Hotel Dengan Spa di Laamu Atoll, Maldives

Rahaa Resort, Lammu Maldives Stayed 13 nights from 20/9/24 This resort is best at 1 star, only thing going for this resort is some staff are really friendly. They really did try to make the best out of a bad situation, but are limited by the Management who are aware of all the issues - but choose not to do anything about it. There were only 26 other guests during our stay and most of them we spoke to said they would never come back here and will go back to the other options in Maldives. Prior to arriving, we completed all the required forms to confirm International flight times and the fact we are vegetarians. We were told there would be no issues and the domestic flight would be arranged within a maximum of three hours. On arrival, we landed at Male airport 6:30 in morning. We looked and could not find the ‘sign’ we were told to look for. We then asked another Rep who kindly called the Rahaa rep to be told he was running late. We stood and waited and he finally appeared 20 minutes later. We were then escorted to the domestic airport lounge and told to wait. After 30 minutes we asked what was happening and they kept saying they are arranging the transfer. We asked every 30-45 minutes, even for a timeframe and were told ‘they are working on it’. At around 10:45 we were finally taken from the lounge, got checked in for flight to Kadhdhoo which was at 12:55. We were then told to wait in the gate area. We asked to go back to the lounge and were told there is a 4 hour limit so cannot. We had travelled from the UK and now waiting just over 6 hours, double what we had been told before arriving. Once finally at the Resort, the communal areas were all traditional in appearance and appeared clean. We were taken to the room (222), again on first impressions as you walk in, it all seemed fine. Water pressure was good, shower head, tray and areas were clean - however the sink taps were very corroded. They worked, but very strange as they looked very out of place. After the long journey, we simply wanted to rest and decided the taps were usable so did not ask to change rooms. Overall the rooms are nice, but half of the bathroom has no roof. When you go in you’re with all types of flying and crawling insects and next door can hear whatever you do in there. It looked great in the pictures and will be personal preference, but we did not like bathroom at all and would avoid this style in the future. As we went to explore the resort, we found the meals were set times and outside of these, there are no snacks/food options - unless you pay for them. We had booked All Inclusive and have never experienced this before in any country we have travelled. Meal wise, the first night was an Indian night so the food was plentiful. The only minor niggle was the chappati’s were made from ‘all purpose flour’ so not healthy for you at all. As there was rice, this is a suitable alternative - but having rice every day got tedious. Breakfast wise, there was a variety but the sa
