Pros +
- Food is very good. Chef Ashish took special care. And made madilian dishes for us to try. Breakfast is scrumptious. Service may feel a bit slow during peak hours but it is all fresh made. Spa is great. Daily yoga is a treat. Not much coral or see life. nor any activities to engage kids as such. But over all a relaxing place to spend the days.
- Lagoon and ocean access. Activities were well organized and easy access. Proximity to Male made it easy to stay before our primary trip which was a liveaboard from airport.
- The staff were exceptional, special thanks to Simo and Pratha so taking care of us during our stay. Hassan in 24 degrees restaurant for exceptional service during breakfast and dinner and Ismail from the pool restaurant.
Cons -
- The Mediterraneo restaurant - Michelin star chef food looked great but lacked taste. We requested adjacent rooms months in advance and sent repeated reminder but that request was ignored by the front desk. It was a bit of a hasle with kids, which could have been easily avoided.
- The lack of a kids playarea or more activities for kids
- Breakfast service alittle slow

Where to start, we went to celebrate my husband's birthday at this resort, we were met at the airport and immediatel
The cleanliness, the staff, the quick response to guest needs
Activities, People ready to help,food,
Pratha (our butler), Raj (restaurant), Irish (reservations) and Jayant (chef) took great care at every point to ensure our stay was very comfortable. We had a lovely ocean view and relaxing stay.
The boat ride could’ve been more comfortable
DO NOT GO!!!! Totally misadventures! This resort is only for the Indian public!!! We arrived just before Christmas and Christmas was a gala dinner! Food was only Indian, music was only Indian! FOR CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!! Property is not looked after!!! Food it totally overpriced and this is knowing we go 5-6 times per year!!! This resort is NOT 5 star that’s for sure! Terrible reviews from everyone around! We had the most expensive villa and had concrete as a beach!!!
We loved Taj Exotica Resort & Spa! Location was great, not far from Male Airport, about 25 minutes by private speedboat. This resort is definitely worth your money. We received a very great and warm welcome upon arrival. They made Check-in easy, and our room was at the edge of the beautiful ocean. It is a quiet snorkeling Island with lots of coral. This Island is perfect to celebrate a wedding or to have your honeymoon. The staff provided lots of useful information about the Maldives Islands. Housekeeping checked the room daily, if we needed any extras, we requested this to Mr. Aalif, he and his great team did a great job. The room was spotless every. He made sure that we had everything we needed. Breakfast buffet had fresh fruits, smoothies, pastries and many variations, something for everyone (even lactose free). The dinner in the restaurant was extremely delicious, good taste and you really finished your plate. The kitchen staff (Head Chef and his great team) were fantastic! Mr. Aalif and his team were taking care of us. We had a Birthday, and they surprised us with a nice dessert and a beautiful cake in the room, even on our bed was decorated with “Happy Birthday” written with Bamboo leaves. Incredibly beautiful and surprising. The swimming pool was very clean and was next to the sea, the view was fantastic! The most impeccable part of our stay was the entire staff's hospitality, which was A1 and made our stay a very memorable happening. We highly recommend this hotel with their most respected teams of operations. Upon departure you are waved goodbye with sadness with a Banner "We will miss you" a feeling to come back.
Resort was very comfortable. Facilities were very good!Beautiful scenic views.
Motorsport water activities by third parties are outrageous. Very very expensive for the limited services. Prices are more than double!
The staff are friendly and the restaurant chef Jay went out of his way to ensure we were happy with the food.
The resort is directly under the flight path and the noise of the jet engines is constant. The property appears to be run down and needs a refurb. There are no dark out blinds in the bedrooms. There are no safety barriers on the walkway the to the suites. There is a high tide at night and walking to the room is scary. There are no buffets and the a la carte menu is limited.
The view and the large lagoon.
The noise as our deluxe lagoon villa seemed to be in the direct flight path.
Close to Male, beautiful beach and hotel, very good service and attention to detail
Could have more activities, more options for snacks between meals, better music and ambience in restaurants
Excellent service. Very friendly staff. Excellent location. Payel Sengupta took great care of us.
Gym needs an upgrade. Old.
Nice property, spacious villa. Nice breakfast spread. Good food.
We had an unforgettable stay at Taj Exotica Maldives! Special thanks to Pratha, our amazing butler, for making all our wishes come true. Adam and the pool staff were fantastic, and we even got to see sharks! Despite the rough weather, the captains were incredibly experienced and made us feel safe during the 15-minute boat ride from the airport. Overall, an incredible experience in paradise. Highly recommended!
While the food was good, we felt it was quite expensive for the quality and the quantity.
