“Beware!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by HenrikLj on 22/02/2018

Beware! I tried to book through ckb travel or ”Maldivesoffers”. Got a good deal on Kudafushi, but got a bit worried and called the hotel. The booked room category didn’t even exist! I tried to get the deposit that I had paid back (€1200 and yes it was possible to cancel with the rate I had booked), but still nothing after 2 months trying. Also had to find alternative accomodation to suit plane tickets that could not be cancelled which was really expensive. So really bad experience for me.

★★★★★

written by Madilynno331 on 05/11/2014

With the great help of CKB travel we spent 5 days in Maldives. Everything was very well organized. Our travel agent was prompt, professional and very-very helpful. We had a lot of offers from different agencies, but we choosed the best price value for money and the best service.

“Helpful staff and Great Mr.Yaman!”

★★★★★

written by AronAlbania on 16/10/2014

Looking for months for the best offer for my Maldivian holidays, I came across CKBTravel, the agency that made my dream come true. I was sceptical at first since I haven't heard about this agency before but it resulted all the contrary. The staff was very helpful and dedicated and made all their best and efforts to provide me with the best price. A big thank you especially to Mr. Yaman, great communicator and a great agent. Looking forward to the next booking with CKBTravel ;)

I found this website on Google, and was sending an e-mail. The day after I got answer, and The service was excellent. We booked a room at rixos premium tekirova in Turkey. Yasman answered all of mine question. Have never had a service like this! Have still not have our holiday, but will go in 27 days. Are looking forward to our holiday, and I'm shure- we will book again. Thank you Yaman!

★★★★★

written by BellaMcDonald346 on 19/05/2014

I can only agree more with the reviews. I had seen a good rate and just to try i booked. I am used to online but the not give this extra. I stayed in Embudu village woth my troublesome questions they kept the spirit of answering. We all know how hard planning is. We had avgreat time. And even after we stayed we had a check up email. Beside that i get the better offer from all the agents where i asked. Also the personel tuch did it for me. Yes. We had a great time. And easy all arranged up front.

“We had the most amazing holiday!”

★★★★★

written by TravelerMegan on 16/04/2014

We had the most A-MAZING holiday!!! Everything was to perfection. I can't thank you enough for your assistance in securing the villa as i don't think that our holiday would have been anywhere near as amazing if we had of stayed somewhere else. The service was outstanding, the actual resort was exactly the same as the images on the internet - stunning... and it was, what we hoped it to be, incredibly romantic!! So romantic that my boyfriend became my fiancee during the trip!! So, as you can imagine, Adaaran Prestige Water Villas hold a very special place in our hearts now and we will be returning again for our honeymoon next year!! I'll be in touch once we sort things out to seek your assistance in organising our package with the resort - we'd love to have the same room as that was where he proposed! So, an absolutely amazing trip - massively exceeded expectations and we will definitely be back! Thanks again for the work that you did to get us there - especially in such a short period of time. Many agents woudn't have gone to the effort of calling to help secure the booking, so thank you very much. Hope you have had a good week. Thanks again, Megan.

“Everything was perfect!”

★★★★★

written by piscesturq on 15/04/2014

A particular staff member at CKB has made our Maldives stay amazing. Despite our last minute inquiries and booking, CKB has been very efficient in prompt email replies and phone calls (even though CKB and us here in Singapore are in different time zones) and also in collaborating with the resorts we were interested in. Their quotes were very detailed and transparent. There were no hidden costs. Everything was paid upfront and so we didn't need to come out with any cash during our trip other then our own extra expenses. CKB made sure their quotes were within our budget and even recommended resorts within our budget. Trust your travel plans with CKB, do away with your worries! Til our next travel plans, THANK YOU CKB TRAVEL! :)

“Service from CKB was fantastic.....2 tumbs up!”

★★★★★

written by Fernandez1981 on 19/03/2014

An advise to all who wants to book a hotel in Maldives be very sure that you know all the terms and conditions. To book a Water Villa/Bunglow, you must be 18yrs and above an it is limited to only 3pax per unit. Mr Yaman from CKB did a great job in arranging this for me otherwise one of us may still be surrendered in the Male airport. The arrange by CKB was great throughout, the moment we touch down at Male airport we were greeted by a hotel driver who brought us to Ripple Beach Hotel. We stayed there for a night and after breakfast we were taken back to the airport to take a domestic flight to Sun Island Spa and Resort. The flight took us almost half an hour. When we reach Sun Island we were greeded by the friendly staff and was brought to our room. We enjoyed our stay in Maldives throughout. Our only disappointemnt was that when we arrived at Male airport from Maldives before our departure to Colombo we were greeted by 2 gentlemen who have our full details (as in the our room no. in Sun Island). They offered us a land tour to Male and also a service to keep our luggage at the airport for $5 USD per luggage. Thinking that this was a service provided by CKB we took it up without much questioning. However instead of bringing us around Male the guide brought us to a restaurant which charges us $98 USD for 4 pieces of gralic naan, 4 pcs of tandoori chicken and 1 plate of butter chicken. After dinner we have less than half an hour to tour the Male City because we need to rush back to the airport. Upon reaching the airport we were greeted by another man who was sitting with a trolley with 5 of our luggage, total cost we had to pay him is $25USD. Meanwhile we still have to pay the guide another $20USD for the "so call 2hr" tour of Male City. I hope no one else get caught into this. Definitely CKB has nothing to do with this, I only got to know this from the "guide" while having dinner. They did this as part of "promoting Male City" Otherwise my trip to Maldives was a memorable one. Once again thanks to Mr Yaman and CKB Travel.

“Fantastic Holyday”

★★★★☆

written by galtman on 18/03/2014

Beautiful Resort, Excellent accommodation & most clean neighborhood, Most friendly & cooperative local staff & Management, Excellent service, Very smooth transportation to the resort & friendly Welcome. Two thinks on the down side: • No home reef-Every snorkeling need to be upfront arrange and cost appx $35/person. • Sea Weeds in the sea - not the best pleasant swim. Food was O.K not fantastic. Overall impression-Very Good

“AVOID AT ALL COST”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 22/09/2013

It all started with me booking online a hotel in Maldives via CKBTravel.com. One of the worst decisions I made in my life. After I entered my credit card details and clicked 'book now' they sent me an email saying that the travel voucher will come in the next e-mail. That did not happen. I tried calling their '24/7' hotline and got through in another half an hour after first attempt. The guy on the other hand told me not to worry about anything and that my hotel is booked from the allotment (whatever that is supposed to mean) and right then I understood that I haven't given him the reference number. Okay, I admit, I might have been their only customer in a while so confusion was not possible, but the guy told me that right now I cannot check by the reference number (reason unknown). The whole interaction left a quite fishy impression on me, and boy I was right. The next day they sent me the travel voucher along with the note that they charged 20% of the stay (not mentioned on their website) and that's it, I am all set. Of course I had my doubt and I called the hotel right away. Guess what they have never heard about the booking. For several days I was trying to find the ends of this plot with the hotel, tour operator and CKBtravel.com staff. As I expected the next day I got an e-mail from the tour operator, saying that the hotel is fully booked and my reservation is canceled!!! I should mention that CKBTravel.com representative, Yaman, was very friendly and tried to help as much as he could, but, at the end nothing happened. They just offered to put me in some very-very bad hotels instead, with no additional charge!!! Really??? The offers were a joke. So this is how they work they have a nice hotel on their website, and they let you book it only to tell you later that that one is not available any longer and you have to stay somewhere else. AVOID.. AVOID... AVOID.. To all who come across CKBtravel.com make no mistake about it. This is not a booking.com or agoda.com or that sort of a thing. They have outdated information on their website and charge you for stuff that does not even exist.

Yes i can not say different that you are mostly correct in your case. You made your request Saturday Night and requested on Sunday re confirmation of it. On Sunday we have received re confirmation from your request, what they revoked on Monday.

About the alternatives offered they were not near the alternative you wanted for your re confirmed request. And you have chosen to book direct after 1 day your alternative hotel.

I have told you also in the communication that we would provide you an extra up on your stay in the alternative chosen. And sins your stay is in October, we did not yet had the chance to compensate you for the hassle given to you by hotel and local agent.

Just to point out, we never claim to be a Booking.com or an Expedia. As you also experienced we are an intermediary between Guest. Hotel and/or local agents. We work with allotments from local agents (blocked volumes of rooms).

In your case it went wrong due to the weekend. confirmation on Sunday needed and miss communication towards us. (Yes we do take full responsibility for that)

And we never ever re confirm any request after re confirmation is received direct from the hotel.

We process a personal way, not automatically generated. And in that way we satisfy all our guest, trying to make a difference, and give the most service and value for money.

Yes we charged you 20% of your reservations amount (what was not charged online and what is stated to you after the request was send (for this resort) and mentioned on the reservations policy). But we have also straight after you choose to book direct with a hotel refunded you the full.

Once again, also publicly personal and the company, apologize for the inconvenience cause and i keep my word to you.

“Travel arangements made and had all i expected”

★★★★☆

written by on 18/04/2013

I had made a reservation on line and all went very easy. I had a reply the next day and all was arranged. The good thing was that they did not send me to contact the hotels my self, all what i wanted and needed i asked them and they gave me a kind of working answer. I did with them my travel to Istanbul and a Maldives trip for my parents and all was very good in order. I believe i had a good deal and the good was that there was always some one to speak with.
