Stepanova Kate / October 1, 2023
the hotel is located in South Ari Atol, transfer by seaplane 25 min.
After a complete renovation, the hotel opened in 2020. It has been operating under the Outrigger brand since April 2022.
There are 81 villas in the hotel
70% of the villas are water categories, so the basic one is a lagoon villa with a jacuzzi
The island is small with a very well-kept and cozy territory ( 7 min check all around)
I would like to mention the hotel staff who is very friendly and helpful
Excellent food, there is a buffet for breakfast and dinner and 3 ala carte restaurants with different cuisines.
2 minutes away there is an uninhabited island on which it is possible to hold a picnic, a romantic dinner or a wedding ceremony
The hotel is family-friendly but does not have a kids club; for guests with children, the hotel staff conducts activities (for children)
Neighboring hotels with which is possible to do split stay – Nova, Centara Grand and Amaya
