Kaani Palm beach was excellent hotel. I enjoyed my 3 days with very good breakfast. My room was beach facing with balcony. Clean and resonabily maintained service items. One of the plugs was not work. I repoted and they sent a electrician straightway. A small but decent infinitely pool was very good with excellent views. Face to face communication was very good with the staff. But over the telephone, it was a bit weak. The weakest link is the advise on transfer from the airport to Maafushi is less frequent outside of 7 am to 6 pm, also the costly. Hope some clear information transfers and well published timetables would have been very useful.

“Pleasant Stay.” Positive Points: 1. Amazing view from the balcony (top floor). 2. Wonderful location (travel-friendly crowd). 3. ⁠Staffs of the restaurant were well-trained. Negative Points: 1. The difference of the room rate from one website to another (or direct rate from the property) is huge. 2. ⁠Staffs of the reception should be professional.

We stayed here for 9 nights, celebrating our 20th anniversary! PROS: staff - some staff members (Karim in the restaurant) go above and beyond, excursions were fantastic - we done snorkeling with sharks and the turtles, both were brilliant, the staff running these excursions are amazing and do absolutely everything in their power to make sure you have the best experience, a la carte dining is exceptional, pool, spa etc were all great, I'd recommend having a massage while you're here. CONS: our bedding was not changed once, housekeeping was quite basic, our room was tiny (city view 2905) as was the balcony-not the room shown on expedia, the minute you arrive you're bombarded with excursion options - which were massively oversubscribed, the shower pressure in our room was a poor, there was a terrible smell, we asked them to look at this and they sent someone up who turned it on and said its ok and left. Whilst out one night a storm hit, on return to our room there was puddles of water on the ledge above the bed, mattress, bedding was soaked, maintenence came up climbed outside and pointed out where water was coming in, said they'd sort it, but no mention of wet bed, my husband said no this was the last straw we want moved, the boy that came to take us to the new room was really rude basically indicating we'd done it! New room was huge, shower pressure perfect, huge balcony and the same as on expedia! We did have a great time, its a lovely hotel and we'd come back.

I have just returned to Canada after my stay at Palm beach hotel. I had a great vacation thanks to the efforts of the Palm beach staff and especially Magic (ask for him). The room was clean and the food was good. I tried almost all the excusrions they had and I was very happy that I gave it a try as I enjoyed every single one ( Hasan will take amazing pictures of you ). I strongly recommand this hotel.

It was probably the best hotel for the amount of money we paid. Its definitely not luxurious or anything. There is no AC except in the hotel room. The food buffet is terrible, wet bread, rice and chicken every day. The breakfast doesn't even have real bread, ham and cheese or anything like that. Its better to just book the hotel and eat in the restaurants right next to it. The bed was very comfortable and the room was clean.

Great Property poor staff focus - Customer Service
Great property for an open island stay Excellent location with options for sports activities and restaurants very close to the hotel The hotel has its private beach, well maintained & great view from the hotel Customer service needs a complete revisit. Due to the dominant position of Kaani Palm hotel, staff only focused on add-on sales but not focused on customer service. Poor communication skills lead to staff becoming too argumentative and over-explaining why requests or services can not be provided rather than helping customers. Issues faced: - When we booked almost 3 month+ early, we requested all 3 rooms to be next to each other. No acknowledgment at the time of check-in and the staff explained too long why the request is a request and should not have expected it to be honored rather than look for it. - Poor check-in experience since it took almost half an hour for the front desk to check in as they fumbled over each other to check in. - The TV did not work for 3 days (in our 3 rooms booked) and none of the staff solved it after continuous complaints each day. (Probably this is because each connection cost money and staff was not interested to hence solve it) - Specific office staff (Kadir) assigned for our 3 rooms- once he got the tip after dropping our first day. Only checked once for booking excursions but any issue was reported he just ignored We used iCom company (close to resort) for transportation and water excursions (much cheaper & excellent)
