The Finolhu Villas Мальдівська республіка

Club Med Finolhu was absolutely amazing in every way. We were in a private beach sunrise villa, it far exceeded any expectations we had. From the moment we arrived our incredible butler Joodh made our stay a memorable one. Nothing was too much, he went out of his way to in every area possible. My partner Tricia had a birthday whilst there and he contacted me privately to arrange an amazing and romantic day from start to finish culminating in a surprise dinner on the beach. The food was outstanding, the spa and staff were also amazing as were the bar staff. We had an absolute ball on a holiday that will be very difficult to beat. Special thanks again to Joodh, as we left it felt like we were saying farewell to a friend, not just a butler. Regards Chris & Trish.

Absolutely stunning resort with amazing staff that go over and above every time!!!

Joodh our butler was nothing short of a magician!! His service, friendly service and ensuring all our needs we met was done with a friendly smile.

Joodh is an absolute asset to the resort, he made our trip that extra special. By the end of the trip Joodh felt like a friend. Always greening us with a huge smile
And ensuring all our needs were met.

Thank you team for the most amazing vacation. We definitely felt the Maldivian love and hospitality.

My stay here was PHENOMENAL! It’s so peaceful and quiet here unlike other clubmeds with so many people. The villas are so spacious and private. They also have menus for all the meals instead of buffets which makes the food 10/10. The service from all staff is also amazing and they will book all excursions/spa days for you and will bring anything to you if you ask! Joodh was our guy the whole week and took great care of us! The only gripe is that the wine included in the all inclusive could be a better house wine..

My butler Joohd provided us with extremely great service within the days that our trip was booked. He never failed to impress us with the service that he provided. He helped us all trip.

Our visit here last week was by far the best holiday we've had together. The whole experience was fantastic, and it's the first time in years that I've felt sad to go home at the end of a holiday.

We had an overwater sunrise villa which had a small plunge infinity pool overlooking the ocean. Every morning we watched the beautiful colours of the sun coming up as we started our day with tea on the deck.

Our cleaner, Vayyaaz, was very helpful, ensuring that we had everything we needed. He kept our villa looking beautiful and our little chats with him were always so pleasant.

Our butler, Joodh, was always available to answer any questions we had, he kept us updated on the daily activities on offer (we particularly liked the white themed night), and he always had a wonderful smile and sense of humour. For such a young person he has a great understanding of what customer service should be like.

At the bar we enjoyed the daily cocktails (and beers), and mealtimes were also a great experience. I would particularly like to say a HUGE thank you to the chefs for making vegan food available for me. Once I explained to them what I prefer not to eat, they came up with wonderful, tasty options for breakfast, lunch and dinner, making my dining experience the best I've had for a very long time. I am so grateful to all of them. 🙏

I had a meditation session with Love as one of the daily activities, and felt so relaxed afterwards. Love is a great teacher who has given me tips for meditating at home now.

Throughout our stay we enjoyed spotting a variety of marine life right under our feet on the boardwalk and from the restaurant - fish, stingrays, reef sharks etc. We even saw a turtle in the water below the restaurant during our first breakfast, and hermit crabs all over the beach at certain times of the day! I also loved the cheeky little white breasted water birds running around all over the place (they are the national bird of the Maldives).

We got lucky with the weather, as generally September is supposed to get a lot of rain. While we visited, though, it was sunny every day with just a few clouds.

All in all it was a great experience and we would love to go back again one day.

P.S. The only thing I would suggest is that the snorkelling experience be communicated better. I assumed we would be snorkelling over shallow water but instead we were taken out on the ocean to 20 m deep water, with no instruction on the boat on the way there, then told to jump in as soon as we were at the designated spot. As this was my first snorkelling experience, it unnerved me and I chose to get back on the boat. To be fair, I should have asked for more information before we left too.
