Reviews and Ratings
Our recent stay at JA Manafaru felt like a slice of paradise, with gorgeous overwater bungalows and some of the best food we've ever tasted. The staff were mostly attentive and friendly, making for a wonderful experience, although the journey to get there and the disconnect between service expectations and actual all-inclusive offerings left a bit to be desired.
Our stay at this resort was nothing short of extraordinary! From the moment we arrived, we felt pampered and taken care of. The rooms were luxurious and offered breathtaking views, while the dining experiences were simply phenomenal. It was also nice to have a range of activities available, although some of them could be a bit pricey. Everything was very well organized, making our vacation feel seamless and enjoyable.
My experience at the resort was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. The service was exceptional, with attentive staff ensuring we had everything we needed to celebrate our special occasion. The meals were truly outstanding, and every dining experience felt memorable. The location is a bit remote, which adds to the serene atmosphere but requires careful planning for travel. Overall, the stay exceeded my expectations, and I can't wait to return.
Staying at JA Manafaru was an unforgettable experience that truly felt like paradise on earth. The staff's warm hospitality made us feel incredibly welcomed from the moment we arrived, and the breathtaking natural beauty of the island added to our magical stay. The rooms were spacious and luxurious, though the dining prices were quite high.

My stay at the resort was a dream come true, with breathtaking views and an incredible atmosphere that embodied the essence of paradise. The beach suite was fantastic with private access to the beach and a lovely pool, perfect for unwinding with family. While the service was top-notch, I did find the dining experience quite hit-or-miss, especially with the high prices. Overall, it’s an unforgettable getaway, but prepare your wallet for the food costs.
