Vilamendhoo
Vilamendhoo Island Resort is surrounded by a beautiful lagoon and long stretches of white, sandy beach. Better yet, it has an outstanding house reef for keen snorkellers. It is a facility rich island if you are looking for more to do.
This relaxing island is a wonderfully relaxed island is hugely popular and one of the hottest places to go. The informal island has lush vegetation and a superb underwater world in the house reef.
Our Opinion
Vilamendhoo is officially rated as a 3-star but it is one of those places that is so so much better than any star rating could suggest. With a fine house reef, a great all inclusive option, lovely simple rooms and a great range of things to do this should be at the top of your list. It is also a resort you need to book early as it’s very much a hot ticket and a late deal wouldn’t happen or would be very unlikely!
