. A special thanks to the Head Chef for the personal care and attention given to our child’s meals — it meant a lot to us as parents. We also had an unforgettable private dinner experience at Panorama Beach. Dining by the turquoise waters with stunning sunset views was truly magical and one of the most romantic moments of our trip. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of our stay at Pullman Maldives Maamutaa. The service provided by every staff member was outstanding, warm, and genuine. We left the island feeling relaxed, cared for, and completely satisfied. We would wholeheartedly recommend this resort to families and friends looking for a perfect Maldivian experience, especially those travelling with young children.
