Baglioni Resort Maldives

Had a fantastic time at Baglioni. From Landing at Male to leaving, everything was thought through and felt looked after all throughout our stay. Fantastic service! The staff, the food and the resort are top quality and would highly recommend.

this was an awesome trip. The resort is stunning. We stayed in the 2 bedroom beachfront villa with a dining room and living room. They only have 1 of these.We were lucky to get it. The staff is outstanding. They all have smiles they are happy. Alt of them have been there for years. The food was great. The service was by far the best. We haver stayed at a lot of all inclusive resorts. But this one can't be beat. We are planning another trip back there.

Never have we experienced such breathtaking nature, enjoyed such exquisite food, or encountered such exceptional hospitality. We will never forget this holiday and truly hope to return one day. If it was possible to rate this beautiful place with 6 stars, I would do it!

신혼여행으로 몰디브 발리오니 리조트로 와서 너무 행복한 시간을 보냈어요. 멋진 바다에서의 스노클링, 맛있는 음식, 완벽했던 날씨로 최고의 신혼여행이 되었어요. 모든 리조트 직원들이 친절했지만 특히 우리의 담당 매니저 Chingiz는 최고로 친절했고 우리의 모든 부탁을 들어주는 최고의 매니저였어요. 그리고 룸컨디션을 담당했던 Johirul의 예술은 우리의 신혼여행을 더 달콤하고 행복하게 만들었어요. 마지막으로 다이빙센터의 Janna는 너무 따뜻한 심성을 가진 사람이에요. 잊을 수 없는 추억을 만들어주셔서 감사해요. 다시 몰디브로 와도 발리오니 리조트로 올 것 같아요😃💕💕 We came to the Balioni Resort in the Maldives for my honeymoon and had a very happy time. Snorkeling in the wonderful sea, delicious food, and perfect weather made it the best honeymoon. All the resort staff were kind, but especially our manager Chingiz was the best kind and the best manager to do all our requests. And Johirul's art, who was in charge of room condition, made our honeymoon sweeter and happier. Lastly, Janna at the diving center is a person with a very warm heart. Thank you for making unforgettable memories. Even if We come back to the Maldives, We think We'll come to the Ballioni Resort😃💕💕

As members of Palace Resorts, my husband and I had the opportunity to mark off several bucket list items—staying in a bungalow over the ocean and swimming in the wild with sharks. The Baglioni was absolutely amazing with unparalleled service. Imagine this: stepping out of a seaplane to be greeted by several employees including one who would be your personal butler for ten days. They placed handmade local flora necklaces over our heads then opened and held umbrellas for each of us while escorting us down the dock where we were serenaded by a band playing traditional music. Freshly cut coconuts with the hotel name burned into them served as our first cocktail. After a quick overview, they raised our umbrellas again and walked us to the breakfast buffet. This was the type of service we received for the next 10 days. For the first week, we were in an overwater bungalow so could open our sliding glass deck doors and step onto the stairs to swim in the warm, crystal clear water. For the last three days, we stayed in a beach villa where we watched sunrise from bed, showered in the rain in our private, enclosed bathroom, and walked a few meters on the white sand beach to the ocean replete with coral, fish, and sharks. When we weren't drinking copiously or eating exceptional food, we luxuriated in the beauty of the island. Over the magical days, I swam a total of a half marathon along the ~40-70' wall defining the atoll and Mike and I snorkeled and SCUBA'd together. Visibility was incredible allowing us to see over 50'. We saw two types of starfish, several Moray eels, lots of little crabs and some in-water crabs living in shells, large turtles, lion fish, stingrays, sea slugs, eagle rays (I saw 5 swimming together at one point), and loads of tropical fish (e.g. tangs, wrasses, clownfish playing in anemones). We also saw lots of black tip and white tip sharks. Most were in the 2.5' range, but we saw some closer to 7-8'. We didn't see the octopus living right off our beach or the pod of dolphins playing about a pool length's distance from our shore. My husband and I cannot recommend the Baglioni enough. _____________ The service was phenomenal! Examples of exemplary service included: —Supplying alternative hair conditioner when the type provided didn’t work for my hair —Sending chocolates to our room after I mentioned that I liked them —Letting us reschedule our dive experience because I was sick —Free medical assistance —Leaving me to sleep peacefully after finishing my massage —Scheduling a tour of the physical plant just because we were interested —Bringing me turmeric each morning just because they learned I liked it it in my lattes The employees at Baglioni Maldives were, without exception, perfect in very way. I felt their constant smiles and friendly demeanors were sincere and was consistently surprised and pleased with the level of service and care we received. Every employee was truly committed to ensure we had the absolute best experience possible while on Dhaalu and they regularly asked if there were even more they could do to assist us in any way. That said, some of these employees were particularly memorable to us. These include: —Ella, Margaret, and Pauline (Taste) came to know us quickly and were always so pleasant. They remembered our preferences and greeted us so warmly every time we entered the restaurant or saw them elsewhere on the property. They were sincerely concerned about our well-being, always wanting to ensure we were having an outstanding experience. —Widi was wonderful in the spa! She was so personable. —Raj and Ananya in the pool bar were so positive, always greeting us with smiles. Ananya made me feel so good when she sought me out and requested I bring her all my unique drinks requests. She said she loves to learn about new drinks and it made me feel special that I could provide her new options given my weird palate (and eagerness to try everything in my bar app). Her eagerness to improve her craft was evident. —Raiis in housekeeping was not our normal room attendant, but cared for us several days throughout our trip. We saw him often when walking along the path to our water villa and were always welcomed with a smile and question about whether we needed anything. —Zaha’s name is now synonymous with the word “amazing” for us. What an incredible woman with intense attention to detail! From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, she was our fairy godmother and knight in shining armor rolled into one. —Mariana (the marine biologist) gave a well-prepared and fascinating presentation on reefs and the development of atolls. Plus, she was a great help by answering our many questions during snorkeling adventures. When we happened to see each other in the water at random times, she seemed eager to answer my onslaught of questions. I also really appreciate all she is doing to improve the health of Dhaalu’s reef. —Zaki was most excellent at creating a positive vibe on the island. He was so fun and sincerely interested in everyone. I loved that he took a personal interest in the guests, making us feel like members of the Baglioni family. He provided a great island tour and even joined me on a swim around the island so I could feel more comfortable than if I were swimming alone.
