Soneva Fushi

Absolutely amazing experience. The service was impeccable and friendly on a pristine island with much to do and pretty damn good food. Snorkelling and jetski was wonderful, and I much enjoyed the multiple restaurants I had the pleasure of visiting. Siri was always exceptionally nice and helpful, and the staff always went above and beyond to make our stay memorable (even gave us a cake on the final day!). 10/10, worth every cent.

We spent a magical 4 nights and 5 days in a Water Villa for our honeymoon in June 2024, and the time went by entirely too fast. We were initially torn between Soneva Jani and Soneva Fushi, but we chose Fushi’s Water Villa due to the seagrass issues at Jani at the time and it turned out to be the absolute best decision. Our butler, Saeed, looked after us so wonderfully and went above and beyond to ensure we had a truly happy honeymoon. My husband and I have already promised each other that we will be back for our 5th anniversary! Next time, we definitely want to book a much longer stay, bring some DVDs to enjoy a movie at Cinema Paradiso, and go on more snorkeling trips. The only downside to our stay was that 'Out of the Blue' was under construction while we were there, so we were unable to try their famous sushi. It was quite disappointing that the resort did not provide any appropriate communication, alternative arrangements, or gestures of compensation for the guests regarding the closure of such a major dining venue. Aside from that communication issue, it was still a beautiful and memorable trip.

Soneva Resort has always felt less like a destination and more like a dream I’m still chasing. I haven’t had the chance to stay there yet, but everything I’ve seen and read about it makes it seem almost unreal—like a place where luxury, nature, and peace exist in perfect balance. From the iconic overwater villas to the “no news, no shoes” philosophy, Soneva isn’t just about comfort, it’s about an experience. The idea of waking up to endless ocean views, having a private pool, open-air bathrooms, and personalized service sounds incredible. What fascinates me even more is their focus on sustainability—eco-friendly luxury that doesn’t compromise on indulgence. What makes this place even more special (and a little painful 😅) is the price. A stay at Soneva literally costs around my entire CTC, which makes it feel both aspirational and slightly out of reach—for now. But that’s also what makes it a dream worth working toward. One day, I hope to experience it for real—walking barefoot on white sand, watching a movie under the stars, and finally understanding what true luxury feels like. Until then, Soneva remains on top of my bucket list.

The absolut best Words cannot truly describe how special Soneva Fushi is. It's a collection of perfect little moments. It's the scent of the plants as you cycle its lanes, it's those vivid aquamarine blues and the most wonderful food. It's the most attentive service and the way they make you feel there. Totally seamless, deeply relaxing stay ❤️ Just a little tip if you like gyms & training. They have two gyms, one indoors and the other outdoors, both very free weight / bar intensive, with just two machines. So if you're a heavy user, specially of the crossfit-ish style Jungle gym, bringing your own gym gloves from home might help
