La isla tiene buenas zonas de buceo, está muy limpia y cuidada. Vimos tortugas, tiburones y una gran variedad de peces. El desayuno, aunque no muy variado diariamente, comidas y cenas, buenas y bien presentadas. Buen servicio y atención. Está a unos 45 minutos del aeropuerto de Male. Las habitaciones tienen aire acondicionado, ventilador y nevera. Todas las cabañas están al borde de la playa, la mejor la 1 y la 2 (si quieres ver el mar) el resto está sumergida en la vegetación y no se ve. El transporte ida y vuelta a las isla cuesta más de 210 dólares por persona, lo que es un abuso puesto que es la única forma de llegar a la isla. Además, suelen unificar viajes por lo que puede tocar esperar en el aeropuerto o salir antes de la isla. Además, mirar bien el precio, porque el impuesto "ecológico" es de 12 $/ persona y noche a pagar al llegar al alojamiento. Tiene wifi, aunque NO funciona. Tuvimos que protestar y, finalmente nos dejaron un router que compartimos, por turno, las 7 habitaciones que ocupábamos! Si no llevas algún paquete todo incluido, las bebidas (incluido el agua y cafe del bar) son bastante caras, también el uso de un kayak o las excursiones en barco. El submarinismo es especialmente caro (120$ la inmersión) y obligan a una en la playa (al mismo precio) para probar el equipo. Tuvimos muy mal tiempo durante la estancia lo que hizo que echásemos de menos que el resort tuviera alguna instalación más como un gimnasio, una sala de tv o cine (no hay tv en las habitaciones)...

Our stay at Makunudu Island was truly unforgettable! What made our experience so special was the incredible team and their genuine hospitality. Outstanding Service & Cuisine: The service staff were amazingly friendly and attentive throughout our entire stay. A special note of praise goes to the head chef, who spoiled us with delicious meals and was wonderfully warm and welcoming. Warm & Personal Hospitality: Beyond the front-of-house team, even staff members from other departments—including the finance team—took the time to chat with us, make us feel welcome, and ensure we were having a great time. From start to finish, we felt so well taken care of. The personal touch and warmth of everyone on the island completely exceeded our expectations. We had a fantastic time and can whole-heartedly recommend Makunudu Island to anyone looking for an exceptional getaway!
