WARNING: do not go here. Extremely over priced, terrible service, no place to get even basic items like chewing gum, boring and no local culture. Most rooms are not ocean facing either, the view is blocked by a sea wall.
Made the mistake of staying here two days. $135 charge per person one way for a boat ride from the airport. Only a 20 minute or so ride. It was $15-$20 one way with other companies to ride to mafuushi over twice the distance. And ferry to mafuushi is dirt cheap.
At check in and check out we had to wait 45 minutes sitting there and the lady was rude. Everything way too expensive. $60 for a 1 hour dolphin tour. For $25 at Mafuushi you can do a half day of boating and snorkling with gear provided and can choose from a bunch of companies. $16 for cocktails or $224 for a bottle. Food took forever to serve. Depending on where your room is you have to walk 15 minutes to get to restaurants. Can still hear rooms next to you through the wall.
Go to Mafuushi or another place, youll have more fun and save money. Was so excited to leave after 2 days. Luckily i hadnt booked a full stay. Youre basically a prisoner here forced to buy monopoly prices with really long waits.
