My stay in Maldives has been very special thanks to the warm welcome of the team at Hanifaru Stay. Ibrahim has contributed to ease our stay, always willing to satisfy our curiosity.(snorkelling, island trips...) Hasmat who is in charge of rooms and restaurant service is always ready to help and available at all times, night and day, always pleasant to the customers and very professional. Azat is the top 1 chef in Maldives Island, varied cuisine and always tasty.(he even prepared a birthday cake!), he deserves a medal. Wachim is a great waiter, very helpful and constantly taking care of the customers, his smile and kindness are precious. Zaayan was taking us to all kinds of places, night…
