Hotel 5 Bintang Terbaik di Kanifushi

We spent an amazing vacation on the island with our family. We had a 2-bedroom family beach villa. Immediately upon arrival we were being taken care off. Our luggage was picked up and we were brought to the Airplane Terminal in Male. Since we had to wait a bit for our plane we spent some time in the Lounge there where we could already download the Ressort App (very good idea!), do the check-in etc. After a short flight of about 30mins we arrived at Kanifushi. On the Jetty we were welcomed by Ressort Staff, playing drums and were walked down to the reception, where we first got some refreshments (Sparkling wine or coconut) and a cold towel and we got to know our GRO, Nihad, with whom we exchanged phone numbers and created a WhatsApp Group through which we received daily updates and could also ask questions and requests. Throughout our whole stay, this worked very well, all questions very immediately answered, all requests were taken care off. Additionally to the WhatsApp Group and the Ressort App we also got a Bus-Tracker App indicating the real-time position of the Ressorts shuttle Busses - Golf Buggies, actually, going back and forth frequently. We didn’t use it too often, but whenever we were walking and a bus was passing, the driver slowed down and asked whether we‘d like to hop on. The Room: The Villa was amazing, with 2 large beds, a couch, a TV, an open-air bath room, shower, etc. The Minibar, which is refilled every day contained way more than we could possibly consume. From Soft-Drinks (Cola, Fanta, Sprite,Schweppes) over Beer (different types) and White-Wine to some snacks, like chocolate bites. Also red wine was available as well as coffee and tee and also Chips and Cookies. The Facilities: We used the club-house (X-Box, Billard, Table,Tennis,….) , the Dive Center (Oceanix), the „Spirit“ (Pool and Restaurant), the Ceylon Bliss (Sri Lankan Street food), the Sunset (Pool and Restaurant), the Pier6 (Restaurant, Fine Dining) and the „Spice“ (Main Restaurant) as well as the little shop. Food in all the restaurants was excellent! With the kids we mainly went to the „Spice“ since it was the most convenient with the high quality buffet with a lot of different dishes and also a lot of fresh made meals, like a Tepanyaki, Tandoori Bread, Sushi, Pasta, Crepes and Dosa a Breakfast and so on. The complete list would just be too long for the review. The „Sunset“ offering a variety smaller dishes for lunch. If you are travelling without kids, there is also an adult-only pool there. All other pools are also open for the kids. The „Ceylon Bliss“ offers one meal only, which is a variety of Sri Lankan dishes, small but very tasty and a very good mix. Whenever we‘ve been there, we got something different, which made it even more interesting. „Pier6“ we used for our complementary fine dining and - what else - it was amazing. We had the 3-course Menu, with Fish, Seafood, etc. For the Kids they even had a Kids Menu and they could mix as they liked.
