Sun Siyam Iru Veli

Just finished a week at sun Siyam Iru veli with my husband and all I can say is WOW! This was our first time to the Maldives so we weren’t really sure what to expect. We spent a lot of time researching different resorts and I couldn’t be happier with our final decision. We truly got everything we hoped for and more. Here are some specifics. One of the things that surprised my husband and I was how peaceful and tranquil the resort was. Many times we’d be walking around the island and not a soul in sight! If you are looking for a calm, relaxing, and romantic vacation without a crowded party vibe, this place is perfect. The resort does a very good job at reserving spots for adults only which I really appreciated. There was an adults only seating section of the buffet and it was always really peaceful and calm so my husband and I sat there every time. They also had an adults only pool which was always very quiet and relaxing. I loved this part of the resort because we were a bit nervous about picking a non adults only resort but they do a great job accommodating couples without kids who just want more of a romantic vibe! Food: the food was great! We LOVED the buffet! We also really loved Grouper. To be honest, Roma was just ok. We always looked forward to the meals at the buffet, there were so many options and always delicious. Grouper was very romantic and it was nice to order off the menu. The drinks were delicious and the staff does an excellent job letting us know if something wasn’t included in our all inclusive. We did the premium all inclusive and have no regrets! Almost all of the drinks were included and we always had a huge range of choices! Excursions/add ons: we did the floating breakfast, dolphin cruise (saw so many it was amazing), a spa day, and the special dinner on the beach. We loved all of these! The sunset dolphin cruise was definitely a highlight! Staff: the staff here goes above and beyond! I loved having an ambassador, this part was so wonderful to have someone to message anytime we needed anything. Our ambassador was Adam and he was very friendly, and constantly checked in to see if we needed anything. We truly felt pampered beginning to end and felt so cared for! During breakfast, Vijay looked after us almost every morning and he was so kind and provided incredible service every day. The customer service was unlike anything I’ve ever experienced! Villa: we stayed in the dolphin villas and I’m so happy about this decision! The snorkeling right off our deck was incredible! We loved the private pool as well. The sunrises were absolutely gorgeous and we saw turtles, sharks and sting rays every single morning beneath our deck. Overall this place will be very difficult to top! I’m so happy we decided to stay at Sun Siyam Iru Veli!
