We loved Sun Island. We stayed in one of the stilt houses and it was incredible. We were able to walk down the stairs directly into the ocean. The view was awesome, the room was good, and the facilities on the island were good. There is a free shuttle to the sister island of Holiday Island, which has better snorkeling than Sun Island. The only things we didn't like were the Whale Shark excursion and the shark and ray feedings. The Whale Shark excursion was unlimited in numbers, so when...

My husband and I had a fantastic week long stay at the Radisson Blu Resort in the Maldives in September 2020. This is a new resort that opened in August 2020. The resort is on its own island called Huruelhi island. It’s a gorgeous place with white sand beaches and crystal clear turquoise water. The snorkeling is great. We saw lots of colorful fishes, sharks, and a sea turtle while snorkeling off the beach. Be sure to arrange a whale shark excursion with the hotel at the dive center; it’s an...

They are on top of your entire stay. From flight arrival to departure. The food is so wonderful and last but not least pictures and videos do not do this place justice. Breathtakingly Beautiful! Thank you for an amazing experience.

Their warmth and friendliness, coupled with the politeness and willingness to assist from the entire staff, truly set the tone for a perfect vacation.

Great staff! They're all extremely nice and lovely;) however, all inclusive is not 'ALL' inclusive... It's quite a wrong name - you have no cocktails included ;(((
But there is great food and excursions are also really nice. For fans of snorkeling it is the right place to visit!;) you have the reef basically everywhere around the island.

Two things stood out: 1) Chef Ali's attentiveness to my gluten allergy. I was treated to bespoke meals (especially desserts) as well as gluten-free options made available at request. 2) The joy of the staff as they did their job, especially their efforts to upgrade me to the finest property available as a solo traveler. The conditions were pristine.
