Fodor's "Not for fuddy-duddies, nor for those with kids under 13, this ultra-glamorous island resort has super luxury accommodation including bi-level suites with private plunge pools, sun decks, and see-through floor windows to the ocean"
Travel + Leisure "Each of the 78 overwater and beach villas comes with its own infinity or plunge pool, and they all have curving decks that take in stunning beach and ocean views"
Condé Nast Traveler "Efforts to attract Russians (vodka bar, extensive caviar menu, chess by the pool) are working, because they're coming here in hordes"
Jetsetter "Back on shore, WET infinity pool makes a strong case for staying at the hotel with a popular bar and uninterrupted views"
Oyster "Its 75 large and trendy rooms -- many of which sit over the ocean -- come along with a picture-worthy lagoon and beach, small-but-lively pool, casual gourmet restaurants, chic bars, and the Maldives' only underground club (with a resident DJ, no less)"
Lonely Planet "Add to this three excellent restaurants, three glamorous bars, a vast swimming pool and even a private desert island for guests to use, and it’s easy to see why this is the choice of the discerning, wealthy and cool"
