Family Hotels & Resorts in Bandos Island from AU$228

"We visited Kurumba 12 years ago so this was a return to 'paradise'. The welcome at the airport and transfer to the resort by speedboat was efficient and hassle free, however it did cost $324 for the two of us, something we did not discover until a couple of days before arrival. The Kurumba has a wide range of facilities from the Spa to the glass bottomed boat and tennis courts and in that respect it lives you up its 5* rating. However as occupancy rates were down the specialist restaurants were only open for a couple of days a week, it would have been helpful to have been told this when we arrived. Our beachside bungalow was as ideal as expected although it did look a bit tired. All the staff were very professional, welcoming and attentive. I was particularly impressed with the guys who were constantly cleaning the beaches and common grounds, also the nightly singer was very good and entertaining. The noise of sea planes taking off from Male for the islands was however somewhat intrusive and not as we remembered. Overall we had a very good and enjoyable stay."

"Booked and paid for full board and wasn’t able to have dinner or lunch. Was told dinner not available as kitchen was closing in 20 minutes and was told lunch not available as it is after checkout time. "

"Great place with great people"

"The airport transfers were punctual and efficient. Location is central to many attractions like park, mosque, fish market, restaurants. Staff is very helpful."

"Beautiful beach view room. Light and beautifully furnished. Great aircon and fan. Bathroom was amazing - both with the size of it and the style. Bath, 'outdoor' shower, and areas to keep clothes to dry. Beach towels also provided."

"A very nice holiday"

"It was a great location and the staff was very helpful and friendly! Definitely recommend! "

"Our honeymoon at Villa Nautica was unforgettable! We stayed in a Water Villa for six nights, and we had the most amazing time from activities to food to drinks. Our host, Zameer, was fantastic, he handled our reservations, minibar restocks, and explained our package perfectly. At the Lagoon buffet the service was unforgettable. The Chef personally guided my vegan husband through the menu, our waiters (Arjun, Salman, and Tharun) were incredibly sweet and always remembered our drink orders. Novi at the Lagoon front desk was very sweet, helpful, kind and funny. Kartik was a great instructor for our Discover Scuba experience. We had so much fun diving! We loved the Captain’s Bar, since the waiters were so attentive and knowledgeable about the drinks. We tried the sauna, steam room, and jacuzzi for the first time and that was so much fun. The all inclusive package was definitely worth it! We enjoyed delicious drinks, the incredible Japanese restaurant, and snacks at Dhaavani. Having snorkeling gear, canoes, and the sunset fishing tour included made the trip even more fun and memorable. I want to thank the entire team for making our honeymoon so special!"
