A wonderful holiday resort where we treated like royalty. Courteous friendly staff from cleaners to management. Couldn’t have asked for more as a way to celebrate 50 years of marriage.

Absolutely amazing, you need to stay in an overwater sunset villa w/ pool, this gets you exclusive club access basically to yourself and many other added benefits/perks and you must do all inclusive or the Grand all inclusive. Only complaint is my wife is the pickiest eater you'll meet so it took some adjustment to find meals she liked (even from the kids menu) but all restaurants were super accommodating in customizing her meal to anything she wanted and by day 2 we had her eating like a king.

Lovely beach and snorkelling opportunities. Friendly staff but could do with better training (not consistent). Very child friendly. Decor quite dated but kept generally clean. Food quality requires improvement for 5-star rating (first time in Maldives so cannot say if this is resort-specific but don't expect Dubai 5-star hotel food).

The hotel is very nice and the staff is very attentive: Starting from the dive base team (Stefania, Ivan and Sven), over Anish (fitness center) to Masoud, who bakes his wonderful Naan bread and serves it to each table individually. We enjoyed a relaxing holiday in a beautiful part of the south Ari atoll.

Beautiful island and good place for snorkeling, carol and fish are so close to you. I really love the Aqua bar, nice view and every evening I will stay there with a cool drink. I also see beautiful sunrise in my room. Really nice place to stay.

We had an amazing time at Centara Grand. The place is absolutely beautiful and the snorkeling straight out of the water villas is amazing. Food is super nice as well and the buffet restaurant was always varied so it never felt samey. All the staff was super friendly but we would like to thank in special Monir who would do our room and every day would leave a beautiful drawing made with sand or other natural materials on our villa floor.

We definitely enjoyed our stay at the resort. It was very peaceful and beautiful. Everyone was welcoming and polite. Well organized and neat. The things I would suggest they improve on is their restaurant options, different food options each day, for those with longer stay-a trip to explore the city, and more nightlife/activities. Overall, it was an amazing experience and will definitely be coming back.

We loved the property, we loved how friendly, helpful and nice the staff was. They took care of our villa like it was their own home and you never see this anywhere. What I didn't like was that they need to set up long chairs for the family villas, we requested and they set it up for us but we didn't realize we could request it until the last two days.

This is my second stay at Centara Grand and it was infinitely better than my first. The majority of the staff remembered me and treated me well. I was pleased with everything at Centara Geand! Mr. Hassan at Best Dives is the primary reason for my second visit. He has amazing patience and delivers superlative customer service.

remote, yet gorgeous and quiet island. What a beauty. Staff are from various Asian countries and all very nice. rebottled water is a problem for us, we had diarrhea the first night. there were no bottled waters at the island hotel, so we had to boil the water in our room to work around the water quality issue.

We planned this to be our trip of a lifetime and it certainly lived up to the hype. Rooms are beautiful and private. Amanullah took care of us, bringing us buckets of ice, restocking the mini bar, cleaning the room, and leaving sweet touches daily. The ocean is teeming with life just steps from the door. We took several excursions to fish annd see whale sharks, both hugely successful, and snorkeled for hours along the house reef around the atoll. Food was impeccable and had a large variety. Hospitality everywhere-from food service to reception to spa staff-was incredible. We couldn’t have asked for a better vacation. Highly highly recommend.

We would just like to say a whole hearted thank you to all the team at Centara Grand for making our stay the most magical and memorable! This was our second visit after being there 8 years ago - we were so excited to return to our favourite place! The level of service was just as amazing as the first time and they were so accommodating in every way. A special shout out to Nabeel who made sure our stay was a smooth and enjoyable as possible and was always on hand with any queries we had. Islam our room cleaner also did a fantastic job and was extremely friendly. We got engaged the second night of our stay with a fantastic beach dinner and now we have memories for life. We can't wait to return in the not so distant future! Thanks so much again!
