Value for money
Nice resort with good opportunities for snorkling and diving. There are many fish and reef sharks. Also opportunities for other watersports like supping, and waterscooters. All-inclusive offers reasonable opportunities for food and drinks. Very friend staff.

The beach was beautiful and the room was nice. The staff let you seek them out if you needed anything, which may have been intentional to allow quiet and privacy but we were expecting more of a luxury resort atmosphere. It was more of a secluded island get away.very hot and expensive.The staff was kind and helpful when we asked for anything.

The resort is 8 km by sea from Malè, 15 minutes by speedboat. In fact, standing on the beach and looking to the left from the island you can see Malè with its port, merchant ships and its skyline of skyscrapers, it is not a pretty sight and it is not such a remote atoll as it seems from the photos. There are motorboats at sea going to and from Malè to the other atolls, and planes heading for the other islands continually pass overhead. However, it is comfortable, the food is good, and the resort is clean even if a little old and the staff is friendly. On the island there are Carletto (little Charles), Giulietto (little Julius) and Franchino (little Frank), three roosters who crow day and night and night and day. It's like being in a chicken coop. the Resort is a 3 star not 4.

L'isola è molto piccola e la barriera corallina è veramente poca, per non dire che quasi non c'è, a parte qualcosa davanti alla spiaggia principale davanti al bar, dove si trovano gli ombrelloni. La spiaggia è molto grande e bella ma c'è solo in quella zona, non è possibile infatti fare il giro esterno dell'isola perché il mare di lato e dietro ha portato via la spiaggia del tutto. Avevamo la camera garden room n.240 si trovava a 2 minuti poco più dalla spiaggia e dal ristorante, camera carina e abbastanza spaziosa, bagno con doccia grandissima e comoda, soggiorno in pensione completa, tra l'altro preso ad un ottimo prezzo. Menzione merita la cucina, si mangia veramente bene e a sorpresa l'acqua naturale e gassata che fanno loro è gratuita, di solito solo di acqua si spendeva molto in altre isole visitate. Il nostro room boy lasciava molto a desiderare si limitava veramente a tirare solo su' le lenzuola del letto, a differenza di altre isole qui, almeno nella nostra stanza, la pulizia è stata molto molto scarsa. Pesci ci sono ma non tanti come in altre isole, nessuna tartarughe avvistata invece diverse squaletti. La mattina prima delle 7 e 30, va preso il posto in spiaggia o altrimenti si trova tutto occupato dai teli degli altri ospiti. Concludendo mi è piaciuta, non ha una laguna grande e per fortuna non ci sono quegli orrendi water bungalow a deturparla. L'isola tutto sommato merita, era la decima volta alle maldive e ho apprezzato il transfert di solo 10 minuti.

We stayed two weeks in Malahini Kuda Bandos in a Garden Room. The room was nice. The cleaning was ok also, but sometimes we had to ask from the reception for towels etc and the cleaning times were unpredictable. The island is small and closeness to Male is both a good thing (transfer times) and a bad thing (lots of trafic and the view to Hulhumale was not great). The sand on the island has shifted almost totally to the other side of the island where the main beach is located, so some of the pictures I had seen before weren't accurate anymore, but we actually enjoyed the small area near Bar75 more than the big beach. Also the bar was much better than the big bar on the main beach, where the drinks weren't good and service wasn't great either. But in Bar75 Harsha made great drinks and was very nice and provided excellent service. Food in main restaurant was great and the guys working behind the "Live food" counter were always nice and smiling, so were the waiters. We had half board and the drinks, especially a bottle of wine, was really expensive and I felt that the island was more expensive to for example Sun Island Villa Resort, where I've been many times. For the room we got a good deal from Expedia. The weather wasn't great and it was very cloudy and windy almost all the time, so we didn't do any excursions and did very little snorkeling.

DISAPPOINTED WITH MALAHINI KUDA BANDOS
We’ve found the front desk customer service was very poor as our booking was included free transfers from Male but not with Expedia Booking according to them even though it’s in our bookings. That’s already ruined our start of the vacation. Then on check out they wanted to charge the Pringle chip which we didn’t even have them. I believe one of their stuff ate them cuz the house keeping guy asked us to leaving our room door open for cleaning, so anyone can go into our room. However the Malaga team did a good job from kitchen to the servers, Anil, Eni, Amaya, anesa,Salina, Supun & Juman. The buffet food was very well prepared & taste so good unless most of other buffet food either being too salty or too sweet. Not sure why it was being advertised newly renovated cuz one night I needed to carry an umbrella going to the bathroom. I almost fell down due to the floor was very slippery. Finally we got to moved to another room. We’ve tried not to have this negativity to affect the rest of our experience in Maldives. We are island hopping for 3 weeks. This is our first island. The beach was too rocky & stepping into water the smell of sewage to make unbearable to stay too long. The video with white sand blue water are not quite true though. We were very disappointed! I will give Malahini 0 star without Malaga Team.

Nice resort, big, clean and very comfy rooms. Beach chairs are quite hard, it would be good if they had some cushions. Very convenient to travel from/to Male airport. Buffet food is nice but a bit bland, not much fish or local food. Very good vegetarian options. Beach is ok, water can get a bit murky at times and there are lots of rocks so beach shoes are recommended.

The best part of this resort, asides from the per beauty of the island is the people that work there. From Imthyaz, Vanesa, Eni, the Marine Hub Crew, they make you feel so welcomed and are so kind. This time, I also enjoyed the excursions, the food is amazing. I'll keep coming back to Malahini.

Dissapointing stay...misleading Hotels.com info...
We went as a couple for a couple of days based on the Hotels.com listing that the Hotel had pool and bath tubs for all visitors. Upon arriving, we were informed that there were no public pools or bath tubs and if we wanted one, we have to pay another $250 per night to upgrade the rooms to villa with a pool. Since it is an island you cannot even turn around despite the misleading information on the Hotels.com website.We would have definitely chosen another property had we known that there were no public pools. Having said that, the kitchen chefs were excellent and made special effort to prepare vegetarian meals for us.

Fabulous staff and Fabulous island
The staff were fabulous and work so very, very hard. They do everything with a smile. The island is beautiful and close to Male so short transfer. Something to be mindful off when booking an island in the Maldives, if you don't want a long transfer after a long flight. I have no complaints

Poor service - far from a 5star hotel
The hotel is not a 5 star, except if you are not used to great hotels worldwide. The team lacks training and although most of the employees smile a lot, they have no idea how to speak to customers and have terrible English speaking skills. Several items are similar to a 1 star hotel like used towels being worse than floor cleaning tissues. When changing rooms because of terrible bathroom smell, the porter took one bag and left the room without helping with the other 3 luggages. With no explanation, taxes summed the same amount of the daily rate for the room. Pizza at the only restaurant where you eat A La Carte was like a toast so hard, and when checking out early and leaving the resort late, If you need to take a shower at the changing room for this purpose, you will have to take a cold shower. But the island is beautiful, small, like in a movie. But lacks training and is far from a good service although the receptionists and manager smiles and understand the bad comments.

The services at Malahini Kuda Bandos was very poor to say the least. There was never enough bath towels in the rooms and you have to continue to call hotel reception for towel change. They rationed water in this island, you have to pay for water once you use up 2 bottles of water in a day. The only thing we liked was the island had a lot of water sports activities so that was nice to see.

I spent a wonderful holiday here. I would like to thank Ramesh, Kanna and Nikku for their services. The room was very clean. The food was also very good, especially if you try the specialities of the Blue bar. Also, try the cocktails on the list ;-) The sea was amazing, but remind to bring with you water shoes! Love the nature on the island and the animals. The place is also near Malé, so the boat trip from the airport took only 20 minutes. Great to have the gym in front of the ocean! Lots of Russian tourists, few people from Europe! I kindly recommend this place, very good quality.

It was a small island, but at no time was I ever board. I spent plenty of time just relaxing, but I went diving for the first time, snorkeling with stingrays, and they had a bunch of other options available. You can be as relaxed or as adventurous as you want. I would definitely recommend.

The Malahini Resort is a gem because of the staff working there. They made my stay very enjoyable and memorable After 2 days of traveling from US to Maldives, I arrived early and was checked in into my room early. Inthi and Nyaz were Very accommodating. Inthi stole my heart with his humor and mad dancing skills; he leads a Sunday Zumba class on the beach. He is one of the nicest people I’ve ever met and made my day every day with his positive attitude and infectious smile. I booked a Garden room, but because of some construction noise was upgraded to a private villa with no extra charge. This was a perfect gift for my birthday. Thank you to the front manager for making it happen! The resort staff celebrated my Bday with me and made me feel special The natural beauty of the island and marine life are breathtaking. Every day I was watching colorful fish, harmless sharks and sting rays from a pier. Life cannot be better than that! Recommend to bring water shoes since there are too many dead coral pieces on the beach and in the sea. I only booked breakfast and it was delicious but mostly with same food choices. However, the Blue bar provided varitery of food for my early dinner. The chef prepared food with highest quality and the bar staff was excellent!!

Used it as a layover between liveaboards, suits well for the purpose, reasonably priced, transit is short and not particularly expensive, for Maldives. Rooms are nice, no soundproofing thou. For romantic holidays, better go elsewhere, here all is rather average.
