    “The location is very close to the airport, the villas were exceptional, spacious, clean and amazing. The resort has so many facilities, restaurants and activities.”

  • Property is good but long way to go for food and hygiene areas.

    “Property is close to airport, 15 mins boat ride. It’s very well maintained and neat. Beautiful rooms and private beach access to beach villas is superb. Staff is good and polite and helpful most of the times. Checkin and check out was smooth. Shared boat ride was also very comfortable and arranged as per flight timings. Our butler Arshad was very helpful and helped us with information accurately. Buggy facility is good but with delays often. They provide bicycles to ride around property which is great. No offers or discounts on FnB in the property. One needs to take membership by paying high membership fees to avail offers and discounts which makes no sense. Free activities arranged by property is not so impressive.”

  • unfortunately, I did not feel comfortable during my stay at the hotel.

    “Our stay at SO/ Maldives was truly exceptional from start to finish. The resort is stunning, the villas are beautiful, and the turquoise waters are exactly what you dream of when visiting the Maldives. The food exceeded our expectations — every meal was delicious, and the birthday dinner organized for my husband was one of the highlights of our trip. What made the biggest difference, however, was the service. A special thank you to Maria, who went above and beyond throughout our stay. She was always attentive, professional, kind, and genuinely cared about making our experience perfect. Every member of the team made us feel welcome, and any request was handled with care and efficiency. Thank you SO/ Maldives for creating such wonderful memories. We would happily return and highly recommend this resort to anyone looking for a luxury Maldivian escape. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
