Client Testimonials — Page 35 of 107
We have been fortunate to travel on holidays planned and arranged by Angelfish for around 10 years.
We've travelled to many islands in the Maldives, several hotels in Mauritius and Oman.
Angelfish have always been able to offer lots of suggestions and up to date information on various destinations so it makes the process of planning and booking quite straightforward - except, unfortunately, for choosing between the many, many lovely places to visit and stay.
We had 4 nights in the beach villa. Anas ( front office mgr) kindly put us in 85 - the newly remodelled villa . This was very good - but may take some time for all villas to be upgraded . Definitely seek to put clients in these. Also, beach on sunrise side is heavily eroded ( though villas 85 and 86 are ok , and the villas below 50 to the water villas are ok ). I would not send guests to villas 50 - 84 . Otherwise the island retains all its many charms.
(Please disregard excursions rating, we didn't partake & can't remove score !)
Islands paths quite dirty & rough for bare feet, first island we've been to in 37+ trips where we felt it necessary to wear shoes everywhere !
Main bar not as peaceful as we'd like, every night featured same DJ/saxophone duo (!)
Overall, Dusit Thani ties with Coco Palm Bodu Hithi for our favourite island so far.
An outstanding resort and ideal for us. I think we may have found our perfect Maldives island!We really hope to be able to return next year.
The music in evening in bar was of limited choice and the DJ seemed unable/willing to find alternative songs to which one might have been tempted to dance [which might have improved the atmosphere ]
Delightful staff otherwise throughout resort.
Everything was fabulous. The staff go above and beyond to make it so! We will definitely return unless we can fine somewhere to equal it, which I suspect will be tough. Thank you angelfish for amazing service, will definitely be booking with you again soon.
We had an amazing time and the resort was super relaxing, friendly and responsive. I would say that being on an all inclusive package we were disappointed that no alcohol was available in the rooms on the package and instead we had to pay for all drinks in the room. Several people we spoke to commented on this.
However not a huge issue all in all. We had an incredible time .
Excellent holiday. We loved the resort, great snorkelling, great staff, good food and good facilities. We will return.
Emirates flights were good.
Angelfish provided an excellent service.
Fantastic holiday everything fabulous. Could not fault anything from booking to returning home.
BA economy - one basic meal , no tea/coffee after and second snack was only a roll / croissant so basic at best and doesn't compare well to other airlines,. Ground handling and baggage issues at terminal 5 - hour wait to leave plane plus over an hour to then get bags. Only plus was the direct flight.
Resort : reef has improved in last 2 years so is excellent. Those extra touches that give the Maldivian experience were lacking compared to our 2020 visit ... no "welcome" written in palm leaves on the bed, had to request coasters and nuts to accompany a sundowner drinks, one excellent Maldivian evening but no singers in the bar as in 2020. The positives are that the food was excellent and the coral/marine life fantastic and that is why we go. They are rapidly and discretely replacing all thatched roofs to be completed in April and were renovating a couple of villas so keeping standards high. We had a wonderful holiday and would highly recommend Angsana Ihuru.
