Het Thakkar

It was the Best Property , Location is near around 30mins speedboat, so travelling is less. Waiting time was zero , our boat was ready when we arrived, and it was a luxury speed boat. Checkin was very easy, we arrived early , so they gave small room for rest till our Main room gets ready. Rooms were very very nice, i visited maldives before, but i loved this rooms best. We stayed in both villas , beach villa with pool and overwatervilla with pool both were extraordinary and the best part is both the villa offer very big swimming pool. Suggestion- If you are travelling with kid i suggest to take Beach villa with pool , because they can play with sand. And if you are couple or going for honeymoon take water villa with pool , the full privacy. About resort , it is very big and beautiful, common swimmingpool is so big, it is one of the largest in maldives. Best hospitality , very nice staff , our buttler saaiba was very very nice and best part was food. We didnt expected that food for indians will be very nice. Actually out of 7 restaurants in 4 restaurants there were indian chef. They personally visited me and asked what i like and not. Food was Very extraordinary .

Our stay at Kuda Villingili Maldives was absolutely wonderful and very relaxing. The hotel is clean, well-organized, and beautifully maintained, creating a peaceful and comfortable atmosphere. A special thanks to our butler, Karima 🤍 She was extremely kind, friendly, and always helpful. We felt very comfortable with her, and she truly made our stay easier and more enjoyable with her great service and positive attitude. It was an amazing experience, and I would definitely recommend this resort. We look forward to coming back again ✨🌴

This is my last day at this incredible resort, and if you’re looking for a truly happy and unforgettable holiday, look no further. Everything here is designed with your comfort and satisfaction in mind. I had a personal Butler karimane, who was exceptionally kind, cooperative, and responsive — she truly reflected the resort’s high standards and warm hospitality. The level of privacy throughout the resort was exceptional. Whether in the overwater villa or the beach villa, every space felt beautifully secluded, peaceful, and designed to give guests complete comfort without interruptions. It’s the perfect place if you value quiet, private moments. I stayed four nights in an overwater villa with a large, beautiful pool perfect for swimming, and three nights in a beach villa with a breathtaking sunset view. The resort also offers the largest public pool in the Maldives, an experience you definitely shouldn’t miss. The resort’s main restaurant was also impressive, offering both Indian and Arabic menus. The Indian dishes were rich and full of authentic flavor with perfectly balanced spices, while the Arabic menu offered warm, comforting traditional dishes — all prepared with great quality and beautiful presentation. The service and atmosphere made every meal memorable. Overall, it was a stay that exceeded my expectations in every detail.”
