SAii Lagoon Maldives, Curio Collection by Hilton

I am having an amazing stay at the hotel, and I wanted to give a special shout-out to the restaurant team, especially Arif and Ramish! From day one, their service has been absolutely outstanding. I had quite a few questions regarding the food and the menu, and they were incredibly helpful, patient, and attentive every single time. They always went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect and tailored to my preferences. Thank you, Arif and Ramish, for your warmth, professionalism, and for making my dining experience here so memorable!

This place is so nice. there are a cocktail lessons and the bartender Nabin is so cute. Can join this if yall come here!

We loved Saii Lagoon. Our third and most favorite trip to the Maldives. Food was the best at the Olive Oyl. Nebin at the bar kept the drinks flowing with the most kind and professional manner. He was so patient with our needs and made us very comfortable.

Nice resort, spotless rooms and amazing greenery around the island- we were quite impressed given that it is an artificial island. Same for the house reef- despite several reviews saying snorkeling is redundant, we were nicely surprised by the house reef- lots of corals and different species of fish, rays and nurse sharks. The room was very comfortable and clean, the staff was very nice and attentive. We had ice refilled periodically and the room was cleaned twice a day. Buggy service was available around the clock and very efficient- we used it at times because walking distances were long. It is easy to get one at your door via the app or calling the reception. There are a lot of activities around the resort and the marina- make sure you check the app to book! We took the snorkeling tours that were complimentary at the time-make sure to use the life vest from the room and rent conplimentary snorkeling equipment from the dive center. Breakfast was low-tier, not what we expected from a 5* hotel. The only nice parts were having it open from 6:30 and being near the beach while eating. Pool bar was way below expectations- we were served in yellowwish old plastic cups and the service was slow, cocktails were amateur-like . It was nice that towels were provided at any time. Also a hidden tip we only discovered during the last days- between the bar and the reception there is a snack area where you could get some free savory snacks (pretzels, corn, peanuts). The restaurants were very good, especially the indian Kebab&Curry and Miss Olive Oyl. If you don’t drink a lot of alcohol or cocktails, full or half board is more than enough. The weather was also surprisingly nice given the wet season- we had occasional short showers with nice weather most of the time. It was really unpleasant -a couple of times per day- that we were unable to sit outside due to toxic gas sprayed against mosquitoes- while we appreciated not having to worry about them, the short periods when they sprayed were unbearable and potentially dangerous especially for the kids. It would have been nice to have an actual coffee machine (eg pods) in the room- we would have enjoyed coffee from the room/patio without having to go to the bar or rush into breakfast first thing in the morning. Instant coffee is just not 5star worthy…

We have stayed all over the world but this holiday by far beats everything. The staff from start to finish are absolutely amazing, the island it self was fantastic & kid friendly. The beaches & the sea life were out of this world. All the restaurants were good quality including breakfast. I wish I can name every staff member for the hospitality they showed us.
