Unima Grand

8/10 Good

"Hotel is very outdated but staff are extremely helpful & polite & free airport shuttle a bonus. Room was comfortable but was woken up early hours to loud chanting over PA system. No disrespect but not the best location for a hotel. Good for just an overnight stay,"

10/10 Excellent

"We had an amazing time from landing at the airport. Well organised pickup and drop off service. On reaching the resort we were received by friendly host Laisha who took us on a tour of the property. Very polite and well spoken she gave us a detailed description of the amenities and services. The property is very well maintained considering its one of the first resorts in Maldives.Ranjith our house keeper was very meticulous, attended twice a day and replaced towels and water bottles. We had three elderly people and the buggy service was usually prompt. The catering Somnath and the rest were outstanding with live music which added to our wonderful experience. The waiters Tharun,Omkar, Salman were outstanding in their service. They made it a very memorable experience.Thank you🙏"

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at dusitD2 Feydhoo Maldives exceeded every expectation. The location alone is a game-changer — just a 7-minute speedboat transfer from the airport, so you’re sipping a welcome drink on a private island before you’ve even had time to get travel-weary. The overwater villa was stunning: spacious, beautifully appointed, with unobstructed ocean views and gorgeous sunsets right from the deck. Soi, the Thai restaurant, was a standout — authentic flavors in a gorgeous oceanfront setting, and the rest of the dining lineup (Mediterranean, the overwater Chef’s Table) kept every meal interesting. Snorkeling and diving around Feydhoo Wall and the house reef were excellent, and the Namm Spa treatments were some of the best we’ve had. Staff throughout the resort were warm, attentive, and genuinely invested in making the"
