Maldives, Indian Ocean

Virgin rating

The hotel

Famous for the continuous white sand beach surrounding the entire island, Sun Siyam Iru Fushi is an idyllic setting for romantic and family trips alike. The 52 acre island allows for space and seclusion when you want it, but there are plenty of bars and restaurants with a great atmosphere and live music, when you’re ready for an upbeat evening. Whichever room type you opt for, you won’t be disappointed. Sunset Horizon Water Villas are great for couples getaways – savour that Maldivan sunset each day from your private outdoor jacuzzi with a sundowner in hand, these are some of the most coveted accommodations on the island. If there’s a group of you, you might want to opt for a Pool Beach Villa, with ample space for outdoor drinks on the beachfront terrace and a dip in the private pool. And not forgetting, all villas come with a multilingual butler service! If you’re feeling active then there’s plenty to keep you on your feet, from water sports to tennis, or for a more relaxing activity then visit the award-winning Spa by Thalgo which offers over 160 treatments, the kids will be well looked after in the kids’ club whilst you get some much needed “me time”. And it’s hard to know where to start when it comes to dining, with a choice of 15 bars and restaurants from casual snacks by the pool to teppanyaki at your table, overwater champagne bar to beachfront fine dining, they have it all. You may even just fancy a pizza in the comfort of your villa, no requests is too big!

Oh Sun Siyam Iru Fushi…where do I start? This resort was the most beautiful place we have ever visited as a family. It’s everything you could hope for, white sand beaches, turquoise waters and sunshine. But what really made our trip so special was the amazing staff. Our butler Fayaz went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect. He was at our service at any time during the day and he really made the experience personal to us - by the end of our trip, we felt like we were leaving a friend. This goes for all of the other staff too, the service was absolutely fantastic throughout. The food was delicious and it was the best breakfast buffet we have ever experienced in a hotel. The excursions were fun and hosted really well. The villa was pristine and cleaned twice a day so we also came back to fresh towels and a made bed. We opted for a beach villa with a pool and this was perfect for us as our 3 year old would want to jump in first thing in the morning and last thing at night. We highly recommend the beach villa with a pool for families, it was just perfect. Finally, we attended a friends elopement whilst we were there and Sun Siyam Iru Fushi put on the most wonderful ceremony and wedding package for our friends and it was a pleasure to be part of. Thank you Fayaz and all the team - we will dream of our next visit back until we manage to come again! All our best, Emma, Alfie and Evie Read less
