A wonderful stay on this small island. The staff were outstanding, our villa great, the restaurant food and bar excellent. We were a minute to the beach and snorkelling and a short stroll to the beautiful restaurant setting. Our first time in the Maldives, but we think this place is just right.

Everything is absolutely perfect: the hospitality, the service the food, the rooms, the beach, all. only thing stopping me tl give this a perfect 10 is the fact the island ( i assume) wants to be orientated towards family friendly, but it went overboard. It was full of toddlers, a mean i have never seen so many toddlers in one place in any hotel in my life. As the island is very small, you can't have any place to hide from them. It would have been better if they would at least split the island in half: one side family friendly and the other for couples. At least the couples can have some quiet.

Best Island reef in the Maldives
This island is a gem when it comes to marine life; some of the best snorkelling I've ever had worldwide, period, and I snorkelled and scuba dive in a lot of places. Half of the reef is in excellent condition, and for a Maldivian island this is pretty spectacular. This was my 5th time in the Maldives, I first came in 1997, and this is the best island I stayed. No water bungalows, motorized sports, or useless luxuries, absolutely great. this is what a Maldivian island should be. Great Spa, very good beach Bungalows, excellent service, and overall decent food (just a bit repetitive at times). Take your snorkelling gears (or get it on the island free of charge) and you will enjoy Turtles, Black / White tips and Nurse Sharks, sting and eagle rays, and of course all the usual suspects to be found in the Maldives. We stayed in Angsana for 7 days, and didn't even feel the need to scuba dive. Thanks to all the staff, we had a great week, and I can assure you that if I travel back to the Maldives, I will stay at Angsana Ihuru.

We booked 2 villas with whirpools for a 3 night stay for 4 adults and 1 child. The rooms are old and hence a bit worn out and dated. Fairly basic amenities and not certainly 5 star by any standard. The jacuzzi didnt work the first night so we called someone to fix it which they did. It worked for a day and then again broke down.... and this time we just left it alone. The staff are good though and do their best to accommodate you. its a very small resort so there is only one restaurant and a bar and the food choices are fairly limited with just a few types of cuisines. The reef is cool and snorkeling around the reef is great! Other water sports activities are fairly limited . Scuba is only for certified divers and after a couple of days you run out of things to do and also for cuisine choices for food....

Good resort close to Male.
Angsana is an older resort, so the rooms are a bit dated, but they are very clean and everything was still functional. Food is very good and staff are exceptional. A lot of fish on the local reef. Best rooms 38-28 for great sunset view. 1 is next to the restaurant, the garden of 46 has not much privacy and 40 to 46 have less beach in front of the room. WiFi is slow.

Look forward to returning
Amazing resort. Beach is very quiet and private given the small size of the resort and the fact that each villa has its own beach area. Good activities for free (snorkeling, kayaking, yoga, etc) and also a good assortment of reasonably priced guided activities offered by the resort. Food at the resort and the neighboring Banyan Tree island is very good. Service is outstanding and people really go out of their way to make sure you are happy and well taken care of.

Excellent 7 days in the first week of December
Overall excellent. Our objective is to relax for one week and enjoy the sunshine and the white sand beach. We chose this hotel because of 5 reasons : 1. house reef 2. cosy accommodation (room size 57 sq. metre with ocean view, and very clean) 3. transport to Male airport via speedboat 4. food choice includes Asian choice 5. total spending be within US$6000, including all meals and drinks, accommodation, air ticket, speedboat. Angsana Ihuru has met all our needs. We do snorkelling (snorkel mask and flipper are free for rent), relaxing under trees while listening to music (the hotel provides an USB MP3 player), island hopping (free hop to the next island every day), table tennis and playing chess.
