Loved everything, only one thing I would mention, if you go to the spa add 20% tax as the prices do not include this.

Relaxing the minute you arrive. Staff couldn’t do enough, friendly and professional. Apartment beautiful, beach outstanding. Food selection was amazing and fresh.

We left my husband's pullover on the sunbed in front of our villa and called the hotel as soon as we arrived at Male with the seaplane. They never called us back, although promised to check it and give us a call after. I had to reach out to them via different platforms (whatsapp, booking etc) asking if they have found it. They said no, which is obviously hard to believe. I also offered to pay for the shipping cost when sending this back to us, but they just did not really care to spend any effort on it. This is just a nuance probably, but I would expect a bit more support from a 5 star hotel.

Everything was great, the location, the staff, the room, the food, we really had a great time at Lily.

Small issue with WiFi going down in room for over a day and Jacuzzi wasn’t fully functional but minor issues.

Amazing location, great house reef, fantastic room and beautiful food every day. The food and drinks in the all inclusive was particularly impressive.

Nothing. It is just a little further than the ones near to airport but definitely worth it. U will not get the same maldives experience and this is so worthwhile.

The in house reef snorkelling was amazing, you can see so many different type of colourful fishes. And the food is good 😊 i especially enjoyed the feeding at 9pm… have never seen so many sharks and stingrays congregate tgt right at the main jetty.

The extra charges for the premium restaurants were high - should have been s9me credit applied as you weren’t eating at the buffet

The restaurant around the pool area was perfect

Had an amazaing stay at Lilys. The island’s house reef is amazing! We snorkeled with colorful fishes and reef sharks. The island itself is lush and feels like a tropical paradise. The buffet in the evening was great. The food was fantastic at Vibes and Aqua. All the staff they are amazing and will take care of you. As a cocktail lover, I was impressed—every drink was perfectly prepared!

From the very moment you step into the Maldives, Lily Resort takes hospitality to a whole new level. Even before arrival, the hotel reaches out to arrange transfers, ensuring a seamless start to your vacation. While we initially opted for a domestic flight and speedboat (not recommended, as you lose half a day), our return by seaplane was nothing short of perfection—quick, luxurious, and topped off with a VIP car greeting at the airport. Pure bliss! From the second you land, you are treated like royalty. Greeted by the general manager, guest relations team, personal butler, and even a live music orchestra, you instantly realize you’ve arrived in paradise. The attention to detail is impeccable—your butler takes care of everything, from a buggy tour of the island to offering a refreshing cocktail and cooling face towel after your journey. Whatever you need, they are just a message away. Overwater Villa – A Slice of Heaven (10/10) Stepping into our overwater villa was like stepping into a dream come true. The room was spotless, beautifully scented, and elegantly furnished, featuring: A massive bathroom with both a jacuzzi bathtub and a luxurious shower. Thoughtfully provided amenities—toothbrushes, razors, combs, shower caps, slippers, plush robes, and endless towels. A private infinity pool with a jacuzzi, filled with perfectly warm, crystal-clear water. A unique outdoor bathroom, where you can gaze at fish while taking a shower. A super-comfy king-sized bed with the freshest linens, plus a cozy daybed ideal for lounging with premium-quality TV and music systems. A fully stocked minibar—soft drinks, alcohol, snacks, and treats, all included! A spectacular glass floor panel, giving a mesmerizing view of marine life beneath your feet, day and night. Reliable high-speed internet—no lag, perfect for video calls and streaming. Everything in the villa was designed for absolute comfort—10/10 perfection!

Lily Beach Resort exceeded all our expectations! Everything was just perfect: tasty food at the buffet and à la carte, good and attentive service, and a home reef with a lot of sea life (we saw stingrays, small sharks and moray eel)🪸🤩. We stayed in a water villa and it was amazing experience🤩 This is a resort you would want to come back to❤️

We had an absolutely wonderful experience at Lily Beach Resort, despite encountering some rain during three of our seven days. Our beach villa provided excellent value for money, especially given that we visited during peak season. The service throughout our stay was nothing short of excellent; we truly felt special and well-cared for at all times. A highlight for us was the Aqua Bar, which offers a delightful adults-only à la carte lunch. Our waiter, Suranga, provided outstanding service, and the selection of food and drinks was impressive. Additionally, the Spirit Bar, located at the reception, featured a fantastic collection of aged whiskeys and French champagnes, all included in our all-inclusive package. Each evening, we enjoyed live entertainment there, creating a lovely atmosphere for relaxation after dinner. We were also impressed by the buffet restaurant, Lily Maa, which offered themed dinners each night. As avid fish lovers, we particularly appreciated the dedicated "fish market" booth, showcasing an array of fresh fish options to choose from each evening. The house reef was another highlight of our stay, teeming with vibrant marine life and colorful corals, making for memorable snorkeling experiences. We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to General Manager Mr. Laurent Driole for his warm welcome upon our arrival and his respectful attention throughout our visit. We look forward to returning to this exceptional resort in the future!

We loved this island and want to come back some day. One suggestion to perhaps stand out from the other islands would be to have a real barista and serve really nice coffee.

This was our first time to Lily Beach and we loved it. We had booked a beach villa but upgraded after two nights to a beach suite with pool and it made a huge difference. The beach villas are quite dark, small, and old, whereas the beach suite is beautiful, big, and full of light. The house reef is really good and very close to the beach. The food is absolutely amazing. We went on a snorkeling excursion and saw both mantas and a whale shark. One touch that we especially liked was that the island manager and all senior staff were very visible, walking around every day to chat with guests. They were always smiling and open for feedback.

Some areas needs to be refurbished

It is close to the airport, 25 min seaplane. The staff made our vacation perfect. Highly reccommend the hotel, this was our best vacation ever. Food is great.

After sales service through the Lily App was difficult at times trying to get hold of an assistant who would reply timorously. I had to call the service line on 3 occasions to resolve a transfer problem that I received no reply on from emails and messages on the App..

Everything from checkin to checkout, staff incredibly friendly, food and drinks top notch and house reef fantastic with good abundance of fish and sharks.

The only thing I would improve is cocktail-making skills for barmens. Some of them are good, but some are not. Apart from that, we are in love with this cozy island.

Separate quiet, child-free zone and a separate zone for families with kids. This is a very clever solution. Fantastic variety of food and drink selection Renovated rooms are huge and very well-organized. Kokky parrot! We miss him so much!

Not a major issue but soon time for maintenance across the facilities.

Our beach villa had very nice view and convenient distance with buggy to all other facilities. Food overall excellent as well as staff. Superb and very professional PADI dive center.

We loved everything. The place is a slice of heaven, we didn't want to leave at all. Our lagoon villa was amazing, very private and we where able to snorkler right outside our villa. We felt like royalty in paradise.

Pure perfection in every way! The island is gorgeous, the quality amazing and the staff delightful. The activities are a journey to participate in and the beach is pristine as well. This is a heavenly location!!

Everything was fantastic! When we had an issue with our room due to beach restoration work starting opposite our room, we requested to move to another room further away. As soon as I sent a message to the hotel director, we were called within minutes and offered to move to a higher-category room, with the option to choose where we wanted to stay. We were also given a complimentary couple’s massage at the spa, which was simply amazing. The SPA therapists were true professionals. We were pleasantly surprised by the prompt response and understanding attitude. As a result, we moved to a superior room and spent the rest of our vacation in unforgettable comfort. Initially, we stayed in a beach suite room with a jacuzzi, which we also enjoyed. It had recently undergone a high-quality renovation with a beautiful design. As an interior designer, details are crucial to me, and I found the room very comfortable and aesthetically pleasing. The other room with a pool was just as beautiful, plus the pool is much larger than the jacuzzi and perfect for swimming—especially stunning at night when the stars are visible ! We could talk endlessly about the food: every day there were new dishes, an enormous variety of food, fruits, wines, and various cocktails. Everything was fully included in the rate, with no extra charges; it was a true all-inclusive experience with top-quality alcohol. Special thanks to the beach bar server!) Unfortunately, we don’t remember the name of the persons who cleaned our room, but we want to thank them for their excellent work and meeting all our requests. Everything was superb. My husband was also very satisfied with the diving center. Instructors Kris and Quincy organized everything at the highest level, and he was thrilled with his dives. Overall, my husband and I were very happy that we chose this island for our vacations. It was our third trip to the Maldives, and this island is the best of the best where we really want to return. Unforgettable!)

We spent 15 days on this paradise island! We took our time choosing the island. We had several criteria: a good diving center, the best location near key diving spots easily reachable by boat, a beautiful house reef, comfortable rooms, and excellent food. Lily Beach met all these criteria and even exceeded our expectations! The island has a beautiful house reef. We snorkled with tortue, reef sharks, muraena, sting rays, and many different beautiful fish and corals ! The island itself is beautiful, many birds, old trees and palms, the beach outstanding! From the moment we arrived on the island, we felt a warm, genuine welcome, the hotel director, Mr. Laurent Driole, came to welcome us. He is a very nice person who told us a lot about the island, was always happy to chat. It was clear that the island is very well organized: water is delivered to the rooms daily in glass bottles, which is tasty and of good quality—no plastic waste. The island is very clean and well-maintained, the staff is extremely friendly, and everything works smoothly. The food is always fresh, diverse, and delicious. Our check-in was handled by Sara, who spoke French. She is a wonderful, kind-hearted person, and it was clear that for her work is not just a job; she genuinely cared about making our stay unforgettable. We thank her for her warm attitude, help, and care. We also greatly appreciated Mara, who speaks Russian. She is a very kind and understanding person. Many thanks to her for her assistance and kindness. A special thank you to Chef cook Dal, who made us delicious sushi daily upon request. On our last day, he prepared a plate of our favorite rolls as a work of art! He was so kind! We also appreciate all the waitstaff, especially Ismael, who was always nearby, asking if we needed anything else, and always booked for us our favorite table right by the sea. He was very pleasant and friendly. We thank a lot Dr. Lydia from the island clinic, very nice and professional person!

I guess the price. Maldives are very expensive, but seeing how much stuff works there and that they have alcohol and food from all over the world I fully understand that

Beautiful room with a nice view, wonderful food, very kind staff, good drinks... it was really a dream! We did diving with a school which is directly on the Lilly Beach island & I highly recommend them!

Another guest was able to charge their Spa treatment to our room. We were able to see it in our app and the staff removed it after we let them know. A pincode/passphrase to make additional charges might avoid this, given most is covered by all-inclusive

Beautiful well maintained resort. The staff were friendly at every interaction. The buffet was great, and the drinks, cocktail and wine selection was extensive (Must try the Espresso Martini!). The app makes coordinating everything easy, and shows all of the options across the resort which made it very easy to track bookings and decide what to do. There are additional excursions, spa treatments and dinner options that are payable as an extra charge to the all inclusive
