It was our first time to visit the Maldives. We absolutely enjoyed and loved our stay in the water villa. The staff was extremely friendly and so attentive. Mohan and Saif took pride in their work and always made sure that everything was to our satisfaction. I would highly recommend this resort.

RAAYA Life with Chef Shyamal and the Juice King was awesome. At RAAYA by Atmosphere, this place is a home away from home when you feel like family. This is the best vacation experience, and I have been taking exotic vacations for years. RAAYA life experience would not have been the same without Chef Shyamal, Anky, Mohan, Juice King and many others including Kaka from house keeping.

Friendly welcoming and perfect resort for families and couples. The all inclusive option is a great. Rooms are well kept and good size with beautiful views. Options of both over water and beach villas - over water pool villa was the better option. Cannot fault it and would definitely recommend.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property is relatively new, so no visible defects or signs of wear. Most of the employees are friendly and serviceminded. What I experienced as less positive: - employees who are functional friendly and not warm friendly. I expected more warm friendliness in a 5* resort. There were also employees who didn't even greet you when you encounter them, which I found quit rude, especially because it wasn't busy. - Also did I get the wrong information about a bathtub in the villa, when I called reservations before I made the booking. I only find out when we arrived at the villa. - Most of the restaurant employees were nice and friendly, but seem to have insufficient experience in how to serve on high standard, eg don't reach over the plate or guest while taking away used dishes and glasses, try to avoid touching guests near the table you're cleaning, clean the floor directly after something is spilled on it because some guests walk barefoot.

My husband and I absolutely enjoyed our stay at Raaya! The free transfers as well was a great perk. We were greeted at the airport in Male and were taken to where we were supposed to go for the seaplane transfer. The resort itself was gorgeous, everything about it was incredible, staff was super nice and helpful. We had Saif as our guide throughout our stay and he was great.

The island is lovely great staff, it has a good selection of food and drinks. It is let down but the arrivals/departures. They do not tell you your flight times until the day of and we ended up waiting in the airport for 3 hours on arrival and a further 5 hours on departure. On arrival they do offer a lounge but on departure nothing is offered and you can't even check your bags as it's soo early so it's a long wait in a very loud airport.

First impressions were good, lovely arrival to a beautiful resort. Overwater pool villa was breathtaking and very well equipped Restaurants were very good most of the time. Staff were mostly polite. Weather was not on our side which is out of their control thus meaning sunset/fishing cruises were understandably cancelled. Strange that the paid for boat trips most went ahead! Everyday activities were cancelled without knowledge host failed to inform us. We would only find out by trying to attend. Excuse was always the weather. Football is played in rain,but was cancelled, although again the staff game went ahead! Water aerobics was not even raining when this should have been played. No staff turned up. Billiards which is undercover in sports bar was cancelled. Only found out by attending. This is ridiculous, the weather has no baring on this and was not raining at time. We complained and staff members then put on Archery which is strange considering this is an outside activity but the billiards which is undercover was cancelled. Overall we had a good holiday but this part overshadowed our stay, I’m not sure we would return. Day of depart a storm came in, asked if we could be picked up by a buggy as we had over 20hrs travel ahead, we were told no use an umbrella, hence travelling wet! Told seaplane 9.35am for 12.35am inter flight. Not enough time, we nearly missed check in at Male had to keep it open for us. We had to run to make it. Very stressful end to a special holiday!

Truly an unforgettable experience from start to finish arriving in paradise via seaplane! The island, room and food were wonderful. Our trip was made extra special by all the amazing staff, the most attentive and personalised experience I’ve ever received and it wouldn’t have been the same without them. Lots of activities and areas to relax, we enjoyed snorkelling, a sunset cruise and our massage the most. We will be back!!
