At beginning of May I was staying for 5 nights together with my wife & 12yo daughter at Ritz Carlton Maldives Fari Islands. What a fantastic stay! I booked a sunset overwater villa and it was a great choice. Everything is minimalistic but luxurious with all that you need for having a dreamlike holiday. But what's truly unique is the resort staff, very professional but discreet. They made us feel spoiled with each occasion. A big thank to our aris meeha (butler) Ford, we had an instant bonding with him, he was like the genie from the bottle, appearing always at the right time and doing all his duties without feeling it. Our appreciation goes to chef Leonardo Valls who manages all restaurants on the island, we tried them all and we had amazing dinner experiences each evening. Our favorite is Arabesque, where chef Khaled created incredible dishes from such simple ingredients... although very young, he put a lot of passion in his work and we had exciting chats about Indian & Egyptian food. For sure, he will become a great chef and we promised him that wherever his career takes him, we will come and eat from his food. Last but not least, a special mention for the crew from La Locanda: Max, Ahnat, Ferhwaz, Ismaeel, Jessica and all their colleagues spoiled us in every morning with fantastic Indian & Maldivian specialties! Long story short: we had 5 incredible days at this property and for sure that we'll plan another trip in the next future! And another thing: we witnessed one on the most beautiful sunsets ever! Highly recommended!
