Coco Palm Dhuni Kolhu, Maldives

5th time at our home away from home. There is nowhere else we would want to go more than at Coco Palm Dhuni Kolhu. A true paradise in so many ways. We wanted to acknowledge and thank in particular: Susantha for his kindness and warmth, Chef Akash who went well beyond his duties to ensure that we were happy with the exquisite food, all the culinary team (Aniket, Mohammed and Bashir) and the waitressing teams for their attention to detail (Sarmilla, Nalinda). Jennifer and the reception team for their care. Abul and Ram at the bar for their kindness. And the house team for always keeping our room pristine. and Siraj for his care and kindness towards us.

From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel so welcome. Everyone was genuinely kind, attentive, and always happy to help, making us feel truly cared for throughout our stay. The resort itself is absolutely stunning. The island is beautiful, peaceful, and impeccably maintained, with crystal-clear water, white sandy beaches, and an atmosphere that feels like paradise. The villa was spacious, spotless, and offered everything we needed for a relaxing and luxurious stay. The food was excellent, with plenty of variety and high-quality dishes at every meal. What truly sets Coco Palm apart is its exceptional hospitality. Every member of the team went above and beyond to ensure our honeymoon was perfect, and we left with wonderful memories that we will cherish forever. Thank you to everyone at Coco Palm Maldives for making our honeymoon so magical. We would highly recommend this resort to anyone looking for a romantic and unforgettable escape, and we hope to return one day!

This was our best holiday to date,we had some concerns over the fact that there wasn’t a swimming pool but we were so wrong!!!the kids loved the sea and never wanted to get out the things we found by just snorkeling was unbelievable.We stayed in a beach bungalow room 18 and it was perfect cleaned twice a day and the view was exceptional!!!The staff are so friendly and helpful especially with the kids and can’t do enough for you,the food is on another level our family don’t eat fish(only because we don’t like it)but there we tried all fish and enjoyed 90% of it,and once your full and you think you can’t eat enough you have to walk past the dessert stand!!!!We were devastated to leave evenn my boy started to cry!If and when we can afford to go again we will definitely be returning.Thankyou coco palm dhuni kolhu for making it a unforgettable and perfect holiday

My wife and I have been to the Maldives half a dozen times previously to Baros, Meeru and Antantara, however our last time was 18 years ago and on this occasion we visited Coco Palm Dhuni with our 18 and 16 year old daughters. From the moment we were met at the airport by Coco Palm representatives, their warmth and enthusiasm was overwhelming. This continued throughout our stay but was never more evident than in the Cowrie Restaurant. From Sharmila, Linhansa and Susantha who greeted us each morning, afternoon and evening, to Riyaz, who charmed and entertained us often, and the ever-attentive Nalinda who took great care in ensuring that our glasses were always full and our needs were always met. Special mention must go though to Aakash. We met Aakash on our first night (when he dueted with my daughter on Karaoke in the Conch bar!!). We later learnt he was Head Chef and he should be rightly proud of the exceptionally high standard of food that he and his team consistently produce. The variety, presentation and quality of the food was amazing and to define it as “buffet style” food does a great injustice to the a la carte calibre of every dish. As an example which personified Aakash’s standards, in the closing days of our holiday, Aakash came to thank us for the appreciation we showed to his team during our stay and offered us dinner on the beach on our last evening out of goodwill. To my great disappointment, I was unwell that evening and unable to attend and according to my wife and daughters, missed out on one of the most inventive and delicious meals they have ever enjoyed. Furthermore, on hearing from my wife that I was unwell, he insisted on sending a bowl of nourishing soup to my room to help me recuperate. It is this level of care and attention which perforates down to all of those who cooked and served in the Cowrie restaurant and sets Coco Palm apart from other resorts. Everyone in that area was exceptional. The same is true of other areas of the island also as we frequented the beach bar and the Conch bar (and the team went to the trouble of keeping the bar open until 2am and putting on a projector so that we could watch the World Cup football!). The Beach BBQ is not to be missed and the snorkelling is easily on a par with 5 star resorts we have stayed at previously (we saw eagle rays, turtles, dolphins on the edge of the reef and black tip reef sharks). We never got to try any of the Spa facilities but, if they are to the same exceptional standards that Coco Palm Dhuni applies to all other areas of the resort, you won't be disappointed.

It was a wonderful experience in Coco palm during my holiday there. The resort has 28 years but anyhow everything was really good, the villa the sea not a lot in front of the villa qas foggy, but anyhow We have seen dolphins turtles and a lot of fishes. The food good perhaps too indian in some part but the quality was perfect. Thanks to Lihansa, Waiter Nalinda and the f& b manager Susantha for their professional and warm welcome. See you next time
