Centara Grand Lagoon Maldives

Liked: Resort upgrades my villa from two to three rooms without charge. All other aspects are excellent. Our Tourist guide Mr.Inan was really humble and professional.

Disliked: Beach villa pool not fully privet especially for Muslim, I hope if plant more to increase the privacy.

Liked: Absolutely amazing location

Disliked: The fact that they weren’t transparent about the all inclusive package. They have surcharges on majority items. The mini bar is below average

Liked: 5 star hotel

Disliked: too far from male

Liked: The grand 2-bedroom overwater villa was exceptional. Wonderful swimming pools. Very nice to have access to the sister resort next door, giving us plenty of restaurant options and more facilities, too. Half board includes 2 drinks per person per meal. Super friendly staff.

Disliked: Staff service was slow at times. Our appointed staff member was quite busy. A bit crowded and less luxurious than other Maldives resorts. There was construction on the island during our stay. Things like big water tanks were visible to us, which takes away from the magic. Dinner at the main buffet was not great (breakfast was very good!). Lack of attention to details overall.

Liked: Overall, our stay was decent. The speedboat transfer from the airport to the island was a great start—the boat was luxurious, very clean, and the ride was smooth and enjoyable. The resort itself is modern, very clean, and well-maintained. However, the weather wasn't ideal as it rained for several days during our trip. Additionally, the beach near the sunset beach villas has a steep drop-off, making it hard to walk on, and the strong waves made getting into the sea from the water villas quite challenging. The dining experience was a mixed bag. We were very disappointed with The Gallery restaurant—the food lacked variety, and the quality was well below our expectations. On the other hand, Blue Fin (the à la carte restaurant) was fantastic! The food there was significantly better, and we strongly recommend choosing to eat all your meals at Blue Fin rather than The Gallery.

Disliked: One of the most frustrating aspects was the buggy service. We often had to wait up to 30 minutes just for a buggy to arrive, which was quite inconvenient and definitely needs improvement. We also found that the All-Inclusive plan is not worth booking. It is essentially just an "All Meals Included" package with no extra benefits. Keep in mind that all water activities and excursions cost extra, and the prices for them are very high.

Liked: ولا شي

Disliked: الغرف صغيرة مقارنة بباقي المنتجعات في المالديف والخدمة سيئة جداً وبطيئة جداً دفعوني حوالي 10 الاف درهم اضافية بسبب خطا من قبل بوكينق حجز العدد الخاطي للمجموعة والاكل ايضا فالبوفيه سيء ويقولون لك باقي المطاعم فل ولما تروح تتفاجىء انها فاضيه بس يبون يوفرون على نفسهم

Liked: Not much

Disliked: Not friendly staff as pLi was expecting like my previous trips to Maldives with different resorts Room was not clean, previous hair, coffee on table. Dangerous slip from slippery stairs I fell down badly Restaurants full and only i had to repeat tge sane restaurant because other fully booked! I took full board and I regret it No bicycles at all in this resort Buggy driver crashed my son foot without saying sorry I spoke to the manager on duty about all this Ge askedme to send my complaint by email in order he can discuss it with administration Overpriced for the low value I got compared to the other resorts

Liked: ​Our stay was absolutely incredible from start to finish! The resort itself was pristine, the beaches were remarkably clean, and every single staff member greeted us with genuine warmth and friendliness. ​The absolute highlight of our service was our host, Nasa. She truly went above and beyond to make our stay flawless. From beautifully coordinating our anniversary arrangements to handling all our restaurant bookings, and ensuring seamless airport pick-ups and drop-offs, Nasa took care of every single detail with world-class hospitality. She made us feel like VIPs and took such incredible care of us. ​The energy was always amazing with so many fun activities to choose from. It was fantastic that non-motorized water sports were completely complimentary, so we really enjoyed using the stand-up paddleboards and kayaks, and going out on the jet ski was an absolute blast! The resort also boasts a fantastic variety of dining options, but the absolute crown jewel was Blue Fin restaurant—the food and experience there were unmatched! ​Between the beautiful clean beaches, fantastic amenities, and the exceptional care from Nasa, this definitely will not be our last stay. We cannot wait to come back!

Disliked: While there were lots of restaurants to choose from, unfortunately the in room dining had limited options.
