It's 5 months since our stay at the Sun Siyam Olhuveli resort and to be honest we very rarely post a review. However, the memories that the 4 of us share of our time exploring the three islands that make up the resort are so special that after nearly half a year we wanted to post a thank you to all the team who make this such a beautiful place to be. We loved exploring the house reef, chilling out on different beaches and getting to know some of the great staff. Our favourite place to chill was the Dhoni bar - Hoodh and Sang deserve a special mention, they were so attentive and fun to be around, it was a pleasure to get to know them a little! The team in the restaurant were fab - especially the young man who looked after the fruit (MD Rana). Sujan kept our water villas clean, tidy and well stocked. The Sun Siyam Olhuveli provided an amazing family holiday, memories of which will stay with us forever! Thank you!

We had an absolutely amazing vacation at Sun Siyam Olhuveli! From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by the staff, who went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. Hana, in particular, stood out with her kindness and attentiveness, making us feel right at home. The resort itself is stunning, with breathtaking views, pristine beaches, and beautifully maintained facilities.
The food was another highlight of our trip. With a variety of cuisines to choose from, every meal was a delight. The buffet offered fresh and delicious options daily, and the specialty restaurants provided a wonderful dining experience. Whether we were enjoying seafood by the beach or indulging in international dishes, everything was of exceptional quality.
There was never a dull moment during our stay, as the resort offered an array of activities for all ages. From water sports like snorkeling and kayaking to relaxing at the spa, there was something for everyone. We also loved exploring the vibrant marine life through diving excursions, which were unforgettable.
Overall, Sun Siyam Olhuveli exceeded all our expectations. The perfect combination of excellent service, delicious food, and fun activities made our trip truly memorable. We can’t wait to return and create more wonderful memories!

My wife and I decided to spend 8 nights in the beautiful resort Sun Siyam Olhuveli. In the first 4 days we stayed in the beach villa with private sunbeds. Unforgettable experience because you feel immersed in nature thanks to the Maldivian outdoor bath. Very spacious and clean room. Staff always smiling and kind, who took care of the cleaning of our villa. The last 4 days we spent in the deluxe water villa. Wonderful room with two bathrooms, entrance hall, lounge and very spacious and comfortable bed. The resort is huge and full of comfort and the staff is always very attentive to the needs of customers. Olhuveli offers many activities including snorkeling, which my wife and I did and loved, disco, concerts, 2 spas, lots of water sports and various more restaurants at the buffet, thanks to adbulah , suraj , rawat to take care of us every morning We had dinner at Thai restaurant and Indian restaurant Namaste. The cook nasir of Namaste is very kind and above service from Akash, khaled , sang beyond the exception . We ate the softest chicken of our lives and tried excellent flavor mixes. Sun Siyam Olhuveli is a magical place I would recommend to anyone.

We had a wonderful stay at Sun Siyam. We stayed in a beach suite with pool, which was the perfect size for our family (2 adults and 2 children).
A special mention to Upeka, who did an amazing job cleaning and tidying our room every morning, plus a super turn down service every evening. She really is a dream, so polite and great at her job.
