Escape the frenetic pace and chaos of everyday life, in to luxury’s very own lap at Taj Exotica Resort & Spa, Maldives. Away from the sparkling lights of Male, this hotel is spread across the Emboodhu Finolhu island in the middle of one of the largest lagoons in Maldives. Renowned for its rich flora and fauna, this tropical isle, also known as the Three Coconut Isle, is situated amidst the coral reefs. A 15-minute speedboat ride from the airport brings you to the idyllic resort surrounded by the azure waters of the Indian Ocean. Set delicately over the lagoon, this postcard-perfect getaway offers 64 sea-view villas and suites that are luxurious and lavish; yet maintain a fine balance with nature. The world-famous, award-winning presidential suite is, arguably, the most beautiful place on earth.

I choose the TAJ resort based off of how the website pictures look, but in person is a whole different experience. I loved my stay and everything was so peaceful and pleasant. Please find the time to visit this resort, you will not be disappointed!!! Let’s start by being picked up from the airport: - someone was holding the resort sign so I can clearly see it (there are soooo many resorts so this made it easier to find me - she took me to the resort speed boat that was waiting (about a 15 minute ride) Thank you Shakeeb and Ibrahim for getting me safely to the resort Payel received me upon arrival at the dock and gave me VIP treatment. She showed me around, and explained everything, and took me to my villa. I had no words when I saw it!! VERY BEAUTIFUL, I was beyond satisfied. This is a fairly sized resort and getting from place to place may be a long walk, depending on your villa. No problem, TAJ Resort has you covered, they use buggies to transport you everywhere you want to go, just call reception desk the to make arrangements for pick up. Thank you all for great service to me; Shaukat, Shahbaz Irushad, Pramod, Kalyan, Nihan. You all made it easy for me to travel around the resort. Went to dinner later on that evening and the food was great. I tried the different restaurants available for a variety of authentic dishes. Thanks for the delicious meal to the Restaurant Managers: Rabeem, Ismail, and Chef Mario. I had a slight issue with WiFi not working and I didn’t have an adapter to charge my electronics, but thanks to Jaideep, I was all set. He fixed everything for me so everything was working properly. No matter how beautiful a place is, without a professional and courteous staff, you won’t have a good time. I’m so glad that everyone I mentioned was on their game and made me personally feel welcomed. This is the top resort that I’ve been to throughout all of my travels!!!! Go see for yourself 😉

Food ambience hospitality rooms bar restaurant all are good except the pool side bar/ restaurant which is pathetic. The chef Jai is very professional and his culinary skill is amazing.

Our anniversary stay at Taj Exotica Maldives was spectacular. The breathtaking views from our villa created a perfect backdrop for romantic moments. Taj Exotica is a true gem for couples seeking a magical anniversary escape.

Right from personalised services to personalised care, everything was absolutely fantastic. A special thanks to GM Mr. Avinash, who personally ensured every detail was taken care of. Nishita was exceptionally warm and welcoming, making our stay truly comfortable. The F&B Manager, Russell, our butler Simo, and bartenders Rishabh and Raja were all outstanding — incredibly forthcoming, cooperative, and always with a smile. Their collective efforts made our experience memorable and seamless.
