We took our annual vacation to this lovely resort last August. We were taking a gamble because it's rainy season during August. After asking on the message board and reading the reviews we decided to do it. So glad we did!

This was our first time in the Maldives. From the moment we arrived in Male we were whisked away into JA Manafaru lounge waiting for our sea plane. We had 3 suitcases missing from our connecting flight from Dubai to male! I was rather annoyed...More

It´s quite hard to explain all the things you get to see and feel during our stay in the resort. We think this is a destination that deserves to be reviewed as complete and detailed as you can (because in our case, to get there...More

Dear Lisa-yogini,
Thank you for your enquiry.
Most of the Sunrise water villas have the sun on the deck from early morning until 3.00/3.30 pm. This depends to the location of the villa. The dimensions and the décor of the sunrise water villas are the same of the sunset water villas. The main difference is that the villas on the west side of the island can enjoy the sunshine till the sunset.
If a guest decides to book a sunrise water villa and wants to enjoy the sunset at the Infinity Pool and bar we offer comfortable sun lounges.
We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you to the resort soon.
Sincerely,
William Harley-Fleming
