NNonthadej🌴 Review: Dreamland Maldives (Stayed July 7–11, 2025) 🌴
Just returned from an amazing 4-night stay at Dreamland Maldives, and overall we were really impressed — especially if you love marine life and peaceful surroundings.
🐠 Snorkeling & Excursions – Absolutely worth it!
The house reef around the island is full of life. We saw nurse sharks, sea cucumbers, and even sea turtles while snorkeling close to shore.
Our favorite excursions were:
• A trip to Hanifaru Bay to watch the majestic manta rays.
• A nurse shark tour around the Dreamland reef — exciting and well organized.
🍴 Food – Delicious and better than expected
We chose the Full Board package (3 meals per day), and the buffet meals were consistently good.
Each day offered a variety of beef, pork, chicken, and fish dishes, along with rotating international options.
We were pleasantly surprised to find Thai dishes occasionally included — such as Tom Yum Chicken Soup and Thai Fish Cakes (Tod Mun Pla) — both authentic and flavorful.
💧 Note – Full Board doesn’t include water
Still water is not included in Full Board.
• A 1.5L bottle costs around $3.50 USD, which adds up over several days.
• If you prefer not to worry about extra drink charges, we recommend going for the All-Inclusive package instead.
🌧️ Weather Tip – Be cautious in July
On our departure day, a storm delayed our seaplane, and we missed our international flight.
If traveling in July (monsoon season), plan extra buffer time or stay a night near the airport before your outbound flight.
Dreamland offers a relaxing and nature-filled getaway with great snorkeling and tasty food.
We’ll gladly return — but next time, with All-Inclusive and flexible travel plans during the rainy season!
ゲゲストWe’ve travelled to many places around the world and stayed in countless hotels and resorts — some even more expensive than this — but Vakkaru is truly the BEST experience we’ve ever had.
Baa Atoll is already one of the world’s most pristine ecological reserves, and the resort’s blue holes and sandbanks are simply addictive. We could visit them several times a day and still never get enough. At any moment, you’ll find different kinds of fish swimming freely around you.
Beyond the beauty and the facilities, what truly makes Vakkaru unforgettable is the people.
Our butler Myat, the sommelier, and our roomboy Mohamond all went above and beyond, offering the warmest, most thoughtful care throughout our stay. Their kindness made all the difference.
It’s really hard for us to leave.
We will definitely be back — and without a doubt, we’ll choose Vakkaru again.
