If someone asks me how it was at Ja Manafaru, I use the only one word: perfect. very green island and pretty cool reef close to the pierce were perfect. A la carte menu and good choice of wines were perfect. Unobtrusive kids activities and weekly events were perfect. But the most memorable thing was the sincerest care, attention to our even tiny wishes and needs and genuine interest to provide our best experience by all Ja Manafaru staff. Special thanks to Mohamed, Hassan and Nizam Hope to see you soon. Ps: Luka says hello to you🤗

The food was excellent as well as the experience’s we got to do on the island. The kids club was really nice and well organized and ready to welcome the kids. The staff was very friendly and kind they always serve you with the best. Our personal butler (mohammed) was very kind and helpful with our stay as he made sure we had the best stay. Highly recommend this resort as it’s surrounded with the most beautiful landscapes. Although reaching the resort was a bit tiring since we were an hour and 30 mins away from the main airport.

They greet you as soon as you land at the airport and then take you to the lobby, where you can relax and eat. Afterward, you'll be transported by seaplane to the hotel, where a wonderful team greets you. Takhuru accompanies you to your room and always offers luggage storage. The food is delicious, mostly seafood. You can sample different international cuisines each day. My vacation ended, and they dropped me off at the airport by seaplane. Even after my hotel stay ended, they continued to welcome me in the lobby and even escorted me to the airline to deliver my luggage. It was an incredible experience. Thank you everyone.

Our vacation at JA Manafaru 5* was nothing short of magical. From the very beginning, the experience was exceptional — the seaplane transfer was smooth and incredibly scenic, offering breathtaking views of the atolls as we flew over the turquoise Indian Ocean. The resort itself is a true paradise: pristine beaches, crystal-clear water, and perfect weather every single day. Our villa was beautifully designed and impeccably maintained, with outstanding housekeeping service that made us feel truly pampered. One of the highlights was the food — every meal was delicious and varied, with a wonderful selection of international and local cuisine. Whether dining at the beachfront restaurant or enjoying a private dinner under the stars, the culinary experience was consistently excellent. Snorkeling right from the shore was an absolute delight. The house reef is teeming with vibrant marine life — we saw countless colorful fish, rays all in clear waters. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay special, always warm, professional, and attentive. JA Manafaru is more than just a resort — it’s a dream destination. We left feeling completely relaxed and already dreaming of our next visit. Highly, highly recommend!
