Sun Siyam Olhuveli Maldives

My wife and I recently returned from a four-day trip, and we truly loved our stay and the hospitality we received. Our main contact, Yousif, was exceptionally helpful and always provided fast responses. Smile took great care of our room; he was a bit shy but lived up to his name and kept the atmosphere bright. Some other notable mentions include MD Rana, Ayub, and a female waitress from Malaysia at the Thai restaurant (whose name I unfortunately didn't catch). We also want to highlight Delowar, who drives the cart; he was an absolute joy to ride with—so happy and charismatic. Areas for Improvement: Unfortunately, we had one frustrating and deeply disappointing experience at the Malaafaiy Restaurant with a server named AK. We are American citizens of Bangladeshi origin, and we noticed a stark shift in his demeanor once he realized our background. While he was very chatty and friendly with other guests, he became hostile and rude toward us, which made my wife feel very uncomfortable. Every time we dined there, my wife felt anxious that we would encounter him or be ignored. On one occasion, he assigned a Bangladeshi waiter to serve us, only to scold that waiter right in front of us and other guests. When we later asked the waiter if he was okay or if he was being mistreated because of us, he simply smiled, clearly trying to remain professional. This experience left a small but deep stain on an otherwise wonderful trip. I sincerely hope the resort’s executives look into this matter to ensure all guests are treated with the same level of respect, regardless of their background. Conclusion: Despite this, we look forward to our next visit and hope to stay even longer next time.

We had a wonderful stay at Sun Siyam Olhuveli Maldives. Our child has food allergies (gluten and peanuts), which usually makes dining quite challenging. However, Chef Faisal went above and beyond to take care of us. He prepared special meals for our child every morning and evening, ensuring that everything was safe and suitable. Thanks to Chef Faisal’s thoughtful care and attention, our child was able to enjoy meals without any allergic reactions, and our entire family could relax and fully enjoy our holiday. We are truly grateful for Chef Faisal’s kindness, professionalism, and dedication. His exceptional service made our stay even more memorable. Highly recommended, especially for families with children who have food allergies. “We will definitely come back again."

It’s nice. But not too many thin can play.

We had an incredible experience at Sun Siyam. Everything was amazing, super beautiful, and very well maintained. The whole resort is stunning and you can really see the attention to detail everywhere. The villas are especially beautiful, very well designed and perfectly kept. Overall, it was a great experience and we enjoyed every moment. But what truly made our stay even better was Misbah. He was incredibly attentive with us, always making sure everything was perfect and going above and beyond all the time. Thanks to him, the experience improved so much and felt even more special.

The facilities are stunning and you can really tell how much care goes into every corner. The villas are especially beautiful, very well designed and perfectly maintained. The best part is definitely the staff: everyone is super friendly, attentive, and very detail-oriented, always making sure you have everything you need and that you enjoy your stay to the fullest. It was also my birthday during our stay, and they made it really special with thoughtful surprises, including a cake, which we truly appreciated. We would definitely come back. 💙 — Julia Centeno
