This is our 8th visit to Bandos, so we are a bit biased. For us, its a tropical island holiday that both of us can enjoy, as my wife does not dive. The dive staff are excellent and i enjoyed the diving. My wife enjoyed the tropical island. The thing you really notice is the friendliness of the staff. It is getting pricey, though, as the GST has increased. Wine is not their strong point and none of the entry level wines are any good. (it is a muslim country). Overall we can't wait to come back

Stunning location & close re travel to Male airport made it an ideal spot for a couple of days chilling before heading home. Lot’s of ‘can’t have’s’ on the menu for all inc. found bars to close early & level of service not quite at the 5* level this resort wants to be.
