Park Hyatt Maldives Hadahaa

All staffs were so nice and kind. We were very satisfied all-inclusive food and drinks~

Too far from Male international airport... but it’s worth to get there.

how it felt like you were the only one on the island

Couldn't really fault anything

This island has just 50 villas (although the island is relatively small), which is much less than other resorts on the Maldives. The implication is that each villa has direct ocean access (and almost all villas except nearly 5 have a beach), and the beach is not overcrowded (in fact, we have seen only a few people on the beach). For just 100 guests they have a lot of sunbeds and gazebos, so there's always a place to lay down. They have two public freshwater pools and most of the time nobody is swimming in them. They have an enormous number of employees on the island: about 200 employees for 100 guests. I'd say they have too many employees. The implication is that they do room cleaning twice a day (WAT?) and there is always available waiter in the restaurant. They even have a doctor on the island (my ear was clogged, and surprisingly they didn't charge me for visit). We had a full board, and the food was very good and a very good choice. The island is far for Male but the transfer is organized perfectly. You can rent snorkelling gear or kayak for free (and transparent kayak for just $25). Generally, the island exceeds expectations: it's much better in real life than on photos.

The internet barely works. A couple of hours each day it doesn't work at all. Obviously, people don't go the island for browsing the nets, but I wanted to work a little. Even if you buy a full board, you still have to pay for drinks (even water). It's not too expensive ($7 for coke or a bottle of fresh water, it's not too much, but still unexpected). The place feels like a financial minefield. E. g. they offered us to have dinner at the beach instead of the cafeteria and charged $200 for the same food we could eat for free. In the end, we have spent only $500 extra, but I guess most guests spend more. Once we ordered a dessert after dinner and asked if we could eat it in the room, and some employee said that we have to eat it in the cafeteria. Likely because they charge extra $30 for a dinner in the room, but it is still mean. I once jumped into the water from the pier (it was high tide and the water was deep and clean), and immediately an employee came and told me that it's prohibited because it's dangerous. For god sake, they have an employee constantly watching the pier, why can't that employee check that people jump where and when it's safe instead of prohibiting.
