Reviews for Gili Lankanfushi

Heave on earth

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 days ago

We’re here to express our heartfelt thanks to all the staff at Gili Resort. It was our first time traveling to the Maldives with a small child, and they created such a wonderful atmosphere that made everything so much easier. My family and I booked two overwater villas to celebrate two birthdays during this vacation, and they made everything truly amazing—especially my own birthday, which was simply unforgettable. Our Mr. Friday, Shaany, was absolutely delightful and incredibly attentive, making sure our trip was memorable in every way. We’ve been to the Maldives many times, but we’ve never experienced anything like this resort. They work hard to build guest loyalty, and I have to say—they do it perfectly. From now on, we’ll only be coming back here. A special thank you to Hassan, who assisted us during all our dinners and beyond—so attentive and kind. Thanks also to Raman for the wine tasting experience—he was truly excellent. The overwater villas are spectacular, the most beautiful we’ve ever seen, and incredibly spacious. The outdoor shower is just perfect—completely in tune with the Maldivian vibe. We absolutely loved the “no shoes” mood. Right under our villas we saw so many fish, and being able to snorkel directly below was such a treat. The excursions were fantastic, especially the one with the sharks—it was the best experience ever, unlike anything we’ve done at any other resort. Thank you for everything—we can’t wait to come back soon!

Simply amazing!!!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 week ago

We've just returned from our stay at Gili Lankanfushi, where we went to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary and what an amazing time we had! All the staff were incredibly helpful and just couldn't do enough for us. Our Mr Friday (Alif) was absolutely amazing. He went over and above to ensure that we had some wonderful memories for our wedding anniversary and the team were also kind enough to provide us with some complimentary benefits such as a couples massage, champagne and treats on arrival and departure - all of which were really thoughtful gestures. We had a few heavy downpours whilst we were there, which is to be expected at this time of year, but it didn't prevent us from enjoying it and made us even more grateful when the sun was shining. The accommodation and resort are absolutely incredible, so I would highly recommend it!

Outstanding

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 week ago

My son and I were looking for somewhere to recharge and reflect after a “challenging” year . Gili Lankanfushi ticked every box for tranquility, exceptional service, outstanding hosts, a spa of the highest quality and a food journey straight from heaven .. I can’t praise everyone enough for how they made us feel and I can assure any potential guest, this place is just the best .. x

Zubba and Harry are the best

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 weeks ago

Omg. First off I have to say if you are going you MUST request Zubba as your mr Friday! He went ABOVE AND BEYOND to make my cousin and my stay incredible! He taught us how to free drive and helped us get footage on our go pros while snorkeling. He took us to the best reefs and did incredible art in the sand. I legit miss his energy now that I am home. Secondly HARRY IS THE BEST CHEF! So thoughtful and amazing with dietary restrictions. He made about 95% of the menu and buffets gluten free for my cousin and 85% of it all gluten free and dairy free for me. Thirdly, Bo was incredible at breakfast and dinner. Loved everyone at the resort but these were my main shout outs! Thank you all!

This place is a must-go!!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 weeks ago

When you imagine a stay in the Maldives, you imagine this resort. The staff is incredible! They helped us with everything we could possibly need, and things we didn't even know we needed. Each villa is given a person to contact for anything you need, whether it's a golf cart ride somewhere or booking activities. Our contact went above an beyond to ensure we had a carefree stay with everything we wanted! He worked so quickly too; we asked to go to the spa on a certain day and within 10 minutes we had the date and time of our session. The resort provides bikes for transportation; one day my husband's night light ran out of battery and without telling anyone a working light was replaced the next day. That is just one example of many for how amazing the staff is. The location is nice as well. Any activities you want are only a 10-15 minute boat ride away. The atmosphere is true comfort and relaxation. The resort has a no shoes policy making you feel right at home. The vibe of the decor and rooms is rustic and minimalist. The rooms have all windows so it truly feels like you are in the middle of the ocean. They are super sturdy structures, though it still felt like a proper villa. Within each room is aloe, bug spray, and sunscreen which was very useful. The activities are run by the best of the best. I went scuba diving for the first time ever and the guide was incredible; he made my husband and I feel super safe and prepared. They brought us to a reef with so much life and variety! I did yoga that was complimentary with the stay every morning. The instructor was from India and so talented at creating a class tailored to the guests abilities. The spa is top tier. On arrival I was given a delicious juice. Then got a lovely foot scrub and massage. For the massage itself the floor below your head is clear so you watch the fish swim by! My husband went surfing and I was able to come in the boat free of charge. The food was one of my favorite parts! The breakfast buffet is extensive. There is a good mix of repeat foods you can trust will be there every morning and new dishes to try every day. Everything I ate was delicious. I ate at the restaurant By the Sea one night and it was absolutely delicious. The sushi was so good we had some for dessert. This resort is truly a must go during your stay. My husband and I were saying we could have only visited this resort the entire time and had the most incredible trip. Literally everything was perfect.
