Maldives Honeymoon Trip

Review of Ocean Waves Inn
5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 29 Feb 2024
My wife and I celebrated our honeymoon by doing a trip to Gaffuru, Maldives for 6 days. As part of the holiday we enjoyed an amazing stay at Ocean Waves Inn. During our trip we explored the town, spent a lot of time on the Tourist Beach and did excursions. We did Dolphin Watching, Turtle Snorkelling, Beach Dinner and Sandbanks. All were very amazing and memorable experiences.

Adam was very helpful and responsive in helping to build an itinerary and experience that suited what we wanted from our trip. He was very friendly and showed great customer service while helping us plan the trip (despite a 10 hour timezone difference). He made the Sandbank trip really fun and you get to take great photos from your experience. We also tried snorkelling for the first time with Adam and he made the experience very safe and went out of his way to ensure we saw a lot of fish and turtles.

Ziyau is very down to earth and friendly. He knows everything about what makes a great tourist experience. He knows the waters like the back of his hand and we felt very safe during our excursions. He found a really good spot to watch dolphins and we saw so many. He also went out of his way to set up a really nice beach dinner for us.

Mithu, the chef, prepares fresh food that is very tasty every day. The food was absolutely amazing. It was vegetarian friendly and vegan options are available upon request. Very friendly service. Highly recommend the full board package.

Thank you to the Ocean Waves Team 🙂

We were at ocean waves Gaafaru for our honeymoon for 5 days. The experience could not get any better and was beyond our expectation.

The team is extremely professional and polite. They cater to all of our expectation and keep us informed of everything and gave us a very personalized attention.

The activities they offer are top notch. We went out for a sandbank trip which was pure bliss. Honestly the sandbank in itself is beautiful and it just got better with the experience ocean waves offer you.

Would love to visit here again sometime in the future. The professionalism you carry is gonna take you guys a very long way.

Keep up the great work and the happiness you guys induce to your guests. Hope to see you soon.

Shakil the chef , makes amazing dishes here and left us stuffed . The entire experience was fantastic.
