This is our first time to the Ayata resort and it was a wonderful experience. I booked through Expedia and Expedia offers full board package which you can add to your booking which will save you a lot of money for lunch and dinner because it will be more expensive if you pay there. The food cooked by 5 star chefs tastes super delicious and everyday they have different cuisines and options along with refreshing tropical fruits. The staff is super friendly and is always there to assist you. They also take good care of you for the whole process from airport arrival to departure.

Not a 5 star resort
We found that the resort did not meet our expectations as allegedly one of the best in Maldives (and corresponding price point): service was not good (slow and inattentive) and rooms need better maintenance (malfunctioning items). In addition, the resort is fairly far from Male, needing more than 3 hours to reach (1 hour domestic flight, 1 hour speed boat ride and at more than 1 hour waiting). We would not come back.

Ayada was ABSOLUTELY fabulous. Our family had the best time, ever. We have been fortunate to stay at some nice resorts all over the world, including in Bora Bora, but Ayada was just special. Impeccable personalized service. Right from Male to departure, they have someone to help you and treat you special at every step. Everything has been thought out. Its like their management has walked through their customers shoes and understand and anticipate what guests will need. We stayed for five nights at sunset overwater suite and it was paradise on earth. I am not sure that I will stay in Garden view villas but ocean villas might be fine too. Walkways are just so well kept and manicured. Food was awesome with lots of options and varieties. I am very picky with my dietary choices and Ayada accomodated my our needs every day and with a smile. Nest beach is out of the world. Zero degree pool, bar and beach is gorgeous. Only drawback- Ayada is too far from Male and takes several hours to get there- one hour flight from Male and then one hour speed boat ride. Wish, there was a seaplane option straight to the resort. I will highly recommend this place. Expensive but well worth it, lifetime experience and memories. Will love to visit again.

Amazing Resort with amazing and helpful staff! Our butler Burak was very helpful and understanding to all of our needs and was not over bearing at all. He helped us plan any activities we needed including a birthday dinner for my girlfriend. In which our personal cook Amit prepared delicious food that both my girlfriend and I enjoyed. Overall this place was amazing and beautiful; I would definitely come back here again!

Good resort with excellent butler service and lots of things to do on the island, great kids club and program in it. But this was our third trip to Maldives and this time we stayed in southern atolls and found that the weather it different from north atolls of Maldives with makes more windy on side of the island. We stayed in sunrise over water villa and it was always breezy. After we moved to lagoon suite and it was more comfortable as it had less wind and beautiful sunset view. Sunrise villa had older furniture with scratches and cracked bath tub with I didn’t expected to have in such luxury resort. Comparing to other resort we had have stayed before the breakfast had less selection for buffet but still was good. My husband did snorkel and said it was one of the best and right of our sunrise over water villa. Also what I would like to mentioned that if you traveling with little kids than you might find it’s hard getting there as after you land in Male airport you have to wait to domestic flight provided by Maldivian airlines and then load boat 50 min. Resort provides escort to pick up luggage and let you stay at the lounge at the airport but you still waiting couple hours. We still enjoyed staying at the resort and had good vacation.
