The house wine ( on the all inclusive package) was dire.

Snorkelling was excellent, the whole place was quiet and relaxing. They catered for my Gluten Free diet really well and the Head Chef and Restaurant Manager were very attentive to me.

I did not like the introduction to the facility. I was taken to my room. The door was opened by the young lady, with no explanation of the card key usage. The door automatically locked when I left the room. I had no idea of this. I had to request a duplicate card from the office. I was a little annoyed about being locked out. Also, I was given no explanation of the TV usage. Which remote was to turn on the TV and which one for the channels. The young lady who took me to my room just seemed to be in a hurry and was not friendly at all.

I loved my room; The chef did excellent with the food choices available. Everyone in the dining room was friendly to me and very helpful. My room was #201 It was a great location with wonderful views. I really appreciated the sun loungers with nice cushions and labelled with the room numbers. Plentiful sun loungers were available at the beach areas.

The food was very average, from bad to good depending what you pick in the buffet. The "free arrival massage". We got a voucher for a head, neck and shoulders massage to use in the first 24h after arrival a the resort. We showed up in the spa and the"free massage" it's actually a 5min massage. Basically just to attract you in the spa. We felt a bit cheated. It should be written on the voucher "5min discovery massage".

The reef is amazing, sea life is stunning, snorkeling all around the island, full of fishes and reef sharks. Our bungalow on the beach facing sunset was very nice. Bungalow has everything you need.

Misled by Booking.com Advert see free return transfers BUT it was only one way and had to pay extra on arrival Nothing from Booking.com following my complaint

You have to love the sea, fish and water activities to enjoy Maldives. This island has the best snorkelling reef ever.

Opportunities for excursions were scattered, some in the main office, some in the dive shop. We also didn't which would be available until arrival at the resort, meaning we couldn't really know if we could do any on our day of arrival, and maybe not the day after. Generally, there isn't much information available in advance of arrival (typical menus w/prices, excursions, some of the other amenities). Dishes served didn't always match what was on the menu.

We loved our beach bungalow in the 300s, between the dive centre and Seanic. We were able to walk right out from the door, onto the beach, and into the water. It made snorkeling for our time there really easy. The staff were always friendly and helpful. The island is lovely, and well-maintained. We ate at both the buffet and Seanic, as well as a few snacks at the bar. Most of the food was reasonably good.

Minor thing- there were plenty of staff ensuring dead leaves were raked as soon as they fell on the sand, which was great, but occasional plastic bottles/ocean detritus got washed in and that could have been removed too.

We had a lovely spacious and modern beach bungalow with decked terrace and sunloungers. On waking each morning we would see baby reef sharks swimming by and the house reef was fabulous for swimming and snorkelling. My husband completed his PADI whilst there and the dive team were great. We enjoyed fresh and varied food everyday in the food outlets and enjoyed the all inclusive option. Had a really great holiday here and I wouldn’t hesitate to return!!!

Just returned from an incredible stay at the resort. The house reef was amazing with plenty of sharks, rays and tropical fish. Loved that we could eat at the A'lacarte restaurant for lunch and dinner as part of the all inclusive. The staff at the A'lacarte were lovely especially Shareef who had exceptional customer service in particular we loved his sense of humour. We will return.

Amazing resort. I wasn't expected that good. The way they welcome us top top. First second on the resort everything was peaceful and smooth. It was our honeymoon and my wife's birthday. The best private romantic dinner ever. Food amazing, especially lobster. I would recommend the water villa 👌. Every night they organise a different good entertainment. During the day, a lot of activities to do for a reasonable price. All the staff are friendly, smiley and happy to work for the resort. Thank you again for the hospitality🤩

It’s a beautiful island with excellent reef. Staff are very friendly and accommodating.

Our room wasn't the best. Unfortunately our area was really rocky and windy the whole time so we couldn't enjoy the beach near our apartment. It wasn't a big deal, we just went to the other side of the island to lay on the beach.

The resort itself is really nice, the staff is friendly. The food and the coctails are really great. But the most important and the best one which was unexpected is the living nature on and around the island. One snorkeling was a better experience than a normal dive. The house reef is just amazing both the shallow water around the island and the reef on the edge.

I had a really bad experience with the dive school staff. My husband and I are no dive masters, but we have been diving for over 10 years / over 70 dives, and we have never had a problem on one of our dives / with a dive school. The staff at the dive school often appeared to be annoyed by us asking them to do their job, and getting information from them was like pulling teeth. For our first dive we had misunderstood that we needed to come a day before for a briefing (an honest mistake) and then when we arrived, they then treated us with such unkindness and a lack of respect or even common courtesy I decided not to go diving with them again after the first dive. Ironically, when we then made sure to ask them for a briefing on how to do the house reef dive two days later, the same guy couldn't be bothered as he was on his phone My husband went diving with them once more, and again the instructor was so unkind and disrespectful, berating and belittling my husband after the dive for over 15 minutes, and over things that related to the dive and didn't relate to him at all and that he was completely ignorant about ("you are only here for the instagram" although my husband doesn't even have instagram and hasn't posted on social media in 15 years). We are the kind of people who can accept when we didn't do something right, and will take feedback onboard, but the way they treated us was unacceptable and had a significantly negative impact on my overall experience on this island. I think the most important thing for a dive school to do is to make you feel calm and safe, and these people did the complete opposite. The one exception I have to make is for the Spanish instructor who was lovely.

Ellaidhoo Cinnamon was overall a wonderful experience, and has one of the best house reefs I've ever seen in the Maldives (we've been to 10 islands). Due to the island being close to the atoll edge, the currents are quite strong and the reef is vibrant and teeming with grey reef sharks. It has two corners either side of the island where they congregate, which was really special to see. We did scuba diving on the house reef twice and it was also a fantastic dive, with their own small ship wreck and a beautiful coral wall. There are also lots of great and famous dive sites around here due to its location next to the edge of the atoll. We stayed in a water bungalow and had sunset view. The water bungalow is semi detached, but great sound insulation and we couldn't hear our neighbours at all when we were in the room. The quality of the bungalows is overall really good, and the terrace is spacious and feels private as they've done a great job with the partitions. The cleaning and buffet staff were all very friendly, and there was a good variety of food every day. There was one cook at the egg / pancake station each morning who was lovely and made me artistic pancakes every morning. I went for three massages at the spa, and it was some of the best I've ever had! Surat, one of the spa therapists, was absolutely brilliant and gave me my first deep tissue massage, that was really deep tissue. All of the staff there were very kind and helpful, and I thoroughly enjoyed each of my experiences there. The reception staff I felt were a little disorganised at times, though this wasn't a huge problem. For instance, at check-in we weren't shown to our room or given a briefing on the island, e.g. where the restaurant was or timings, etc. In addition, at check-out there was lots of confusion about our transfer and our bill, with lots of back and forth in the evening and the morning.

It’s everything a private resort island is hyped up to be, enjoyed my time here. Staff was great, restaurant had lots of variety and there were some activities organized too so overall great stay!

Absolutely everything... the place, the foot, the amazing crew.

From the moment we got off the speed boat at the resort it was absolute bliss. From the resort manager Pradeep to restaurant supervisor Sushil to the chef to the amazing barman... this place is paradie.
