Kudakurathu Hotels with Wi-Fi

The majority of 5 point reviews led us to visit this newly opened island. In recent years we have visited great resorts like Veligandu or Robinson Maldives, so our view may be more critical. First of all, the plus points: - a large island with a lot of potential (once everything is finished) - very stylish and tasteful furnishings in the restaurants, bar, cafe... - 4 bottles of water every day and a fairly well-stocked minibar that is refilled daily (not all products were included in the all-inclusive package) - Italian and Asian restaurant and cafe, a limited selection is included in the all-inclusive package (e.g. ice cream in the cafe, you had to pay extra) - our beach villa with private pool was relatively large and tasteful - fan also in the bathroom ( important) - Against mosquitoes incense sticks, vaporizer and skin spray free of charge (was also urgently needed because without it was absolutely impossible. My wife had over 100 mosquito bites on the first day) - great sunset cruise, great crew But above all the many, great employees! Particularly friendly and courteous people who fulfilled our wishes quickly and reliably and with a lot of joy! Representing many - our great host SANDEEPA (Sandy), who through his quick intervention found a good solution for the first bungalow with the catastrophic beach paved with sandbags and was always available for all of our wishes. - our kind and thorough room service NAAFIZ, for whom nothing was too much to beautify and clean our room - our ASHI in the restaurant, who pampered us and “served” us in a good mood - - last but not least our artist SETARE, among others whose expert guidance resulted in a great portrait. Unfortunately, where there is a lot of light, there are also shadows. Avoidable and unnecessary shadow: - the first bungalow assigned to us was a disaster on the beach - see photo. Our request (sunset) was also not taken into account. Since we didn't want to lie with our loungers on the piled up sandbags, we were already thinking about leaving. The beach in front of our bungalow was about 1 m wide. The general manager Mr. Steinhilber said that it is just erosion. Well, you certainly shouldn’t offer such a “location”! And apologize for it. -There is still a lot of construction going on on the island! Both in the middle of the island and on entire sections of the beach. Circumnavigating the island was not possible at all. - a diesel tractor ran all day. The smell of diesel and construction noise is actually not something we want to “enjoy” in the Maldives. - Some infrastructure could not yet be used. - Completely wrong: truck tires, metal canisters and loose plastic pipes in the water (near the beach) Villa height 501… - The food in the main restaurant was a bit monotonous. We are used to something much different from Robinson Maldives etc! If you expect a real steak: none, or you had to pay for it despite being all-inclusive
