Is it hype or the real deal?

The beachfront villas are incredible, featuring a private plunge pool and magnificent ocean views. The staff's attentiveness and friendliness made our stay memorable, while the food variety perfectly complemented our relaxing escape.

Even though the overall experience was delightful, the restaurant prices were surprisingly high, with some items costing far more than at local stores.

We had an incredible stay at this resort with our kids! The beachfront villa was gorgeous and right by the clear blue water. We loved the range of activities available, like snorkeling and the amazing marine lab classes, making it perfect for family bonding.

In my wife’s opinion, a kids' club would be great for more tailored activities for the little ones.

Perfect beach getaway

Just back from 4 nights at this little paradise! The beach villas are so cozy, and the cabana was perfect for lounging out. We snorkeled right off our door and saw turtles! Also, the staff went out of their way for my gf's bday—amazing dinner setup! Only downside was the dinner menu could be more varied.

Incredible staff friendliness!

the beachfront pool villa was a cozy escape, with easy access to the beach and the gentle sound of the ocean lulling us to sleep. the staff was super friendly, especially the team at the restaurant who made dining a delight. we also enjoyed the renowned banyan tree spa, which offered a fantastic massage on the beach.

would recommend

the beach was a bit crowded at times (not too bad though! ). but we enjoyed the private pool, the sunset views from our villa were breathtaking, and the snorkeling was unforgettable with all the vibrant fish.

We loved the beachside yoga sessions and snorkeling with beautiful marine life. Swimming with manta rays was a highlight!

Felt very at home, no complaints at all.

great stay , but room for improvement

The beachfront pool villa provided direct beach access, and the gentle sound of the waves created a serene atmosphere. Staff were incredibly attentive, especially during dining times. Activities like night fishing with local chefs made for memorable experiences. The stunning sea view from my villa made the mornings feel extraordinary.

The villa could use minor maintenance tweaks to enhance overall comfort.

incredible family experience with personalized service at banyan tree vabbinfaru

Exceptional service, stunning beach, delightful dining.

The beachfront villa was incredible—super clean and beautifully decorated. The private pool and jacuzzi were perfect for relaxing right outside. I loved that it was right on the beach. They also provided nice slippers and great toiletries. A dedicated staff member came twice a day to tidy up, and they even decorated the room for my birthday, which was a sweet touch!

This was just an appropriate option for a weekend break in Male with incredible value for money. I loved the welcoming staff, especially the memorable service from the long-time waiter who remembered my drink order. Bring your beach gear as there are beautiful spots to relax under the sun.

Banyan Tree Vabbinfaru was an ideal family-friendly resort. The beachfront villa was spacious, clean, and well-appointed, boasting a lovely plunge pool and a stunning sunset view. The staff was incredibly attentive, making us feel at home, especially with their personalized service in the restaurant and during activities like snorkeling.

No significant negatives encountered during the stay.
