My husband and I stayed at the cinnamon Velifushi on the last leg of our honeymoon. This resort was the best possible way to end our trip as they exceeded our expectations. Our villa was spacious and immaculately cleaned everyday. The selection for the excursions were great, and there was always something to do if you chose not to relax at the beach. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful as well. Special thank you to Eema, who took care of us, answered all our questions and helped make the transfers seamless.

It was the perfect honeymoon ! The island is a natural beauty. There is the atoll that you can enjoy by walking on it. Turqoise ocean waters and white coral sands are something to behold. Rooms were spacious, exquisite and clean. The room service cleans them every morning. The staff are lovely and super helpful. There is also a diving Center which you can book dives, jetski rides etc. Overall perfect experience !

We stayed at the resort for our honeymoon in one of the sunset water villa rooms. The resort blew away our already high expectations with their service and the facilities. The staff accommodated our requests and everything required for our stay was available at the resort. Special mention goes to the staff at Iru restaurant, the dive centre and the spa (we visited twice!). Would highly recommend this resort for anyone looking for a place to experience Maldives!

The resort and the staff were amazing. The executive chef Chau was a highlight of our trip. She was always so friendly, welcoming and up for a chat! The menu had a great variety and changed daily so you could always try something different. Location was perfect for snorkling, however, bring your own snorkles as they are not included and can add up very quickly over a few days. The suites are definitely worth it as they were amazing!

Faultless resort. We stayed for a week in one of the water villas with half board. The room was super spacious, cleaned twice a day. There are fish, baby sharks, reys, all at your footstep. There were plenty of food options and activities. Staff were super friendly and helpful. Excursions were a bit pricey but it's to be expected as you are quite isolated

The whole experience was amazing, the villa was amazing with perfect views and being able to snorkle right off your balcony was perfect, the waters are crystal clear and warm and marine life is out of this world. The staff and service is the best I have ever experienced, the food is plentiful and of top quality. definitely go fully inclusive, it is so worth it. I rate this 10/10 as it is truly superb.

I visited on my honeymoon.Outstandingly beautiful nature and facilities.It is an island with few insects and cleanliness.When you go out to sea from the water bungalow, there are many kinds of fish and you can snorkel.The restaurant's all-inclusive food was delicious and varied every day and I enjoyed it.There are plenty of activities and you can stay on the island for 3 days without getting bored.Mihara, a staff member who helped us during beach activities, and pooja, a restaurant staff member, communicated the best in our poor English.All the staff were wonderful and helpful and friendly, which was a great stay.

I want to start off my review by thanking the Cinnamon Veluishi staff - they were absolutely incredible. Answering any questions we had, chatting with us, very quick to service and help us - everything done with a smile. Special shout out to Hameesh (our server during meals), Pooja (assistant dining manager), Hamad at front desk, Muhammad (brother of Hamad), Ahnas (young server at the pool bar), Naufal (bartender at Iru Kitchen) and DJ Kaur. These special individuals really made our stay as incredible as it was. Food was amazing for buffet style and I could tell the hotel put a lot of effort in ensuring we don’t get sick of it as it was quite different styles and cultures of food every day, which I appreciated. Another thing I appreciated about the hotel is their efforts to keep us entertained! Every afternoon and evening, they put on a special event such as karaoke, live band, DJ, pool party, movie night. There’s also a ping pong table, volleyball court, billiards, a bunch of books and several board / card games to keep you entertained. On to our room - absolutely loved it. Waking up to the beautiful turquoise waters and taking a dip before breakfast every morning, was such a dream. Very clean and the bed was so comfy. They decorated our bed for our check in (it was our honeymoon) which was a beautiful, personal touch that we appreciated - came with a complimentary plate of fruit and bottle of wine. This was my first all inclusive and I’m grateful that it was with Cinnamon!
