Should be called Charge Island Resort. Maybe it's because I am American, but when you book a room in the states you are accommodated to a certain degree unlike here where they charge you for every little thing, even for a glass of water. I'm actually surprised they don't charge you for breathing the air here. Asked if a late checkout was available for an hour which it was, but wanted to charge me 160 USD to check out 1 hour later. Food is 4x the price than the states 100x compared to the main island in Male. The Seafood buffet is 100$ USD per person and I am from Las Vegas so that price is pretty steep and not even restaurant quality (just some random guy slapping seafood on a grill). The reason they can get way with this is because you are literally stuck on their island resort and if you want to rent a boat to get to Male where 1 USD is 15.5 MVR they will charge you a boat rental of 300$$$!!!!!USD!!!!!! I recommend just saving the headache and checking in to a Four Seasons or a Hilton. You get what you pay for so it is what it is. I will say that the Water Villa view and beach are breath taking, but the way they charge you for simple accommodations that should be complimentary just killed the mood.
