Noku Maldives, Vignette Collection an IHG Hotel

It was really enjoyable

We found Noku Maldives because the resort just joined the IHG Vignette Collection and decided to stay here during for the New Year holiday. The resort is located about 45-50 mins away by seaplane from Male. We stayed at the sunset overwater villa which has direct access to resort house reef. It’s one of the best house reef we’ve ever found in the Maldives. There’re plenty of fishes and beautiful reef at the drop-off. As for the resort, the room is quite big and comfortable. It’s not a complicated layout which we found very relaxing for the stay. The island size is good for us, not too big where you can walk around easily, and not too small where you still feel very private. There’re two restaurants on the island, we like the main restaurant where they serve international dishes which are very tasty. We love listening to live music performed every night during our 4 nights stay at the restaurant which’s very good vibe. The best part of the island is definitely the staff at Noku Maldives. They’re very attentive. GM Shahid, Basil, Shekhar and their team welcomed us with great hospitality. Staffs at the restaurant are also very helpful, Amrit, Mery, Majorie, and Sujata, who we meet every day at the restaurant are very friendly and provide superb services. Also a big thanks to our island host Myra and also Andri and Afrah who talk care of us very well. Everyone at the Noku Maldives makes our vacation unforgettable. Noku staffs are really make the resort exceptional. We’d like to give special shout out to Kau, the resort representative at the airport for greeting us warmly when we arrived. On departure date, unfortunately our seaplan was delayed due to bad weather so we missed our international departure flight. The resort’s helped us arrange for the city hotel and transportation while we had to wait for the next flight departing very late at night. We’d been very well taken care of by Kau and he keeps checking on us until departure. We come back home happy and look forward to going back to Noku again.
