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).

This was our first time in the Maldives and it didn't disapoint. Even though we waited 3 hours for the seaplane in Male, and after a 11 hour flight we just wanted food and a comfy bed and neither dissapointed. Our choice of board was premium all inclusive, we spent 5 nights in a water villa and 5 in a beach villa. Both are very different experiences with pros and cons depending on individual requirements. Water villas are more spacious, cooler overnight with less to no mosquito, quiet and if your lucky enough to have an odd room number then you get a private sunset each night (clouds permitting) While we enjoyed the WV experiences we did miss being able to walk straight into the sea and spend time on the beach. WV are surrounded by the reef. The beach villa was definitely as imagined and didn't disapoint we we're looked after very well in both locations by the amazing staff some of them left a lasting impression just because they we attentive without being intrusive. The customer service by all the waiting staff is a true credit to this island. The choice of first class food in all the restaurants is quite incredible considering your inbthe middle of the Indian ocean. Special mention to chef Dilip for the excellent food he and his team produced. We ate in both Huvandhu garden (Deniz first class waiter)!and Dhiyavaru (Riyaz best breakfast waiter) the quality was fabulous. We received great service in the Raalhu pool cafe from Charnthi and Vanken warm smiles every time we visited and nothing was too much trouble. Ask Nazer at Thari bar to make you the best g&t ever and he will with a big smile. From Hussan who replaced our mini bar to Mazin our cleaner and Abera the lady who's never ending job was to sweep the leaves you left a lasting impression on our amazing holiday and we thank you all. The island is beautiful the sea is so warm with different experiences every day whats not to love.

Well looked after.The staff at Reethi Faru blew us away with their hospitality. We stayed All Inclusive Premium and were treated like royalty. The food was mind blowing every day pescatarian for the whole stay. This is our second stay here and believe me they just get better and better. We couldn't be happier.

A magnificent hotel resort in Raa Atoll, offering everything you need to disconnect from everyday worries. The island features 150 Maldivian villas (garden, beach, or overwater). Additional relaxation awaits you at the spa and wellness center, where you can enjoy a soothing massage and other treatments. Exceptional cuisine, friendly staff, and crystal-clear, warm sea.

My husband and I spent 11 glorious days in Reethi Faru in January- our third visit there after having four visits at their previous resort, Reethi Beach. It was, as always, a wonderful holiday. The rooms are immaculately clean, well appointed and the bathroom supplied with Molton Brown toiletries, copious towels and plenty of hot water. The food in the Vakaru restaurant is just stupendous- ever changing themed buffets, amazing dishes worthy of a London five star restaurant and stunning desserts. The chefs are so talented and are led by the wonderful executive chef Ashish. We can’t praise them enough! The serving staff are friendly, efficient and our thanks goes, as ever, to Musa whose attentive and communicative manner is much appreciated. We enjoy all the spa treatments, so relaxing, and the spa ladies are so lovely. (The Sandy Toes boutique is well worth a visit too). Bar service is friendly and there are copious choices on the menu.(Perhaps a drier rose wine would be nice though?) Our only gripe is that despite requesting a beach accessible deluxe pool villa when online booking, we were given one with sandbags between us and the beach. As we are no longer so young and suffer aches and pains, negotiating the often slippy bags was hazardous. Lifting the heavy sun beds down onto the beach was a struggle but, luckily, we moved room half way through our stay. (We have to say that there are minimal number of villas with sandbags and younger guests would manage fine). However, we saw a sign on the noticeboard outside reception warning not to climb on them as they could be slippy!! We have just booked again for next year, again requesting a pool villa with flat beach access, but we shall see what happens! Finally, to end on a positive note, thanks to all the staff- from the porters, the ladies who endlessly sweep the sandy paths and to all the management for another magnificent holiday. We can’t wait to return!

The resort is a piece of heaven. Everyone was so friendly and always ready to help. The food AMAZING, full of varity everyday, fresh and delicious. The water villas are the best choice by far for us(because we stayed there). Forget you filp flops and take the sand in your feet. We will come back for sure. Thank you for the perfect honeymoon! (Ps: thanks Subin and Abhishek sharma for your kindness)
