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.

Gili Lankanfushi is a simple yet very elegant resort. It is in perfect harmony with the surroundings. All the villas are built over the water and they are not your regular bungalows. They are beautiful, spacious apartments that have the most stunning views I have ever seen. No detail has been overlooked when it comes to the interior design of the villa that I stayed in (#10). It is open, breezy, quiet, very clean. I had the best sleep of my life. I came for a short vacation for a much need it recovery time and I left completely rejuvenated: body, mind and soul. When you wake up in the morning, the first thing you see when you open your eyes is the most beautiful turquoise waters all around you. The dinning on this island was above and beyond my expectations. One cannot use adjectives like "good" or "delicious" to describe it because it will not do any justice. The flavors, textures, overall presentation all invite you to slow down and savor every bite you take. After each dining experience, I was left with a sense of complete happiness and satisfaction. The “Over the water” sushi restaurant is an experience out of this world. You can tell that the chef, Hari, is not just talented but also passionate and creative about this work with a key eye to details. This came through in every dish he prepared for me. The island is filled with lush vegetation and there's an overall sense of tranquility. It is like a forgotten piece of paradise in the middle of the Indian Ocean.
