Sun Island Resort And Spa

An introduction to Sun Island Resort And Spa

Sun Island Resort and Spa is the largest resort in the Maldives. It boasts the most facilities, the biggest pool and offers guests every modern convenience in a spectacularly beautiful setting. It really is a complete resort, breaking away from the typical feeling of a Maldivian island, with something for everybody. In fact most guests use bicycles to get around on the island as it is so large. A choice of restaurants offers western and oriental cuisine, delicious buffets and set menu meals as well as an a la carte menu and 24-hour service. Recreational facilities include a fully equipped diving centre, with courses for beginners and more experienced scuba divers, a sports centre with one of the best equipped gyms in the Maldives and a watersports centre offering a wide range of excellent watersports. It even has a huge video games centre for the children! The beach on the island is one of the best beaches in the Maldives and is very wide and great for sunbathing, or for the more energetic the clear blue lagoon is great for snorkelling. For those guests seeking the ultimate in pampering and relaxation the island boasts the largest spa in the Maldives offering an extensive range of treatments. The spacious treatment rooms are self-contained and equipped with facilities such as whirlpool and rose petal baths.

The flight to Male was long and cramped, very litle leg room for everyone. However when you arrive at Male you immediately forget how cramped and tired you are. The Seaplane transfer is a must as the views are breathtaking. On arrival at Sun Island... more on this review
