"Reethi Faru is a true beauty with an unspoilt feel. There are tall palms, lush vegetation, colourful flowers, and a powdery ribbon of white sand around the whole island. Everything is well kept and very clean. Staff is welcoming and friendly, they are a great asset to the resort. My garden villa was of a generous size, loved the comfy large bed and the half-open bathroom. Food was of high standard consistently, the buffet was really varied and plentiful.
The island provides a good balance between serenity and being active and bit more social, can do both. There are quiet spots, but also activities on offer.
Personal highlights were the incredible spa - very high quality treatments and professional therapists at this beautiful facility - and the manta ray snorkelling trip.
I do hope to be back some day! And in the meantime, absolutely recommend to visit, it’s just the right place for a wonderful Maldivian experience. "
"The best resort!!! so well taken care of, amazing staff all round very attentive and house keeping always up kept. So many amenities available and a truly magical place. Did not want to leave this paradise. "
"Clean rooms, good food , great house reef , lots of families which is to be expected as has a kids club- but when the resort is busy it’s difficult to avoid . As such not very romantic . "
"From the moment you arrive at the resort, Rohit and the team make you feel exceptionally welcome. Everyone is very friendly and took care of all our needs. Sid, our house butler, took excellent care of us for the entire week. Nazmul our villa attendant kept our villa spotless and was always very friendly. The choice of food is great with multiple restaurants available. Chris , the sommelier and Nitin , enhanced our dining experiences. The chef at Asiatique, sorry can't remember name, helped make a birthday celebration exceptional.. "
"We noticed a nice looking hotel online at Kamadhoo island and thought it would be a nice stop for our Maldivian island hopping experience. We booked in for one night at the Swarn by Hawks. It was a beautiful hotel with amazing ocean views. The floor to ceiling glass view of the ocean is quite spectacular. We were upgraded from the Deluxe Sea View to the Executive Suite, which was amazing. We enjoyed it so much we decided to extend our stay a couple extra nights. Our travel plans changed and we ended up extending our stay at the hotel for another week. Ravin (the manager) was very accommodating in every way. The staff went out of their way to make our stay amazing.
We only ate the breakfasts at the hotel and it was a delicious buffet breakfast. We can’t comment on the other meals because we ended up eating out at the local restaurants.
There was construction going on around the hotel and there are deficiencies in the newly built hotel, but they are addressing them and doing renovations as needed. The cost/night reflected this and more than compensated for the issues.
The staff were all very friendly and went out of their way to accommodate us. As we were leaving one of the workers ran up to us to give us a few items that we accidentally left behind in the room.
Everyone at Swarn by Hawks contributed to make our stay a memorable one. Thanks for everything!!"
