Our first time visiting the Maldives — and as very experienced travelers who are used to exploring different destinations, we were slightly worried about feeling restless being on a single island. However, the moment we stepped off the plane and were welcomed by Rojila, we completely fell in love with the island.
The water villa was fantastic, the food was excellent, the wines were outstanding, and the people truly made our stay unforgettable. The hospitality and atmosphere exceeded our expectations and created a truly special experience.
One important observation that I also shared directly with Rojila is that the hotel should provide clearer information to guests about how to swim and snorkel responsibly without damaging the coral reefs or marine life. As a diver, I am fully aware that touching, standing on, or stepping on coral is harmful and must be avoided — but not all guests know this. Unfortunately, we saw several people standing on the reefs, and many corals had already died, which was very sad to witness.
We all have a responsibility to protect nature, the ocean, and its marine ecosystem. The hotel has an important role in educating guests and setting clear expectations to ensure the environment is respected and preserved.
Aside from this, everything was absolutely wonderful, and we are already looking forward to coming back. Extra thanks to Rojila, who did everything possible to make our stay comfortable and truly memorable.
