Nice video. What was the total resort accommodation cost? Transfer cost from male ? Was it all inclusive?

[@AdventureCoupleUK]

7 Nights in a Beach Villa was £4,575 (book early and direct on their website). Premium All Inclusive, which is literally that. Mini fridge topped up every day - with beer, spirits, tonics, mixers etc. 2 Excursions - for us Sunset Cruise and Sand Bank excursion. Massage for 2, romantic beach dinner - all included. Flights with FlyDubai were £1,200 (for 2, from Dammam, Saudi Arabia) Sea Plane return transfers £610 (for 2, from Male) Then there were a few incidentals at the resort, shop etc. which is added to the final bill. I would say, budget for £1,000 per night the you'll be about right. Expensive, but we'd pay it again and again!

11:34 why is there a no swimming sign on the right side?

[@youniyouwo2024]

I love your video! I have booked the resort recently. I am very concern about the snorkeling in the resort. The corals and fish seen in the last part of this video are very beautiful! Is this coral area seen near the water bungalow? How far is the reef from the beach? Is it easy to swim to the reef? I am a swimming beginner 😂

[@robertfisher2844]

I have been to the maldives a couple of times not this island thou .they are very stunninv in every way .looks like you both had a good time i would highly recommend everyone go to the maldives its stunning .

[@AdventureCoupleUK]

I agree Robert. Unbelievable trip, and would happily go back to Cinnamon if funds allow. It was amazing!

[@robertfisher2844]

It looks like a lovely place. I've done untold Islands in the Caribbean, and trust me, the maldives is the most stunning .I hope you do get a chance to return .

[@robertfisher2844]

What was the coral reef like there was it good for diving or just for snorkelling .some islands have house reefs on them..thanks for your reply earlier

[@AdventureCoupleUK]

@@robertfisher2844 We only did snorkeling, but there were diving trips from the landing jetty - there is a dive school based there, and they go off diving with nurse sharks. However, we got chatting to a couple who said the reefs directly off the island were fairly sparce in colour, although marine life was amazing. The sand bank excursion saw way better colour in the corals and some of the guys saw turtles and rays there.

[@robertfisher2844]

Thank you for your feedback on the diving there .do apologise for the late reply. I didn't see the reply .I'm sure that what you see just off the island is good anyway I've done a few dive trips before on other islands, and it's been good, but to be honest, that's what you would expect in the maldives.

Going here in November - how many island drop offs before Velifushi on the sea plane?

[@AdventureCoupleUK]

There were 2 from the seaport then into Velifushi. Takes around 30-40 mins. Hope you have a great time 👍🏻👍🏻

[@jackanakanory72]

@@AdventureCoupleUK Thanks, really looking forward to it, it it always like that or do they sometimes go direct?

[@robjones7556]

Hi Steve, great video (ignore the hater!), thanks. We go there next month and are looking forward to it. We are all-inclusive so assume we don’t have the trips included. We are planning to bring our own snorkel equipment but any other top tips you would have to make the holiday perfect? Thanks.

[@AdventureCoupleUK]

Hi Rob. You've picked a dream destination. Get in contact with the team there and request Premium all Inclusive. They may well see this, but we checked prices and they shifted quite a bit to the point where PAI worked out 'just' over what we had paid, and we booked really early. I kind of complained about booking early and that we committed to the price at the time, but subsequently there seemed to be as good a deals there for PAI much later - so what was the point in securing a room early doors etc - anyway, they said they would include PAI benefits to our package as we had booked way ahead of time. It's worth asking - as it includes 3 excursions - which are really worth it, and a romantic beach dinner. Like I said in the video, we stayed at one of the beach villas, which in our opinion was much better. It wasn't a budget thing for us, as we like the beach - which you don't get in the water villas. Hope you have a great time - if you have any further questions just let me know.

[@mmeinnuel]

All inclusive or all inclusive premiun? Thanks

[@paulettehall4614]

Island is nice but the villas seem pretty close together

[@AdventureCoupleUK]

They do appear, or may well be closer than other resorts but our experience would suggest that isn't noticeable on the ground. There's foliage between each villa, and when we were there it seemed deserted although we were told they are 90% occupancy throughout the year. It is very well balanced - and as you'll notice from the video there's no evidence of crowding.

The video quality is really bad.

[@AdventureCoupleUK]

Sorry about that. I thought it was OK? 🤷‍♂️

[@jellycoding]

@@AdventureCoupleUK But it's not. It's looks grainy. But it looks like you only have some kind of bad 1080p version. Why?

[@AdventureCoupleUK]

@@jellycodingAm I missing something? Am I suddenly accountable to you? You’ve made it clear you don’t like the quality, which is fine - but I’m not here to answer to you? What a weird comment 😂

[@corinnekerr7403]

Hi I’m coming here for my honeymoon 4th August. We booked all inclusive do we still need to pay for things? As you said around £1000 a night 😮 lol x thanks x
