Positive: A Truly Enchanting Escape to Makunudu Island Our recent stay at Makunudu Island was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, we were enveloped in an atmosphere of tranquility and natural beauty that truly captivated us. While the bungalows might show a touch of age, this in no way detracted from the overall experience. In fact, it almost added to the island's rustic charm. What truly shone was the incredible ambiance of being on this idyllic island, especially when shared with someone dear. There's a certain magic in the air that allows you to simply be yourselves and soak in the breathtaking surroundings. The culinary experience was a definite highlight. Each meal was a delight, showcasing fresh and delicious flavors that left us completely satisfied. The staff at Makunudu also deserve high praise. They were incredibly welcoming and helpful, always ready with a smile and assistance, yet they perfectly balanced this with a respectful distance, allowing us the space and privacy to fully enjoy our time together and the island's serenity. The natural beauty of Makunudu is simply stunning. Whether exploring the vibrant underwater world while snorkeling or diving, or simply gazing at the crystal-clear turquoise waters surrounding the island, every moment felt like a postcard come to life. Our holiday on Makunudu Island was more than just a getaway; it was an enchanting experience that has left a lasting impression. We were so utterly charmed by the island's unique atmosphere and beauty that we are already dreaming of our return.
Negative: Our only minor disappointment was the wait for the speedboat transfer upon arrival at Malรฉ airport. We had to wait for another couple who were also heading to Makunudu, which resulted in a delay of over three hours at the airport. After a long journey, the heat and tiredness made this wait somewhat unpleasant.

Positive: all very well, a real island, wild but with all the fundamental services of a resort, ideal for couples, for families like ours (two children aged 19 and 22), for everyone. you can feel comfortable but if you want to have fun just go on excursions and meet the fantastic diving guys. you can snorkel everywhere or almost everywhere around the island, fish, turtles, sharks, manta rays....we saw everything. excellent food, wide choice, very friendly staff. large and clean rooms. the sunset was wonderful... one evening there was a boy playing the guitar at sunset... exceptional
Summary: perfect

Positive: Our stay in Makunudu was surreal. The island is very small and you walk everywhere - don't bother bringing shoes, you will not need them. It's a bit like being in a jungle. It was raining a lot when we went, but because of all the trees, we were protected from it. The staff is incredibly nice and available. Very genuine and always with a smile on their face. You can tell they have a good life living and working on that island. Lasantha was our main server, and he was so nice. Looked after us really well. The bungalow rooms were big enough, and I loved the interior and the lighting. The bed was huge and very comfortable. I loved the open shower. The coral reef is incredible, I have seen so many fish, turtles, colours and variety. I also did two scuba diving lessons, and that was for me the highlight of my holiday. We also used the spa, and were very happy about it. Loved how it was located two steps away from the beach (I mean, the island was very small, so no chance it would have been located differently). It really felt like going to a quite and relaxing paradise, and I prefer this type of resort over bigger commercial ones any day.
Negative: The only comment I would leave is to improve the food choice. I would give this a 7/10. I preferred the buffet over the fixed dinner menu. The buffet had ok variety, and too much of the same type of fish. I really did not like the dinner. Too big portions. The taste was a bit bland. We did love the Maldivian night food and the BBQ night food though. I would recommend to revisit it and make a wider selection of food. Also, not all bungalows have a nice access to the sea. To reach the water we had to go down a "cliff", there was not a big stretch of sand and I could not access the water as it was too rocky from where our room was. I had to go around other's people front beach to get a good access. It made accessibility a problem, so I was mainly using the main common beach. Maybe have a look at the map before going and request a room with good beach access before hand. Having said that, overall it still was a 9/10 for me, and I would go back.
Summary: It is truly a paradise on earth and a pinch me moment
