He and the rest of the hotel staff truly take pleasure in providing the very best service, with an emphasis on the details and going the extra mile.” Kiera K. “We are at the tail end of a glorious week spent at Gili Lankanfushi. What an amazing place. The villas are huge and the whole place is breathtakingly beautiful. I had to pinch myself many times to make sure this was real. We saw so many amazing fish, sharks, stingray and other sea creatures just outside our villa. It was an amazing experience. It is definitely expensive but worth every penny you pay. If you ask me to pick the best thing about Gili, it is people who work there. They go out of their way to make your stay unforgettable.” Melhj "I have been many times to Maldives, but Gili Lankanfushi was without any doubt the best hotel! Elegant but wild, Romantic but friendly... and the food was particularly delicious, every night a different type of cuisine! The best place ever!" Carola B "The reviews don't do this place justice. It truly is the most amazing place on earth. We have travelled all around the world and stayed in many places and Gili Lankanfushi is by far our favourite. The facilities are almost as amazing as the staff and service. We cannot recommend this place high enough!" Aaron R.
