Pullman Maldives All-Inclusive Resort Hotel 5 stars

Beautiful resort; accommodation was amazing; staff so accommodating, but it was the service that stood out the most; The twice daily room service; the staff; the food; cleanliness and the organisation of the airport pickups was exceptional and when leaving we received the same service right up to the international check in counter

Fantastic location, great service, excellent experience

Thanks for the great arrangement for the anniversary celebration, it was a unforgettable experience that we never had. The hospitality and housekeeping are superb !!! Beautiful & clean, full of drinks and snacks in the room. Good job guys !!

We booked this via an online deal, not sure what to expect. But we were pleasantly surprised. From the moment we arrived all staff were so friendly, accommodating and helpful. Nisha, Hoodi, Anna were just some of the staff that made this holiday one to remember. The food at all the restaurants was absolutely Delicious and very tasty, the barmen always happy to give you a little more. The rooms are stunning and clean with everything you need. So many activities we couldn't decide to stay busy or relax. Can't fault anything! Will definitely come back.

The food was amazing from breakfast right through dinner and everything in between. The water (especially around Juliet beach) was sublime. The staff were so friendly and accommodating and took care of everything. The all inclusive package was very generous. The team also did a great job assisting getting from Male to the resort. The spa was very well run and had some amazing therapies. You could find a private beach anywhere at anytime. Unforgettable experience!!

its a beautiful island with great overwater pool villas and caring team. all inclusive is truly generous . journey is long , but worth it and transfers from male were smooth and personalised. food was great in all restaurants. we enjoyed fishing trip, sunset cruise and spa as a part of our package. there were few things i would like to mention which i think need attention. first are the stairs from villa to sea were very vertical with round steps with increased chances of slipping.other sea food was less extensive.lastly there were no sun loungers on beach. except these it was fab,. will definitely love to come back.

Great place, friendly staffs who have the best intentions and try to make your stay as good as it can be. I think the operation team could improve a bit though in making the experience more seamless - there were some loose ends that can be tightened for a resort at this price range. For example: 1) Drink orders were often very slow, forgotten, or sometimes mistaken. Also the staff seemed to make drinks in their own way - we ordered ice tea probably more than 10 times, but each time it tasted very different. 2) The buggy situation was difficult to estimate. Sometimes it came in 3 minutes, sometimes in 20 minutes. Sometimes we were told to wait outside, sometime in the room. It can be either, but should be more consistent. 3) One time the dinner reservation we made at the resort restaurant, and even got a confirmation call back earlier in the day, was not placed. We found this out when we arrived at the restaurant, at which point the waitress told us that there would likely be a seat available in 45 minutes or so, if we wished to wait at the bar. We weren't very please about this since we were starving and super ready to eat, but accepted it since not much choice. What was slightly annoying though was that the waitress would come to the bar and seeing us frustrated tell us to relax and enjoy, that we are "lucky" we can enjoy the great view from the bar etc. I know she meant well, but honestly, we did not feel "lucky" or anything as we were starving and just wanted to eat. I thought a simple apology and maybe some finger food would've been the right approach here rather than comment on our luck. 4) The to-and-fro from Male can be quite tiring because of the wait at Kooddoo until we get on the plane/boat. This was understood already from other people's review, and not much can be done so that's fine. I do think though that Pullman can made this a bit more comfortable. For example, at departure we were waiting 1.5 hours at the Kooddoo airport where there was no store to buy water or anything. A cold bottle of water when they dropped us off there, as a departing gift, would've been a nice touch. Other than that, it was a fantastic stay and a beautiful island resort. All the things I mentioned are minor and should be easy to fix :)

Was a enjoyable experience

My wife and I stayed at Pullman Malvides Maamutaa for our honeymoon. The resort was, quite simply, incredible. Gorgeous location which offered plenty of privacy and amazing service. The All Inclusive concept offered peace of mind when it came to checkout with no hidden or unexpected costs. The staff were all very friendly and attentive. The snorkelling was like being in an aquarium with an abundance of fish, turtles, rays and reef sharks. We snorkelled everyday, just out on the house reef so a 20min wade out in shallow water, not boat required! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Pullman Maldives to anyone and can’t wait to go back for anniversaries in the future.

Team Pullman Maldives Maamutaa…..Stand up and take a bow! You are all awesome and thank you. If you have not already…put the Maldives (this resort too) on your Bucket List. We booked an 8 day stay through Luxury Escapes in an overwater pool villa. The photographs looked amazing, however we both have been excited before from the photographs only to find the place not exactly up to our our expection…. ……HOWEVER….. .....when we arrived at Pullman Maldives Maamutaa the resort was even better than the photographs..spectacular is such an understatement for this unbelievably beautiful island and resort. Some nuts and bolts.. The Journey Australia to Dubai to Male to Kooddoo by air then boat to Maamutaa – long way to travel and purposefully booked overnight flights etc to arrive in Male 0930LT. Greeted at Male Airport by a smiling young Maldivian man (apologies omitted to get his name) escorted us taking our bags to the domestic terminal then upstairs to the Lounge to await our domestic flight, flew to Kooddoo Island with its amazing views, met again and escorted to a small air-conditioned lounge whilst our bags were taken to the boat, then we were taken by buggy a short distance to the boat. Speedboat ride 15-20mins to the resort on Maamutaa Island. Everything was seamless. The Resort Wow! Smiling faces greeted us at the boat, taken to reception, already the beauty of the scenery had struck us. Quick welcome, chilled towel and drink then Martine introduced herself together with Skye - the latter sat down with us explaining a few things (didn’t listen as we were too busy admiring the scenery and building ) then took us by buggy to our Villa driving around the resort first…..first night to be Sunrise side and the remaining 7 nights Sunset. Skye was fantastic, showed us around, again didn’t listen much due the Wow Factor of the drive to the villa and the villa itself…the villa with pool is huge and perfectly appointed in every way. Attention to detail was astonishing with high quality everything. After we both returned to earth briefly to unpack our bags (sort of), straight in the pool for a quick cool off then off again to explore……..the views were out of this world. Followed the boardwalk back towards reception along the white sand road to find the Melange….promptly got lost (remember the aforementioned not listening!) but who cares, found the Melange….Wow…..huge dining hall, two huge pools, sucken bar (the Hub) and those views as the sun began to set. At the Melange we were greeted by Shristy, unforgettable young lady who took us under her wing and showed us all we needed to know and then some. The six live cooking stations……….. The Food Melange, Souk Oven, Phat Chameleon, the Hub, Saffron Affair, Sol Rising were all places to either eat or snack..our favourites were all of them- the Melange, Souk Oven (Italian Lunches, Turkish Dinners), Phat Chameleon (Veggie) and the Hub (fast food type) ALL were delicious and varied to the taste or palate required – nothing was too difficult. Canapé’s at the Hub were a nice compliment to a drink or two. The Fun Stuff (other than food and drink) Some colleagues thought I would get bored………well I was far from it as there is sooooo much to do or alternatively do nothing! Jetskiing, Paddle Boarding, Snorkelling, Kayaking, Diving, Sky diving, Gym, Table Tennis, Golf Sim, Karaoke, Walking, Drinking, Eating and Relaxing. And of course Sunbaking, swimming and most importantly sleeping  For anyone interested I walked everywhere on the island, rarely using the buggy and amassed on average 13 000 steps a day – it worked for me. And included a 5km walk/stagger/crawl run each morning. Also, pool Zumba was hilarious fun together with other planned exercise activities. We walked around the island on the beach too. The Drinks The drinks were always plentiful, well made and presented. Just take a look at the Wine and Cocktail list. The Spa Just do it! Massage and Facials were bless in an incredible setting. The Cleanliness Villa cleaned daily, minibar replenished twice daily. The resort itself is meticulously looked after and is a credit too all involved. The Security No issues and the resort team have excellent communications via radio. May I say one thing….those with drones leave them at home! Finally and deliberately so..The People Martine, Skye and Shristy already mentioned. Isanka – The Hub Drinks Guru – genuine, so friendly and a pleasure to be round; Wesley – Melange Juice Guru Brace – Sol Rising Drinks Guru Nisha – Souk Oven Juice and Waitress Guru-ette Zayan – Souk Oven Waiter Guru Shahab – Villa Cleaner Guru Nahid – Mini-Bar replenishment Guru Hassan aka Abu – Jet Ski Guru Mushfiq aka Asham – Melange waiter Guru, Photo Guru and Dance Guru Jessica – Duty Manager and Spa Guru Ratna, Dewis and Ayu – Spa Guru’s Fajar – Chef Guru with our bespoke Soufflé request Waziri – Chef Guru with our Gnocchi request All the above have a backing story, go and find out theirs and make yours…….! Thank you to you all and anyone else we missed – you were awesome and be proud. The Conclusion We love this place – Pullman Maldives Maamutaa. And we are coming back next year.

This resort and island is amazing, we could not fault it. The staff were fantastic, friendly and helpful, always with a smile and say hello. The food was amazing and a huge selection. We loved that they make you whatever you want fresh and quickly. There’s plenty to do, our favourite thing was our snorkel trip out to a reef on jetskis and swam with turtles, stunning. We fished, sunset cruised, ate, loved the cocktails, are some more, got massages at their luxurious spa, relaxed in our villa, snorkelled right off our deck. Hired bikes to zip around the island but it was no trouble to call for a buggy to where we wanted to go either. They also made it easy transferring from Male airport to Koodoo and back again with staff looking after you at arrival and departure. So many little touches too like our welcome message on our bed, a bottle of champagne one night, little treats when they turned down our bed at night. Honestly, you couldn’t want more in a stay, we loved it.

It was a fabulous experience and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. All the staff were very friendly and willing to help at any time. A special shout out to Isanka at the pool bar for making us his special cocktails, Kasun at Safron, Jessica at the Spa reception for giving us some good advise on what we should try at Phatt Chamelion etc, Dharmawati and Rahul for the excellent spa treatment (may their hands be blessed), Shristy at Melange that remembered that my wife asked for a Chai tea which she could not give us on the day but she remembered us the following morning at breakfast and asked the chef if he could make one and served us with the most delicious chai tea. Mandeep at the fruit bar that went out of her way to find my wife mangustines when I requested it. She then remembered it the next morning and sent us some again at breakfast. Dharmapriya the chef who made us some very special Sri Lankan Deviled Prawns at the Maldivian Night. We also enjoyed the band and dancers on that night and would suggest that all the Sri Lankan boys get together and have a Sri Lankan Baila session too. Not for too long just a song or 2 would have been a nice touch. The only thing you can improve on is the food in the villa. Shyama and I enjoy staying inroom enjoying the view, pool, sand and water. But we had no choice but to get dressed and go out for our meals. We ordered one meal to the room which we had to pay for. There were no fruits in the room only drinks, chips and nuts. This was very disappointing. Some Mangoes, Msngustines, Rambutans and other tropical fruits in the room would have been much appreciated. We should have had the option of eating in even if the choice was limited that would have been great. Other than than that no other issues. We will most definitely recommend your hotel to any of our friends/relatives that want to visit the Maldives. Stay safe in these uncertain times.

Everything from arrival at Male airport to departure at Male airport was fantastic. We were treated like royalty. The Island is absolutely stunning and the water villa with private pool that we stayed in was amazing. The bars and restaurants were all fantastic. The all inclusive is like no other. Even the fully stocked mini bar is re filled twice a day.We had wonderful, relaxing and peaceful time on Maamatuu Island. We will definitely be back!

Thank you Pullman for an amazing stay we were very happy with our stay.For starters you have a very amazing property which is very well maintained and is very beautiful.The staff was absolutely amazing and courteous.We are very happy we chose your property for our wedding anniversary.We would like to visit again as and when time permits.The only problem we faced was our flight time from Male to Koddodo were not properly adjusted so I think while taking a booking you should confirm the flight timing.Rest we had an amazing time and look forward o visit you again
