A beautiful island stay with amazing hospitality

Olivia D TripAdvisor review

Such a beautiful island with a really homely, cosy feel. The villas genuinely feel like home, the beach is amazing and so spacious, and Madi Hiyaa has incredible views and a lovely spot to relax with a drink. The food across all the restaurants was great, and I really enjoyed the Maldivian music and dancing on Fridays - such a nice touch. The hospitality was also incredibly warm and accommodating!

Dear Ms. Olivia, First of all, we hope you arrived home safely. Please accept our deepest appreciation for the chance to host you once again at Banyan Tree Vabbinfaru, Maldives. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts about your recent stay at our resort, and we have gladly shared them with the team.

Honeymoon Vacation

TripAdvisor rating 4.0/5

Ziad_korman TripAdvisor review

out stay was exactly the kind of romantic, peaceful escape we were hoping for. The location is a big advantage — it’s close to the airport and only about 20 minutes away by speedboat. A really nice touch was that the speedboat even had Wi-Fi, so we were able to get connected as soon as we arrived in the Maldives. The atmosphere throughout our stay was calm and refreshing. Even though the weather forecast mentioned wind and brief rain during our dates, the island felt clean, pleasant, and surprisingly settled, which made the whole experience feel effortless and relaxing. Our room was a highlight: clean, spacious, and thoughtfully designed. We absolutely loved having our private pool, and everything felt set up for comfort and romance, with all the essentials already there. Before booking, we watched several YouTube room reviews, and it genuinely looks like the villa fit-out has been upgraded with newer furniture, which gives you confidence that the resort is continuously maintained and developed, and it shows in the overall feel. In terms of value, it’s definitely a premium stay, but it felt worth it because the quality was consistently high, especially considering the privacy, the service, and how well the resort is run. What truly made the difference, though, was the staff: supportive, hospitable, and genuinely friendly. We honestly felt like guests in their home rather than visitors at a resort. Also, a thoughtful plus for many travelers: they have Arabic-speaking hosts, which makes communication much easier for guests who don’t speak English.

Dear Ziad_korman, Thank you very much for taking the time to share such a detailed and heartfelt review of your honeymoon stay at the Banyan Tree Vabbinfaru. We are delighted to know that your time with us was the romantic and peaceful escape you were hoping for and that our convenient location, smooth speedboat transfer, and onboard Wi-Fi added to a seamless arrival experience. It is also wonderful to hear that, despite the forecast, the island’s atmosphere remained calm and refreshing throughout your stay. Your kind comments about the villa, private pool, and overall comfort are truly appreciated. We are especially pleased that you noticed the continuous upgrades and maintenance of our villas, as this is something we take great pride in to ensure a consistently high standard for our guests. Most importantly, thank you for highlighting our team. Knowing that you felt more like guests in our home than visitors at a resort is the greatest compliment we could receive. We are also glad that our Arabic-speaking hosts contributed positively to your comfort and ease of communication. On behalf of the entire Vabbinfaru family, thank you for choosing Banyan Tree Vabbinfaru for such a special occasion. We would be honored to welcome you back again to celebrate many more memorable moments together. Warm regards, Elias Pertoft General Manager Banyan Tree Vabbinfaru
