A part of the Lifestyle collection of Preferred Hotels & Resorts, Reethi Faru Resort is truly a tropical island paradise only reachable by boat or seaplane. Reethi Faru Resort (meaning “beautiful reef”) is the perfect hideaway for relaxation, privacy and adventure. Located in the south of Raa Atoll on the cosy island of Filaidhoo in the Indian Ocean. The vibrant house reef, teeming with marine life, lies just a step off the shore and our commitment to minimising the impact on the thriving ecosystem has led to the development of a series of artificial coral nurseries, alongside numerous conservation initiatives, to maintain the natural landscape of this bio luxury resort. Guests will enjoy pristine beaches, blue lagoons, lush vegetation and bountiful reefs ideal for snorkelling and scuba diving. Unwind in spacious villas with thatched roofs, modern conveniences and remarkable views (garden view, ocean view or beach view which varies by room type).

Excellent place for relaxation away from the routine work, Relaxation from your daily work and commitment, enjoyment of wonderful beach and coral reefs allong with sea activities.

Our 2nd visit to this glorious resort. First visited March 2024 for our 1st wedding anniversary,our honeymoon for 6 nights. It was not long enough, we got home and booked to return January 2025, for my husbands birthday. We didn't tell the staff, but booked a meal in the over water restaurant. They dressed our table with flowers, gave us a bottle of wine and a large piece of cake with happy birthday, such a nice surprise. It really was special, we smiled and laughed with the waiters. The snorkelling on the house reef was very good, we didn't go on the reef during our previous stay. Snorkellig trips certainly recommended. This time we saw Mantas. The juvenile reef sharks, rays, eagle rays and abundance of fish were great to see from our water villa. A shout out to the staff, especially Rajesh in the bar, Sateesh I was very nearly in tears saying goodbye to Sateesh, he is a great guy and attentive waiter, he looked after us during both visits. I eas overjoyed to see Ahna again. Saahir, in the overwater restaurant and his colleagues were awesome,next time we'll order white wine, so it doesn't stain when spilt... kidding. And Arianna, lovely lady. If tiu have time, do the island tour to see all the eco points very interesting. Huge thanks to the waterspouts team and boat hands. I was on crutches having fractured my ankle, they were so helpful,making sure I had help getting/off the boat etc. And finally, I don't have a name, but thank you to the Sous Chef who was leaving island doe a holiday/break. He helped me onto the seaplane and made sure i had help when arriving at Male. In short, great island, food, staff, we had no issues. Just a superb experience

We’ve now been on the island for a week and are really enjoying our vacation. The resort is very well maintained and the staff is consistently friendly. It all started with Cindy, who picked us up from the seaplane, guided us through check-in, and finally took us to our villa. Sadim takes care of us all day long at the Sunset Bar with delicious drinks. He always has a smile on his face, even when the bar is packed and he’s the only bartender. Laura, the resort’s marine biologist, took us on a great “Behind the Scenes” tour. Riyaz served us twice at the Reethi Grill and always shared little jokes with our daughter. In general, the food at the main restaurant is good. If you go at off-peak times, it doesn’t feel too crowded. We also booked the Dine Around option and often ate at one of the many other restaurants. We even got lucky with our neighbors. What more could you ask for! All in all, it’s a wonderful resort and definitely worth recommending. Unfortunately, we’re leaving tomorrow.

First time to the Maldives and we were certainly not disappointed. A big thank you to Sharon Carr, our Tailor-made travel consultant at the Saga travel group, for helping us make our choice. We stayed in a very comfortable and clean Water Villa on the full Dine Around package. We think the extra money spent on this package was worth it and it certainly made the holiday very special. Great food choice and high quality of ingredients used. A big thank you to our main waiters, Manohar, Riyaaz and the great chef Abisake, truly a credit to the resort and also not forgetting, Thomas the Food and Beverage manager. All of the staff were amazing and deserve credit to be fair and all our pre booking room requests were kindly met. The weather was great at the end of March, only one night of rain. This beautiful quiet resort, with its crystal clear warm waters and white powder sand, was certainly a highly enjoyable holiday, so much so, we extended our stay when we were out there. The reef is full of many species of fish, we never got to see the Turtles, but a few Eagle Rays and some nice large Reef Sharks. We certainly would not hesitate in recommending this resort.

This is the most beautiful place and resort, a real paradise. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, couldn’t do enough to help. The place really took your breath away. The wrap round all inclusive package was brilliant, allowing us to go to any of the outstanding restaurants on the island where the service and quality of food was brilliant. The snorkelling was fantastic and loved doing the guided snorkelling each day with the experienced staff. The bar and entertainment was brilliant. The island facilities were great, easy to walk round see sunsets and sunrise and grab drinks, towels as wandered from bar to bar. The water villa was stunning and such a treat to be in, with its outside rain shower. The sea plane ride was amazing. The medical staff were also superb.
