Filitheyo Island Resort

En general la experiencia es muy buena 👍 Sin embargo, el día antes de dejar la isla, estaba bebiendo en el Sunset Bar (Figura 2) y mi experiencia de viaje se vio afectada por un camarero. El plan todo incluido requiere una firma, algo que otros camareros nunca me pidieron y que no estaba mencionado en el folleto de check-in (Figura 1). Pero el camarero fue tan grosero que me pidió que firmara la cuenta con él delante de tanta gente, a pesar de que le había dicho el número de la habitación cuando pedí la cuenta, y el importe de la cuenta también era $0.

El lugar es realmente muy hermoso, el atolón está bastante aislado, solo tiene este resort. Además, Filitheyo está rodeada de arrecifes de coral, pero también organiza numerosas excursiones para practicar snorkel y observar otros animales acuáticos. De vez en cuando les falta un poco de organización, pero esto ciertamente no afectó nuestra estancia. Lo recomiendo y yo mismo volvería.

We visited Filitheyo in July a late 60th birthday treat for my Husband . We have to take our holidays at this time of year as my Husband is allocated holidays, we knew this wasn’t the best time to visit The Maldives but as we had been to another island the previous year in May which again isn’t the best time and had glorious weather we were willing to chance it . We arrived at Male to sunshine and 30 degree heat which continued for the whole holiday. The rain we had was in the evening or at night with just a few cloudy days. We were welcomed off the boat with cold towels and smiling faces followed by a lovely refreshing mocktail. We were then shown details of the island any questions were answered and then were given a jet lag neck/shoulder massage. Very much appreciated after such a long journey. What can I say about Filitheyo having already been to a bigger island with lots of restaurants we were not sure if just a buffet would be enough for us,. It was more than enough the food quality was amazing with different dishes and even though we were there for 2 weeks there were no identical days, some dishes were repeated and we were pleased about that with some. The Island is a lovely size small enough to walk around and so well looked after. The rooms are not posh but are kept spotlessly clean and have everything you need. We were in a water Bungalow which was lovely being able to see the fish as we relaxed on the deck but was a little noisy on nights when it rained or was windy. The Sunset bar and pool area was one of our favourite things about the island. The service the pool and the views were great. The house reef was stunning we saw so many fish unfortunately we didn’t see a turtle but the amount we did see made up for it. The thing that makes the Island so special are the staff. Every single member of staff met you with a smile and wanted to make your holiday special. We had few favourites a special Thank you to Mamun who met us each morning with beds ready and 2 iced coffees. Thanks also to Mazin our waiter and Yaish who helped when Mazin was off. What an amazing team you have at The Sunset Bar including Viraj,Mahesh, Dinusha, Raj and manager Hussain. All the staff in every bar and on the whole island were great. The value for money was great with the great food and service at half the cost of other islands . A. Special Thank you to you all at Filitheyo and can’t wait to return. If there was one negative it is the roofs on the Water Bungelows last 5 need replacing and unfortunately the first view you have of the island is those bungalows covered in green tarpaulin which distracts from the beauty of the Island. Hopefully when we return they will be sorted.
