Guangxin Rong / August 7, 2013
It’s a great resort that I have been. The people were very nice, and the view is fantasic.
But the buffet resturant was too hot and without air condition or wind, so have a meal is not comfortable.

Location: in the southern part of Ari Atoll
Transfer: 25 minutes by seaplane or 20 minutes by domestic flight + 20 minutes by speedboat
The island is small approximately: 325×200 you can go around in 10 minutes
I would like to note that family water villa – which is made with the utmost care and safety for families, as it has well-fenced area This is rare for water м villa
The hotel has a relaxed and cozy atmosphere, it is pleasant to walk
barefoot all day. , excellent food and very hospitable and helpful staff. Care is taken at all stages of the staying from arrival to departure. The SPA is a plus – a democratic price, Filipino specialists will help you enjoy the spa treatments and get the most out of it
The entrance to the sea is good, shoes are not required, the sand is soft There is house reef, good enough.
I recommend for a relaxing holiday for those who are looking for coziness, comfort and relaxation (couples, families).
If you asked me if I want to return – I would answer definitely yes!)

I liked the resort for its stunning beaches and the sea. I was inspired by the color of the sea here. It’s crystal blue waters and it looks like a true Bounty island.
Here you can find an amazing house reef around the Island! It’s multicolored and it’s lot of fish! You can see it even while a swimming from your water villa which is an amazing experience. The hotel got some significant awards for having such a beautiful house reef. It’s really worth seeing it!
In Centara Grand the kids club is not big but looks very pretty and full of toys. It’s one big room and with a play ground outside. It’s named Camp Safari. It’s for childs from 4 to 9 years old. But they also have a game center- a room with board games for children and adults.
The main differences in meal plans are:
Meal plan “AlI’ includes 3-course set menu at Suan Bua and Azurri Mare restaurants during lunch and dinners. Minibar replenished once a day as per resort set up. Stay 12 nights and above includes Banana boat ride or tube rides once per stay.
Grand AlI includes 4-course set menu at Suan Bua and Azurri Mare restaurants during lunch and dinners and additionally 1-time Teppanyaki at the Reef Restaurant once per person per stay for minimum 5 nights. Premium beverages served during the meals in dinig outlets (lunch and dinner) Minibar replenished with a “premium set up”. Guest can enjoy a spa credit and an excursions per adult per stay.
The island is not big, and it’s very comfortable to be able to reach any part of it in 5-7 min maximum.
I like a touch of Pan Asian vibe here as well as a flavorful Pan Asian cuisine.
In SPA I tried an amazing massage therapy. You can find any kind of massage here with a good price. Massage therapists are very professional here.
The Italian restaurant “Azzuri Mare” is just the best one. I enjoyed seafood and some traditional Italian dishes here.
We lived in Duplex Beach Villa which was very cosy, clean and with very affordable rate.
In the evenings we had a lot of fun at a local disco dancing and playing billiards. It was always something to do on the island. I would recommend it for couples and families. And I would definitely come back again!
