The Finolhu Villas Maldives

Club Med Finolhu is the perfect place to relax and truly wind down, especially if you’re staying in the overwater villas. It’s an ideal escape for honeymooners or anyone looking to get away from the hectic pace of daily life.

Our private overwater villa was stunning, with one of the best private pools and views we’ve ever experienced. Everything was always spotless, and the villa was beautifully decorated daily by Muhaimin. Those thoughtful touches really made our stay extra special.

The island itself is gorgeous. Finolhu has beautiful beaches, crystal-clear blue sea, a calm environment, and plenty of photo-worthy spots that feel straight out of a postcard. There’s no shortage of activities like snorkeling (we even saw turtles!), pétanque, tennis, yoga, paddleboarding, and water polo. If you want more, you can always hop on a boat to Kani Island.

The GOs are simply amazing and know exactly how to create fun and great vibes. Special shout-out to Risa, Opic, Akey, and Adam for keeping us entertained and for guiding us as snorkeling leads.

A very special mention to the Village Chief, Marguerite, for orchestrating everything so smoothly. You can really feel her leadership and presence throughout the village.. and yes, she sings pretty damn well too haha.

DJ Roman was on another level. His music selection, transitions, and ability to read the crowd were spot on every single time. Whether it was chill daytime vibes or full-on party mode at night, he absolutely nailed it and set the mood perfectly. On top of that, he takes insane photos, all using our own phone camera. Seriously impressive.

We also joined a tennis tournament with other GMs and staff and came in second (lol). Special shout-out to Yuki and Raja for the great competition.

The food throughout our stay was excellent. One highlight was when the chef prepared his grandmother’s grilled fish recipe after we asked for his favourite local dish, absolutely loved it. The servers Leo, Saaib, and Shiham were outstanding and remembered our food preferences without us needing to ask. Drinks-wise, Hasan’s team was great , just tell them your mood or go for Hasan’s passion fruit special (lol).

Lastly, a big thank you to our butler Jess for making our stay in Finolhu so relaxing, seamless, and fun. The place is amazing, but even if you took away all the facilities, we’d still come back just for the people. ❤️

This resort is amazing. The staff are friendly and do all they can to make you feel welcome and ensure you have the best holiday possible. The rooms are lovely and the over water bungalows have their own plunge pool and walk down the stairs to the water. The floating breakfast was out of this world and something you have to experience. The food and service was impeccable.
Special call outs to Cruise, our butler, and to our waiter Sola, and the ‘boys’ Adam, Aki and Iru (who spoke 10 languages) for being fun and taking us to amazing snorkelling places. Huge thank you to the resort manager Marguerite, who is the most impressive woman I’ve ever met. She played the piano and sang on the first night, danced and coordinated a Queen tribute another night, spoke French, English and probably other languages and was everywhere in the resort doing jobs with the staff no matter what is was. She is an amazing leader.
I would go back here in a heartbeat. It’s probably the best holiday we’ve ever had.

My husband and I booked this resort for our honeymoon and it was hands down the best decision. The food, staff, accommodations (we stayed in the sunset bungalow), the activities, etc. were all amazing! It was truly the trip of a lifetime and worth every single penny.

Club Med Finolhu was everything I expected and more. The whole resort has a calming and natural vibe, our over water villa was spacious, clean and with every amenity you could need. The staff are all very friendly and nothing is too much trouble. There are plenty of activities to join and a complementary shuttle boat to Kani which is more family focused is also at your disposal. I felt the resort is excellent value for money and all our transfers to and from the resort went smoothly. Our stay was for 5 nights and I wished we could have stayed longer. I would definitely recommend staying here, I loved it.

Our stay at Club Med Finolhu was nothing short of incredible. The level of attention to detail throughout the resort was truly outstanding, every little touch felt thoughtful and intentional, and it really elevated the entire experience.

It’s the perfect place to completely relax and feel at peace, while still having plenty of activities available whenever you feel like it. You can truly choose your own pace, which made this trip exactly what we were looking for.

A very special shoutout to the Sports GO Team, Risa, Opic, Adam, Love and Akey, who brought so much heart, positivity and fun to our stay. You genuinely made our experience unforgettable! And a fun extra mention to Burhan, the incredibly kind electrician by day and fierce ping-pong competitor by night!

The food was also absolutely incredible, delicious, fresh and beautifully presented every single day! Service across the resort was exceptional, and another huge thank you to Sola, our amazing server, who went above and beyond and made every meal even more special.

Honestly, every single person we encountered contributed to making this trip extraordinary. We felt so well taken care of from start to finish.

100% recommend Club Med Finolhu!
