Patina Maldives, Fari Islands

Having been to the Maldives eight times, we can confidently say that Patina is the first resort we will definitely return to. We stayed in a Sunset Villa, and upon checking in we were welcomed with the most magical sight — dolphins swimming right in front of our villa. A surreal start to a truly unforgettable holiday. As a family of four with two young kids, we were amazed at how seamless everything felt. Our essentialist, Ruslan, went above and beyond to make the trip effortless. He arranged all our dinner bookings, looked after our dietary requirements, and ensured everything was perfectly tailored to us. The resort staff as a whole were outstanding — warm, attentive, and genuinely committed to making our stay special. Every interaction left us feeling cared for. The kids’ club deserves a special mention: it is without question one of the best we’ve come across in all our travels. The facilities and activities kept the children happily engaged, and the staff were incredibly thoughtful — even arranging meals for the kids whenever needed. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were so well looked after. Patina Maldives has struck the perfect balance of luxury, ease, and family-friendly hospitality. After many visits to the Maldives, this is the resort that has truly captured our hearts. We can’t wait to come back.

If you've reached this review, it's because you're trying to find the best option for investing in a fantastic vacation. I understand. This is our third time traveling to the Maldives. We've spent a lot of time analyzing the many reviews of hotels on these islands. The good news is that if this hotel's price fits your budget, you won't have to look any further. The level of service, combined with the quality of the restaurants, brilliantly led by Chef Beñat Alonso, the villas, spa, pools, gym, etc., is simply amazing. You always have someone on hand to resolve any problems, questions, or ways to enjoy your time. We will definitely return!

It was a delightful experience, the food was delicious especially the Chinese restaurant Wok society was amazing! This hotel is highly recommended for a comfortable and enjoyable getaway!

The experience on the island was great! Our butler, Zac, was very welcoming and also introduced the island's facilities and equipment to make our experience even better!

As our first time in Maldives we had so much fun at Patina! Their food and views, amazing, breathtaking! They have Chinese, Greek, Italian cuisines, we were trying different restaurants everyday. Since the resort is huge, you won’t feel very crowed, even if their rooms are fully booked. Moreover our hosts were super friendly and helpful!!! Shout out to Zac and Sharon, and Zaamey, they were tried their best to make us feel like home. Also very thankful to the guys at the airport, Akram and the others, were very careful with our luggage, and nicely lead us to the check in gates. To conclude I would definitely visit Patina again☺️
