Summary: The resort was friendly as well as beautiful and had the best reef we saw for our whole trip. All pick ups and transfers were on time and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble for the Secret Paradise team. I recommend Ruth and the team very highly.

Summary: Ruth did a wonderful job helping me build a great trip. I was very happy. My only regret is not staying two more night to enjoy the sand bank and Shell Island more. I recommend this company totally. I can’t remember the man’s name who met me at the airport but he was very nice and I appreciated his help.

Summary: My Guide Zaff made my week in Maafushi and the surrounding area AWESOME! The excursions were fun too! I highly recommend Secret Paradise for Budget Travelers looking for a real Maldives Experience. First I was picked up at the airport and given a tour of Male. Zaff even found me the islands best smoothies per request. I then made it over to Maafushi and enjoyed a huge room at Stingray Inn. I got to enjoy 2 really cool days of snorkeling, visiting 2 other islands, and plenty of time to chill out and enjoy the beach at Maafushi. Meals were good, the guide was great, and Ruth with Secret Paradise was excellent at accommodating all of my travel needs. 10/10 recommend!!
