Kandolhu Hotels with Breakfast

When we arrived for our 6th visit to this amazing island in January we were concerned to hear that the previous Resort Managers had moved on and a new team had recently arrived. We should not have worried! Luciana and Claudio were the perfect hosts and it felt like they had been there for many years! The island itself is very small and has an exclusive feel to it, there are only 30 rooms and even when “full” you still feel like you are the only people on the island. The core of what makes this resort so good is undoubtedly the wonderful staff. Even the gardeners are so happy to see you and wish you a good day. I believe there are 140 staff on the island to look after your every wish and I will not be able to name them all but I must say a huge thank you to the following guys and girls who became friends; Estela, Elvira, Naveen, Deshan, Maan, Gayan (who made us his own cocktail) Ameen (who wrote us a sweet poem!), Nasru (who cut my hair for me) Sharif and Anjelita. I must also mention the chefs Ragu and Justin who coped with our increasingly eccentric lunch requests! The reef around Kandolhu is perfect for snorkelling and the WaterSports guys, led by Adam, are very knowledgeable and helpful. Overall this is a perfect resort and we will be back!
