General Comments
One and Only Kanuhura has to be one of the most well-planned resorts anywhere. The sheer quality of service and facilities makes this place a must-visit island. Having just done a manic 10-day tour of Northern India, we were ready for sheer indulgence.



The only issue we had was the delay with the Air Taxi at Male (but this is nothing to do with the resort). One & Only seemed to be the only resort with an air-conditioned lounge at Male airport. We ate fruit and drank beer while everyone sweated outside waiting for the transport to arrive...



The sand is immaculate, staff incredibly friendly. The food is out-of-this-world, even at the main restaurant where food is buffet-style. Breakfasts on the beach are a joy. A chef for your eggs, a chef for your pancakes and a chef for all your fruit....



We stayed in a beach villa. Fantastic bed, made up twice a day. Outside bathroom was a joy. Walk out onto pure white sand and turquoise sea.



Diving is amazing: saw turtles, sharks, rays, tuna...The sunset fishing trip is a blast and they even cook your catch for free the next day. Snorkelling is great too.



Pool, bar and spa was lovely. The treatments are great. The whole emphasis on this island is about being pampered and treated like royalty. I particularly liked the discreet and extremeley competent staff that make the island really work well.



This place is not cheap but you really do get the level of customer care and facilities you would expect for this much cash. Avoid paying $5 for bottled water - the tap water is fine to drink.



We were honeymooners but there were plenty of facilities for young families. Despite there being over 150 people on the island, it felt like we hardly saw anyone. Empty beaches and space.



I really cannot fault this place, and I am a picky and fussy old git. We will be going back, make no mistake.
