Provider-sourced guest reviews.
レストランがとても美味しかった。スタッフが親切で素晴らしかった。 部屋も広く、景色も最高。 アクティビティーもとても楽しかった。 何よりも、部屋数が少ないので、レストランもどこも、混雑してなくて、とても優雅に過ごせた。
Well designed villas, good reef, friendly staff, ease of logistics to reach the island, tennis court and open air cinema. Good breakfast and grill night. Excellent spa
Nothing much, lovely stay and overall good service. Sometimes the butlers did not react as fast to requests but overall good service.
Everything was beyond our expectation. Especially loved the sustainability purposes and coral line project which made our trip even more meaningful and want to return as a family.
everything. excellent hotel, amazing staff
when we booked the room, it was not super clear that the third bed would be in the master bedroom. i think more info about the rooms setup is needed
Kindness of the team and staff The room was amazing Services was great Food at restaurants
Tutto perfetto e tutti perfetti !

After a ton of research, my husband and I chose this resort for our honeymoon and we were so happy we did! The island and resort are beautiful but so are many in the Maldives what set this place apart was the service. In the reviews everyone raved about the service and now that we experienced it we know why! You get a dedicated concierge upon your arrival who ensures you have a wonderful time and plans your stay according to your preferences so you can just enjoy and relax. But it goes beyond that, we were surprised with so many special and personal touches that just put the service above and beyond anything we expected. The food is excellent, the spa service was wonderful. We could not recommend this place any more especially for couples looking for a romantic getaway! We cannot wait to come back!
The best part of our Gili experience was the staff, whose efficiency and attentiveness truly stood out. Without their efforts — and especially the support of Zuba — the stay would have fallen far short of expectations.
The over-development of Malé has unfortunately compromised the tranquil nature that once defined Gili. It is a shame that the Maldivian government has not enforced stricter codes for architecture and visual impact, as current policies are having a negative effect on the overall setting. The constant trailers and supply routes of tankers also disturbed the natural sightlines and serenity of the resort. At the resort level, Gili appears to be held back by rigid brand guidelines rather than adapting to evolving guest expectations. There is a clear need to better understand current social media trends and the demands of today’s luxury travelers. We also faced challenges with guest behavior: for example, certain groups disturbed us at the pool, and some unhygienic habits (such as spitting and nose-blowing) were not addressed by staff, which negatively impacted the experience. The overall maintenance of the resort felt adequate but not exceptional — likely a result of budgetary and manpower constraints. From our perspective, it seems HPL management is cutting costs ahead of their contract expiry, which comes across as a short-sighted strategy. This approach reflects poorly on the long-term vision of the resort and risks damaging the reputation of the Ongs.
Mr.Friday,Teslaのサポートは抜群でした!全てが最高の天国です。
Easily accessible by 15-20 minute speedboat transfer. Warm hospitality and impeccable service. Breakfast menus change each day. Dinner inclusion in half-board is different each night so get to try different cuisine. Same butler (Mr/Ms Friday) throughout the entire stay which is great. Crystal clear turquoise water, very beautiful. Highly recommended and I would love to return to Gili in the near future.
The best holiday experience ever. Staff, service and accommodation were all the best they could be.
Nothing it was perfect
Loyalty, hotel team attention, caring and absolutely feeling you like at home, perfect every day dinner menu.
The location near Male makes for a quick and easy arrival transfer. The villas are the best I've ever seen - any others fall woefully short in comparison. Lastly, the staff and hospitality is unmatched. Not only is every need met, but it is done so with genuine enthusiasm and humility. The entire staff is so friendly and kind.
The Crusoe rooms were incredible and a unique experience. The staff are extremely friendly and accommodating. The food was average with limited options. The location is great in the sense of accessibility from Male, however, that's also why it's not ideal in terms of heavy boat traffic around the hotel.
Super clean villa with stunning view. Staffs are extremely friendly and caring and really understand your needs. This amazing resort offers peace, nature, love and luxury.

Best holiday I've ever had
Upgrading to the Lagoon Villa was definitely worth it; the view from our sundeck was absolutely amazing! I had been concerned about whether the water would be deep enough for swimming, but it exceeded my expectations. The uninterrupted views of the sunset made the upgrade truly worthwhile. Having visited five different resorts in the Maldives over the past 20 years, I can confidently say this was the most beautiful one yet. Thank you to Rodrigo and all the staff for making our stay so fantastic!

This was our third visit and it was as fantastic as always. It’s paradise and we can’t wait to return. The people are amazing and the food superb. We can’t think of anything that they could improve (apart from some crisps in the mini bar :)) FABULOUS!!!!!
We had the best time!!! Such a beautiful resort, I would definitely revisit even although this was our first trip to the Maldives. We done four nights and it didn’t feel long enough, could’ve spent a few weeks here! Great food and choices of meals and cocktails 🙌
Beautiful property with great food and service
Everything, super friendly staff, the location is incredibile and the food is super. It is my second time here and won’t be the last. Everything is purely perfect! A special thanks to our Mr Friday, Thasleem, for have created a perfect holiday for me and my daughter. They were very thoughfull to create a special holiday.
I thought it was too expensive just for staying in some calm place, but after experiencing what they offered, I feel it deserves the cost. The resort life there is totally different from what we got in Hawaii or in Guam. Compared with the life in Gili Lankanfushi in Maldives, Hawaii or Guam are like urban city, not real resorts.
SO AMAZING, PURE PARADISE!
Public areas were always kept in clean condition and easily accessible. The island and areas for dining were absolutely breathtaking. Loved that you can either fill your day with activities or do nothing and relax. The villas are large and equipped with anything you would need.
Nothing. Everything was amazing
Absolutely everything was incredible! The villa was perfect - clean, comfortable and fully equipped with everything you could need. The facilities, entertainment and whole resort set up was well planned, ran smoothly and catered to our every need. We really enjoyed the snorkelling opportunity and the spa experience. The food and drinks were varied, delicious and exceeded all expectations. The whole staff were exceptional and couldn’t have done more to make our stay more comfortable and enjoyable. When we visited, I was 23 weeks pregnant and every single member of staff went out of their way to be friendly and accommodating, making sure we felt looked after at all times. We were particularly appreciative of the private speedboat transfer to make our journey as smooth as possible. A special mention to Miffy, our Mr Friday, for being absolutely fantastic and making our baby moon so special. We would 100% recommend this resort and hope to make it back one day!
Amazing stay mainly because of the excellent hospitality from the staff. 2nd stay at Gili happy to see high retention rate of staff despite the fact that 2 years have passed.
Everything was amazing!! From the food to the staff to the view to the room. Couldn’t of been happier with it all
The best place I’ve ever stayed in my life start to finish the staff where amazing and made us feel special. What a place !! Can’t wait to go back
Small, Boutique and very high end while being very environmentally conscious.
NOTHING
Outstanding !! Staff is superb and the views breathtaking
Excellent.
We loved everything! Beautiful room. Amazing property. Staff are so kind.
Det beste vi har opplevd av denne type reise, alt overgikk forventningene og ansatte gjør sitt ytterste for at gjester skal ha det optimalt. Egen Butler på samtlige Villaer topper det hele, er online 24/7 og hjelper med alt.😊
Leading up to the vacation, we had read plenty of reviews raving about the experience, but in reality, I don't think there's anything that can prepare you for the bliss that Gili is. Although there seemed to be a good amount of guests, we often felt the privacy and peace of feeling that we were among very few. The entire experience feels very intimate and personalized. We snorkeled almost every day - it was incredibly exciting to witness the aquatic life at the very footsteps of our villa. The room setup and facilities are beautiful and so thoughtfully arranged, the staff is accommodating, the food options are varied and delicious, and the activities are plentiful for those who seek them. We loved the barefoot life and riding our bicycles every day! The location is a short boat trip from the airport, and yet in that small amount of time, you will come to feel completely transported to a true heaven on earth.
We didn't like leaving. Truly such a wonderful vacation that the bar has been set incredibly high for our future trips. Thank you Gili <3
Everything there’s no one thing to not like
Everything! Best hotel we have stayed. We went to Gili to finish our honeymoon and it was the most wonderful time ever. From the incredible blue water over the pool villa to the staff and everything in between. I COULD NOT RECOMMEND IT MORE for your honeymoon or any other romantic trip. We will be back!!!
Nothing! everything was perfect
Beautiful island. Staff are the most amazing part of the whole experience: happy, friendly and super helpful
Incredible place and an incredible hotel. Nothing like anywhere else I’ve ever stayed. Every meal is unbelievably good and every member of staff knows your name, wherever you are on the island.
Nothing. I tried really hard to think of some feedback!
Solo me gustaría que mejoraran la comida . Pero el hotel y el servicio fue excelente
What a paradice! I loved my experience. Staff is very friendly and food is amazing. I loved how many different fresh juices they have. Breakfast is so good whit many different options. I was on the island early in the morning but got my room right away and when I was leaving I got to stay in the room after check out time.
Its a beautiful place to visit
The colour of the water, the sand and the sky were perfect. The villas were enormous and meant you were happy to be in them all day. There were loads of staff looking to make everything perfect. It was the most relaxing and beautiful place.
I was there with my wife looking for relaxation, I think people looking for activity would be better off elsewhere. Slightly picky, but during meals too many people asked me if I was happy, which at some point became slightly irritating.
Fantastic, exceptional, incredible, all superlatives for this place and the wonderful people who make this place so. Special thanks to Bobbo, and the exceptionally talented Chef Hari. We would visit again , again, again ....

Amazing staff and service
Everything! The place is amazing, the resort concept based on natural and sustainable materials. The staff is great and help you to have an unforgettable experience
Gili surpassed all expectations during my recent visit, recommended by my son for its Maldivian paradise. A seamless journey began with a friendly guide at MLE airport, leading to a quick 20-minute boat ride to the resort's dock. Gili's speedboat ensured a swift arrival in about an hour, setting the tone for an exceptional experience. The island's rustic charm complemented my spacious Duplex villa, providing privacy with separate pavilions for bedrooms, living areas, and bathrooms. The culinary experience, led by Chef Harry and Monice, was exceptional, with a variety of high-quality breakfast offerings. Exploring underwater wonders with Mr. Friday, Ismail, was a highlight, showcasing Gili's commitment to guest satisfaction. The impeccable service, personalized touches, and magical atmosphere make Gili a resort worth returning to—an extraordinary experience that left an indelible mark on my memories. I wholeheartedly recommend Gili for romantic getaways or family trips, as it holds a special place in my heart.
Everything! Spacious, comfortable, rustic/traditional, good taste, layout, amenizeis, etc.

the location was great 15-20minutes to the airport. clean and luxurious villas. The people who work there are wonderful and polite. Great activities at the placeI loved the place so much that I would definitely visit again!
nothing, it was perfect
Everything was just perfect, right from the beginning until the last second. The team made our honeymoon an unforgettable one, starting from our Mrs. Friday (Jaisha) to Hafeez, Ahmet and everyone who supported us. The facility was unreal, everything was customized for us (even the food menu had our names on it). Food was spot on, every night had a different theme and I honestly cant describe how good it was. We had the best time so far and honestly Gili raised the bar way too high, we will definitely be celebrating one anniversary there.
Nothing, all was beyond perfect.
Spacious bungalow, food quality especially the coffee!
nothing
-It’s just 20 minutes from Velena International Airport. So, more tome to enjoy the resort on the 1st day. -Very beautiful view. The resort has about three or more stunning beaches, each with its own uniqueness. -Comfortable villas, clean and spacious with all the needed amenities. -The water near the villas is crystal clear and calm, very safe for swimming. -The staffs are attentive and friendly, especially our Mr. Friday, Mr. Zubba.
-The food
Beautiful island with lots of sealife. Great hospitality, the staff is very friendly as on all the islands in the Maldives. We really loved the Japanese restaurant, the food is so good. The Thai therapist in the spa is amazing!
I don’t recommend this island with kids. There is no kids club and no entertainment. The activities/tours are way too overpriced if you compare it with other resorts on the Maldives and not a lot of options.
This is the best example to describe a perfect hotel. They got everything: sustainable, good food, amazing staff and beautiful areas
