Club Rannaalhi Review

Adaaran Club Rannalhi is featured among the best hotels in Maldives and sits exclusively at the tip of the South Male atoll within the exotic collection of islands known as the Maldives. Its unique location offers access to pristine beaches, excellent scuba diving opportunities and a relaxed environment with easy access to the capital city of Male. Bask in the golden sun and frolic on the soft sands as you experience friendly Maldivian hospitality and explore the rich tropical wonders of a vibrant island nation during your stay.

Perfect holiday, unforgettable. Lots of attention to the last minute detail. Staff very kind. Would visit again! Saw sharks, turtles and Egal rays just snorkeling around d the island.

Maldives is superb place in that we found that Adaaran Club Rannalhi is the best place to have our honey moon, we went there is the morning hours no struggle at all Staffs help to settle the room so quick, relaxing the best place superb view had lot of picture over the view area, quality food all variety ranges i love it, sad we left so early the best place to go and enjoy it's Rannalhi.

My very first experience in this Resort with my wife brought us to an incomparable pampering from reception to restaurant and the room cleaner..They are very professional in their works..special mention our waiter Vishah.. ..the scenery were spectacular kudos to the team..ill be sharing it to my friends back home..Thanks for the experince

5 stars for the place. 1 for the staff: come to this place for a one day trip. 70 euro per person includes full day 10am-5pm, towels, sunbeds, free drinks and lunch. But at the desk they make you feel different than the other guests sleeping there; free drinks are honestly poor. Lunch menu is ok but lacks fresh fish. Unbelievable they dont serve fresh fish on an island. They can have a fishman whole day keeping fish. In other islands fresh fish is really really cheap. They cook a kilogram for 15-20 dollars sidedishes included. So overall nice experience but overpriced for what we had.

One of the most scenic place with crystal clear aqua water is breathtaking. You can enter the resort with the swings hanging on the beach where you can capture some pics. The water bunglows is just mesmerizing. White sand across the resort adds to the beauty.

An island with excellent price/performance ratio. Very beautiful beaches, surrounded by shallow snorkeling beaches, surrounded by a variety of coral fish. The water house is super beautiful, and if you can budget, you can recommend the direct water house.

You just have to reckon with the fact that the service will not have if you do not give her money. Horrible materialists. However, they do not really interest me, because it was only to eat and play on the island. The island itself is beautiful and neat. You can dive and enjoy paid activities like water scooters and massages. Overall, full relaxation. Cottages clean with air conditioning cleaning twice a day. Food sufficient because the meat can not do often is hard and stretched. Too much in it curry and other irritating belly of spices. It's better to definitely eat vegetable foods. However, the choice and abundance of food is enormous. Overall, I recommend, however, you have to remember the service if you are not used to giving tips for everything that should be in total their work then you can be disappointed

Very nice experience ..just too short.. staff is nice and friendly and Ibrahim took good care of us. Hope I can visit the place soon again

Heavenly stay. Very kind staff.
Hotel to recommend

Love everything about it, the rooms. The water villa , the widespread of veg food, polite staff, amazing n clean island. Love it tons

Very nice.. had lots of fun and enjoyed with family..

Really nice resort. Small but fill with calm and empty places to explore. Have a 24 hr bar which serve buffet snacks at three time a day and live music at night. Other than this there is a restaurant which serve buffet food for breakfast lunch and dinner. Other than these two you dont have any food option. They have one water sports hut and one for scuba divers. Scuba guys give free trial on each day for new guys. Other than this rooms are really good and spacious. They also have water banglow though quite less in number. Its a really cam and sweet place with really clean blue water.

very good place to stay..staff is also too gud but need to increase some recreation activities...

The room wasn't 100% clean, the price doesn't match with the decoration

That's an awesome place.. Room service, food, staff is awesome..

Maldivian classic style village. Plenty of space, beautiful water, simple and welcoming

The most relaxing and beautiful place and abundance of activities to do you and old or just sit and enjoy the views with a drink and a variety of meal choices for all tastes.#allinclusive.

Beautiful place ... Beautiful sea ... So much entertainment .. friendly and welcoming staff .. .. always clean rooms including the bianchera and towels .. very nice animators ... also for children ideal environment .... What about vacation unforgettable!!!!!

Breath taking view. Extremely polite staff. All requests handled immediately.
Excellent A la Carte dishes. Not very expensive.

Paid WiFi is a thumbs down. But if you want to just relax and be away from you gadgets for a change this is a boon.

I had some ear pain during scuba diving but snorkelling is a must try.

They have professionals who teach you scuba-diving and snorkelling ... Even if you don't know swimming.

Must visit for a romantic getaway !!

Great place to stay! We come for the third time with the whole family. Excellent service, very tasty food (the level has grown significantly since the last visit in November 2017), a sea of fruits, friendly staff at all levels, an excellent home reef and even a lot of entertainment, including fishing, scuba diving, evening bar programs, etc. A vivid example - in the morning they forgot the key in the room, and at the reception to go 10 minutes in the heat. The employee who cleaned the area right there on the mobile phone called our room cleaner and after 5 minutes he opened the room to us. For children are great. On the eve of departure, the hotel presented us as a regular customer a dinner with seafood on the beach, and it was beyond praise. A small tip will provide you with a cosmic-level service. Do not spare money. The staff is often visiting and works for 100-200 dollars.

One of the best resort in budget category. Everything was smooth. The welcoming check in was super fast. Staffs are nice. Good food . Good rooms.good place to do snorkeling

Spectacular for everything! From the welcome to the sea, beach, services. All.

The accommodation was good, a variety of good food and the staff were very helpful and pleasant. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay.

It is a very good experience for both the staff and accommodation. Is a trip that makes us very impressed

Wonderful place, I recommend all a dip in this paradise.

Had a great.. Life long experience... Good Land property with sea facing villas and has extremely supportive resort staff....

We have been on our honeymoon guests of this fantastic structure .... it was all fantastic but the Italian chef who made us feel at home every day at Camilla, who welcomed us very well and followed us at every step, was a special praise. and to end Michela and Michele of the animation fantastic in everything .... engaging and above all very nice the real surprise of the island have been them !!!

Perfect location for snorkeling and excellent service provided by the staffs .

One Day Tour is wonderful !
Very worth recommending to play here~
Whether it is Buffet Chinese food, water house, overall landscaping are quite beautiful, you can take a good shot and shoot cool~
Even if we are only a day trip, we can feel the warm greetings of our employees and make our Maldives trip have wonderful memories!

Superb, would love to visit again, may be after five years or so.

The resort was excellent against all criteria. Service, quality and facilities. The food available was extraordinary, excessive choice , anyone could meet find something delicious, generous inclusive alcohol package without any drunken behaviours, rooms/ accommodation excellent, service and health options like massage excellent ..it is as advertised a luxury, boutique wellness resort!

Great stay. Everything was excellent from accommodation to food.
Saw lots fish snorkeling.
Best holiday ever.

This is heaven on earth... If you need a relaxing vacations please do visit. Spa and messages are costly. Water sports activities are available on affordable prices. Do ask for Water villas....

congratulations to the chef alessandro all very good also the staff and waiter always force naples the beautiful structure only the animation UN PO SCARSA

Nice hotel, cozy island. Very green, surrounded by reefs on almost all sides. Therefore, safe. on the one hand, where there are no reefs, small sharks swim, but they are not aggressive. Delicious cuisine, lots of fruit all the time! There are enough excursions on boats that sail from time to time to the island. The rooms are not very new, need a little repair, but not critical! All in all the rest has a nice aftertaste!

It was my first experience in the Maldives.
We stayed in water bungallow.
The island is tiny, but it arrives perfectly has views and a very nice wildlife.
The beach is beautiful with a good marine life. I advise you to bring snorkeling equipment with shoes to walk in the sea. They will love it.
As for cleanliness I have to admit that the employees are untiring, everything super clean either at the exterior level, just like in the room itself. They clean twice a day.
The food is very weak especially for those who do not like or can not eat spicy food. The whole food is spicy, with lots of spice and always with pepper. Even the options that should be "lights" or what they call Mediterranean are spicy and tasteless and without salt. It was the case of my wife who has stomach problems and spent the stay eating salad, bread and pasta.
Alerto also that all the extra activities are paid, there is free Wi-Fi in any place of the island and even the beach parties, etc are paid, which is not correct in view of the price you pay and having us all included in the accommodation more expensive.

Though a huge variety of food but mostly tasteless. You may get snorkelling kit included in your package if you are a visitor but you may have to rent the life jacket.

Good Place But people should carry some for outdoor and indoor games for more entertainment

the whole experience was perfect. i cannot say more on that. the staffs are all respectful and would greet you with their smiles. this is the dream vacation i have ever imagined.

to ADAM, my dive instructor, thank you so much for being so patient with me. thank you for boosting my weaknesses. you never gave up on me and hence, you gave me the assurance that i can make it and i did it!! thank you!!

Village very "easy" not to mention spartan: rooms with BASIC furnishings and air conditioning, the only buffet restaurant with mainly meat and pasta meals (Italian chef Eden Village), medium / low quality food, level of preservation and low mise en place, all-inclusive formula that does not include international cocktails and bottled drinks. Beach equipped with beds available for a lower number of guests, although each room has its own beds which the guest can move (identified with the room number). Breakfast until 9 o'clock. Shaded areas (umbrellas / gazebos etc) non-existent, Beach court available, live music until 9.30 pm, other kind of (organized) non-existent entertainment, as other non-existent activities (table football / table tennis / billiards etc). Nautical activities available for a fee. Swimming beach only on one side and sloping quickly, mediocre accessibility due to the rocks already present on the shore, no pool.

I had a wonderful time here. The water bungalow is amazing. The staff is nice n co-operative . I would like to come over again.

Great experience And well staff smooth check in and check out,I love this place

Average resort 3 star resort, Food was ok. Accomodation was old but maintained. Not much of lagoon area for swimming. But good for diving I've been told. However staff were uninformed of procedures rules etc.. We were told we would get a free Hi tea, also confirmed later by Front Office Manager. But he was suddenly missing when we came to settle our bills.And reception had not been informed. So had to pay for the "free" tea @ $7 per pax.
One of our group's cap fell into the sea. Could have been easily recovered by repositioning the idle speed boat. But staff just let it go. .
Sorry guys cannot recommend your resort for $300 per dbl we paid. Can do better. Better value for money elsewhere.

Such a warm welcome by the hotel. Everything is perfectly arranged . Staffs are very friendly. Good rooms nice view of ocen. Welcoming and check in was smooth. Extra ordinary service

Great hotel, very good food, very good for snorkeling. The good cocktails for a fee 12 dollars. These should be included in the all-inclusive.

cozy hotel, good varied food, beautiful sea world, there is something to see, friendly staff.

Its a very nice place where u can find everything u need for a relaxing holiday! Staff is absolutelly kind and they Will do anything u need for u to be confortable.

Great place :) worth the money you can really rest and relax :)
I RECOMMEND :)

The island is beautiful, and every shot is a desktop. I tried deep dive, snorkeling, saw sharks and beautiful fish, and went to the special island to play. Going to know the beauty of the island is even more beautiful than the opposite five-star island.
Bar's meal tastes like a meal, the service is very warm. In the evening, listen to the singer singing and counting the stars... This is the standard for the holiday.
I must praise Ricki at the front desk, the beautiful Chinese MM, and help us solve many problems.

We had an absolutely lovely stay here. We chose this place based on the reviews and I just wanted to give some balance to them.

The room:
We had a beach view on the second floor. We were away from the bar so it was nice and quiet.

The bed was firm so I didn't sleep that well but not sure if all rooms were like that.

The shower had low pressure and not much hot water.

Other than that the room comes with TV and AC and fresh water each day (we just filled our water from the bar to save plastic)

The staff:
They are just awesome. So nice and friendly. They join in for games of volleyball and soccer on the beach.

WiFi:
Only in the commen areas which is good because you get out of your room but bad because everyone is just on their phone there.

The Beach:
The sand is nice with a bit of dead coral in parts. They have sand bags made of plastic which break up into the water which isn't great. Also most of the coral around the island is dead which is a shame.

Sealife:
This was the highlight. We saw small Reef sharks, turtles, 4 large stingrays and smaller ones and a host of fish. It was amazing. The snorkelling trips are expensive at $110 USD for two and the coral doesn't get better but you may see more sealife (we also saw dolphins in the distance when we did it).

The food:
As a vegan they had a bit of a selection. Mainly Sri Lankan food which we loved and changes daily so it's ok but I can see some people getting bored, specially if you just came from there. They also miss-label a lot of the food so keep an eye out and there isn't any dessert options.

Transfer from airport:
The $300 USD water taxi seemed to be the only way to get there.

The drinks:
We were on the all inclusive package. The cocktails used a lot of cordial instead of fresh juice so weren't great. We only had a couple of drinks a day but I would have been more than happy to have gone without it if I had known what they were like.

Events:
There was regular games of volleyball and soccer which was great to meet the staff and other guests. Lots of fun.

As you can see from my photos it is an amazing place but it's hard to compare without knowing what other resorts are like since there are several hundred to choose from.

I am in love with this place. You must visit this country at least once in your life time.

This is a nice resort to stay in maldives. So great stay...awesome staff and very co operative staff....thank you for a good stay...!!!

wonderful place where u can enjoy nature ,beach and spend amazing time

It's my third time arriving to Adaaran Club Rannalhi the service here from your arrival to departure is exceptional the staff is really helpful and water sports charges are really good from sunrise to sunset cruises friendly staff all through out the resort and the buffet has various number of food will promote it to anyone to get the true experience of Maldives on a fare budget

Beauty of the nature with happy staff and good service

the service was great. we got a quick and early check in, breakfast delivered to our villa after our morning snorkel.

The villa was clean although it could be touched up a little. A pity the corals beneath the villa were all dead but the clarity of the water made up for that. Lovely sky lit up by an abundance of stars at night.

The only bad point is the food.. we got the all inclusive package, but the food was not so good. We had the same fish for 4 days , only had a different fish on our last day. The pasta was bad by italian standard although it was cooked by an italian chef. taste was soso... but they were kind enough to give us late check out. overall , a wonderful stay at the resort.

Impressive place for the lovers of the snorkel, we had the luck of hoping in a water villa, a luxury, highly recommended!

I just love this place and I enjoyed my life magic moments on this place .

This place is the best Maldives resort you can imagine.
-Starting with the travel. If you take a correct package and every penny spent is worth it! You will get a airport transfer via a jet boat to this resort. It s a 45 min journey and right from here you will start falling in love with Maldivian beauty.
-reaching the resort was yet another experience! Walk in to a pradise I must say. Cool beach breeze and warm welcome by the staff goes hand in hand!
-Even the standard rooms r spacious and has every service you would need thru your stay! The beach view is just few steps away.
-The food is just amazing, vegan friendly and no complains! The vast spread of variety will leave you with many options to choose from! The bar counter has amazing cocktails to feel the tropical bliss.
-they gave us a free 5 star upgrade to give cherry on the top!
-Abbie was the one answering all our questions all the time, she is polite and a go to friend on a new island! Cheers

Looking forward to visit again :)

I visited the resort for one day and I couldn t e happier about it!!!!!

I came to Rannalhi for work, spent two days one night on the island. Having the experience on Fushi island by Adaaran before hand, Rannalhi gave a different feel with a pleasant stay.

Beautyful resort and friendly staff specialy bar staff

Great resort good service. Excellent staff. Everything was amazing
