Search hotels in Raa Atoll

We chose the Maldives for our 10th wedding anniversary trip. Among the numerous hotels and resorts in Maldives, our choice was the standard huruvalhi. This is because for us, The Standard has always been full of pleasant and enjoyable times. Beautiful natural environment, emerald lagoon, colorful corals and fish, blazing sun, hot but not humid air, blowing breeze, appropriate lounge music, sensible interior design and furniture arrangement, The Standard’s unique mood, friendly staff smiles and Even the greetings, our 3rd The Standard was fantastic. Although this place is located in a place where you have to take a seaplane, all procedures from Male Airport to hotel check-in are carried out under the guidance of staff. The seaplane fare is reasonable, and if you trust the guide, you will arrive at the hotel before you know it. No hassle at all. We arrived early in the morning, but were quickly assigned a room thanks to the friendly staff. I would like to say thank you to Eva (Korean) who was in charge of us. I was especially grateful for the attention to detail that made it possible for me to have a hassle-free stay during my stay. Even though she was busy with work, her willingness to always smile brightly and kindly and tell us even one more thing to satisfy customers was impressive. I think she will be able to play an even bigger role as the Korean market expands in the future. We were on an all-inclusive meal plan, so we had fresh, delicious food and cocktails for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We mainly used kula for breakfast, todis for lunch, and enjoyed Beru, BBQ shak, guduguda, and romantic dinner course for dinner. Every meal and menu was impeccable and I was amazed at how fresh the ingredients were sourced from a small remote island in the Indian Ocean. Each restaurant had its own unique atmosphere and taste, and especially the mood at sunset will remain as a truly good memory.

Great island-wide resort. It has 3 restaurants one Asian (beautiful new building at the beach), one Mexican (build on the water) and one topic restaurant. There is a nice bar with daily changing events happening like movies night or karaoke. What impressed me the most was the kindness and engagement of the staff. I have bean in many very good hotels and that one was exceptionally well cleaned, even two times a day. We really did not miss anything! The beach the water the diving, the food, everything is 10/10. Arriving and departure went seamlessly through, perfectly organized by the hotel and the service staff.

All-Inclusive for all guests. Also lot of excursions are part of the complementary package and only extraordinary add-ons are chargeable. Different lunch and dining options as there are 3 different restaurants besides the main restaurant (buffet). Villa (Beachvilla incl. pool) - amazing!! Pictures don't lie - dream location.

Breakfast and dinner and cocktails

We spent quite some time researching on where to stay for our honeymoon and had absolutely the most amazing time with Emerald Furaafushi! The resort is newly renovated and opened just a couple months ago so everything is new and in good condition. We stayed in both the beach villa with pool and water villa with pool and they were sooo nice for chilling privately. Food was high quality - I had the best wagyu burger at the Beach Grill and the seafood was so fresh and delicious (loved the wahoo tartare and confit, the grilled prawns and tuna..) at all the outlets! Mediterraneo was great and the buffet restaurant Aqua offered a good selection of delicious choices with different themes each night of the week. Eclipse bar was a nice overwater bar with sunset view! They had over 80 labels of alcohol available. Needless to say the scenery is amazing. We snorkelled around the house reef, took out a glass boat, did stand up paddling and kayak. The sea is so clear and turquoise! However I think the most amazing touch that made the experience so perfect was the staff there. Their hospitality and friendliness just blew us away. Every single person has been so kind, and apologies for not being able to name everyone. First off is our villa host, ELITE, who has been the most helpful, kindest and dedicated person taking care of our every whim and request since our arrival! He is always reachable and comes check on us physically at least 2-3 times a day - super sweet!! The rooms division manager Rao, of course, who welcomed us personally at check in as well and made sure we were well taken care of. The sommelier team Joseph, Bona, Tate and Kim made sure our glasses were always full and recommended great wines for us. The bar manager Pathum and the staff at the Sunset bar and Eclipse Bar such as Rocky, Channi, Sonu and Yandy make fantastic cocktails and even made me some special off menu ones!

Our stay at the Emerald Maldives Resort & SPA was absolutely perfect — a true paradise in every sense! From the moment we arrived until the day we left, every detail was taken care of with great attention and genuine warmth. A very special mention goes to Naeem, who was responsible for cleaning our villa. He did an extraordinary job, always leaving everything spotless and surprising us daily with thoughtful touches and beautiful details. His dedication and kindness truly made our stay unforgettable. We also want to highlight Wisham, who was in charge of our stay. He provided exceptional service, always available at any time of the day to help us with whatever we needed. His professionalism and friendliness made everything so easy and enjoyable. And of course, Nabee, who greeted us every morning at breakfast with a big smile and unmatched hospitality. He always remembered exactly what we liked to drink and paid close attention to every detail — his kindness and positive energy were the perfect start to each day. This resort is absolutely deserving of the highest rating. Every moment exceeded our expectations, and it’s without a doubt an experience we will repeat.

The whole island is amazing, food excellent, we appreciated local fresh food. Trips very well organized. The view from the water villa was amazing. We enjoyed our stay better than I expected.
