Vaali Maldives Island Escapes & Dive

It was a perfect stay in Vaali … we already stay 2there in 2018! The hotel is perfect: only 9 rooms very well equipped, clean, minimal and with the typical Maldivian bathroom without roof. The staff is kind and polite, trying in every way to satisfy each need you have. The food is fantastic and is made by an Indian guy; the cuisine is healthy, rise, pasta, chicken, fish (especially tuna), vegetables and exotic fruit. No alcoholic drinks and meat pork not allowed. The only negative remark is on the excursions that we did with the close Alimas hotel because the ratio between price and quality was better, but I know that Vaali will improve also in it.

Already arrival showed us that we will be taken care of with great care. The very kind owner was waiting for us at the port, who introduced himself to us and told us everything important about the island during the journey to hotel which was less than one hundred meters. When we arrived at the hotel, we received an equally warm welcome from his employees. After accommodate in, we were taken care of by the very nice guy Susil, who take us on a small tour of the island, show us where the bikini beach is, where we can meet dolphins if we are lucky and where is best place for snorkeling. Compared to Maafushi, which we also visited, you don't have to go on any trips, but you can do it yourself with a snorkelling mask, there are countless corals to discover and a huge number of different types of fish. Hotel also providing diving and trips to snorkling spots with two proffesionals divers. On the first evening after dinner, Susil's colleague Sanjok asked us if we would like to go with him to the port to feed the sharks. Sharks sail here every evening and spending the night here. In addition to the sharks, you can also see giant manta rays here! The feeding was great and Sanjok told us that he goes like this every evening. After feeding, Sanjok showed us around the rest of the island, showing us local shops and giving us all sorts of tips, eventually we became friends. Sanjok is a very nice person and so is his colleague Susil, they will take care of you with maximum care throughout your stay. But one who we can't should forget to highlighted is definitely chef Anthony! A nice smiling young man who prepared fantastic meals. Everything was very tasty and well seasoned, we loved his meals. The owner must be very proud of all the employees. Thank's them we felt at home here. Great experience and we'll be glad to visit them all again!
