Water Villa Holidays...

I reckon the house reef was the only let down compared to other places, because it was quite tidal when the tide went out it was awkward to do any decent snorkelling. Then I did some of the best Scuba diving out of the other places Ive been in the Maldives.
The place itself was excellent, really good food, plenty of choice and a good choice of beers :Dwith superb staff who genuinely couldn't do enough for you.
Also worth noting, one of our party cut his foot, which needed stitches. Doctor on site stitched it, gave him a tetanus shot and antibiotics/painkillers etc all included in the price, didn't even need to show any insurance etc

Thanks for that, we're going in a couple of weeks, can't wait!

Is there much in the way of coral cover on the reef? I've read mixed reviews, some say it's mostly dead and others that it's good. Maybe some people don't bother swimming out closer to the drop off? Do you have any room tips? We've asked for a (water) villa on the left hand side (sunset-ish) as far down the jetty as possible. I think I'm right in saying the left side of the jetty should be more sheltered from the wind now that the monsoon has turned?
 
We were in room room 203, think it was 2nd or 3rd on the left, not a bad view :)


For snorkelling we went here and followed the edge. Still saw rays, sharks etc but Mrs wasnt to keen on the drop off:D
 
Takes about 15 mins to walk round the island, coffee shop is excellent, the pool table has the worst slope ever on it, the Tom Yum Goong in the Ginger Mon restaurant is a must, and if you get a complimentary massage dont not use it!
