"5 stars all round - superb staff, friendly and efficient, beautiful resort and excellent dining options."

"Amazing 3-day stay at Ranthari! Rezaul and the entire friendly, professional team made us feel welcome and taken care of. The rooms were modern, spacious and very clean. (It would be nice to have more hooks or a clothes line to dry out our swim gear). The food was fabulous, and we loved eating our meals outside under the palms at the beach. (We stayed at a nearby luxury resort after we left Ranthari and did not recieve the same level of service and care.) The Ukhulas tourist beach is long and walkable, with a beautiful, long reef an easy swim from the shore. "

"Amazing! Beautiful rooms, fantastic food, great staff… one of the best dive outfits I’ve been with… the whole experience was just fabulous and will certainly go back. Highly recommend to everyone I have spoken to since staying there. "

"Location, villas and staff were all exceptional."

"top spot. "

"That was a fantastic vacation. This resort is amazing and the food is excellent. I do recommend booking all inclusive to enjoy the best restaurants and bars at max. "

"Absolutely amazing trip from start to end. The water bungalow was incredibly spacious and well equipped. The all inclusive was excellent value for money and the food was delicious. The staff were friendly and welcoming and provided an amazing service. Thank you so much for an amazing time. We didn’t want to leave."

"Wonderful experience. The house reef and the small number of villas are the main attractions "

"The only reason I did not give an overall excellent for this property is the food. Breakfast and lunch were excellent but sometimes the dinners were less than great. There was no choice only what was cooked on the night. Also it could be because as a westerner I am used to only the best boneless cuts of meat, but on occasion the meat was inedible due to bones and gristle. A shame because the flavours were very good and the staff were excellent. For future reference a description of the food would be useful. If I was to return to this venue I would probably only eat vegetarian. The island itself was quite small (not a criticism) and easy to walk around, the people were quite friendly. Overall I would say this property fit in the backpackers / divers niche. As I was not looking for the usual Maldives experience this was an advantage for me. The only issue as far as the accommodation was concerned is that my bed linens did not appear to be changed the whole 2 weeks I was there, but I could be mistaken if the sheets were washed then put back on the same day. The private beach at the property was wonderful and very private - I had it all to myself for my whole visit. Didn’t worry me that I had to be covered from neck to knee for religious reasons but would not recommend swimming in your beach cover up. The public beach at the other end of the island (10 / 15 minutes walk) did not look all that well kept so I only went for a look once and then stayed on my private beach."
