Review of Sun Island Resort & Spa

The island is gorgeous, as always in the Maldives....

The island is gorgeous, as always in the Maldives. Big plus points are the whale shark and the manta rays. The management is very bad! The staff is so poorly trained that they do not even know the most important basics of good service (and this in the high season). In addition, nothing is advantageous for the all-inclusive customer ... Most of the minibar has to be paid for by yourself, especially the mineral water (nature and sparkling)! With badminton or fitness, most of the drinks have to be paid for by yourself.
The buffet is structured purely on Italy and Arab countries.
It is not financially worthwhile to go on holiday on this island, as there are several times more comfort on other islands for the same money (or even less!). We felt like we were on the stock exchange, investing a lot of money and receiving little in return.
A shame for the investors ... if they weren't for so many tourists, they would certainly change the concept and take an example from the other resorts ...
This is our sixth time in the Maldives and always a different resort. Take an example from Atmosphere or Ozen (already just Thulaghiri), these are real hosts and offered more than double that for their clientele!
The good reviews on the net are largely from people who do not know any other resorts. So, from experience only suitable for divers with whale shark experiences!
Hoping that management will respond. A professional could certainly help you or someone could learn the politeness and comfort!
Greetings from Switzerland and to everyone who wants to spend their holidays there.
