the location is stunning! Whatever villa you choose you'll always have a great view of the ocean! We were lucky to stay in 518, water pool villa and it was perfect! You have your little slice of paradise if you fancy some great snorkeling (right on top of the reef) and some private time. Otherwise the big main pool, just outside the main restaurant is incredible too and you can walk to the beach and jump into the ocean directly from there! The two restaurants offer a big variety of food, catering for every need! The restaurant team is so welcoming and kind. Madvi chats with everyone with her big smile, Poppy makes the best coffees, the whole team is attentive and present without forcing interactions! My wife unfortunately was not feeling great for the last two days and they were really kind, genuine and caring! 10/10! If you fancy a relaxing afternoon I can't recommend to try the Spa enough! Both Ida and Rena looked after us so well and their massages are a perfect mix of relaxation and rejuvenation! The diving center has many options for scuba diving, snorkeling and some excursions! We loved the sunset cruise, we were able to take amazing pictures and saw the dolphins too! Skip the local island tour, Marty, our guide was very informative but there is really not much to see. Also, make it clear with the reception, which discounts you can get and what is included in the offers as it was very vague and we discovered it only when we settled the bill. Overall great time!

My husband and I stayed at Mercure Maldives Kooddoo Resort for 8 nights in February to celebrate our honeymoon. We had a lovely time! We enjoyed the Alita restaurant's buffet every day (we tried Vista for one lunch and it was good, just didn't go back at all). We had a romantic dinner on the beach which was incredible. We did the dolphin excursion (totally worth it, saw a ton of dolphins), fishing excursion (I'm glad we used a voucher for this instead of paying as it was a little disappointing using hand reels out in front of the resort), snorkeling every day from our villa, and massages as the spa. A magical experience truly.

So the absolute deciding factor for me to pick this resort over all the others in the Maldives is the Tempurpedic beds listed on here, they do not have Tempurpedic beds. My wife and I have found the back pain caused by a cheap mattress can ruin a vacation. This resort has one restaurant for breakfast, lunch, dinner and all inclusive only covers the buffets and a second restaurant that requires reservation for dinner where most of the menu is included, so the "all inclusive" is really more of a partially inclusive. The first night we ordered room service, 30 hrs of travel will really take it out of you, the guy that dropped us at our room with our bags said the food would be covered with the all inclusive, but when they brought the food it came with a bill for $180. The manager was very understanding and bent over backwards to make things right for us with each complaint, she seemed to be the only that really knew what she was talking about or even really cared. one of our biggest complaints was nothing was spelled out as to what "all inclusive" included. the manager credit those room service charges and told us to go sign up for the sunset cruise tour, it sounded like it was included the way she said it... it was a good tour, then we got back and they handed us a $250 bill. The property and rooms were beautiful and peaceful but the lack of communication was stressful and if you dont eat the buffet its $30 for a burger. ultimatly I wish I would have chosen a different resort.

Wow! This resort was absolutely amazing! It was our first time in the Maldives and this place did not disappoint. We snorkeled, hung out by the pool, scuba dive (no prior experience), jet ski, and had professional pictures! There is so much to do you can do a different thing everyday. Staff were great and kind and so helpful. We were especially surprised when we not only had help when we arrived to the airport but when we left as well. They were extremely accommodating and made our stay amazing. Gracia was our dive instructor and she was great and knowledgeable! She made diving a great and easy experience. We had massages on our last day and it was so relaxing and a great way to end our trip. Overall it was an amazing experience and we will be back!

Beautiful property and overall the staff were so amazing. The food was amazing and the view, beach and pool are perfect. The over water bungalows are definitely very special. We had a really bad experience at check in when we were told we had to have booked the domestic flights through the hotel and I had booked through the airline, I didn’t think this was clear from the outline in Expedia but it also shouldn’t have mattered, the check in manager Hoodhi was so rude and patronising so it wasn’t a great start. The other thing was we were travelling for our honeymoon and it was delayed due to having cancer after our wedding and they were not going to offer the honeymoon benefits (because the wedding was 10 months ago instead of 6) which are just bubbles and some decorations so I don’t see why they wouldn’t. Seemed pretty mean. But Alisha and gadeer at the restaurant were amazing and Ella at reception was lovely and sorted it out for us.

We had a nice vacation at the resort. The water is amazing. Something I will remember forever. Within the lagoon, there were lots of corals and fish and we saw sharks, turtles, stingrays and an eel! We went on the dolphin cruise, the sandbank adventure and the snorkeling tour and we had our first scuba diving experience. They were so exciting but the staff kept us very safe. Every experience was absolutely breathtaking. We also had a couple fitness classes with the lovely instructor and a spa day which was nice. The food was ok at the buffet. It’s a bit of hit or miss. The food at the Vista was lovely. I had a couple of meals there. The staff were all nice and helpful. It was the most luxurious and fun vacation I have ever had.

This place was wonderful. We booked a sunset-facing overwater villa with a private pool and it was a dream. The water outside the room is waist deep which is great, and you can jump between swimming in the Indian Ocean and the private pool with just a few steps. There's a second outdoor shower that connects the deck and the indoor bathroom, which is great to rinse off before entering the villa, which is pretty easy to get a bit messy otherwise with wet feet. The staff was all very kind and helpful, easy to talk to. The food is great assuming you like the day's theme. They switch it up with a different theme each night so if you're not a fan of the theme, it may not be to your liking—but you can order a la carte from either restaurant if that's the case. The hotel is a 1-2 minute gold cart ride from the airport and they take care of all the details—they even check you into your flight and drop your baggage off so you can enjoy more time at the resort—you get taken over just before your flight when it's time to board. Would 100% stay again!! A quintessential Maldives stay.

Stayed for 6 nights, one of the best hotels I have stayed in. The magnificent experience started when I arrived to Male airport and found a representative of the hotel waiting for us. He took our bags and checked us in the airport lounge so that we could wait for the connecting flight. He took our bags and passports and checked us in to the connecting flight while we were had some coffee in the lounge. We arrived at kooddoo island and found another representative who took us directly to the hotel and in few minutes we were checked in and in our rooms - everything was very smooth. During the whole stay everyone was very polite and extremely professional. I went to the diving centre and met Ezra, who went above and beyond for us. We planned a few dives. The location is one of the best for scuba diving. I done a Shark point dive, which was a once in a life time experience. In addition, the hotel food was very nice, multiple varieties. I felt extremely sad to leave. Even after we left, the hotel arranged a Malé tour for us as we had some time to spare in Malé. I highly recommend this hotel.

It would have been less shocking if the service charge and GST rates are informed beforehand. Aircon in villa not cooling enough, a tad warm. But overall, the stay was nice. View on overwater sunset villa was breathtaking.

We snorkeled, hung out by the pool, scuba dive (no prior experience), jet ski, and had professional pictures! There is so much to do you can do a different thing everyday. Staff were great and kind and so helpful. We were especially surprised when we not only had help when we arrived to the airport but when we left as well. They were extremely accommodating and made our stay amazing. Gracia was our dive instructor and she was great and knowledgeable! She made diving a great and easy experience. We had massages on our last day and it was so relaxing and a great way to end our trip. Overall it was an amazing experience and we will be back!

Beautiful property and overall the staff were so amazing. The food was amazing and the view, beach and pool are perfect. The over water bungalows are definitely very special. We had a really bad experience at check in when we were told we had to have booked the domestic flights through the hotel and I had booked through the airline, I didn’t think this was clear from the outline in Expedia but it also shouldn’t have mattered, the check in manager Hoodhi was so rude and patronising so it wasn’t a great start. The other thing was we were travelling for our honeymoon and it was delayed due to having cancer after our wedding and they were not going to offer the honeymoon benefits (because the wedding was 10 months ago instead of 6) which are just bubbles and some decorations so I don’t see why they wouldn’t. Seemed pretty mean. But Alisha and gadeer at the restaurant were amazing and Ella at reception was lovely and sorted it out for us.

We had a nice vacation at the resort. The water is amazing. Something I will remember forever. Within the lagoon, there were lots of corals and fish and we saw sharks, turtles, stingrays and an eel! We went on the dolphin cruise, the sandbank adventure and the snorkeling tour and we had our first scuba diving experience. They were so exciting but the staff kept us very safe. Every experience was absolutely breathtaking. We also had a couple fitness classes with the lovely instructor and a spa day which was nice. The food was ok at the buffet. It’s a bit of hit or miss. The food at the Vista was lovely. I had a couple of meals there. The staff were all nice and helpful. It was the most luxurious and fun vacation I have ever had.

The best hotel I have ever visit, the beach was so clean and nice, rooms great ether water villa or beach villa, love the swimming pool In my room was huge, main swimming pool was really big, food was so delicious, staff was helpful and wonderful, manger was so kind and visiting us every single day to make sure we are happy, sunset bar the beauty of the resort, spa was so relaxing and price of treatment was so cheap compared with other resorts, therapist Naomi was the best to make me relax and ready to sleep, the family villa was big enough for more than 10 persons with big huge swimming pool, diving center was amazing we went to see turtles and we so sharks and dolphins, the privacy was 100%, beds so comfortable, shampoo smalls so nice, pool bar was really nice to see the sunset although the sunset water villa, they are the best resort ever, if you didn’t visit yet you have to.

This place was wonderful. We booked a sunset-facing overwater villa with a private pool and it was a dream. The water outside the room is waist deep which is great, and you can jump between swimming in the Indian Ocean and the private pool with just a few steps. There's a second outdoor shower that connects the deck and the indoor bathroom, which is great to rinse off before entering the villa, which is pretty easy to get a bit messy otherwise with wet feet. The staff was all very kind and helpful, easy to talk to. The food is great assuming you like the day's theme. They switch it up with a different theme each night so if you're not a fan of the theme, it may not be to your liking—but you can order a la carte from either restaurant if that's the case. The hotel is a 1-2 minute gold cart ride from the airport and they take care of all the details—they even check you into your flight and drop your baggage off so you can enjoy more time at the resort—you get taken over just before your flight when it's time to board. Would 100% stay again!! A quintessential Maldives stay.

Stayed for 6 nights, one of the best hotels I have stayed in. The magnificent experience started when I arrived to Male airport and found a representative of the hotel waiting for us. He took our bags and checked us in the airport lounge so that we could wait for the connecting flight. He took our bags and passports and checked us in to the connecting flight while we were had some coffee in the lounge. We arrived at kooddoo island and found another representative who took us directly to the hotel and in few minutes we were checked in and in our rooms - everything was very smooth. During the whole stay everyone was very polite and extremely professional. I went to the diving centre and met Ezra, who went above and beyond for us. We planned a few dives. The location is one of the best for scuba diving. I done a Shark point dive, which was a once in a life time experience. In addition, the hotel food was very nice, multiple varieties. I felt extremely sad to leave. Even after we left, the hotel arranged a Malé tour for us as we had some time to spare in Malé. I highly recommend this hotel.

We had a wonderful stay. Our children took time off from work to join us on this trip and everyone had a fun time! Snorkeling is great and the adventure diving is highly commendable! The staff was always helpful and friendly. We enjoyed kayaking and paddle boarding. We took the jet ski ride and managed to see dolphins!

Mostly good. Staff are friendly. Just that when I was given the brochures in Spa and excursion earlier before the trip, I wasn’t informed on the service charge and GST chargeable. It would have been less shocking if the service charge and GST rates are informed beforehand. Aircon in villa not cooling enough, a tad warm. But overall, the stay was nice. View on overwater sunset villa was breathtaking.
